A SteaAne m Edina is”ine best! as the buses rolled to a halt alongside the fertile lawns of Edina High School on Sep-bemter 5, 1984, the new and returning students beheld their school with wide eyes of glimmering anticipation. Some speculated on the forthcoming year - its times of fun frolic, its periods of studious sobriety, and its moments of dire disappointment. Edina students held great expectations for themselves and their school, and they strove for high ideals while pacing themselves to be a A STEP AHEAD of all the rest. The realization of these supreme goals manifested themselves though numerous facets of Edina High School life. Yet, in order to produce achievement with pride, individuals had to work together, mind, body, and soul, thus accomplishing one huge unit force of energy pursuing a common cause of excellence. Often labeled as cake-eaters, Edina students received the ambiguous title with mixed feelings. Their innate urge to be deservedly pretentious clashed with an effort of modest recognition. Not only was there the satisfaction of being A STEP AHEAD in academics, athletics, publica- tions, and performing arts, but Edina was highly acknowledged nationwide. The ultimate award came directly from President Reagan in Washington D.C. for “Excellence in Education. In addition, the class of 1984 graced Edina High School with thirteen National Merit Semi-Finalists. As the outstanding literary arts magazine, “Images on the Wind was the recipient of the All-American award for the seventeenth time and was one of only four high school magazines in the nation to be presented with the coveted Pacemaker award.

OPENING 3 (continued from page 2) As usual, the 'prestigious Edina sports teams received much fame. Representative of the musical aspects of Edina High School was the fantasticly successful fall musical, “Guys and Dolls . The numerous achievements by individuals throughout the year added the more personal aspect. Undoubtedly, admirable accomplishments such as those proved just how indomitable F.dina really was. Upon reminiscing over the teenage years, memories of years well-spent at Edina High School become the focal point. The eminent pathos of growing up waned with the support of loving parents, concerned teachers, and caring friends. It was a time of self-realization, while diverse individuals converged and grew together to be friends. As the high school years flew by, educational goals were realized, and immense progress was made. 1984-85 proved to be a year of fulfillment, and expectations were attained over and above anyone's highest hopes.

Kids fled out of classrooms i o embark on another type of adventure: rec time. These precious hours were af-cctcd by a number of different factors. Fashions and popular crazes shaped our actions and ourselves. Publications and ' V news shows brought the world’s current events into our scope. These often startling occurrences made an impact on our every day lifes at. as well as outside of school. The EHS students kept themselves busy in a variety of ways. Band, choir, and or- chestra concerts were put on by dedicated musicians. Fine productions, such as Guys and Dolls, displayed the talents of our many actors, actresses, dancers, make-up people, sound crews, and set designers. Final performances of each were nearly always sold out. Of course, no high school-ers life would be complete without the necessary interactions with fellow students. Friends often spent time chatting, exchanging helpful homework hints, or going to the “big game” on Friday nights. Boy-girl activities at Edina were among the most popular. Homecoming, Swcet- With each new school year comes new fads and fashion, this year being no exception. Sophomores could be seen parading down the hallways dressed in the latest “punkish atirc with a few juniors and seniors following a similar new wave style. The 1984-85 school year saw the emerging of many new and unique trends . page 38. With the last day of school came the first day of freedom. Convcrtables cruised around the lakes and the scent of coconut oil wafted through the air. Blond hair became blonder, skin grew tanner; summer was in full swing. The activities of EHS students ranged from tubing down the Apple River to floating in a gondola in Venice ............................ page 8. From the very start of Fall, the spirit of Homecoming ’84 was in the air. During the week of Oct. 8-13, the school participated in numerous events to show their enthusiasm. The Coronation brought out Edina’s royalty, and the pepfest generated our excitement. A thrilling football game and the popular Homecoming Dance concluded the festivities ......page 12. heart, and Prom gave each individual the chance to dance the night away with that special someone. For many, a movie, sipping malts, or simply watching TV was a more informal way of getting to know the guy girl of your dreams. When one looked back on a 1984-1985 Edina student, one can see that their life was not just shaped by or around school, but that a diversity of other activities took place. The combination of these items put the life of an Edina High School student a step ahead of the average teenager. TV k STUDENT LIFE 7 Leah Lund. (10).

Homework and teachers were forgotten as hanging around “the Lake became the choice activity. Many Edina girls were known to use this time to work on increasing their collection of male acquaintances as well as indulging in the more traditional lake activities of swimming and achieving that “perfect” tan. Uptown was also a favorite spot to see and be seen, whether one was a radical “punkcr or an adventurous prep out for a night on the town. Movies were a favorite summer pastime; “I ain't afraid of no ghost” and “Let’s Go Crazy were probably two of the summer’s most popular lines. Devoited Prince fans were known to wait for hours in the sweltering heat to purchase coveted tickets for the opening night of “Purple Rain”. As usual, concerts were at the top of music fans’ lists of things to do. The Cars and Billy Idol were two big events: “Seeing Billy was a smashing experience, from what I can remember, said Stevie Benjamin (10). Other shows included the Psychedelic Furs, Urban Guerillas, and the Suburbs. The highlight of many students’ summer was traveling, an activity which was anticipated with enthusiasm. Some students toured the Boundary Waters or similar spots on camping trips, but others preferred journeying to such faraway locations such as Paris, London, or New York. “Being one of three guys in a group of thirty-one, I had a great time in France, commented Harlan Blumenthal (11). Some people took challenging trips to other states. On a venture to Milwaukee. Sara Stiles (12), and Jenny Berg (12) found themselves to be hopelessly lost in the wilds of Wisconsin. After many dc-sparate visits to gas stations, they finally discovered the right path to their destination. If a person thrilled to languish in the wild woods, cabins were great places to go. and even better if Mom and Dad let the kids have the place to themselves. Waterskiing. sailing, and visiting neighboring resorts were favorite cabin pastimes. For those who preferred to shield themselves from the ultraviolet rays, vegetating in front of the boob tube was another form of entertainment. Soaps, like All My (continued on page 10) These students on the French summer trip to F.urope enjoy a pent down the canals of Venice. SUMMER 9 (continued from page 7t Children , were extremely popular. Jenny’s death and Greg’s misery were shared by millions of faithful fans. Those who did not choose to view the soaps could entertain themselves by checking out the latest videos on MTV, watching a family special on HBO, or by excitedly screaming Good answer!” to gameshow participants on “Family Feud”. Everyone, undoubtedly, knew about the widely publicized ’84 Olympics. The Soviet boycott was a big issue, as was the participation of Yugoslavia and Romania. The U.S. athletes made the country proud as they went on to capture eighty three gold medals. All at once, it was time to hit the books again. Autumn breezes were in the air, as was the anticipation of the coming school year. Shopping for new clothes became a full time occupation as the big First Day came closer and closer. Finally, it arrived, and with it came the excitement of renewing old friendships as well as making new ones. From nervous sophomores to experienced seniors, all looked forward to an exciting new year at one of the many plea- I.isa Wong (12), Carrie Nolan (12), and Sarah Greenfield (12) use team effort to wash that dirt right out of their hair.

The happy King and Queen then rose to sit on their thrones, and acknowledge the applause and cheers of the crowd. After the big pep-fest there was a number of smaller celebrations, and one very important one. The Homecoming game. To start out this event, the court and a variety of interesting floats (all had to be carried on foot because of the new all-weather track) gave a parade for all of Edina. Then came the game, which was unmitigated fun for everyone, including the opposite team. With all the action and dent body declared the Homecoming to be a truly satisfying event, and the 1984-'85 Homecoming Court humorously donned track shoes, ballet slippers, and various other forms of footwear in their walk around the track. Shouts of encouragement and enthusiasm echoed from the stands as Tim Ful-ford and the rest of Edina’s cheerleaders led the fans in spirited cheers. Among favorite cheers of the crowd were “We’ve got Spirit” and “The Wave , a physical cheer. Fans were dressed in green, gold, and white and were wearing Edina buttons with the Homecoming slogan “The felines arc dyin’ ’cause th orncts arc flyin’!” Although thj i am. with captains battled hard of many.

Purple, blue, and silver decorations adorned tables, walls, and ceilings at the Edina Community Center. Confetti was tossed in handfuls about the room, creating a festive party atmosphere. The decorations were not the only things that were fantastic that night; the appearances of the students left a lasting impression as well. “The outfits were incredible,” exclaimed Jennifer Abrams (12), co-chairman of the Homeocming celebration, “and I really enjoyed giving my time to make the dance and Homecoming work As the hands of the clock approached midnight, couples filtered out in groups to talk over the dance. Some walked casually out to cars parked nearby while others with a bit more class (usually seniors) were escorted by chauffeurs to limosines, to be driven to the AM FAC or other places where people would gather and late night (or early morning) partying would begin. In the memories of many Edina students, that night and the fun of Homecoming '84-‘85 would remain for a lifetime. As one member of the student body commented, “It was a Homecoming that I'll never forget!” Debbie Kickoff leads the hornetle with the band during the A Piece Of Cake Edina Students Chuck Their Bucks What do you like to do with your hard earned bucks? While some business-minded students may choose to put their money safely away in the bank, it would be fair to speculate that a large majority would answer this question with a simple two words: spend it! Edina students seemed to use their money for a wide variety of activities along with other miscellaneous items. For most of the female population at EHS clothes were the number one expense. The desire to keep in step with the latest styles caused loads of frustration as it emptyed the every checking account in town. Guys, too, were known to blow their cash on clothes, as they realized the magnetic effect women experienced towards them while they were decked out in the latest “GQ“ styles. Other less fashion oriented students tended to fork over their bucks to have a good time. The high price of fun often included the cost of movies, restaurants, and anything else a student could dream up for the purpose of entertainment. Of course, food proved to be a major expense. At school, the a la carte line tempted hungary young students into spending their allowances on goodies such as cookies, french fries, and chicken McNuggets. Many school-oriented organizations sold candy, and this also proved to be a tempting treat. Out-of-school fast food joints like Zantigos and McDonalds were popular with the regular junk food junkies. Perhaps some of the students who chose not to spend money on tantilizing treats opted instead for dancing those calorics, off, bopping to the latest tunes. Hundreds of dollars each year were spent by individuals with the desire to have a personal copy of their favorite song album. Hopefully this has shed some light on the variety of ways Edina students spent their money. Whether it was useful, or what mom called “an absolute waste”, Edina students had fun chucking their bucks! Jenny Berg (12) saves her allowance for some new threads. Pc(c Opp (12) illcagally obtains money from a fa t bank. Sle� ie Benjamin (10) spends her dough on necessa.y weekend supplies. 18 MONEY Who do they think we are? “1 think they arc all Barbie Dolls and trendies “They’re usually not as open minded because they’re not used to the diversity that we have.’’ They're sort of stuck-up because they think they arc in a high class- in terms of money.” These quotes, taken from surveys sent to the students of Washburn and Richfield, give a general idea of the attitude other schools have dcvclopc towards Edina. Like all other schools. Edina earned (justly or unjustly) a reputation of its own- one of being “snobbish” and “closed-minded . Perhaps, the reason Edina has gained this snobbish” repute is due to other schools being envious of the school’s academic system and the standard of living our city has. Of course, some Edina students have contributed to Edina's reputation. As one Edina student (who wished to remain anonymous) put it, “Most of the people are stuck-up and fake- like the jocks, for example. Another student. Kel- ly Cathcart (10), had a different view. “I don’t think we’re all Barbie Dolls- but there are a few people who make us look that way. Besides the stuck-up reputation, we’re thought of as racist, uncultured, and protected from the real world by the shelter of our parent’s money. On the whole, most students surveyed did think of Edina in a derogatory way. However, a small percentage did give credit to the school for its athletic abilities, scholastic achievements, and a few even ventured to say that we arc “okay people and unfairly judged. The results of this survey, although critical, should not be taken too scriously-they’rc very similar to what we would say about other schools. This just about proved the statement that Edina and “Edina people were the same as people anywhere else. What is your general opinion of people who attend Edina? Good 25% Bad 46% Both 29% “They’re pretty much the same as people who attend other schools. Some arc pretty cool and some are real jerks - Washburn “Snobs” - Richfield “The girls all look like Madonna. The guys look kind of wimpy. -Richfield Do you feel Edina has a good or bad reputation? Good 30% Bad 53% Both 17% As far as schooling goes they arc good, but the people arc all so ’me’ oriented - they don’t seem to care about others” - Washburn “Bad. because everyone is rich and stuck up. - Richfield Do vou know someone from Edina? Yes 72% No 28% W'as your opinion of the school changed after vou met them? Yes 31% No 69% “Yes, I actually liked someone from Edina. I never thought I would. Washburn W'ould vou move to Edina? Yes 23% No 77% “No! No! No! Never!” - Washburn EDINA MINI-MAG 19 This is a short talc which follows the changing life style of a preppy Edina boy who is thrown out of his normal habitat and forced to survive in the fictional town of R_______. Skip Topsidcr vs. Deadhead Boot Skip Topsider woke with a feeling of anticipation. He just knew Mummy and Pops were up to something. After thoroughly searching his closet. Skip decided to wear his nice new argyle sweater along with the coordinating slacks. When through dressing, he was chic down to the last stitch on mono-grammed boxers. After shining his spiffy black penny loafers one last time, he was ready for breakfast. Bouncing down the stairs, he heard the blubbering sobs of his disconsolate father. His first reaction was, “Mummy is pregnant!” However, on entering the kitchen he sensed a worse situation awaiting him. Daddy’s business, he found, had gone kaputt. Daddy was immersed in a sea of debt that swallowed the family fortune and flooded not only their emotions but their bank account, as well, with a tidal wave of grief. The absence of caviar, fine wine, and top choice sirloin would soon become apparent. To make matters worse, Skippy’s spanking new Mercedes would have to be sold along with the mansion and private golf course. The thought made him feverish. Dark, luminous clouds announced the day Skippy and his family moved into their lovely new R______home. The duplex pro- vided adquate living space (for the dog), as Edina Withdrawal Skip Topsider rests his shiny lofcrs on his shiny Mercedes as he contemplates what he is sure will be a shiny future. well as a nice modern outdoor toilet. After attending the R_______High School for a short period of time, Skippy noticed that his style of dress was far from acceptable. He found himself being teased and ridiculed by the other guys because of his preppy paraphenalia. He decided a change was in order and resolved to empty his piggy bank and go on a big shopping spree. The next day he rode his Huffy up to Target for some heavy-duty school shopping. He found some good deals and walked away with thirteen articles of clothing, all for the small price of $12.99. Skip looks for a tic to match his shirt. Skip learns against his aging station wagon, in front of his new house and wonders what he will do that afternoon. 20 LEAVING EDINA Deadhead smiles malavcnlly as he find his very fa-voritc record by Twisted Sister . On wearing his new clothes to school, he found that his bargain shopping trip had paid off. His new outfits had put him right on the bull's-eye with Richfield fashion. All the Motley girls ran their fingers over his lush velour shirt and across his body-huggin’ Wrangler boot cuts. He soon dis-covcrd the need for a gigantic pink plastic comb to protrude from his back pocket. A Richfield man never goes without life’s basic necessities, you know. With his new, long, feathery doo, the comb often came in handy, although it was mostly a status symbol. Day after day, Skip regressed more and more deeply into the styles and social habits of R_____ culture. Breakdancing and Motley Cruc Became major influences on his mental state. Skippy Topsider changed his name to Deadhead Boot to better accomodate his new lifestyle. The sad saga of Edina withdrawal has hopefully not brought on a flood of tears, but a more mature understanding of the wide, but unfortunately, crossablc gap between Edina and Richfield. Skip and his two newest friends strut their stuff. LEAVING EDINA 21 Holiday Choir The Holiday Choir Concert brought together the school’s four choirs. Treble, Chamber Singers, Varsity Choir, and Concert Choir, to welcome the Christmas season with beautiful voices on December 13 and 14. The Choirs were directed by Mr. Robert Peterson (fac) whose talent and effort helped make the concert special to all present. The audience enjoyed it tremendously, and for the choir members, it was a magical experience. Debbie Haas (10) commented. “It was a great way to meet pcole.” Jill Nibe (10) added, “Robert Peterson was a great director to have worked with, Edina’s lucky to have him.’’ The most wonderful thing about the concert was that it kicked off the holiday season in a fun and joyous fashion. It was a truly marvelous event. Said Nibe, “When you combine three talented choirs like that, you just can’t go wrong.” Choir director Robert Peterson (fac.) tadcs a well deserved bow. Choir members practice and prepare for a fantastic concert. Holiday Band Ah. the holidays. A time for families and friends to get together. A reunion such as this is a representation of the holiday season, it seems only fitting that the Concert Band and the Varsity Band came together this year for a pre-holiday concert on December 20. The Varsity Band performed such selections as “Marriage of Figaro, “Light Cavalry,” “Compendium,’’ “Appolo March, Maestro, and “Kiddie Ballet. The Concert Band was right French horns Holt) Gustafson (12(, Das id Preis (12), and Patty I ark (12) clown around after the Holiday Band Concert. there with a response performing such pieces as “Fina'.c From Symphony in F Minor 4. “Cassacaglia in Fugue “The Klaxxon, Jesu.

Concel Band member Doufi McNaught (10) commcntcl. “Many members felt the practice was difficult, but the erd result was a rewarding expe • icnce. Together, the bands put on a wonderful concert with all tic spirit that makes the Christmas season special. 22 MUSIC Cabaret The orchestra always put on a good show and the Cabaret concert was certainly no exception. A combination of great music and humorous skits that tickled the funnybonc made the show a bonafidc hit. The program included entertaining selections such as “March of the Mcistcr Singers, “Symphony 20 in C,” “Gemini,” “Iphigcnia in Au-ljs,” “Sweet Jazz Suite,” Hunfarian Dance 6,” — Holiday for Orchestra,” “Outdoor Ovcraturc,” “Bran-denbcrg Concerto 2. and “Irving Berlin, to name a few. Probably the most popular selection performed that night was “Concerto Gross,” a parody of Concerto Grosso. which included a three piece kazoo section. There was also a special visit payed by “Supermutt (orchestra president Kristen Elvin’s (12) dog). A phone booth was not necessary for Supermutt, so long as there was a fire hydrant handy! The grand finale was a piece entitled “Christmas Festival,” a medley of favorite Christmas songs that ended the show on a seasonal note.

MUSIC 23 Concert Pops When spring rolls around at Edina High School, a young band member’s fancy turns toward Concert Band Pops. Pops, which took place on February 22, 23, 28, and March 1 and 2, was an entertaining effort to welcome the coming of spring through skits, dances, corny jokes, and musical pieces such as “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”, and “Rien-zi”. In honor of their Hawaiian tour over spring break, they also performed songs from the musical “South Pacific”. This is the 32 Pops Concert in Edina history and as in the past, a lot of hard work was put into making the show a success. Edwin Mclichar (fac), the band’s director, took on the awesome responsibility of organizing the show, and put in a lot of time and effort to perfect the project. Marian Hansen directed the choreography as she had done many times in the past. Another important factor in making the show a success was the contributions of the band members’ parents, who helped in ticket sales and ushering. There was a lot of work involved in getting the show under way. Practices were held every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from winter break on. Tim Lander (10) commented. “There was a rigorous practice schedule, and a lot of sacrifices had to be made, but I think that it was well worth it.” All that hard work was evident in the final production. Finally, the opening night arrived. Band members appeared in the band room around 5:00 in the afternoon to tunc up. The show began at 7:30. As the big moment drew near, there was excitement in the air. However, when the curtain was drawn and the lights went up, the band put aside their nervousness and concentrated on the task at hand, to put on a great concert. “This years Pops was the best ever, noted Steve Bishop (10), “We were really lucky, we had a really talented group of people.” Portraying a sneaky flasher.

The Concert Band's talents arc not just limited to playing music — but they can Polka dance as well. 24 MUSIC Trinity Edina’s music is not limited to the school’s band, orchestra, choir, etc. Outside of school, local bands formed by Edina students, such as “Trinity , provided sound that some may be looking for. Trinity”, which was formed in the summer of '82, consists of Steve Schley (10) as lead singer, Dan Diebold (9) on lead guitar, Brent Engelbert (10) on rhythem guitar, and Jon Oli-phant (10) on drums. The band began playing at Normandalc Lutheran Church, doing concerts and such, and continued to play for youth events. In 1982 the church had a senior high band playing there. The band members decided that they could do something like that, and so they used the church facilities and equipment, and they were on their way. Their music was mainly pop rock, playing songs written by the band members, or popular tunes by such famed musicians as Rush and Billy Squier. The band tried to deliver good messages. Steve Clay commented. Our goal is to play as well as we can and provide a positive message. Said Oliphant, “Our message is not ‘go out, party, and get drunk,’ just ‘be yourself.’ Steve Clay (10).

Prince Rock superstar Prince returned to his hometown of Minneapolis for the December holidays. Edina buzzed with excitement as it’s youth population readied itself for Prince's concerts. All five concerts were sold out soon after going on sale, and many Edinans were turned away after waiting for hours in the cold. Those who got their hands on tickets were asked by Prince to bring non-perishable food items for the food shelves program. The project eventually produced over twenty three tons of food. Governor Rudy The way to warm the December cold. Pcrpich declared Prince Days in honor of his efforts for the food shelves. Part of Prince’s fame is derived from his movie Purple Rain staring Prince as a local rocker called The Kid . In this semi-autobiographical film he and his band. The Revolution, try to out-jam rival band. The Time with Morris Day. An interesting note: as youngsters, Prince and Day were in a band called Grand Central . Prince seemed happy to be back in Minnesota, and those Edinans who attended the concerts were glad that Prince had come home. MUSIC 25 The Songs We Sing Backstage there was hustle and bustle. Last minute make-up touches were being applied as the sweet smell of hair gel filled the air. The feeling was electric. One could not stand in the middle of it all with our feeling excitement. After a month and a half of sometimes tedious practice. EHS put on one of its most successful productions ever: “Guys and Dolls. In this delightful show, the leads were played by Martha Usem 12). as Miss Adelaide. Rob Morclli (12), as Nathan Detroit. Brandt Slosscr (12). as Skye Master-son. and Joan Abbinatc (12), as Sarah Brown. The story took place in the I950’s, a time when the floating crap game was an important part of street life. Two gamblers. Skye Masterson and Nathan Detroit. each experienced a romantic dilemma with their dolls. Sarah Brown and Miss V «s A da hide sadly sings about how her ailing love-life is the cause of her cold. Adelaide. The clever scenery for the Hot Box Night Club provided the perfect atmosphere for songs as “A Bushel and a Peek and Take Back Your Mink. The Ha-vava” dance, performed in an exciting nightclub in Cuba, was fast and flamboyant. due to the excellent choreography of John Command. Among other mention-able highlights of Guys and Dolls was the Sewer Dance in which nine gamblers jumped and tumbled their way across the stage. The twenty-three member orchestra, directed by Robert Peterson (fack played beautifully throughout the entire performance. The lighting, make-up and stage crews, the actors, and the dedicated staff all contributed to make this year’s exemplary musical presentation. Guys and Dolls, a tough act to follow. Lingering on the street corner, the guys wait to find out the location of the upcoming crap game. Although skeptical about the real reason Skye has brought her to Cuba. Sarah enjoys her milk drink. Sister Sarah Broun tries her hardest to bring sinners to the mission. MUSICAL 27 Setting the Stage Excitement abounded, as well as some nervousness, at the auditions for this year’s Winter play, The Man Who Came to Pinner. Many of our school’s actors and actresses were present to demonstrate their ability and hope for a chance to be in the play. Those who tried waited anxiously to find out if they made it. who they would play, if their friends made it, and so on. Soon a notice was posted, and as people stood in the back of the crowd trying to get a look at the sheet, they muttered the usual comments like, “Oh, I just know I didn’t make it! Some were right, but for those who did make it, there was the thrill of being involved in a play. “The Man Who Came to Dinner, directed by Cynthia Elquist (fac.), is a play about a famous radio personality, Sheridan Whiteside (Antav Bilgutay (12)), who visits a couple. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Stanley (Mike Rubens (11)) and Martha L'sem (12)), in the small town of Messalia, Ohio. He slips on their steps and is instructed by the town’s doctor (Brian Kelly (10)) that Banjo (Brandi Slower (!2i) watches as his friend Whitesidc Ant y Bilguta (12t) ex plains his dilemma a lot of nice people. John Bush (10) adds, “Even though it was my first part in an Edina production, the other members of the cast made me feel comfortable. The final production took place on February 1st and 2nd. After weeks of weary practicing, the cast found themselves caught up in the lights and the costumes. It was then that their characters came to life. The actors really had a lot of feeling for their characters. Ben Klasky commented, “As a sophomore, it was quite an honor to receive a lead in this years play. I hope to continue to participate in future theatrical productions. Heather Gilchrist adds. “The part of Lorraine Sheldon was a real challenge for me, and something that I really had to work at, but it was worth it. It will be sad leaving the Edina High stage after three years, but all of the productions were great experiences for my future career. Marit Trclstad { li,Maggie. and Ben Klasdy (10). Bert, discuss the realtionship between the characters they portray in “The Man Who Came to Dinner. until he recovers, he is to stay with the Stanleys, where he inevitable wears out his welcome. At the same time, Whitesides’s secretary, Maggie (Marit Trelstad (12)), falls for local journalist Bert Jefferson (Ben Klasky (10)). Afraid of losing her. White-side tries to get Jefferson involved with someone else, namely friend and actress Lorraine Sheldon (Heather Rali Gilchrist (12)). The two hit it off, breaking poor Maggie's heart. Soon Whiteside decides that maybe he has made a mistake, but he discovers that setting things straight is not easy. The ensuing sequence is incredibly humorous for the audience. To make this play a success, the actors diligently memorized their lines, the set crew built, and the costumes were stitched. In effect, everyone put all that they had into the play, and it showed marvelously. If a production is to be a hit, people have to work together, and fortunately, there was a lot of comradery, among the cast. Remarked Marit Trestad, The play was a good opportunity to meet and know 28 WINTER PLAY NEWS nd ISSUES NEWS ISSUES 29 Election ’84 The 1984 Presidential election was moved by a resurgence in patriotism. Ronald Reagan and Walter Mondale used flag-waving rhetoric in order to capitalize on the new nationalistic trend. They argued over far-reaching issues during two widely watched debates (although some felt that the debates resembled small press conferences). The issues covered during these debates ranged from U. S. foreign policy to religion and its role in the American government. Much of the world’s attention was not centered on the Presidential candidates themselves. but rather on their running mates: George Bush. Republican Vice Presidential candidate, and Geraldine Ferraro. Democratic Vice Presidential candidate. The election held no surprises for most of America and the world. Incumbent Ronald Reagan won 70% of the popular vote and carried all of the states, excluding Mondalc's home state of Minnesota and the District of Columbia. Reagan’s sweeping victory was the first of its kind since Franklin D. Roosevelt. However, many felt that Reagan lost his chance to gain a mandate by not clearly stating what his policies were to be during his second term. Newcomers The 1984 Presidential campaign brought into the publics’ eye two new political faces that represented two major forces in America. Jesse Jackson, a black Baptist minister from the South, ran for the Democratic nomination, being the first black man to seriously compete for the position. Though he did not capture the nomination, his candidacy spurred voter regis- tration among blacks. Geraldine Ferraro was chosen as the first woman Vice Presidential candidate by Walter Mondalc, the man who beat out both Jackson and Senator Gary Hart of Colorado for the Democratic Presidential nomination. Many felt that Mondale chose Ferraro as his running mate simply for political expediency, but not all the voters followed Mondalc’s hopes. Some people said that Ferraro’s candidacy scared off as many voters as it attracted. Star Wars The question of the military played a major role in the formation of many voters’ decisions when it came time to vote. The idea of taking nuclear war up into the heavens became a possible reality with the concept of Star Wars—a defensive system designed to shoot down Soviet missiles. Reagan seemed to take a liber- al view of Star Wars and offered to share the technology with the Soviet Union. Mondalc, on the other hand, spoke out against escalating nuclear war into space, and felt that sharing that knowledge with the Russians would be pointless. Religion Religion has been a contro versial issue for most of America’s history, and it surfaccc once again during Election ’84 Candidates Reagan and Mondalc debated about the role they felt that religion should play in American’s lives. Reagan, who played up the ’’traditional’’ aspect of family life believed that peoples’ rcligior would always direct the law Reagan felt that prayer should be allowed to be practiced in public schools, whereas Mondalc upheld the idea of total separation of church and state Ronald Reagan begins his second term as the President of the United States of America 30 NEWS ISSUES News In Brief At the Democratic Victory Gala.

Technically, the move was called a layout back somersault with a double twist, but the length of its title seemed unimportant as Mary Lou Ret-ton gracefully whirred through the rountine. With a solid thwump, she landed on the mat. Up went her arms, in that familiar gymnast’s pose, her face beaming. Instantly, the crowd rose and cheered, seeming to know exactly what the judges would rule. A perfect 10 — and the first individual medal won by an American woman in Olympic gymnastics. The roar of the crowd, filled with excitement, displayed the pride that Americans felt for each one of the 589 United State’s athletes participating in the XXIII Olympiad. This spirit was present during a 11 16 days at the Summer Olympics held in Los Angeles, California. Over 7000 athletes from nearly every corner of the world came to L. A., with each participant bringing years of training and dedication with them. One major presence was not felt, however. Claiming that there would not be enough protection for their athletes, the Soviet Union announced in the spring that they would not be participating at the Summer Games. To the United States, it seemed an action of revenge mimicking the U. S.’s boycott of the 1980 Olympics in Moscow. All eastern bloc countries followed Russia’s lead, except Romania. Their influence on the Games was seen by 17-year-old Romanian gymnast Ecaterina Szabo’s performances. Szabo won two silvers, two golds, and helped her team win the gold medal in team competition. Despite the Soviet’s absence, the L. A. Olympics were a huge success. The Games were attended by 5.5 million lucky spectators, and 2.5 billion oth-ers-over half of the world’s population-watched the thrills on television. Throughout America, it was a summer to remember. The United States won 83 gold medals — an Olympic world record — with the help of such fine athletes as Carl Lewis, Greg Louganis, Steve I.undquist, Joan Benoit, Evelyn Ashford, Connie Car-penter-Phinney, and Peter Vidmar. As LIFE magazine said, 1984 was a “Golden Summer.’’ In a race that highlighted the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia, Bill J. Johnson claimed the first gold medal won by an American downhill skier. Americans marvelled at Olympic figure skater Scott Hamill’s grace in Sarajevo. 16-year-old Mary Lou Ref ton won the hearts of millions of Los Angeles Olympic fans. 32 NEWS ISSUES News In Brief Medical Breakthroughs ... A twelve day-old infant, known only as “Baby Fae” to the public, was the recipient of the fifth animal heart ever transplanted to a human. Baby Fae’s controversial surgery sparked protest from many who felt that medical experiments were going too far, that doctors were no longer concerned with human suffering — but only with new medical techniques. 1984 also saw the survival of William Schroeder, a 52-ycar-old Indiana man, who had a completely artificial heart implanted in his chest. A Decrowned Miss America ... The first black Miss America, Vanessa Williams, also became the first Miss America to be forced to give up her title. In late summer. Penthouse magazine released a batch of sexually explicit photos taken years before. Feeling the pressure from the pageant committee, Ms. Williams resigned, and her title was given to first runner up Suzette Charles. Child Sex Abuse ... One of the sexual abuse cases that made national headlines hit close to home for many Minnesotans. John Clark Donohue, artistic director of the Children’s Theatre Company in Minneapolis, was charged with three counts of sexual abuse involving male students at the school. The truly frightening part as the fact that it was believed that the CTC board of directors had suspected Donohue’s actions for some time.

This year’s festivities were off to a bang with the combination of the annual Sweetheart Dance and the Winter Olympics, a yearly event organized by the Student Council. Highly competitive, the Olympic games were held after school, or on weekends and consisted of four events: snow sculpture, sledding, boot hockey, and a scavenger hunt. After vigorous battle between the many teams in an effort for victory, the competition was narrowed down to four teams in the final event- the peanut roll at the Snow-Court pepfest. Noses to the ground, the Extrapolators were exuberant as they rolled their peanut past the finish line and on to victory. The Snow Olympics were just one small part of the pepfest, however, for coronation of the Snow-Court was the main event.

Serving more than one purpose, the look also helped disguise less academically inclined students by making a statement such as, “I’ve been accepted to Harvard, when in truth daddy had just picked it up for junior on his latest business trip. Since going barefoot at school could be quite hazardous if one did not care for the sensation of stepping on wet gobs of unin-dentifed substances, guys of Edina chose to don footwear while sauntering to and from class. Mocassins were a popular choice for the rugged out-doorsy look while loafers in black and brown were the choice of GQ men. “Indoors, as the soccer team named them, were black and red sneakers worn by jocks who were going foi the fashion statement of. “Look!

FADS AND FASHIONS 39 Fashions At EHS nil With the opening of the school year at Edina came the beginning of another year of fabulous fashions! Trends to beat those of all other years were in the making, especially when it came to sweaters. Forenza, the unlimited Limited sweater, won hands down when rating on popularity; half of the female student body showed up on the first day of school in the crew neck or more popular V-neck style of cotton sweater. Vests by Esprit and Genera were worn over dolman sleeved blouses buttoned to the top and accented with a color- beaded necklace. Sweatshirts were as much a craze for girls as they were for guys, the most popular being the ones imprinted with “The University of Paris, Sorbonnc” emblem on the chest. Benetton played a major role in the fashion scene with geometric patterned sweaters as well as soft angora pastels and bright oversized cardigans. At the top of the trends was the mens-wcar look, a style of dressing characterized by straight, boxy slacks and sweaters in grand proportions, but with a hint of femininity. Neckties with pearls, tweed men’s overcoats with a plaid scarf, and mens-style leather oxford shoes with a calf-length straight skirt were examples of the fashion flare. The most radical element of fashion could also be viewed in the hallways. People often dressed in accordance with the music to which they listened. Punk fashion was typified by dyed and oddly cut hair and the mixing of unique textures to form sometimes outrageous outfits. Rhinestones and a profusion of bracelets completed many a punk wardrobe. Old concert t-shirts, worn and torn jeans, and leather generally signified a follower of heavy metal groups such as Twisted Sister and Motley Crue. Students took on a very individulistic approach to fashion in ’84-’85. Many returned to the traditional, preppy fold while others continued to experiment with new looks. Prior to faying for school.

They felt the need to participate in something other than second lunch or Mr. Leu-ty’s ECON class. To fill this void, the Edina students could join one of the many organizations offered during the ’84-’85 school year. For students interested in continuing the expansion of their academic-type knowledge, groups like the Debate Team or the Highschool Bowl Team provided a challenge. Student Council members appreci- ated their opportunity to have a say in the school administration while learning more about the governments of the world. Language clubs gave curious kids a chance to learn more about a favorite foreign country. Most people agreed that learning about another culture was more fun when one did it by dressing up in strange costumes or eating native foods than when reading a textbook. For the musical people at EHS, the school had an orchestra, three bands, and several different choir groups to accomodate them.

International Club, on the other hand, had the luxury of having students from different nations come to them. These students were part of the AFS exchange program. International Club participated in most of the activities the other clubs did, but also had the “It’s an incredible, exciting adventure!” Julie Salovich (11) opportunity to show teen agers from other countries what American high-school students do in their spare time. The exchange students enjoyed showing Edina students what they did in their home countries. Each exchange student prepares a presentation showing the type of clothes and customs of their country. Even though these students must return home after the year, the friendships they established will last forever. “Le club de francais est la vie,” translat- ed: “French Club is the life.” was a phrase often spoken by members of the 1984-85 French Club. Open-membership, a new concept this year, allowed for a varied assortment of participants, and therefore more activities. The French Club, under the direction of Mme. Petri (fac.). was lead by officers Megan McBurney (11), Jennifer Ducar (12), and Laura Basslnger (11). Frequent meetings were held after school to discuss and plan new ways to enjoy the French culture. The club members had fondue parties, enjoyed L’Hotel Sofitel, and took part in a wide range of fun activities, including a hayride and snow games. President Megan McBurney summed up the year: “The club really went well. We all had a fantastic time, especially learning about French, each other, and. oh yes, croissants. Language clubs provided great opportunity for students to learn more about the language that they are studying. It also gave students a great chance to meet one another while doing something constructive and not spending much money. The sense of comar-aderie between the members of the clubs strengthened throughout the year, and by the end of the year, lasting friendships had been developed.

Most likely, he has taken it for granted. Yet, there were at least a few who respectfully cherished their education at Edina High School. They were the students who participated in such programs as ABC (A Better Chance), and various exchange students organizations, which each brought students from all over the country and the world to study at E. H. S. ABC gave American students with great academic potential an opportunity to study at a prominent high shool, which would in turn enable them to get into a better college. These students came from such places as Ohio. New York. Los Angeles, and Minnesota. The ABC students stayed close throughout the year through parties and special fundraising functions such as garage sales and auctions. As Kim Smith (11) commented.” ABC is a great program that has worked well for the past three years.” The AFS. or American Field Service program. was one that brought foreign exchange students to the metropolitan area. This year the three AFS students came from Spain. France, and Bolivia. Yet, living so far away from home for nine months didn’t I like being here . . . it’s like a big family.” Maria Vargas daunt these three too much. If they felt homesick they could call any one of the Twin Cities’ sixty-seven AFS exchange students at any time. This group joined together often during the year for International weekends, festive Halloween or Christmas parties, and other such convival activities. The AFS students were also members of the International Club here at school. As Maria Vargas (12) pointed out. “AFS is a good program. 1 like being here with all the AFS students; it’s like a big family. In addition to AFS. other organizations such as the American Scandinavian Student Exchange, People to People Japan which is a part of the Rotary International Youth Exchange Program, and the American Rotary Student Exchange brought foreign students to study at Edina High School. Like the AFS students, these international participants engaged in social events and trips with other foreign teens and took part in the many activities of Edina's International Club. With the benefit of such organizations, a diverse assortment of youths was achieved, producing a colorful collage of contrasting cultures and a valuable education of different lifestyles.

As the year began, so did the daily meet-ngs of Student Council, and with this new oeginning came many new changes. Late in the previous spring, Delmar Fredrlcson (fac), faculty advisor for many years, resigned his position, allowing Julian Grev (fac) to take his place. In the student body other changes were also occuring, Andy Schoenzlet, the popularly elected Student Council President, chose to resign from his post; Reed Gllky (12), the former Vice-President immediately assumed the role, and a second election was held. After this commotion the four officers were. President Reed Gilky, Vice-President Cas Hannon (12), Secretary Martha Goldberg (12), and Treasurer Jllllan Crane (12). After the elections, the Student Council settled down to work. One of the questions Hay ley Busch posed to the council by the student body, was to where had the benches which had formerly graced the commons disappeared. After some research, they reported that the benches had mistakenly been sold off to an undisclosed organization. When asked about them. Treasurer Jillian Crane said, “The administration should have kept a closer eye on the benches.” Aside from the pressing question of the missing benches, the Student Council had many other responsibilities. They planned pepfests and dances, such as Sweetheart. They also organized Charity Week, and had a very successful canned food drive, designed to stock food shelters for the winter months. As Hayley Busch (11) noted, “We work a lot harder than people think we do.” “We work alot harder than people think we do.” STUDENT COUNCIL 51 Nina Weinberg (12). has no trouble letting her emotions out at an Impact meeting, Seniors Paula Theroa.

We have all heard that phrase more than once throughout our adolescent years. But, are you convinced that it’s true? With all the pressures and the problems we have all encountered during our secondary school experience it would certainly be a debateable topic. In fact this topic would have made agreat debate between the Edina High School Debate team and the participants of impact. It’s true that these two organizations eemed totally different, but they did share a ommon goal: to improve people’s lives hrough support. Resolved: participants in organized religious groups throughout the political process enhance democracy. And, resolved: the Federal government should provide employment to all employable citizens living in poverty. These were the two topics that the excellent Edina High School Debating team debated in another successful season which lasted from September to January, during which the team traveled about Minnesota and debated with over sixty different high school teams. Each member spent many nights after school with their advisor Tim Baker (fac), gathering information and re- “People helping people through sharing previous experiences.” Paula Theros (12) hearsing material that would give them insight on the issue. Each member also planned their arguments, whether positive or negative, wrote them out, and presented them to a judge. Impact was an organization made up of students who reached out to support peers and younger kids, their goal being to help them cope with their high-pressure lives and live happily. Under the supervision of Marcia Runnberg-Owen, who worked at Storefront Youth Action, John Brown, and Joe Cavanaugh, Impact’s members met every two weeks. “The purpose of Impact is people helping people through sharing previous experiences,” senior Paula Theros (12) stated. Impact’s members worked with Edina’s elementary students through Project CHARLIE. They also acted as Big Brothers and Big Sisters to youngsters in the community who needed the security of an older friend. In late December, Impact held a retreat for themselves which turned out to be an enriching experience. Nikki Speliopou-los (12) stated excitedly, “Impact is the chance to make new friendships while helping people in different areas. It’s neat to be part of the group!” ebating Dilemmas Being a member of the Debate team entails lots of hours spent writing speeches, and to prove that fact members Kara Benton (12) andSteve Hallend (10) are found writing diligently.

Cover This year there were a few little-known clubs which were started to meet the needs of students. One such organization was the Writer’s Group, which was started by students. Barb Voss (12) and Kate Ferrara (12), in January of ’83. It is a student support group where students can share their writings with the group. This was an opportunity for students who may not be involved in a writing class to get input from their peers. The object was to create an out-of-classroom setting; no spelling corrections, no grades, simply constructive criticism. At the end of the year, the group compiled an anthology to distribute to teachers and submit to colleges. Voss said, “The Writer’s group provides an avenue for avant-guard writers to get recognition for their works as well as a means for all writers to talk with each other, exchange ideas, and have a good time.” Another little-known group was the Art Club. Formed just this year by students and headed by Mr. Tom Beaver (fac), the club’s goal was to get students interested in art and make the school community aware of what they were doing. As Mr. Beaver pointed out, “We arc not a performing art. We show our work, isolate it. and leave it open for vandalism.’’ It was hard to get recognition, but with their dedication, they could make people notice them. For those in the Future Problem Solving group dilema was their business. Future Problem Solving is a nationwide competition where three problems, taking place cither now or in the future, arc presented to teams of four. The team then tries to come up with a solution step by step. If a team does well, they go to the international competition. The program was introduced to Edina two years ago by Lois Anderson (fac), who found out about it through a workshop. Math club is another group we car “add to our list of small clubs. Math Club, which is headed by Curtis Johnson (fac), was formed for interested students tc prepare for the national math competition The school is given a score based on th average of the top three student scores. O the Edina students who take the test, the ones who score highest arc usually in mat! club. The test takes a lot of preparatior and a good understanding for mathemat ics. The school has done well in the past and has often been one of the top five ir the state. The club gave students a chance to find out just how good they arc. Of th' competition Johnson says, “It determine the best of the best.” These groups, though small in siz played a major role in the 1984-198; school year because they met the needs o: a large number of students. These groups have contributed to the reputation Edina has for fine organizations. 54 SMALL CLUBS Barb Voss (12) types data involving the latest question posed to the future problem solvers.

Not the Twilight Zone, not Wallyworld, but the Ze-phyrus hour, the time when Zephyrus staffers worked on the twelve issues of the newspaper produced during the year. Through hard work and dedication, the excellent Zephyrus staff put out a new exciting newspaper: but Zephyrus wasn’t all work. As most of the staff could attest, being on Zephyrus could be a lot of fun. Some of the activities they enjoyed included early morning breakfasts, a tri-publication party, and a Halloween party. In spite of all this recreation, the Zephyrus staff managed to accomplish a huge amount of work. Most of its efforts were directed toward effecting the changes in the newspaper this year. The first modification was a more modern format, designed by Mach Arom's (12) father. The other variation re- sulted in two new sections of the newspaper: In Depth and Viewpoint. The former covered a singled topic from its different aspects. Viewpoint was a photo poll which “Everyone can’t always love you . . . but in spite of this, you can still produce a good product.’’ Mach Arom (12) allowed students to get their opinions published. Viewpoint was an important part of the paper; the staff felt that more student and faculty opinions should be published than in the previous years. But why all this change? A few of the staffers attended a journalist workshop last summer and learned contemporary techniques that could make the paper more interesting to this year’s readers. They applied these techniques because they felt that it was time for a change and only hoped it was for the better. As Mach Arom. the editor-in-chief of the paper, put it. Everyone can't always love you. There will always be some who are mad at you. but in spite of this you can still produce a good product.” Mr. Lewis (fac), the Zephrus adviser, agreed that they put out a good product this year and shared his thoughts that. Taking on a new challenge of advising the newspaper had been a rewarding experience because I've had the opportunity to work with so many truly dedicated and hardworking students.” As they ivail for the school phone line to clear. Jillian Crane (12) and Mike Felt (12) discuss a copy. ZF.PHRYUS 57 xcellence: not just an image . . . What Immediately came to mind when day glo green posters glared out from the school walls, or when one heard voices on the P.A. urging students to subscribe for only $5? Why, Images on the Wind, Edina High School’s literary arts magazine, of course. The magazine, far from being an overblown poetry collection, was a compilation of artwork, prose, photography, poetry and “whatnot,” all by Edina students grades 9-12. With a seventeen-year history of All-American awards and two consecutive years of nomination for pacemaker awards. Images has lived up to Edina’s standard of excellence. When asked whether the magazine will continue to uphold such a tradition, editor Anja Hummel (12) said, “I’m sure we will.” The process of assembling such an out- standing magazine was the staff's task, described by the editor as, “starting out with nothing from all over the school and creating something.” This process began with the vi- “I think it’s an honor few people recognizi Matt Pfohl (12) tal subscription drive and the unique High-top Bop featuring the band, A Few to raise money. In mid-January, they received a thousand plus submissions, which they tackled with the help of open minds. Diet Coke, and their own impeccable taste. The essential factor in their labors according to Diane Seaberg (12) was, “how we all got along really well and were able to share our ideas.” The value of their experience will remain th the staff long after they have moved on. plained Matt Pfohl (12), “I think it’s an honor few people recognize. We are not all ‘brains’ or hard work- I enjoyed doing the little things like making announcements or posting flyers because I know what it’ll produce. But I’m glad it’s not as flashy as state champ athletic teams.” Imager Antay Bll-gutay (12) elaborated, “You get a closer look at the students’ feelings, you get to know a group of wonderful people, and you learn about producing a top-notch magazine.

Since I’m on Windigo, it can’t be that tough to write about Windigo.’' Well, that was three weeks ago. and I’ve since discovered that 1 was very wrong! I have caught the dreaded disease that strikes unsuspecting yearbook staffers at the worst of times — writer’s block. This past week I’ve mastered the technique of avoiding our copy editor. Brenda Hamilton (12). (My copy was supposed to be in two weeks ago, but due to my unfortunate ailment, it’s still unwritten. I tried telling her that my dog ate it. but she didn’t really seem to care.) Whenever I spot her casually strolling down the Commons, I inconspicuously duck behind the nearest pillar. I haven’t gone to 3rd hour Windigo for two days, fearing that she'll corner me and demand, with pica ruler held ominously in fist, to see my copy. Honestly Brennie, I've been trying! My first attempt was a testimony to the fact that we did work hard, that Windigo was not simply a blow-off course. I wrote about how the editors, Betsy Campbell (12) and Elisabeth Peter (12). sacrificed their sleep for one whole week to finish the color sec- a headline tion. I wrote about the number of hours Jason Elliot (12) spent on the phone trying desparately to get patrons in order to avoid facing Ruth Wikoff (11) and Ruth Smith (11) empty handed. I also told how photographer Jim Miller (10) set a new record for darkroom activity — he printed 69 pictures in one day. Then. I added the part about searching every single storeroom in the Edina School District for the absent supplements. I thought the story was great - it exem-plefied the countless hours we slaved through to put together 284 pages of memories for the student body. However, upon turning it In. Elisabeth said. It’s too boring. Make it fun. Okay — it’s fun she wanted. That day I sat down and my recolections of all the craziness the staff engaged in throughout the year spilled out onto the paper. I remebered doing the wave at Rocky Rococco’s, and I put down my memories of wacky wall walkers and Froot Loops. I added a bit about how we always forget Josten’s address when we approached the post office desk at 4:57 p.m. on the day after mailing deadline. I even got a quote from Brian Kelly (10), who was the inventor of Windigo’ own language. He said that during deadlines, we all got a little Wingigoofy. 1 backed his statement up with my rememberances of Kevin McLaughlin's (10) contests, visits form Denny Terrio. and our infatuation with gophers. However, when I handed in this effort, it was Betsy who turned it down. She nonchalantly gave it back to me with a “Sorry, it’s not quite right. Now here I am. It’s already 10 p.m. on the second night of deadline. I’ve been sitting here for exactly thirteen hours and twenty-seven minutes (but who’s counting), and my pencil is still inactive. No one else seems to be experiencing my inability to work. Kelly Cusack (10) is in the kitchen typing away on her almost-finished mini-mag copy. Carrie Ryder (12) is almost done with her final 3-R, and Erika Hagen (11) is recopying her sophomore class spread for the third time without complaint. Why me? Why can’t I pul the ideas that are filling my mind into something half-way literate? Oh — I give up! We just won’t have a copy on Windigo this year.

(very important persons). Along with the prestigious title of captain or editor came much responsibility, long hours, and dedication. Mach Arom (12), editor of Zephyrus, Edina High School’s newspaper, spent many long nights checking layouts to make sure the paper would make the press deadline. Mach was also responsible for initiating the new and more liberal Zephyrus image. The editors of Windigo this past year were Betsy Campbell (12), Elisabeth Peter (12), and copy-editor Brenda Hamilton (12). The co-editors were responsible for creatively designing the yearbook’s content, making crucial editorial decisions, and checking over the layouts before mailing them to be printed. The copy-editor assisted with the feature writing and proofread each and every copy. Another publication at Edina High School was “Images On The Wind,” the literary arts magazine. This award-winning magazine's editor was Anja Hummel (12), whose foremost responsibility was keeping up the magazine’s excellent reputation and supervising the selection of poems, stories, and artwork to be published. To fray the publication’s production cost, Anja and her staff members hosted a Triclass Bash. Edina’s Horncttcs were lucky enough to have two hardworking and enthusiastic captains, Nicole Reynolds (12) and Laurie Lund (12). Along with attending practices and teaching new dances, Laurie and Nicole initiated two carwashes during the summer to help for uniforms. Each of these leaders deserved to be congratulated for their dedication, hard work, and jobs well done.

The band members ranged from sophomores to juniors to seniors and from tuba players to flutists to drummers. Being a bandie , as a band member is affectionally called by the student body, required hours of practicing pieces of music written by great composers such as Bach and Sousa, and it entailed a year of full-fledged participation and commitment. In the fall the Concert Band joined with the Varsity Band to create the Edina High School Marching Band. They marched and performed during the half time shows at the Edina home football games. They made formations such as an E and other asymmetric shapes. The members of Marching Band also played and marched in the Homecoming parade. After the Marching Band season was over, the Concert Band members began to practice and rehearse various numbers, some from South Pacific, to be included in the spring Pops” concert. Throughout the school year, bandies” were found selling candy. Specically, they were selling candy bars; the infamous car-mel. crunch, and almond bars. These sales were activated to reduce the cost of the spring break week-long tour to Hawaii. While in Hawaii they performed to various audiences, such as high school students. They also had enough leftover time each day to sightsee and lay out on the beaches. This year there was a band council, and its president was Todd Fogdall (12). The council organized meetings and practices and Helped Mr. Melichar with small tasks. Council member Becky Fogdall (10) said. Mr. Melichar is a great guy. he’s fun to work with. Even with the rigorous practice schedule and the fardel of having to sell candy, the Concert Band members agreed unanimously with sophomore Julie Huck’s statement that ... band was a good experience!

Now flutes, play those last four measures again. I’m not sure you've got it right Such was the very quintessence of the band: hard work with marvelous results Varsity Band, under the leadership of Bol Elledge (fac.), again proved itself secon to none in the 1984-85 school year. As the marching season ended and the band season started, they turned their attention to producing a wonderful Holiday Concert. The Varsity Band’s next (and possibly greatest) endeavor was the Spring Pops Concert, which entailed not only the instrumental, but “The little short guy — he makes it all worthwhile.” Matt McNeil (11) vocal and terpsichorean talents of the band members as well. Topping off the year was the spring tour to Kansas City, for which 102 students trod door-to-door selling Christmas wreaths, cookies, and chocolate Easter bunnies throughout the year. Along with hard work and fantastic results were laughable times that the band went through. Said Matt McNeil (11), “It’s a blast. But one asks, why? The little short guy — he makes it all worthwhile.” he explained. When asked about his favorite part of conducting. Bob Elledge (fac.) said, “The students, of course and the fun we have when we’re not playing- not when I’m being an ogre out there fin the band room].” 66 VARSITY BAND — The clarinets play to beat the band at the Holiday Holding out a note.

If one was to take a group of musically talented students, give them an hour every day to develop and nurture that talent, what would you have? Without a doubt, the answer is the school orchestra. The woodwinds, the strings, the brass, and the percussion make up this dynamic 60-piece orchestra whose musical versitility ranged from popular music, which was played at their cabaret concert, to a complete symphony. Through fund raisers, during which they sold cook books, pizza, happening’s books, and notepads, the orchestra earned their trip to Hawaii, where they toured over spring break. Their tour included an aloha lei greeting upon their arrival, a trip to the Dole “It is no small task.” Ed Melichar Pineapple Company, a concert at King Ka-mehamaha High School, a concert at Kapio- lani band show, snorkling at Hanuama Bay, a tour of Pearl Harbor, and the Arizona memorial, and a final concert. Although the orchestra no doubt had the talent, putting together a concert was no easy job. “It is no small task,” said Edward Melechar, the orchestra’s director, “putting on a concert sometimes takes as long as three months.” Although the preparation was difficult, the orchestra worked hard, and put on quite a performance. As orchestra member Mark Dolezal said. Orchestra provides opportunity for students to develop their musical skills and. at the same time, have fun.” Tina Mason concentrates as she carefully follows the music.

After hours of singing scales, learning intervals, and reading music, one could advance to the top- the peak of the choir scene, the “AP level of choral music- Concert Choir. Contrary to popular belief, Concert Choir involved more than just singing; it also included music appreciation, how to work within a group, and just plain having fun! Directed by an incredibly dedicated musician. Bob Peterson (fac.), there was no end to the increasing quality of performances. Led by President Charlie Rogers (12), the Concert Choir board of students helped Mr. Peterson make important decisions during the year, such as where to go on tour. New York City was the chosen destination. In order to finance the excursion, members of the choir could be seen doing almost anything to sell the needed amount of fruit and cheese to pay for their trip. Carrie Larson (12), a soprano choir member commented. “It was a lot of work, but in March we'll be glad we made the effort.” Performing the first choir concert of the year, the Concert Choir joined the Varsity and Treble choirs to perform on December 13 and 14 in the annual Holiday Concert. “It was a lot of work, but in March we’ll be glad we made the effort.” Carrie Larson (12) Capturing the spirit of the holidays, voices joyfully rang out as the choir performed “Hallelujah, “For Unto Us a Child is Born from the Messiah. “Sing and Rejoice. Shepherd’s Pipe Carol, and several other selections. Five-year-old Megan Northrup joined the choir to steal the show in a festive Christmas medley. An appearance by the Chamber Singers, an elite group of sixteen singers, made the concert complete. The singers practiced twice weekly after school, rehearsing madrigal-type music which they sang around the community. “I really enjoy getting together with other dedicated singers.” commented Jill Swenson (12), an alto and one of Choncert Choir’s piano accompanists. Concerts at Orchestra Hall and Calhoun Square were a couple of the more memorable performances.

They thought a bit: is it the Osmonds on tour? Is it a group of students gone completely insane? No, it was either Treble choir or Varsity choir under the direction of Bob! Peterson (fac.). practicing for upcoming events. The Varsity choir was the largest choir of the two, made up of over one hundred students. It was comprised of seniors, juniors, and even a few sophomores. Tayna Goo-drum (11) expressed her sentiments to- wards the choir by saying. I enjoy being in Varsity choir but I would rather be in Concert choir. , The Treble choir consisted of junior and “I enjoy being in Varsity Choir ...” Tanya Goodrum (11) sophomore girls. They were taught the fundamental basics, such as sight reading. sing-J ing intervals, and learning to become independent singers. Katie DeVoc (10) point- ed out. It has been alot of fun learning the basics of choir. All the members hoped to move on to Varsity or even Concert choir next year. Both choirs participated in three major concerts during the year, along with numerous presentations. Varsity choir also had the priviledge of going on spring tour, but Treble choir was not allowed to go along. These wistfuls had to sit at home and practice, thinking how next year they would be part of the tour. All the members agreed with Jenny Hearon (11) when she stated, “It's a lot of work, but its also a lot of fun getting to know everyone.

This year’s athletic programs, however, were a step ahead in athletic skill, in team unity, and in competition. The abundance of individual skill and talent in athletics has always been distinguishable at Edina High School, and this year the tradition was carried on. Of course, when you take individual talent and put it into a team, the result is success. And not only were individual athletes successful this year, but so were out talented athletic teams. Part of the reason for Edina’s success was the togetherness and team unity involved. Not only were this year’s athletes a team during the game, the meet, or the match, but they remained a team even when it was over. All the athletes generally had the same things in common: respect, appreciation and responsiveness to their teammates and coaches. Last fall, the boys’ and girls’ cross country running teams came out in front to show an impressive season. The boys put in hard work through daily runs, track work, and weightlifting which made them a strong distance team, while the girls’ enthusiasm, spirit, and dedication led them to an overall third place finish in the Lake Conference .........................page 90 Because of the small number of returning letterwomen this year, the 1984 varsity girls’ volleyball team had a difficult time getting back on their feet. But through determination, hours of hard work, dedication, and a lot of support and leadership, they really pulled together and showed an impressive season from beginning to end ................................... page 86 After graduating so many of the 1984 state championship players, it was questionable whether or not this year’s varsity hockey team would follow the winning tradition. With a record number of tryout participants, the selection of players was difficult yet rewarding and the season began and ended with determination and a drive for success ..................page 104 The 1984 girls’ swimming team returned this year with their same strength and power to capture an additional state title. The arduaus daily practices paid off when they became the 1984 state champions by a large margin victory over other schools. With an undefeated season record, the young team looks forward to a promising future ...................page 88 Edina High School athletics wouldn’t be where they arc today without the strong sense of competition involved. Competition drove our athletes to hard work, determination, and enthusiasm. Each time the school added a new trophy to its collection, that competitive spirit paid off. not just for the teams, but for the school as a whole. Without this abundance of talent, this sense of team unity and this drive for competition, Edina High School athletics would not have been a step ahead.

Co-captains Ted Browne (12) and Erik Larsen (12) started the team off in August with rugged practices twice a day along with their strong support and leadership. The Hornets suffered difficult losses in the early season, but really pulled themselves together for their final victory against Kennedy in the fall. Overall, many players stood out through the season, including Steve Moore (12). who was voted best defensive back by the team, Erik Larsen (12) and Greg Larson (12). two impressive linesmen, quarterbacks Ross Toe-pel (12) and Greg Johnson (11). who brought the team through a lot of ups and downs. Ty Farley (12) and Greg Rose (12). two skillful receivers, and seniors Paul Vandervort and Ted Browne, who demon strated their tough durability from August through October. This football team had the same strong sense of togetherness common to many of the Edina teams. As senior Greg Rose acknowledge. “This year we were more of a team. Everyone got along really well and we had a lot of fun. Defensively, the Hornets placed second in the Lake South Conference for fewest yards given up. and their overall conference record was 3-3. In addition, these boys learned much more about football than just playing the game. As co-captain Ted Browne commented, I learned that little things can make a big difference ... towards the end of the season some of the little things that had gone against us earlier started going for us and we closed the season with a pair of victories. Despite their season of bad breaks, this gridiron team pulled through a lot of challenges and upsets to maintain the respect and admiration of the school and community. Craig Opitz (II) reaches to deter the opposition VARSITY FOOTBALL 77 Edina Socs’ It To ’Em ---------Svd ’SotXBA ----------- he desire to win and working well together as a team were the main reasons why the Girls' Varsity Soccer team did so well this year. Many returning letter-men, experience, good coaches and a positive attitude helped lead the team toward success. Being a good team on and off the field also helped lead the Hornets to victory. The team did a lot of things together off the field that helped them get through the season. They held potlucks during the season, and one night they rented a hotel room and spent the night together. These events helped the girls get better acquaint- ed with each other, get psyched up for a game, and improved team unity. After preparing for a game off the field, the team appeared on the field fired up and ready to play. Returning senior goalkeeper Kit Brown (12) did an excellent job in the net. allowing only four goals during the regular season. Katie Steider (11) and Colleen Mullen (12) helped by scoring many goals for Edina, and Jennifer Keating (11) worked to keep the opponent from scoring goals. Everyone playing well, and teamwork was what led the Hornets to many victories. The Hornets ended their season with a superb 13 1-1 record. When asked why this year’s team did so well. Kit Brown replied. “Team unity-the players have improved a lot since last year, and we have become more of a team. Senior co-captain Amy Cardarelle (12) said This year’s team has a lot of experience. We don't have a super-star like we have had in past years. Everyone does their job and this year we have a lot of talent.

However common that may be with Edina athletic teams, this varsity boys' team was unique in its own way. Not only was their overall season record impressive, but as Tom Keating (12) acknowledged, Team unity was the supporting factor in our success this year. Every practice from August through October was a happening for this team. They worked very hard, were well conditioned, had great appreciation for each other's talents. and were very receptive to new ideas. This certainly paid off when they began to face other teams in regular season games. As Coach Lowell McCarthy commented, They approached each and every game with a lot of enthusiasm ... they are all real quality boys. Senior captains Brendan Reardon and Bud Williams provided terrific leadership for the team throughout the season. Leading scorer Dave Sollie (12) was a premiere forward and a very impressive player. Other forwards Peter Kwon (12) and Mark Mooers (11) were very consistent and very skillful players. Halfback John Duffey (12) was very durable and knowledgeable. On the defensive side, seniors Tom Keating and Bud Williams saw a lot of action and played well throughout the season. Last but certainly not least, goalies Greg Boner (12) and Todd Cain (12) worked well with each other and were very supportive. As senior halfback John Duffey acknowledged. Comparing this year to last year, this year's squad is much tighter and has a stronger sense of togetherness. Each player on the 1984 team was known for his positive attitude and well developed skills, his determination, and his role as a team person. When Coach McCarthy (12) was asked what was important about this year's team, he responded. They all like each other, they respond well to one another, and they are all very determined to get the job done. As Coach McCarthy said. It’s important to do a good job for yourselves, not for me, and that is just what they did, Varsity soccer players watch the final seconds of the game with intense concentration. In anticipation of victory. Brendan Reardon (12) takes a shot on goal. i BOYS’SOCCER 81 Lucky Number Seven ---------5 Mi' Jewtii--- Yes. they did it again. The Girls Varsity Tennis team won the state title for the seventh year in a row. A lot of Edina teams have won state titles, but winning seven consecutive titles is phenomenal. Not only did the team defeat Burnsville four games to one to take state, but junior Ginger Helgeson (11) won the Class A A singles championship, and Jenny Moe (10) and Michelle Houser (12) won the doubles championship. After going through many changes, the team came back stronger than ever. The transition of head coach from Ted Greer (fac) to Chuck Anderson (fac) was hard at first, and the beginning of the season was spent getting to know each other better. After the team got used to the new way of coaching and conditioning, a new and more spirited team emerged. Senior Laura Bassinger said, The changes have helped us a lot, they have made us become more of a team. We have come up with more spirit, are a lot closer and we have a lot more fun.” The new team that emerged was not made up of individuals, but was one united team. What resulted was a team that could not be beaten.Senior co-captain Kelly Anderson said, We work well together and we we want to win the state title as a team. Their most exciting game was against Blake, who is their best competitor. The team was undefeated during the regular season and rolled over all of their opponents at regions and state championships When asked if they had felt any pressure to win the state title, some of them thought that there was some pressure. Everyone expected the team to win the state title and because of it, they didn't have very good turnouts at their matches. The way the Hornets are playing and with underclassmen to lead next year's team, everyone is hoping that Edina will keep the record going and bring state title number eight back to Edina next year too. Michelle Houser (12) shows that it takes concentration to return a serve. Laura Bassinger (12) works hard during one of the many long and hard practices. 82 GIRLS' TENNIS ---------------------------------------- The team shows Joy after winning the state title.

The lack of snow at the onset of the season made it difficult for them to acually get out and ski. Much of their training oc-curcd on dry land. Workouts consisted of running for never-ending miles, dashing up and down stairs, and lifting heavy weights. When asked what the season was like, Julie England (11) answered. “It was really fun, but it was also really hard especially with the lack of snow. Although the boys' and girls' cross country ski teams did not practice together, they did have all of their meets together, which brought a sense of closeness and unity between them. Considering the obstacles the teams had to overcome, such as the lack of snow and the frigid weather, they did an exceptionally good job. Enjoying lhogrc.it outdoors S.

An Edina player crouches low and prepares to bump the ball up to her setter. The bump is a perfect hit, and thus with the greatest of ease, the setter sets the ball perfectly to the team’s best spiker. The events of the action-packed game tumble over one another as the spiker jumps up and pounds the ball back onto the other side of the court with the speed of a bullet. The ball hits the floor of the opposing team's side, winning the game for Edina. This is only one illustration of the adept Girls' Volleyball team at Edina High School. Playing volleyball took determination and cooperation as a team, and that is just what the volleyball team had. Senior cocaptain Cyndy Rivers said. We got along really well together. Not one person stood out. we were a team. They also benefited from many returning letterwomen, including co-captain Kathy Larson (12). Jody Warden (12). and Kirsten Lundgaard (12). which helped provide experience for the team. The team did many things together or individually to get psyched up for a game. For instance, the team went out for breakfast on the morning of a game, and during the season they also had a fun and enjoyable sleep-over. Individually, the players would psyche themselves up for a game by either listening to the radio, or just sitting and thinking about the positions they would play during the game. Whether the players got psyched up as a team or individually, it helped them prepare for the Cyndy Rivers (12) concentrates on serving the ball at Jody Warden (J 2) goes to extreams in order to spike one of the many long practices the ball during a practice. long game ahead of them. To most of the players the highlight of the season was the game against Burnsville. Senior co-captain Kathy Larson said, ‘‘We came from behind and won the match in the fifth game. That was really exciting and we were awesome!” Overall, the team had a really good season and had a lot of fun together. Sophomore Gretchen Fruend summed up the season well by saying, Even though we didn't win some games, we still went into each game with the motivation to win. We had a drive within us, and we all played really hard. Kama Lehr (11) works up a sweat as she perfects her setting techniques. 86 GIRLS VOLLEYBALL dlfdidici Gretchen Freund (10).

Although there was no snow at the lime practice began, the teams worked hard on dry land until they were able to begin skiing on snow at Hyland Hills. Both slalom teams this year claimed first place in the Lake Conference and were characterized by strength, balance, and unity. The boys’ slalom team, coached by Rob Weber (fac.). finished the season with an impressive 17-1 record and took an outstanding second place finish at the state meet in February. Captains Paul Coon- MSlalom Skiing- Coonrod(12). Pat Nelson (12), and Kurt Reichert (12) provided strong leadership for the team throughout the season. The boys were fortunate to have many talented and experienced skiers on the 1984-85 team. As senior Ted Christianson commented, The depth of our team this year really helped us win the Lake Conference. The girls' team, coached by Barb Moeller, was blessed with depth as well as unity throughout the season. With an exceptional season record of 18-0. they finished fourth in the state meet. Co-captains Sue McDonald (12) and Gabie Shalley (12) showed dedication and leadership and helped guide the team to their many victo- ries. Initiation at the start of the season and the pizza parties which followed really helped build their unity and make them more of a team. As McDonald remarked, “We skied as a whole, not as individuals. Because of this team unity, we had great finishes. Both the boys' and the girls' slalom skiing teams began and ended their seasons with impressive hard work, determination, and above all team unity. As the girls' cocaptain Gabie Shalley commented, Both teams really worked well together and we had a lot of fun! Pat Nelson (12) concentrates on winning the race.

The city lakes, Bracmar, and the new track were favorite places to keep their spirit and muscles in shape. Coach Larry Johnson (fac.) believed that hard work and dedication would bring success. Besides their daily runs, the boys did track work and lifted weights three times a week. Leading runners included co-captain John Crawford (11). co-captain Mark Lindskoog (12). Dave Torp (11). Jim Ra-telle (11). and Dwight Larson (12). Other runners in the top seven were Pete Dorsey Participants-Competitors ChnhA Ccunbuj fijwninq----- (12). Dave Manolis (11).

Filled with enthusiasm, spirit, and dedication. the eighteen girls on cross country led the team to a successful season with a rank of third in the conference. The girls spent most of their time practicing at Creek Valley. For a change of scenery they would make a trip to a special place such as Fort Snelling State Park. With seven years of coaching exper-ience. Paul Weber (fac.) gave helpful ad- vice and encouragement to the athletes.

Edina boys take their place among competitors at the start ot the region meet CROSS COUNTRY 91 Swinging To State --------Boys Gym nasties-- When the Edina boy's gymnastics team took state for the first time in 1982, they were determined that it would not be for the last time. They were right; for only two years later on the triumphant day of November 10. 1984, the boys regained the sought after number on a position. The lengthy, strenuous practices were the key to the team’s success. Each and every gymnast warmed up and stretched out, and then worked on various events with vigor. Coach Bob Hoecherl (fac.) exclaimed. These boys are extremely competitive. and everybody does the best routine he can possibly do. The incidental fact that there were relatively few injuries this year was fortunate. Along with the talents of senior Eric Gloersen. an exchange student from Norway. the team had a successful season of seven wins and one loss. Yet, this was not a one man team. Tim Fulford (12) commented, The fact that this team has depth was proved when Gloersten missed three of his routines in the state meet. Other important contributers were Lam Truong (12) on the rings and co-captain Bruce Nordstog (12) on the the parallel bars. Co-captain Frank Barnes (12) happily summed the season by proclaiming that winning state was the greatest feeling in my life.” Senior Lam Troung combined his tremendous atm strength with poise and grace to help lead the lidina team to a slate victory. 92 BOYS GYMNASTICS While Coach Hocchcrl looks on, Charles Lim (12) pulls himself into a hand stand.

Number-one-ranked Eden Prarie proved to be their main rival. It was a feather in their cap when the girls won the Edina Invita tional. Co-captains Jennifer Ducar (12) and Toni Manske (12) began the daily, three-hour practices by leading the team’s warm ups. This included the splits, stretching exercises, and basic tumbling on the floor. The girls then divided into groups and went to the different events. Coaches Kit Olson and John Reardon diligently worked with each athlete to perfect their routines. To obtain the sought-after ’ ten ”, the girls held extra practices on Saturdays and over the holiday break. Standouts for the Edina team were Tiffany (Jtendorfer (10) and Michelle Wise (11) all around; Jennifer Ducar on bars; Melony Peacock (11) on vault; and Sarah Anderson (12) on the beam. These athletes com- bined graceful ballet with difficult moves, such as a double back tuck on the floor. Toni Manske happily stated. We have the potential to win state. There's a sense of unity between us. We re all good friends. In a duo meet against St. Louis Park. Sarah Anderson (12) combines grace with poise in her spectacular beam routine. GIRLS GYMNASTICS 95 Shooting Up A Storm Girls Baske tball- Cooperation and increasing talent are the factors which helped the girls basketball team to have an exciting season. Led by the contributions of co-cap-tains Bonnie Burke (12), and Martha Goldberg (12). the team had a successful season. Part of the reason was. as Patty Morris (11) said, We were all good friends, and we got along really well together. This year's team was tall compared to other teams and benefited from sopho more center Gretchen Freund who is 6'2 and Amy Hagstrom (11). who is 6'1 . Even though they had a lot of height, Edina came up against some tough opponents. One of their most difficult games was against St. Louis Park, which had al- ways been Edina's rival. The team agreed that Jefferson was the opponent in a particularly exciting game, in which Edina played its best and functioned well. The team, which called themselves the sweet squad , had activities off the court which helped them to maintain friendships. Not only did they have a secret Santa exchange where the name sweet squad first originated, but they also had a slumber party towards the end of the season. To get themselves psyched up for a game, the players often did things individually. Some players would simply go home and relax while watching television, while others would just sit quietly and think about the game, or even take a nap. Whatever the players did. they were fired up and ready to play when it was game time. After going through long practices everyday and having games two or three times a week, some players were dissapointed with attendance at home games. Jane Ha-mill (12) said. We had terrible attendance at most of our games. It really helps a lot to play when you know that a lot of people are cheering you on. The girls' basketball team certainly did deserve cheers, for they had a successful season and gained close friends. The team waits eagerly for the shot, hoping for a basket. 96 GIRLS BASKETBALL Katie Tanner (12) practices her shooting techniques, while warming up before a game.

Fifteen lucky girls were chosen for the varsity squad and twelve for the junior varsity squad. Andrea Swanson (11). Jennifer Merchant (II). and Deanna Gerdon (I I) concentrate on their warm-up at a cheerleading clinic. The year began with summer practices every day throughout August. Three laborious practices became mandatory to perfect timing and unity before school began. Along with practices, summer also brought many memories: Ann Rooney’s potluck, homemade cheers, the football picnic, and the soccer raid. The new school year arrived, and the cheering at pepfests and games, as well as giving treats and kisses to the soccer and football players, became routine. Creating spirit was a major goal for the cheerleading squad this year. Whether it was teaching a new cheer at a pepfest or encouraging the crowd with new megaphones. the cheerleaders never ceased their faithful support of our school’s spirit. Amy Johnson (II) looks happy as she learns the new victory cheer. CHEERLEADERS 99 Kicks ,’N Tricks ------?{jOAMii A---------- Being on the dance line was all I thought it would be and much more. replied Ann Johnson (11). The Edina Hornettes are known throughout the Midwest, and their popularity certainly shows. The Hornettes did much more than dance; it was a great opportunity to meet new friends and have a great time at the parties and potlucks. When asked what was different about the dance line this year, Elena Benakis (12) answered, “We re creating new steps and putting a little more boogie into our dances. A lot of work was put into the preparation of their dances. Summer practices involved long hours and hard training, but the final result was worth it. The Hornettes learned approximately twelve dances during the year and performed for football, soccer, basketball, pepfests, and at a home for retarded children called Rolling Acres. They also participated in a competition at the University of Wisconsin at Stout. The Hornettes have always been there to provide enjoyable entertainment for the sports crowds and players.

The Edina Boys’ Basketball team, coached by Bob Savre (fac.) jumped into the '84-’85 season with an outstanding start. Early in the season the team demanded the respect of both fans and sportswriters. Building a solid early season record, Savre and his team, led by seniors Ty Farley, Carl Torp, and Mark Fromke, and Jim Hurley, began with five straight Lake South victories. Coach Savre explained that “although we’re not as big as some other teams, we have a nice blend and work — Boy’s Basketball — hard.” The results of that Savre formula were wins over Mincctonka, St. Louis Park, Richfield. Kennedy, and Burnsville. A mid-season slump did not deter the fans, and neither did it lessen the Lake South conference respect for the Hornet five. After succumbing to Jefferson, Park, and Washburn, the team came back to defeat Cooper and Kennedy by 14 and 36 points, respectively. According to Coach Savre, two of the most well-played games of the season came on January 17th. against Kennedy, and February 15th, against Richfield. In the Richfield game, Torp and Farley combined for 34 points in a complete walkover that Edina won 75-39. The January 17th game against Kennedy was another dandy with Edina emerging as the victors again by a slim 1-point margin. Unfortunately Edina was eliminated in the semi-finals in the rcgionals. To sum up the season. Coach Savre believed that the team came into the year with uncertain expectations, but got off to a tremendous start and ended up with an outstanding year. They closed the season with the respect of all. A job well done! Greg Rose lets his fingers do the walking. Ty Farley shows his teammates on original move.

The highlight of their season was their second straight championship in the Edina Holiday Classic at the Met Sports 'center. The young hornet team, half being juniors, was led by captain Marty Nanne (12). I)can Williamson (12) led the team in scoring'. Jay Moore (11) also turned in a strong performance in the scoring department. Even though the hornets sometimes had problems putting the puck into the ----------------- Hockey ------------- net, scldomly did they have problems keeping the puck out of their own net. The main reason for this was the superb goal tending of Kurt W'olterstorff (12) who felt the victories over Kennedy and Jefferson at Bloomington were some of the highlights of the season. When asked how he felt about the season Greg Boner (12) said. “We had an up and down season. It was a winning season so I feel it was successful. When asked the same question Kurt Wolterstorff (12) said. “It was pretty good, we had some trouble because we were so young, but the seniors tried to pull together. Although our team did not make it to the State tournament this year, wc should have an excellent season next year with experienced players such as Peter Han-kinson (11), Keith Jungels (II). Bob Mendel (II). and Charlie Henrich (11), and with coaches Willard I kola and Bart I.ar-son at the helm again.

The girls' team started in August with practices lasting about two and a half hours each. The boys' team started in December with practices lasting about two hours. During practices the swimmers swam approximately 3500 yards, as Phil Young (12) said. It seems like a lot. but it was a small price to pay for success. This Edina swimmer dives Into another victory. Both teams did extra things together. The boys' team went to a house after a meet and watched a movie or just sat around and talked. Before the section meets they went out to breakfast together. The girls' team was a closely knit group and also did many special things together such as progressive dinners, giving gifts to a person after a good meet, and as Sara Bergman (10) said. On the day of a meet the team would dress a certain way and each person would recieve a flower from the team captains. After the season was over the team went on a trip to Lutsen together. Both teams were undefeated during the regular season and went on to win two more state titles for Edina. When asked to describe the overall season of the boys' team Phil Young said. It was a fulfilling year, we were a really close team and we had high hopes. All must agree the high hopes of both teams paid off.

BOYS GIR LS‘ SWIM MING 107 Pinning To Win While the hockey and basketball players play in front of large, cheering crowds, there is a group of dedicated, hard working athletes who participate in their sport solely for the thrill and excitement of it. These group of athletes were the members of the wrestling team. They practiced hard every day and had meets two or three times a week in hopes of achieving their goals. This year's team did very well, but it would have done better if more people Rod Vucenlch has Ns opponent tust where he wants him as he tries to pin him for more points would have joined the team. Matt Boiler (II) said, We had a good team, but if we had more people on the team, we would have done a lot better.” To participate in their sport, wrestlers need total dedication. Wrestlers must go through many grueling practices everyday. To prepare for a meet, many wrestlers cat close to nothing for three or four days before the meet so they can wrestle in a lighter weight group. They must also go through a rigourous training program to get in shape. Part of their training requires carrying another person on their back up three flights of stairs and lifting weights everyday. They also had to run to Bracmar Golf Course and back. After going through all of this, the wrestlers were in great shape and ready to compete. After all that hard work, some wrestlers were dissapointed at the attendance at their meets. Senior Troy Snikin said, the attendance at our meets wasn’t that good, but we still tried really hard.” Overall, the wrestling team had a fulfilling season and they accomplished a lot.

We’ve Got Spirit, Yes We Do! We’ve got spirit, yes we do. We’ve got spirit, how about you?” In past years, this particular cheer might have raised some question about school spirit at Edina High School, but this year there was no doubt about it: school spirit was at an all time high. To most of the student body, this demonstration of spirit was a new wave of enthusiasm sweeping through Edina High School, but to the administration, it did nothing but raise a great deal of controversy. At pepfests and athletic events, familiar cheers from past years were accompa- nied by these new demonstrations of spirit which included the wave, and the new cheers initiated by cheerleaders and individual students. Although some members of the faculty felt that the cheers, mainly the wave, showed little respect for the school and its athletes and coaches, the majority of the student body felt that these particular demonstrations of spirit showed an increased enthusiasm in the school itself. During the 1984-85 school year, more than ever before, students showed a greater respect for Edina High School by re- sponding to the school song and cheers for individual athletic teams and athletes. Many students felt that if certain cheers and demonstrations of school spirit were to be discouraged, pepfests would lose their true meaning to stimulate enthusiasm in the school. Senior Christy Neilson summarized the views of most Edina students by saying, I feel spontaneous cheers like the wave add excitement as well as spirit to pepfests and games, and when students get involved, it makes the events much more fun to go to!” SPORTS MINI-MAG 109 Giving A large portion of the success of Edina athletics was due to the Boosters. Led by President Dick Cohan, there were thirty-five board members and approximately four hundred and fifth patrons. “The main purpose of this organization was,” according to Edina Booster Kathy Rose, “to make money to augment the athletic programs. One could not walk through the lunch room without seeing a group of parents behind a table filled with various items. The sweat pants, hats, mittens, jerseys, and buttons aided in promoting Edina spirit and pride. Boosters were responsible for concessions at football games and organizing programs for home athletic A big part of the Edina athletic system is intramural sports. A total of fifty-one teams participated in one of four different sports: soccer, football, basketball, and softball. The soccer season begins with the onset of the school year. With the large turnout of ninety-six people, advisor Hack McCall (fac.) was forced to reduce the number of participants. Each team had to play three girls and three guys at the same time. McCall commented, “lt‘s good for guys to respect girls’ talent.” As for football, a whopping eighteen teams went out for this intramural sport, four of which consisted t of all girls. Countryside Park was the set- ting for the seven game season. You Name It rejoiced when they beat the “Smurfs for the championships. Mark Fromke (12), a member of “You Name It , stated, “We wanted to take on the Varsity Football Team, but we didn’t want Horsing Around While many fourth graders were still dreaming of having their own pony to ride, Molly Nelson (12) was just beginning to ride horses seriously. Ten years ago, she didn’t realize that horseback riding would turn into a serious and rewarding hobby for her. For this challenging sport, a great deal of practice and training is needed to produce successful results. At Jonathan Stables in Chaska, where Molly’s thoroughbred Bogart is boarded, she and her instructor John Kaneps put in hours of hard work striving toward perfection. Molly’s instructor, formerly from Latvia, used to jump horses on the international circuit Molly Nelson (12) and her thoroughbred Bogart jump to perfection. a Boost events. Edina athletes were familiar with the bi-annual bean feed dinner put on for the athletes, consisting of hot dogs, beans, and cake. All the money collected went for the athletic programs. Recently a record board was installed in the swimming pool area. The new all-weather track at Kuhl-man field was credited to the Boosters. They provided the state championship board that hangs in the high school gym. The Boosters goal was to contribute to each team equally in ways that would help the kids most. Selling Hornet paraphernalia is a rewarding job for Edina Boosters. For the Sport of It Intramural basketball players shoot for the top. and is now able to pass his valuable hints on to Molly. In order to prepare for jumping, Molly docs a lot of dressage and training on the flat, testing how compatible she and her horse are. She rides in both the hunt seat division, where only the horse is judged, and the hunt scat equitation, where both are judged. Molly’s largest and most rewarding show was the Lacrosse Annual Charity, in which she received second place on the national circuit. Her plans for the future include additional riding shows and honors. As she says, In order to compete successfully, you must put in a lot of time and dedication, but its all worth the effort.” to embarrass them. Kurt Johnson (fac.) has been involved with intramural basketball since 1960. His thirteen teams were divided into two leagues: the advanced players and the not-so-advanccd. They played on Tuesdays and Fridays. Dwight Larson (12), said basketball was a good way to meet people. Spring fever creates a fleeting desire to be outdoors. For the past seven years, about twelve teams have participated in softball. Many played “just for fun.” Intramural sports was successful for two basic reasons, it gives athletes a way to keep in condition and something fun to do with friends outside of school. Dave Sollie (12) said he played because “girls dig intramural soccer players. Football advisor Bennett Garner (fac.) referred to the fact that Edina has one of the top intramural programs in the nation. 110 SPORTS MINI-MAG On A Roll No, it is not figure skating that Noclle Robichon (12) is involved. No. its not even a roller derby. It’s the difficult and competitive sport of roller skating. Ever since she was ten years old. Noellc has been a serious roller skater, practicing at Cheap Skate roller rink in Minnetonka and Coon Rapids several times a week. What exactly is competitive roller skating? Although it is similiar to ice skating, there is much more involved. There arc four categories: freestyle, dance, speed, and roller hockey, all of which require hours of practice and hard work to reach perfection. As in all sports, there arc different levels of competition. When a skater wins in Regions, he or she becomes a Junior skater and must compete again to become a Senior skater. After a lot of training and dedication, a Senior skater may become a World class skater. There are nine teachers on the Cheap Skate staff who teach artistic skating and five different clubs which compete against one another. Noclle has competed in many local and out-of-state meets within the five state region, and in the June Rcgionals once a year. In addition, she has participated in several yearly shows put on by Cheap Skate which include such events as solo skating and skits.

Edina Hockey- A Classic This past December, Edina hockey fans were able to take a break from regular hockey action to attend the second annual Edina Holiday Hockey Classic at the Met Center. When the four best prep teams in the state got together for the two night classic, not only did the fans witness exciting hockey action, but also a lot of tough competition. With the 1984 state championship title in their hands, the Edina Hornets were faced with an additional challenge at the Holiday Hockey Classic. The other top-ranked teams, Bloomington Jefferson, Hill Murray, and White Bear Lake, had to attack The Edina Hornets a bit harder knowing that they were challenging the 1984 state champs. With only seven returning Icttcrmen from last year’s team and several new varsity players, the Hornets were, in a sense, testing their ability against other top state teams. After a victory over White Bear Lake and a tic against top-rated Hill-Mur-ray, the Hornets won the Edina Holiday Hockey Classic for the second consecutive year and brought home an additional trophy. Despite tough competition, the Hornets won the Holiday Classic for the second consecutive year. Overall, the Classic won favorable opinions from players, coaches, and fans alike. As senior player Greg Boner acknowledged. The Holiday Hockey Classic was a good experience for the whole team. It was our first real challenge of the season, and we fared pretty well. The tournament gives exposure to all the players, and winning it helped our team with a boost of confidence.” Athletic Boosters Intramural Sports Noelle Robichon Hockey Classic Karate For Kicks What is the first thing that comes to a person’s mind when they hear the word karate? Most people may think of a violent sport shown on “Kung-Fu”, where people go around kicking and chopping each other in their spare time. But. to people who participate in the sport, it is a nonviolent, intriguing and exciting sport. Traev Hoffman (12) is one karate expert who has determination and skill to become anything she wants to be. She has a brown belt in Shorin-Ryu and a green belt in Chinese Kempo and is working for a black belt in both of these areas. Her sister got her interested in karate four and a half years ago and now she takes lessons and practices two to three times a week. She has won many awards for her achievements, including competition in the 1984 state tournament and winning first place in her division for fighting. Tracy thinks of karate as a release from pressure. She said, “It really helps me a lot to relieve stress that the pressures of high school cause. After high school. Tracy plans to go to California to train with the best karate school, and then she plans to open her own karate studio to teach other people the sport. No matter what she wants to do, Tracy is sure to end up at the top. After gaining the green belt in Chinese Kempo.

Pacy Erck (fac.) who grew up in the Morningside area and has taught health, revealed her answer: “athletics, she confided. “were Aimed at having fun when I was in high school and there was not as much pressure to perform as there is today. Almost all the sports were intermural back then. Students would make up their own teams and compete against friends. While today, there were archery and bowling teams, as well as the greatly popular badmitton. However, Edina was notinvolved in track or gymnastics. Reminiscent Miss Erck said, “We generally played twice a week after school, then everyone would head of Bridgeman’s for ice MIm P«cy Erck. allumni. of Edina High School, stands before Edina's packed trophy case and contemplates its accomplishments. cream. Another interesting aspect of the sports scene was that teachers formed teams and competed against the kids. If anyone was interested in competing in sports outside of Edina, the P.E. teachers would hold one day try-outs. Practices started about a week before competition. To be a cheerleader involved tryouts in front of the entire student body, which would be the ultimate judge in choosing squad members. Miss. Erck, once a cheerleader for Edina and now the advisor, has always been interested in sports. To this day she holds the woman’s record for the softball throw at Edina. She likes the fact that Edina stresses athletics, yet she feels bad that so much of the pleasure has been lost due to intense competition. 112 SPORTS MINI-MAG On The Right Track Have you ever tried to run in the mud? It’s not easy, and now it’s not necessary. Because of drainage, soil and other problems, the old track at Kuhlman stadium was replaced by an eight-lane, synthetic surface delight. This new track has retained its spring and durability through a broad range of weather and it has resisted mud and slush. Track coach Larry Johnson (fac.) commented. “We are extremely pleased to finally have an all weather track.” He also noted that Edina was one of the last schools in the Lake Conference to obtain one. At a cost of over S200.000. funding was important. Edina Boosters contributed S20.000. and the Edina Foundation donated $10,000 to the project. The rest came through community taxes. Many athletes A Touch Of Grace When ambitious people have goals set in their minds, they will often do everything possible to achieve those ideals. That is true in the ease of Karen Belrose (12), who is figure skating her way to the top. Her goal was to complete her eighth figure test, which she is currently working on. When that examination is passed successfully, it indicates that a figure skater is a far advanced as possible, and that level of proficiency is exactly what Karen Belrose has achieved. Her mother started her skating on Saturday mornings. Now she practices every day for three hours, in hopes of passing her test. Her plans later in life include teaching figure skating to younger children. When asked who has assisted her the most for her figure skating, she replied, “My coach Dede Hensill has helped me a lot, along with my parents. have already reaped the benefits of this expensive addition to the field. The cross-country and track teams used it as well as phy-cd classes. Despite its attractions, there have been complaints concerning the track. Homecoming floats were not allowed on the synthetic surface, and court members were required to wear tennis shoes with their formal attire. Mike Lagario (12) said in dismay, “It completely ruined Homecoming. Only time can reveal additional benefits or disadvantages of the new track. The new all weather track. Senior Karen Belrose displays her grace on the ice. Scolt Harrold (12) demonstrates his responsibilities. Just Managing Scott Harrold (12) was the student manager of the Varsity football team. When asked how he became the student manager, he replied. “I talked to the coach and the coach talked to me. Scott wanted the job so he could help the team be or-gainzed and so he could practice on his photography by taking pictures of the games for the team. Scott has many responsibilities, such as taping ankles, helping to boost the teams morale before the tames, and making sure all of the equipment was working properly. As the student manager of the football team, Scott devoted a great deal of time to his job, and his effort showed. Tracy Hoffman Pacy Erck All-Weather Track Karen Belrose Scott Harrold This Bud’s For You A New Beginning “The organization and responsibility has improved tremendously in the cheerleaders this year.” commented Pacy Erck, cheerlcading advisor. Many things were changed this year in cheerlcading, one such thing was the style. “Our cheers needed to be more precise. Cheers are to lead the spectators, not for show only, continued Ms. Erck. To accomplish a new style of cheering, the cheerleaders spent long hours attending clinics in which they were taught cheers. Because of the strain on their feet, the girls’ shoes were also changed to help prevent injuries. For the first time, Edina held tryouts for the winter session. This was to allow girls to participate in cither fall or winter sports. Depending upon its success, this may or may not be continued next year. Also for the first time, a male cheerleader was introduced, Tim Fulford (12). He was a great asset to cheerlcading this year, showing both leadership and the desire to effectively bring spirit to the crowds. The 1984-85 cheerleaders went through many changes and their hours of work were appreciated by all. Katie Donohue (12) demonstrates the new precise ' style of cheer leading. As spectators of sports, Edina students didn't realize the huge behind the scenes effort that went into arranging each game. Headed by Bud Bjcrkcn (fac.), the athletic coordinators had a difficult job to accomplish. Setting up the sports schedules was an ongoing process. Monthly meetings were held in the Lake Conference to discuss schedule possibilities. In addition, Mr. Bjcrkcn arranged numerous non-conference games. Coordinators were also responsible for hiring coaches, since the rate of assistant coach turnover was quite rapid. Facilities had to be prepared, as well; for example, football fields had to be maintained in working condition. This also involved buying new uniforms, and equipment. and hiring officials. This big responsibility, which included the junior high, required not only time but money. Coordinators worked with an approximate SI50.000 budget, including such costs as S6.000 for ice time and $10,000 for miscellaneous equipment. Mr. Bjerken referred to his job as exciting and always something new to deal with. He emphasized that the program didn’t run by itself, but that it required the work of a lot of people to keep up Edina’s winning tradition. At his desk m the athletic office.

Fulford’s First Split For the first time in the history of Edina checrlcading, the spirited voice of a male cheerleader echoed through the crowds and sports events. This rousing voice belonged to innovated Senior Tim Fulford. Tim had wanted to be a cheerleader last year, but various reasons prevented his idea from blooming. He felt the students needed someone to organize more school spirit and to get the crowd involved. During the summer. Tim attended the cheerleading practices to work on stunts with the other cheerleaders and to learn the Edina cheers. He had also talked to Pacy Erck. the cheerleading advisor, who loved the idea and was all for it. His authenticity and acceptance by the other cheerleaders did not seem to come until he was photographed in the group pictures. Tim was a big asset to the cheerleading program this year, inspiring more people to get up and cheer their teams on to victory. His contribu tion to the birth of a new tradition of male cheerleading has been appreciatively 'ecognized. The Edina girls’ gymnastics team benefited from the talents of many fine gymnasts. and Tiffany Utcndorfer (10) was one of those. She has been active in gymnastics for eleven years and has never taken a break from it. Tiffany has been in many competitions from which she has won thirty-five awards and 110 medals. She is one of the best girls on the team , commented a team member I.cxi Reed (10). In her spare time. Tiffany loves to coach. As two of her favorites, the beam and bars arc what she performs best on. Although the Olympics had been on her mind, she felt there was more to her life than just gymnastics. Tiffany’s goals for the sport arc to continue competing through college and win state individually. As her talent and desires reveal them- selves. gymnastics will certainly persist to be a part of Tiffany Utcndorfcr’s high school and college life. Hockey manager Todd A rend (II) lends a helping hand to the varsity hockey team. A Helping Hand Have you ever wondered who managed the varsity hockey team? Who took care of injured players and whose organizational skills became a tremendous asset to the team? It was Todd Arend (11), the 1984-85 student manager of the Hornets. Todd had been interested in the job for a long lime, and when questioned on how he became the student manager, he replied. ‘‘In ninth grade I asked Coach Ikola about the managing job and if I could someday be the manager. Of the few who asked for the position, I guess my name was chosen.” Todd had a variety of organizational responsibilities such as sharpening skates, issuing and keeping track of jerseys, and taking charge of general first aid, all of which were needed to maintain the Edina traditions. According to Todd, his desire to be involved in the hockey program was because, “hockey is the main grain of Edina, and I wanted to be a part of it.” He gained personal satisfaction from his job this year, and in doing so he gave the team a much-needed helping hand. Bodies By Nautilus Y h As a firm believer in the power of exercise. Ilolly Gustafson (12) works with tremendous vigor on building up her biceps. Mary Kolackc (12) works out daily to firm. tone, and develop her leg muscles which is imperative to her success in track and soccer. Despite tradition, going to basketball games or movies were not the only things to do on weekends. For Mary Kolacke (12) and Holly Gustafson (12), the Nautilus Club in Bloomington provided great recreation. They lifted weights or did aerobics three times a week. Although there were different levels of aerobics, they all followed the same basic plan. Holly and Mary spent the first ten minutes stretching out and warming up. This was followed by twenty minutes of jogging, kicks, and jumping jacks. The next exercises emphasized the stomach, legs, and hips. The last ten minutes were spent doing “cool-downs” which arc similar to warm ups. This workout was interrupted twice to check heart rates. Holly and Mary enjoyed exercising to popular music. According to Holly, aerobics “built one's endurance and provided a good total body work out.” After the strenuous exercises. Holly and Mary moved over to the nautilus equipment, which was designed to tone and firm-up one’s muscles. A trained instructor took them through each machine and kept track of their measurements in order to check their progress. Mary's reason for lifting weights was “to keep in shape for track.” Lastly, when they had time, Holly and Mary relaxed in a soothing swim. They commented, “We think that along with a good diet this program will help keep us active, young, and healthy. 116 Splash It’s true that most of us have wanted one of our exceptional talents to be “discovered. And, it’s equally true that it rarely happens. However, Janna Weigold (11), was an exception to the rule. When Janna was eleven years old she was “discovered” for her excellent diving ability, and she has been practicing and improving ever since. It happened at the country club her family belonged to while living in New York. The coach of the country club’s diving team saw Janna bouncing off the boards. Since the team had a meet the next day and was short of members he asked her if she would participate in the meet. The two practiced the whole day before the competition, and the next day Janna took first place. After winning the meet she signed with the team. This was just the very beginning of Janna’s journey toward becomming the best diver she could be. Janna has belonged to the West Suburban Diving Team and has attended practice seven days a week for three hours. Being a top diver on this team has had its advantages because it has sent her to meets throughout this country, including Florida and Maine, and also to Canada. It has also given Janna the chance to meet great Olympic divers. SPORTS MINI-MAG Although her schedule may have seemed rigorous, it was worth it. In fact, Janna competed in nationals last summer. First she went to Nebraska to compete in pre-quals (the competition to place in nationals) where she preformed eleven dives on the three meter, or high board. Some of the dives she performed were the front two and a half pike, the back two and a half tuck, the inward two and a half tuck, and the back one and a half twist. The top seven competitors, Janna being one of them, went on to nationals in California, where she received an honorable mention. The top three divers at nationals went on to dive at the Junior Olympics, where Janna hopes to compete this summer. From the Junior Olympics the top divers go on to join the Olympic Diving Team. However, Janna states that to be a member of the diving team ”... you have to devote your life to it. Plus, if I was on the team I’d like to move to Mission Vcihjo, California to get better training because they have one of the best diving teams. Although diving is a rigorous sport it does have its benefits. Janna has been offered diving scholarships to Fordham University and Columbia University, both in New York. I — Janna Weigold (II) perform a front-onc-and-a-half twist at one of her numerous diving meets. Winterfest Often times during this past winter, students were overcome with burdensome homework, shoveling of snow-covered driveways, and just the ordinary mid-year blahs. However, for many there was a solution. With a great deal of excitement, students grabbed their favorite tobaggan. ice skates and winter weather gear and ran outside to partake in various winter sports activities for which Minnesota is known. Whether it was building a snowman, sliding down a big hill, having a snowball fight, or ice skating with a group of friends, winter time activities brought a sparkle to the eyes of almost every Edina student. What a perfect way to escape from the indoors. Books were left unopened, homework undone, and driveways unshovclcd. as students migrated to the outdoors to enjoy the winter months. Senior Robin Buzby summarized the views of some students by commenting, “Often this winter when 1 was doing Calculus in the living room, I would look out the window and this sudden urge to put on my snowmobile suit would overtake me. I could always count on Sarah Anderson to meet me in the backyard with her igloo-maker or by the trees to chuck ice-balls at old ladies driving by in station wagons.” As winter began to draw to a close, the snowman in the front yard began to shrink in size, bare grass appeared in places where formerly there had been snow, and ice rinks and lakes, turned into a mass of puddles, it was evident that the signs of spring were in the air. No longer were students leaving their homework and responsibilities behind to frolic in the snow, but instead, thoughts of spring and the summer activities to follow began to replace the Minnesota winter in their minds. Terry McLellun (II) enjoys making angels in the snow. Anchors Away While some people enjoyed leisure sailing at Lake Harriet this past summer, Wes Weber (10) took the sport seriously. Wes took an interest in sailing at the age of six when his dad began teaching him on a lake in New Jersey. After his family moved to Minnesota with their seventeen foot Na-cra catamaran, Wes decided to pursue this water activity further. Wes Weber (10) sails his catamaran on Lake Minnetonka. This ferry won't create an obstacle for Wes’ catamaran. He and his father practiced and raced on Green Lake, which is near Waconia. His father’s job was to control the rudder and the main sail while Wes’ job as the crew was to work the trapeze and the jib. A fleet of fifteen to twenty catamarans raced against each other at one time. Wes’ crew has won several races. When asked why Wes took up this hobby he replied, “I love to be around water. The other crew members arc really fun and the competition is a good challenge for me.” Nautilus Workout Janna Weigold Winter Sports Wes Weber Synchronicity While some sports have been around for decades, a relatively new sport has emerged and is slowly rising in popularity. That sport is synchronized swimming, and after the United States won the first gold medal in this sport at the 1984 summer Olympics, it is gaining momentum. For those who are not acquainted with the sport, synchronized swimming consists of swimmers who perform to music, cither individually or with another person. If a swimmer is performing as a double with a partner, they both must perform their steps with perfect synchronization. Some people think of synchronized swimming simply as a form of water ballet, but in reality it is a tough and demanding sport. The swimmers have long, grueling practices and must be in great shape to perform. They also must be very strong and must be able to hold their breath un- der water for a minute or more while performing their moves. If a person is in a duct, she and her partner must practice endlessly to achieve perfect form. Over the past few years, Edina has had a talented synchronized swimming team, but the only problems arc the smallness of the team and the lack of cheering fans at meets. Barb Huff (12) said, “The attendance at most of our routines is not very good, but at our meets we sometimes get packed attendance, which helps a lot. If less people would treat synchronized swimming as water ballet, and more people would try out for the team, Edina could become a contender in this sport. Overall, synchronized swimming is an exciting athletic activity which requires strongly dedicated athletes as in any other sport. This Syncro swimmer practices a diflicult underwater move. Both strength and agility are required in syncronised swimming, as is proved by these two swimmers. Recognition The hours of practice that Ty Farley (12) puts into basket ball can be seen in his game. Is it fair that some athletic teams practice twice as long as other teams yet they don’t get half the recognition? This year the Edina hockey teams were released from school after fifth hour to go practice for two hours. All winter everyone talked about hockey and how hard they practiced. What about the other teams who practiced long hours yet no one knew how they did during their season or in some eases, didn’t even know they existed? The slalom ski teams practiced two and a half hours a day, however, as Kit Brown (12) said, “Compared to hockey, I don’t feel we got the recognition we deserved.” The girls gymnastic team also practiced long hours and even on Saturday, yet over half the students at our school didn't even know they went to State. When asked how she felt about the comparison of hockey and gymnastics Tiffany Litendorfer (10) said, “We practiced just as hard as hockey did, but we never got any special privileges like they did.” Hockey is fun to watch and it is alright to love hockey, but next year let’s try to give the other teams a little more appreciation. The Edina Hornet hockey player stops the puck. L 118 SPORTS MINI-MAG Skiing To While most students spend their weekends relaxing or catching up on some sleep, there arc a few athletes who spend all of their time, including weekends participating in their sport. Skiicr Lance Lar-ivee (10) is one of those dedicated athletes. Lance started seven years ago when his father took him skiing. He thought it was so much fun and excitement that he wanted to continue skiing. He has been racing competitively for five years and is becoming better everyday. His best area is slalom and his giant slalom is continuing to improve. He practices everyday for three hours and races on the weekends. Like most skiicrs, Lance races throughout the entire season. His season starts around December, depending on the snow, and can go into March. During the season on almost every weekend, he races competitively. He believes that the MidAmerican races arc the best because the competition is so great at those'races. Not all of the elite races arc run in Minnesota, so he often has to travel to Michigan and Wisconsin to compete. Ridem’ Have you ever dreamed of living in the Old West- with the fun of dressing up in leather stirrups and a cowboy hat, and the chance to jump on a horse and ride away into the sunset? Many of us have, while day-dreaming during a commercial break between Gunsmokc or Bonanza. Senior Don Curtis has been able to live that dream for the past five years since his first riding lesson. Don has been riding his own quarter horse Tuffy for the past three and a half years. His horse is kept at Pat Jenson’s Don ( urtis (12) trots his horse Tuffy around the ring. Stables where Don also rides and breaks in young colts. Dons intense interest in horses has led to his experience with rodeos. In his sophomore year in high school Don participated actively in rodeos, riding bareback on broncos and buck horses The horses didn’t wear saddles, but just had a hr-nd grip secured around their bellies. The object was to stay on the bucking horses for eight seconds, and then scoring would begin. Don succeeded to stay on for eight seconds one time, which is trucly an accomplishment riding on such an unruly animal. The competition was tough, but it was mostly between myself trying to improve my own scores, stated Don. The only rodeo training Don had was through clinics presented by old rodeo champs and the rodeos themselves. “Living in Edina makes it hard to practice for rodeos because there aren’t any stock contractor stables around here; the closest ones are in Staples, Minnesota, commented Don. Because of a broken wrist Don had to quit the rodeo circuit, but he plans to compete again when he is in college. Stardom Skiing is not like most sports, where the more you participate, the more you improve. Some skiicrs have found that one year they arc doing really well, but then the next year they arc only average. Lance thinks that one of his better years was a few years ago, but this last season was his best yet. Lane’s realistic goal is to possibly someday go to the nationals at Cooper Mountain, Colorado. When asked who was the one person who has most influenced his skiing, he replied, “I think my Dad has, because he taught me and started me skiing when I was younger.” Overall, Lance is an excellent skiicr and probably someday end up at the top. Showing his skill and coordination, Lance Larhcc (10) skies around a gate during practice. Cowboy 120 ACADEMICS Academics What is one of the first things that comes to mind when one mentions the school of Edina? Most people think of our strong academic program. At Edina High School, students try for the best, simply because the school offers the best. Kids were given the opportunity to enroll in more challenging courses to achieve their goals. Calculus, Enriched American Literature, and Advanced Placement European History were a few of the many classes suggested to students who sought them out. Our highly educated, helpful, and well-informed faculty members pushed their classes just a little bit more than most teachers one found elsewhere. Their aims were the same as the students: to maintain our reputation as being one of the best public education institutions in the country. Edina’s excellence in education was seen in a number of ways during the school year. In August, 1984, our school was one of the 114 top schools honored by President Reagan in Washington D.C. The class of 1985 contained 14 National Merit Scholarship Semifinalists. These high achievers scored in the top percents on their SAT MNSQT tests. A large per- For students with artistic talents, Edina High School offered an array of courses designed to cultivate these traits. Under the headings of Art, Industrial Arts, and Home Economics came classes like Life Issues. Photo Offset, and Sculpture. Edina students took advantage of these courses, which helped to put EHS another step ahead ..........................page 124. With Edina being the strong academic institution that it is. undoubtedly competition for grades among students was high. It was not uncommon to sec anxious kids comparing report cards in hopes of having a greater GPA than their desk partner. Students strove for the best, tried their hardest, and usually achieved the highest ............................... page 128. To keep up with the “Computer Age,” Edina High School offered some additional classes in the mathematics department, including Microcomputers I and II. The computers were used in other math courses as well: to find and plot linear points on a graph, to discover the three millionth digit of pi, or just to have a little fun.............................page 130. Who made decisions concerning the well-being of Edina High School? How did the school receive funds and purchase textbooks, desks, and chairs. The Edina Board of Education, made up of nine members, carried out these tasks, in addition to many others. The Board’s members were elected on a three-year term by the citizens of Edina ..............page 138. ccntage of the student body took other college qualifying tests, including SATs, ACTs, and achievement tests. These exams were used by many to continue their educational program by going on to college after graduation. When one views Edina High School, one secs that the EHS student is a person who strives to be the best. Edina offers students a chance to fulfill this goal, by presenting strong courses and challenging programs. In academics, it is easy to see why the Edina High School student is a step ahead. ACADEMICS 121 ------ LANGUAGE ARTS ------ The Art Of Language In order for F.dina's seniors to earn their diplomas upon graduation, they must have acquired at least six language arts credits. Fortunately F.dina students had a variety of language art classes to choose from, ranging from Communications Lab and Mass Media to Words Literature and Efficient Reading. One semester each of composition and co-munications was required of all sophomores. Composition class was remembered for its weekly vocabulary tests. Noun and Verb Usage Tests, and of Course, for many tenth graders, their first nightmarish term paper, footnotes included. To acquire the communications credit many sophomores could be found in Public Speaking. Argumentation and Persuasion, or Acting and Stagecraft.

Art Induscrial Arts — Domestic Diversions What if there wasn't any way for stu -dents at Edina High School to learn how to cook, sew, build or appreaciate art so that they wouldn't become cultural and domestic boors? Luckily such a question needn't be answered at Edina, thanks to the existence of industrial arts, home economics, and art courses. Industrial arts courses allowed students to learn and apply practical skills in the fields of metals, woods, technical drawing, and graphic arts. Woods classes, by far the most popular, set students to work on constructing boxes, cabinets. and chests. In the metals workshops, students built tool boxes and hammers, while the graphic arts classes taught students to express themselves in print. On a similar note, home economics courses helped teach several modes of expression. Stu • dents learned child care, consumer education, nutrition and the skills of sewing and cooking.

Creating masterpieces was one of the main objectives of art classes. The hands-on class of ceramics, where students learned the techniques of shaping, firing, and glazing clay, was one of the more materialistic ans taught at Edina. Senior Jeff Sullwold said. It's a good blowoff class. but added that. I really want to be a potter. Painting and printmaking was also a good class for those who wanted to express the artist within them by creating unique paintings and prints. All in all. these classes enriched people's lives by teaching them practical skills in an typical way. The quintessential attitude of students in those classes was best described by Marti Orchrd (10) who said, I thought it was fun. Lisa Hucttl (12).

Vo-Tech DECA GEAR One of the many reasons Edina High School was so highly respected was the ability of the school to offer something for every student. Three special programs were GEAR. Vo-tech. and DECA. GEAR (Goals Encourage Academic Responsibility) was a class with a very relaxed group atmosphere. The students met for one hour a day and either worked on their own. or participated in group discussions. The staff of GEAR consisted of five members. which allowed the staff and students to understand each other on a personal level. They treated each student as an individual and worked together to help each student to set goals for the future. It was then up to the student to work toward their goals. Vo-tech (Vocational Technical Schools) had many opportunities for the students of Edina High School. After taking the required academic subjects in the morning, students boarded the bus and went to Vo-tech where they worked to dvelop skills toward their future occupations. They were given the chance to have hands-on experience with professionals in their area of interest. The DECA (Distributive Education Gubs of America) program gave students the chance to enter the work field. Students received credits for working instead of taking elective classes, and received a pay check for working during school hours. The job would coincide with their future plans for employment. These programs helped many students discover themselves and their talents while going through high school. Lee Wicmgc.Jo Anne North.Jim Belrose, Pat Chaycr, Mike Wolf.

Competition SCENE: Homeroom, Monday morning. It is the moment of truth. The teacher walks slowly, up and down the aisles. Your life (or death) is in his hands. Time stands still. Finally the teacher reaches your desk. He hands it to you. Should you look at it now or wait until breakfast has settled? You decide to get it over with: afterall, how could you resist, when hours and hours, plus a few packages of NO-DOZ went into the effort for nine long weeks. Yes. you guessed it, it’s report card day! Competition at Edina was a vital part of school life. Many students participated daily in competing for a variety of things. They battled-it-out in fashion for the wildest haircut or the grooviest outfit. Athletics were an area with much competition. The jocks at Edina sweated and strived in their best attempts to break previous school records, whether it was track, football, soccer, or volleyball. The one area that students competed in most enthusiastically was academics. Most students competed with a really positive attitude about school, wanting to succeed in their classes. However, sometimes this immense urge to succeed led to devious and dishonest methods of achievement. Not much of it went on though, because students knew, they were only hurting themselves.” SURE! Enough has been said about wandering eyes and frantic forgery. The teachers at Edina tried to motivate and inspire the students. They were well-informed about their subjects and were prepared to answer any questions posed by dillegcnt students. When a student entered the high school, nothing but a mere sophomore, he had no idea what he would be up against: one thousand nine hundred and sixteen others, competing for excellence, and preparing to face the big, wide world after high school, all wanting to be a step ahead. 128 COMPETITION Molly Nelson (12) is up to her old tricks again, bribing Mr. Sa re (fac) for an A Margot Me Crath (10) dreams of that high grade point average.

He was taking advanced placement courses in math while still in Junior high. During the ‘84-‘85 school year he took a calculus class at the University of Minnesota. He said that most high schools cover in a year what would be covered the first quarter of a college class. However, in Edina's case, the amount taught is equal to two and a half quarters in college. Paul said that the reason he likes math is because it helps him in other classes such as physics, chemestry, and economics. He said Edina's calculus classes, compared to other high schools is quite above average. Paul enjoys math and certainly has the talent to go places with it. He hopes to find a career involving math, perhaps in engineering, physics or computer science. In hit Algebra II class. Mike Hoff (11) confidently finishes up a problem on determinants.

Math Scicncc When one thinks of math, one might think of new because you arc always faced with problems that you have never seen before. Math has been around longer than you think. David Larson (fac), who was the math area leader at Edina High School, says that some of the postulates alone date back before Christ. He says that even though math has been around a while, it is always being developed. The basis of math is problem solving. Larson says that certain skills need to be applied to math problems. A diagram or chart should be drawn to represent the information given. Drawing a sketch to represent the problem, looking for patterns in the problem, working it backwards, acting it out, or talking it over with a friend are some of the skills that should be used. Math has always been an important subject. Larson says the reason math is so important is because it is useful, and it is a chance to solve In order to cslculste the moist miss of this csrimel bsr.

To solve a problem you've seen before is just an exercise, but to apply your techniques to solve a problem that you have never seen before is what is really important. Although no science is required at Edina High School, according to Don Meyer (fac), head of the science dept. 95 of the students chose to take science this year. Because so many students choose to take a science class, the school provided 20 sections of Biology, 17 sections of Chemistry, and 8 Physics sections. While providing students with knowlage. science courses also provided many memories. Who could forget Chemistry with Mr. Griffin (fac), which required unfortunate juniors to taste acids all the way up to HCL. And what of Mr. Ehlert's Grandpa Green and Grandfather White? And recall if you will, the stench of formaldihide still fresh in your nostrils as you begin to eat lunch. Who said science wasn't fun? The popularity of science and math proved that Edina's students were willing to take risks academicly. MATH SCIENCE 131 ■ Physical Education Heakh — Working Out 1 wo required classes endured by all sophomores were Health and Physical Education. The skills learned in these classes were the kind that one remembered. They proved that it was possible to have fun and learn at the same time. One could never guess what was going to happen next in health class. Activities ranged from bandaging fellow students to giving the “hug of life, a concept designed to extract food particles lodged in the windpipe. Everything you ever needed to know about saving a classmate in distress could be learned in Health. One of the units remembered by all was Death Education. After students had learned about the process of mourning in class, they took a trip to a morgue to increase their knowledge of death. Overall, health was an interesting experience. Physical Education class had sopho- mores flexing their muscles. Sports such as football, soccer, basketball, softball, and archery were competed in until the teacher had decided upon a grade, or the students had had enough! Gym gave hyper sophomores a chance to run around and release their frustrations. Physical Education gave new meaning to the phrase, “A little fun couldn’t hurt anyone. Although these two classes became an integral part of the daily life of sophomores, many believed that they would soon forget the content of these classes. Any senior will tell you that this is not true. Memories of the unique classes of Health and Phy Ed last forever. Alter Completing his Health t iirk. this sophomore smiles in relief.

The arrow leaves your bow, cuts through the still morning air, and pierces the center of the target. It’s a bull’s eye! The ultimate goal in the challenging sport of archery. Archery was the physical education unit that could be looked forward to. Unlike other physical education units, archery challenged concentration and the ability to keep a steady hand, rather than endurance and strength. However, this test was not as easy as it seemed. One simple thought lapse or the twitch of a finger could send the arrow yards away from where it was originally intended to go. But with practice, a student may have been able to hit the bull’s eye — say — two of twenty times! There was always room for improvement. Archery was also full of added bonuses.. Once a student had mastered hitting the little red circle in the middle of the target, hc she could move on to bigger and better things — hunting wild game, perhaps? Or maybe an exterminating job at OR KIN. Whatever one planned to do in future life, one’s archery unit at Edina could do nothing but help.

He filled the heads of his A.P. European History students with many helpful hints on how to take notes, write essays, and more importantly how to use a higher level of thinking. He did this through a series of essay tests, several writing assignments, and lectures which through humor were more stimulating than the regular lecture format. His hopes were, That at the end of the year my students would like history, respect it, and consider it as part of their college careers.” Mr. He«ig (fac) advises his students on how to prepare for the A P. European History test. Mike Bohn (It) watches mournfully as the teacher adds more notes to the already crowded board 134 SOCIAL STUDIES ■ Social Studies ———■— Consider The Past Mr. Fredrickson (fac) gesture eint'futmlly to his American History class j he describe the I'reat ot Paris Upon reaching tenth grade, sophomores may have thought that their social studies careers were over and they would never have to take another social studies class. From experience, juniors and seniors knew better. Juniors knew through experience that those unsuspecting sophomores would continue in social studies with American History or A.P. American History in their junior year. In these classes students were given a mature look at how their country was founded and upon what principles it was based. But, although our country’s past is important, some students had a different aspect. As one student, Eric Weber (11), put it, Our country’s past is important but it’s future is important, too. We should be considering the future as part of our learning, also. As students became seniors, they started learning about what's going on now and what could happen in the future in such classes as Contemporary Social Problems and Economics. In the former of the two, the students discussed some of the problems in our society today, such as the environment, poverty, and most importantly how to solve them. One senior, Lisa Silverman (12), said, I think it’s important that people are aware of what's going on around them and how problems are solved in our society today. In addition to these required classes there were elective social studies classes that any E.H.S. student could take. These classes included European History, A.P. European History. World Studies I and World Studies II. World Studies. I. dealing with the history of Western civilization, began with the Rennaissance period and ended in the present day. World Studies II was an area study of the Middle East and Asia. Miss Bartholct (fac.), a history teacher, felt it was important for students to take these courses because, The world today is interdependant and in order to be equipped to handle other people you're going to have to know something about their history, culture, government and language.” Boyd Hesdorffer (11) looks quirrically mi Mr. Fredrickson (fac) as he tries to comprehend the notes Mr. Hcnig's (fac) A.P European History class tries to decipher his enigmatic notes. SOCIAL STUDIES 135 Excellence Student pride was at its highest on September 13th, when Joan Standlee, deputy assistant secretary for the United States Department of Education, presented Edina High School with a flag and plaque commemorating Edina’s representation of “Excellence in Education.” Edina High School was chosen to be honored because of the great number of students enrolled in upper-level courses, its advanced placement problem, and the college prep courses offered. Seven success indicators were evaluated during on-site visits and through written reports. The indicators were based on stu- dent academic performance and behavior, student attendance rates, and awards for outstanding school programs and teaching. The flag is on display in the office for all to sec. Even though some individuals were afraid to admit it, the excellence in education award had affected everyone. Hardly a teacher could be found that did not proudly display the commemorative pin on his or her lapel. The good example set by the teachers who wore these pins increased everyone’s pride. Even News 11 wanted a piece of the action and spent a day filming some common events at Edina High to share with the twin cities. Students shared in the pride and enjoyment and looked to the future. “The award lets us know we’re being educated well. Colleges will recognize this and take a closer look at us. said Jack Duchow (10). The effects of the Excellence in Education award may benefit the students most. Once again, Edina has set remarkable standards of education for the entire country. It is likely in the coming years that Edina will remain a step ahead in academic achievement. A symbol of our EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION. 136 EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION Excellence in education take extra effort as Mr. Anderson recognizes as he helps Susan Kissner 12 with her work.

EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION 137 Nancy Gleason rakes time out to pet herself a little refreshment Overboard When asked about what the Board of Education does, not many Edina High School students knew. Most thought that the school board did not do anything that directly affected them. But, further research proved this untrue. Some of their activities included establishing property tax levies, establishing a budget for the year, evaluating itself in terms of the performance of their jobs, adopting new textbook materials, congratulating National Merit Scmfinalists, and reviewing a study of chemical use by students in Edina and Rich-field. This study found that Edina students use less marijuana and alchohol than other suburban students studied. An important part of this study was the First Use data. Kids are doing their experimenting later in Edina, said Steven Lepinski, a student at the University of Minnesota and the man who did the study. The Board of Education consisted of nine members headed by a chairperson, Nancy Atchison, whom the board elected at the beginning of the year. Some of their strategic goals this year were to look at grading policies, look at the district’s personnel policies in terms of morale, and hold the tradition of keeping the Edina schools excellent. The reason why Edina schools are so excellent, said vice chairperson Robert Christianson, is that we are very fonunatc in having a good staff, good teachers, and good students.

He found that his major task was to deal with getting the best teachers, best books, and best resources for the students, to seek out the best opportunities for them, and provide a positive environment for learning. He also tried to get ahead of the new trends such as microtechnology so that students would be ready for the future. He was also required to deal with people who had problems with the school or any new, unusual situations that were brought to his attention. When asked about why Edina schools are so excellent he commented. It starts with the quality of the students. The quality of the students in Edina is special. We have sharp, bright students and a quality staff. We have financial resources for materials and we have an extremely supportive community who is very willing to give their time and their talent to our schools.” Dr. Ralph Licbcr smiles as James Moc pnises him on a fob well done.

Some of his fondest memories included the opening of Edina West (1974). and the merging of East and West (1981), and the awards that the students and the faculty have both received. Upon asking Mr. Cabalka what he did to continually motivate the teachers toward such a high level of education, he replied. A lot is within them. They want to excel, and whatever recognition is received makes them want to do more. For the most part, he felt that all the teachers have been proud to work here. He tried to compliment and praise them as often as possible. Although Edina is referred to as the cake eaters. Mr. Cabalka felt that many other schools have held respect for us. Edina is the leader. Edina sets the pace. Other schools ask us how we do it. All in all. Mr. Cabalka has been extremly happy to work with kids during this time of challange and growth. He has confidence in the younger generation and has kept a positive attitude for the future because of them. The students have greatly enriched his life and helped him keep a younger outlook on things. Mr. Cabalka deserved much credit for run- ning such a wonderful high school.

ADMINISTRATION 141 —— Business Hducation Foreign Languages — Foreign Business With her luce hidden by her Ion ;, lovely link , in unknown Student ponders the many wonders ot nottukir.y Many students who don't take a foreign language or business education course wonder about the value of these courses. They excuse themselves for not taking these subjects by resorting to such comments as I'll never go to France or What's the use of typing. I'm not planning on being a secretary! Those who did choose to take these courses knew that the study of both areas can be equally enriching. The Foreign Language Department, headed by Ann Petri (fac.) included French, Spanish, Latin, and German, plus one class of Russian. These classes were enjoyable for both teachers and students, I feel lucky to be teaching Spanish, said Penny Kulp (fac) I'm glad to have a career doing what I enjoy most. Classes were only a part of the Foreign Language program. Clubs, such as the Latin Club, were a popular way for students to expand their knowledge of their chosen language and country. Cultural foreign food experiences provided an interesting interruption of the usual mundane class routine. The Business Education program, also head -cd by Ann Petri, provided training in areas such as notetaking and accounting, and the ever popular typing. Besides preparing students for future professions, these courses provided skills which were helpful in other school subjects. Notetaking, for example, was especially helpful in confusing subjects as European and American History, both of which required excessive notetaking. These two areas, while very different, combined with the rest of Edina's curriculum to provide excellent opportunities for the students.

Her job as an area leader required handling tasks such as keeping track of equipment and book orders, text book inventories, and generally carrying out the administrative instructions to the staff. I enjoy the new challenges the job presents, commented Madame Petri, but I miss the student contact which I would normally have during that hour ( that hour meant second hour, during which she worked on her area leader duties.)

Much more was expected from Edina students and they were able to handle the excess pressures and accomplish what was necessary, while still leading a socially active and outgoing lifestyle. Being rated among the top fifteen schools in the nation. Edina High School proved to be a challenge for its students. Many groaned over the difficult classes and extensive workload because it was far more demanding compared to some of the other surrounding public high schools. None of these schools seemed to match the excelled level and consequent performance of Edina High School and its students. The resulting performance hardened the grading scale, making a “C” in other schools average a “D + in Edina High School. Enduring the schoolwork hardships. Edina friends pulled through and managed to enjoy their free time, and the school events. Friends were a very important part of the students’ lives. Being friends meant not losing touch, and being there for one another. For friends, not having classes together did not mean not seeing each other. Getting together to keep the relationship going and to have fun were these students’ goals; attending hockey, swimming, basketball, and other games and meets was a good way for friends to meet and have a great time. When everyone joined at the game, they rocked the stands with enthusiasm and excitement, bursting with school spirit for their Hornets. The students appreciated the games, and being with each other. The Tri Class Bash was another school event where friends got together. With all of the classes crowded on the cafeteria dance floor, the party seethed with energy. and seemed to equal the spirit of the sports events. Bashes were a much enjoyed party, and many students wished for more of them. Prom, Homccomeing, and Sweetheart were also well attended and well liked school dances. Besides going to school events, students also spent their free time skiing, partying, or vacationing. Many embarked for the week-ends on ski trips, and on winter and spring break departed for the hot beach areas of the world. Those that stayed behind entertained themselves by partying and shopping in the uncrowdcd malls. School founded these friendships by bringing them together, and they became even closer through the high school years. School brought the students knowledge, experience, and friendships, which will be remembered and saved as they enter the future. Where do teachers spend their free time, gossip with their friends, and even cat their lunch? In the teachers lounge. This is where teachers take time out from educating busy little minds, where they cat junk food, and do naughty things like smoke. Sophomore fashions ran the gaunlct from punk to classical, with an emphasis on Esprit. These sophomores used their clothing to express opinions and beliefs. As everyone knows. Junior year is tough. To discover just how tough, one had to experience it first hand. It was a year of trials and tribulations- and it was a year of examinations. As Senior year approached, Seniors viewed their graduation with exultation and with ... something close to terror. The idea of going out alone into the world without Mom or Dad to meet their every problem could be very scary — and it often led to senior anxieties about leaving home. INDIVIDUALS DIVISION 145 Teacher Teeny-Bops! Have you ever wondered what your teachers looked like when they were our age? Did they have oily, acne covered skin, or were they Revlon beauties? Were they “in” or were they geeks? And, were they always bald? your omniscient Windigo has answered these questions, plus more. Snapshots tell the story, and here arc the teachers candidly captured during the best time of their lives: their high school years! Pinpointing these youngsters, it is evident that they have not been teachers all their lives. They had many of the same experiences that we students have had. or will have. They belonged to different school organizations, such as band, publications, orchestra, and or athletic teams, and also participated in school activities. Proms and school dances held fond memories for them, ' in most cases. Dancing the niaht away, th younger generations of Edina’s faculty turned to the Twist, while the senior dazzlers shook to the Charleston, and all of the others bopped inbetween. Many of these teachers’ years were filled with wholesome memories, surrounded by “Wally Cleaver images. Unfortunately for some, their lives were not as carefree, due to the political situation of that era. As teen-agers, living through World War II, the Korean War, or the Vietnam war affected their youthful frivolity, but they tried their best to enjoy the times, anyway. In itself, teen-age life had its trials and tribulations, through which our teachers have endured. The first d sson, getting dates for dan � :ck-cnd. up work; assignments (maybe they don’t remember that one), being a wimpy, incorrigible sophomore, reaching class late and having detention, attaining a part-time job. saving up for a used car, going on diets, and getting lost on the first day of school were all a part of their high school year. These teen-age traditions have carried on to the next generation, the teachers’ students. Even though school was not always fun for us. as we were under constant dictatorship. we students did gain from this, by learning. The teachers gained, also, through knowing they could help their students by spreading their knowledge, preparing them for the future, and keeping them a step ahead.

TEACHER FEATURE 147 Teachers Work Is Never Done Teachers have usually been known only to teach, preparing the new generation with knowledge they will need when they enter the working world. Many teachers did extra jobs at school, influencing their students in a different way. For example. Mr. Ehlert, a biology teacher, has been a hall monitor for three years. He said. “I loved doing it and I would like to continue doing it next year. also”. He liked monitoring because it gave him a chance to see other students he wouldn’t have normally seen. It also made him feel good that he could prevent mischievous behavior. Mr. Halverson, who was a lunch room supervisor ano had been one for many years, stated that he liked supervising. and it was nice because it gave him a chance to see former students. Mr. Halverson reflected that he en- Mr. Grev (fee) had the responsibility of decorating the community center the morning before homecoming.

She replied It was nice being able to talk with students I hadn't talked to in a while but advising the study hall could ge: boring at times.” Students had a difficult time trying t disobey regulations. Thanks to th monitors, skipping, eating lunch out o the lunchroom, and listening to tune: in school were less frequent occur ances. The faculty's non academic jobs could also be fun and rewarding. One thing teachers enjoyed doing was teaching students to be more mature, and responsible, and to show more respect toward other people. This was one incentive for teachers to do these jobs.

Most students didn’t love the teacher’s pet. but there was a different type of teacher's pet that we could all love. This kind of pet didn't throw erasers when the teacher's back was turned, and didn't sass back when reprimanded. This pet was usually, but not always. co-operative. These pets had fins, fur or feathers, and owning one of these pets took a lot of dedication and care. Most people just couldn’t imagine their teachers cleaning a cat box or getting up in the middle of the night to let the dog out. Even though students had a hard time picturing their teacher with a warm heart and acting foolishly by murmer-ing baby-talk to their cuddly friends, teachers did submit to their human inclinations. as they were only human, believe it or not. Madame Petri didn't realize that her pooch. Gabe, quickly stuck out his tongue as the picture was snapped. Mrs. Heyer tries to coax Buster. 3 bit camera-shy. to smile pretty.

FACULTY 151 Behind Closed Doors Often, students wondered what the teachers lounge was actually like and were curious to know what took place there. For teachers, their lounge was a haven from teenagers’ piercing voices and the slamming of locker doors. There, they could relax, gossip, have a long awaited cigarette, and eat to excess. If one peeked in the doorway. they would find nothing out of the ordinary besides some comforts of home: a few sofas, a refrigerator and microwave, and, of course, a mirror, where the teachers could primp themselves. In addition, a few vending machines inhabited the area, items the Bill and Bart chuckle while telling student jokes. Two cheerful teachers wait patiently m line. These two sustain themselves with soup. cafeteria wasn’t privileged with. This was the teachers’ ‘‘Commons.’’ a place to gather and relate their day to friends, and catch up on the latest news and gossip. During normal class hours, it was a quiet refuge for a few teachers doing preparation work, but at lunch time, the lounge came alive. Teachers bustled in. found their seats, and gathered into their cliques. A few venturesome teachers sat co-ed. but most sat at tables with their own gender. However, one may have noticed the obvious lack of monitors, food fights, and the shoving and pushing at the a la carte line that was a part of the students' cafeteria. In essence, the teacher's lounge was their own private world where they could relax, gossip, and nourish themselves into a paradoxal state. After a gruelling morning, teachers relax and show their cafeteria camaraderie. 152 TEACHERS Dale Mackereth- General Woods I II. All Metals. Advanced Woods I II. Dan Marsh Economics. Sociology.

Sweeping The janitors and cooks of Edina High School worked hard to keep our high school functioning. All around the clock, they devoted their time to their jobs. From driving buses to mowing lawns and from counting money to preparing taco salads custodians and cooks kept themselves busy throughout the day. The janitors, headed by Vergil Gus-tavson, had many duties to attend to. Almost all of them drove Edina students to and from school. In the spring and fall they purged the campus of leaves, weeds, and excess lawn grass. During cold winter months all sidewalks and roads were kept ice and snow free thanks to the dutiful caretakers. Janitors' main job was to maintain the building by cleaning up after students: restoring vandalized items and making sure electricity and heat worked, were some of the janitors' other maintenance responsibilities. Cooks, on the other hand, were involved with cooking (obviously), baking. and selling food for students. Breakfast meals were served in the morning before school for students. Many hours were spent preparing the meals. The cooks that sold food were quick thinkers and good at handling money. When asking both cooks and janitors of what they thought of Edina High School students they stated that most of the students were pleasant. Their only negative opinion of them was that they had a tendency to be messy and could have improved in cleanliness. When one janitor named Rudie was asked to say anything he wanted to say to the students, he replied, This is your school, help keep it clean!” FACULTY 155 Sophomore Sing - Along w hat was it that could brighten days, liven dance, or intensify crying? What was it that reminded sophomores of that special person or described events in their lives that nothing else could? Music, of course. Hardly a day passed when sophomores didn't hear songs and connect the lyrics with events going on in their lives. Unlike any other class at Edina High School, sophomores hopped and bopped their way through the year as the typical underdog. Songs represented all of the things sophomores were involved in. including memories. As the radio alarm awakened many sophomore girls the morning after the school dance, playing “What's Love Got to Do With It , they reminisced of that timid peck their dates gave them in the back scat of the car while Mom pretended to fix her lipstick in the front seal. Don’t forget how Mummy and Daddy had to “Drive sophomores all over to slumber parties, movies, and to Boy Scout and Girl Scout meetings. Sophomores were reminded that they had to settle down before bedtime when they heard Lights Out. They ate their milk and cookies, brushed their teeth, and had cither Mummy or Daddy tuck them into bed by 8:30. If they got to bed any later, they wouldn’t be able to get up on time the next morning for Mummy to tic their shoelaces in double knots. Many sophomores began to discover who they were for the first time in their lives as they developed distinct personalities. Whether it was findout out each other's or their own uniqueness, “Are We Ourselves made them really wonder if they were themselves. Sophomores, “You Might Think that “Sad Songs Say So Much, but they also said “Hello Again to happy memories.

Not only did sophomores have to deal with humiliating jokes, but they also had hassles over not having a license, a car. or both. However, sophomores did date. These dates were usually obtained with a The Loving Touch phone call encouraged by a friendly smile or conversation. Believing that there were safety in numbers, especially for first dates, most sophomores double dated or went in a group with friends. A frequent place to spot sophomore daters was at a movie theatre or fast food restaurant. They sometimes successfully snuck into an 'R‘ rated movie, but if they couldn’t, they had to settle for the back row of an empty 'PG' theatre. Sophomores couples had a lot of fun. Because of their age. certain problems did arise, such as having their parents transport them or a moped, being carted from movies and bars, and keeping 9:00 curfews. However, sophomore couples could always look forward to next year, when they could wreak their revenge on the latest brood of unsuspecting sophomores ...

These camps, two weeks in length, have become very popular in recent years. The International Language Villages have built facilities for French. Spanish. Swedish. Finnish. Norwegian. Danish. Chinese, and Russian camps. Upon arrival at the camp, members were completely immersed in their chosen nation's culture. First, they exchanged their American money for international currency (which was spent on candy and mementos at the main store). They were given a foreign name and were encouraged to speak only their particular foreign language for the next two weeks. At all meals, campers were served the cuisine of their foreign country, and during the afternoons they were taught tradition ethnic dances and games. There was also time for regular camp activities, such as canoeing and swimming. The highlight of all the camps was International Day. where all campers from their individual languages gathered together. Everyone dressed in their national costume and performed dances and songs for parents and friends. For all who attended. International Day was an important event, bringing people together for friendship and fun.

With the start of school, sophomore fashion trends began again, influenced by last years fashions, but also incorporating their own styles. Sophomores were noted for their ■‘Guess” jeans and “Esprit” clothing and shoes. Many sophomores turned to punk styles, which made them an outlet for an incredible amount of teasing. At the pep tests they were the target of many jokes because of their incredulous dress codes. These sophomores dress codes usually intertwined a style with a personality and a state of being. In order to avoid the chore of thinking up a personality all by themself, shopping became a necessary and favorite inspirational pastime for sophomores, by giving them personality choices through a medley of different shops. The Limited was popular because of their unique clothing, including Forenza shirts and sweaters, purchased by many vogue sophomores. Dayton’s was another store overrun with sophomores hunting for their Esprit” and Guess” clothes. More of the outlandish clothing, specifically intended for our sophomore punkers, could be found in the diversified Donaldsons’ centers. After a confusing day of shopping, the labeled sophomores gathered into cliques according to clothing and hair preferences. in the commons. This gave juniors and seniors an excellent opportunity to tease the subordinate sophomores about their clothing, accessories and basic hairstyles. that of the over popularized bob , or the glutinously hairsprayed and fluorescently dyed spiked style. Among accessories, braclets and ostentatious earrings were the newest trend and many indiscriminate sophomores could be seen dragging along with overweighted wrists and earlobes.

The answer is; just about everything. As usual, Lake Harriet provided sophomores with hours of basking in the sun. romping on the bench, and biking along the trails, but with the new PG-13 movie ratings, many sophomores left the lakes to get a peek. As a sophomore, getting into an R rated movie was a complicated maneuver. For the few who drifted past the ticket booth bouncer, “Revenge of the Nerds was the thrilling pay-off. To cool off a hot summer night, the other less fortunate juveniles headed into the blockbuster movies. Ghostbusters” and Gremlins.” Disney classics, however, presented no problem for sophomores to view, as they were equal opportunity performances. Other than the screen, another aspect of entertainment was the stage. The local rock concerts were a big hit with this year's sophomores. The concerts were a chance for them to spike their hair, put on their chains and dog collars and either travel via moped or have their parents drive them to where the music was the loudest. As the summer wound down, these pre-high school students had to think ahead and plan what to buy for their new school wardrobe. Many sophomores spent the rest of the summer at Daytons, buying any article of clothing that had an Esprit label on it. while others went downtown to search for chains, leather and hair gel. . These summer memories filled the minds of sophomores all year long and encouraged them to look forward toward the summers to come. These sophomore girts spend their summer on the phone. Sophomores spent much of their leisure this summer shopping.

Undoubtedly, sophomores played an important role in pepfests. being on the receiving end of most mockery and affron-tery. thus supplying fun for the upperclassmen who took deep pleasure in taunting the lower class. From pepfest number one. sophomores were hunted down by Soph-busters”. a group of four upperclassmen parading arround like Ghost-busters.” exterminating sophomores. They were also kidded for their romantic inexperience, and through pepfest expertise before the ominous homecoming, the young ones were given kissing lessons. Hints were even given to which kissing techniques might be too dangerous and time-consuming for them to try. The sophomore girls' dress codes of fluorecent socks and hair. Guess jeans. Esprit outfits, and hair tiebows were also given much attention during pepfests. Sophomores may have asked themselves. Why do we even show up at these pepfests?” Many sophomores thought of the pepfests as an excellent time to get rowdy and show their school spirit.

September 5. Crowds of people filled the school. Seniors and juniors felt right at home, but sophomores were in shock. All the freshman luxuries to which they were accustomed had disappeared. No more bossing around seventh graders and being the oldest in the school. Sophomores just began to sense the pleasures awaiting them. When arriving to their first hour, sophomores found themselves in classes where they only knew half of the people. Many of them found themselves having to walk alone in a hall for the first time. When lunchtime came around the outcast sophomore was lucky to find someone to eat with. By the end of the day. sophomores had a real taste of what high school life was all about. The initial shock was over. However, the aftershock still had to be dealt with. Pepfest number one rolled around the corner and sophomores found themselves aghast at the amount of mockery they received. Hardly any jokes varied from the purpose of poking fun at the in- competent” sophomores. After their first pepfest concluded, sophomores realized why they received so many dirty looks and wisecracks on the first day of school. The aftershock of being sophomores wouldn’t cease until they finally became juniors. Kelli Gramello (10) and Jackie Dorris (10) are lost. Sean Salene (10) hasn't adjusted to a new schedule.

Sophomores were overwhelmed by the new, larger lockers with ‘‘built-in’' shelves. Some unlucky souls had troubles remembering their new combination; many lockers had to be given just the right kick before they would open. Since the lockers were to be used all year, each was decorated to its owner’s finest taste. From pictures of GO models to Prince photographs, almost anything could have been found in a locker. Many narcissistic sophomores chose to put a mirror in their locker so they could gaze upon themselves. Studious sophomores had note charts up to remind them of homework. Sophomores gave their lockers a fair share of abuse. Some of them used the excuse: I was late because my locker was jammed!” Some teachers weren’t sure if they were stretching the truth or not! Many generous sophomores shared their locker with a buddy. This was sure to cause a squeeze. Despite all the warnings given out about locker graffiti, most everyone still committed the crime.

The first step in high school was over, but there were two more giant steps to conquer. Juniors shed their sopho-rnoric image, but were still looked down upon as inferior by the mature seniors. Many juniors found that being stuck in the middle between sophomores and seniors could be something of a trial. The summer was over, school had begun, and the task of studying took over. Hard-working juniors now learned the real meaning of homework. It required hours of slaving over books, packages of No Do ., the sacrifice of television, and the disappearance of all social life. Some juniors missed their television so much, they actually began to look forward to those traditionally uninteresting movies in history class. After experiencing the rigerous workload, juniors almost began to wish they had the easy life of a sophomore again. But juniors eagerly anticipated what was ahead of them, they knew those cool seniors were once brain-strained juniors too. With that in mind, they kept plowing ahead. Although a junior’s week was usually too busy for them to socialize, that didn’t mean that the weekend had to be boring. At 2:25 p.m. on Friday, all homework was pushed aside and plans to enjoy life were arranged. With driver’s licenses in hand, excited juniors took off with their parents car to broaden their horizens by visiting formerly untested locales, such as cruising the Hopkin’s strip, Hennepin and Lake Street, and downtown MacDonalds. For a junior, bribery usually persuaded those narrow-minded parents to lend out the car. Phrases like, “If you let me use the car tonight, I promise I’ll clean my room. often were asked of nervous parents. While the juniors were begging, the seniors were already at their prc-dcsignatcd destinations. Once behind the steering wheel, all thoughts gotten and memories relaxed their stressed minds. Because some juniors were still only sixteen years old. they were forced to watch wistfully as the seniors and older juniors purchased R-rated movie tickets. As the seniors and older juniors gloated and passed through the R-rated movie theater entrances, the younger juniors figured they could have just as much fun going to a friend’s house and watching cable T.V. rather than sitting in a cold, sticky and damp movie theater. Although throughout the school year, juniors thought they were doomed to remain eleventh graders for the rest of their lives, they somehow managed to keep their sanity and to continue looking forward to next year, when they would be a senior and rule the school. sophomoric. the high class, a confus- 172 JUNIOR FEATURE I Ale, because of the late-night homework session, Megg Fischer (III tries to think of ways to curl her hair and. at the same lime, get to school on time for her first hour class.

Some were the presidents of clubs, while others were student council members or editors of publications. Juniors had supreme responsibilities in the Art Club, a new addition to this year's after school curriculum. Developed and organized by juniors over the past summer, the club was run by students artistically inclined. Beth Winnick (11), club president, formed the club, gathering others interested in the project. Among those junior Art Club leaders were Jenny Munson (vice president), Jeannie Phill (secretary), and Hayley Bush (treasurer). These leaders managed fund raisers, and also field trips. When asked what the main objective of the club was, Hayley Bush replied, To have fun, and learn more about art! Juniors Megan McBurney and Laura Bassinger were elected president and treasurer of the French Club. They organized hayrides, parties, and pot-luck dinners. Another activity of the school was the newspaper Ze-phyrus, juniors had important responsibilities on staff. Dean Salita (11) was editor of the sports page, and Mike Fault (11) was editor of the news page. They helped staffers get information for their features and wrote occasional articles.

When asked at the beginning of the year what was the best part of being a junior, Allyson Swofford (11) replied, Not being a sophomore. This year's juniors reveled in their newfound supremacy over the 10th graders. Although still not old enough to vote and consume liquor, many juniors were experiencing more freedom than they had ever had before, such as having their driver's license, a minimum-wage job, and of course, being able to legally bring their dates to those scintillating R-rated movies. Juniors also became an active part in the high school: they organized pepfests, ran for club presidencies, and perhaps most importantly, attended the prom. For many, participating in the prom fes- tevities was a much anticipated event, and juniors were proud to be a part of it. For many juniors, being the middle-men of the school not only meant that they had more personal freedom, but also it meant that they could become spirited participators in various school events.

One of the highest anxiety factors of high school, juniors readily agreed, was college admissions testings. Scholastic Achievement Tests were just one form of a growing number of tests to be taken- there were the PSAT's, ACT's, GATBY's, and the ASVAB's. Many juniors frantically signed up for all the tests offered, thinking the more, the better. SAT's were the basic tests that most colleges required. PSAT's were a shorter version of the SAT's- and were the qualifying test for the National Merrit Scholarships. American College Tests' ACT's tested students' knowledge of various subjects. For those who weren’t planning to go to college, there were the Vo Tech centers, for which a GATBY- General Ap- titude Test Battery- was usually required. It emphasized the testing of non-verbal skills. Those that fest the military was their best choice, took the ASVAB’s- Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Batteries, which were mandatory for those who wanted to serve Uncle Sam. To prepare for all of those tests, before-school classes were offered, such as preparing for the PSAT's class. Not only did the school help students to prepare for these tests, but B. Dalton's and other bookstores had numerous pamphlets and study aids, as well. Although the tests were cause for worry, many juniors were relieved that they did have the opportunity to retake them.

This was the weekend that Joe Cool's parents left town, and he was going to make the most of it. Not many parties were going on, and Mom and Dad did say to stick around and watch the house, so why not have a few people over? Joe called some friends and let them call all of their friends. About 9:30 the first juniors sauntered their way in. It was the party of his life. Having no parents around made it even better. Around 2:00 the last of the people left and Joe glanced around the basement. It was a pit. He tried to not think about it and crashed into the confines of his bed. As dawn approached, Joe awakened to the harsh reality of the awaiting mess downstairs. Instead of cleaning up, he ventured to the refrigerator and ate some cold pizza. Joe spent an incredible night out on the town with Suzy Brown. It was such a shame that he had to use Dad's forbidden Jaguar instead of his rusty old 1972 Plymouth. Joe woke up on Sunday realizing that if he wanted to go out next weekend, he had better clean up. The smell was revolting. The awful stench of stale beer and spilled cola brought him back to the harsh reality that the weekend was drawing to a close. Trash cans were filled to the brim. Just as the last potatoe chip was picked from the depths of the shag carpeting, Joe heard the slam of a car door. His parents had arrived and he welcomed them in with an angelic smile and an open heart. His parents never found out about his lost weekend. Sean Kearney and Tim Amundson speculate over the consequences of bringing out the contents in the box. Sean Kcjrncv picks out the corn chips from the shag carpeting before Mom and Dad arrive.

Yes, school offered them with a way to bloom and enrich their lives with extracurricular activities, but juniors found various intriguing and entertaining activities outside of school. Music played a large part in entertainment for juniors who wanted to rock the night away. Bruce Springsteen came in July for a whopping three concerts and the Twin Cities' very own Prince came back in December to provide students with an unforgettable night. Unfortunately, juniors weren’t able to see Micheal Jack-son unless they were able to venture to Detroit. Movies provided a means by which juniors could get away from the outside world for a couple of hours on a boring Sunday afternoon. Two of the most popular movies of the year came out in the summer: Ghostbusters, and once again, starring Prince, Purple Rain. For those who wanted to see something a little more mind-enriching and expensive, an extravagant night at the playhouse was in order with such plays as The Twelfth Night and The Little Prince. The activities mentioned above weren't the only ones that juniors found for entertainment this year. The activities varied with the personalities and interests of each individual.

In 1983 peo- [ le stood in lines outside ocked store doors until they were opened, and when they were, people grabbed anything and everything that had the word trivia in it's title. Including the Genus, Baby Boomer, Silver Screen, ana Sports Editions of Trivial Pursuit™. But, in 1984 shoppers weren't racing to every store around town, fighting for the last one, and even paying up to one hundred dollars for any toy; they were doing it as part of the adoption procedure. It seemed as if virtually every young lady and many little men wanted a child, not just any child but one that needed to be hugged at least once a day- one that was easy to care for if properly loved-and especially, it had to be from the Cabbage Patch.™ Ves, Cabbage Patch Kids™ and Preemies™ were the hot items on the market this year. Whether you adopted Christopher Rhett, Isabella Mae, George Ross, or even Aggy Julian they all had one thing in common; they were born at Babyland General in the Cabbage Patch. Colonel Casey leaves each Cabbage Patch Kid™ and Preemie™ with one change of clothes, official adoption papers, and of course tne special Cabbages Patch™ logo ta-tooed to the babies bottoms, not to mention the joy to be spread around. If one change of clothes isn't enough for tne special young'n mommies can venture to specialty toy stores and buy specially tailored Cabbage Patch™ clothes, and plastic disposable diapers. If the Kid™ needs some toys there are Cabbage Patch Kid™ babies for your Cabbage Patch Kid.™ And, if your Cabbage Patch Kid™ likes to write letters he or she can correspond with their old friend Xavier Roberts. Her name is Althea Ursa, and we call her Allie for short. My little niece is such a joy to have around the house. And although she's so small she spreads so much love. I wouldn't trade her for the world. When the Trivial Pursuit® craze was around, every other manufacturer wanted to get in on the money. We saw numerous products on the market like the T.V. Guide trivia fame and the Entertainment onight trivia game. And, so to will we see this with the Kids™ from the patch. So when adopting a child, make sure it comes from a cabbage not a cauliflower. Because, like Coke® nothing can replace the 'real' thing.

The junior's philosophy was hat if they had to suffer hu-niliation throughout their enth grade year, then sweet evenge must be taken out on his year's sophomores. It humored the juniors to vatch as the wide-eyed, con-used sophomores tried to fol-ow the mind-boggling map af the school. Oftentimes a new sophomore would ask an upperclassman for help to find their room. The seniors pitied them and pointed them in the right direction, but juniors had a different idea. Many times they sent a sophomore on a wild goose chase, from one end of the school to the other. After the tenth graders learned their way around school, the juniors had to think of what else could be done to tease the sophomores. The answer laid in the sophomores lack of a driver's license. Most of the teasing was done after a football or hockey game when the sophomores either walked home or waited for their mommies to come get them. Often a junior Junior Scoll Moore gave these two unruly sophomores jn uplifting experience. would pull up in his car next to a group of sophomores and ask them if they wanted a ride. As soon as the sophomores replied with a yes, the junior sped off into the night without feeling any guilt or pity. Fortunately for them, sophomores would become juniors eventually, and they, in turn, would get their revenge on the new sophomores. After nuiny hours of driver's turning.

They had heard many bad rumors about it from seniors, their brothers and sisters, and from looking at their class schedules. Chemistry and history just sounded like unattainable “A classes. As the year progressed, juniors realized their forewarners were right, and their year was a very tough one with too much work. All of the classes demanded much from them. Juniors got their fill of algebraic equations and Juniors Cjrh Helou (11) sacrifices her lunch time to enjoy the sun ,wJ complete Iter chemistry. chemistry compounds, besides the incredible amount of reading assigned in history and literature courses. Many students read more books their junior year (unlesa strain for the better. The junior year prepared the students for the immense college demands which they would be receiving. It was needed preparation, although not timely appreciated. In the future, the books read, and the formulas learned, would keep them a step ahead.

Yet even the most sophisticates senior would be forced to admit that juniors had come a long way since grade school. For example juniors girls no longer ran shrinking through the halls when ever a boy looked at them. And, of course junior boys had stopped spiting (at girls) which helped enormously in their rise in the girl's esteem. Teachers noted quite an improvement, they no longer feared to have substitutes come in (most juniors had advanced beyond the old lets switch seats on the teacher bit). Even sophomores, soon to be juniors themselves, found an improvment in the afore mentioned group since grade school. It was seldom, if ever that junior was heard chanting 10th grade babies, 11 grade angels, 12th grade snots . Still, with all these improv-ments juniors occasionally look back to those care-free innocent days when spit balls and slumber parties were cool.

Training for the Olympics? Homemaking for 12 children and a spouse? Skydiving? Big game hunting? The possibilities are astronomical and the decisions were difficult to make. Whatever the decision, this year's seniors were determined to be successful. I ligh school books were disposed of and college books were purchased. In order to pay for the high tuition of college, many seniors found themselves in undesirable jobs from cooking greasy soybean burgers for the school lunches, picking the lint out of coin operated dryers in the local laundromats to changing light bulbs in the Hubert Humphry Mctrodome score board. The jobs were tedious, but the extra money was needed in order to buy the neccessities of college life. The college students who found time outside of these jobs were able to develop a more serious relationship, often resulting in marriage. These marriages, long lasting or fleeting, where usually true to the heart, thus giving their college years an extra special meaning. Marriage was only one of the many options open to the outgoing senior. Others took advantage of being single and out of school to enjoy themselves in the world. Unfortuantly, the world was expensive and many seniors found that in order to survive. they had to get jobs, and worse than that, they had to keep them for extended periods of time. This is where people branched out, they became everything from sanitation engineers to doctors (more school!). New job opportunities were opened up for one and all. even car selling took on a new mystique, mostly due to Jason Elliot's fast talking and gentle pur-suasivc selling techniques. All this work paid off, but generally not very well. The jet set hopefuls often found that their earnings didn’t support them in the manner to which they were accustomed. They handled this dclema in different ways. Some ended up scuttling home to their parents “just until they get on their feet. Others were determined to stay in-dependant and they usually chose living in mobilhome, trailerhomes. one room apartments and sharing a house and the expenses with another couple. Fortunatly, these poverty stricken circumstances didn't last very long and with few exceptions, our seniors moved up and out (of home) into the “real” world. 192 SENIOR FEATURE SENIOR FEATURE 193 RICHARD ANDREW AADALEN- Drew; Vars. fool ball, hockey (oops!); Winnipeg, college.

SENIORS 195 18 Candles This year seniors turned eighteen, and most found that becoming a legal adult brought not only special privileges, but new responsibilities and obligations as well. One of the inherent privileges belonging to seniors, naturally, was that of sovereignty in the school. They claimed superiority over the other adolescents, especially the well-known scape goats- sophomores. Among various honored were Edina's Homecoming King. Queen, and court, esteemed editors of Images. Windigo. and Zephyrus, and presidents of numerous clubs. Seniors proudly represented the school this year in all those functions, as well as at church. work, and other areas. Following commencement. they will individually carry on Edina's reputation when they leave to execute their chosen vocation or field of study. Although turning eighteen involved numbers of privileges and advantages, there also arrived with that maturity many responsibilities, such as voting in the national election and signing up for the draft. These, however, were not only obligations, but privileges as well. While registering for the draft was a sobering experience for many, they had to remember that simply being born in the U.S.A., as the Boss so lyrically put it. was an honor to be upheld and protected. Voting was an important duty. too. for that same reason. Carefu thought was mandatory in order for ar. effective president to be elected. Out of the special advantages and disad vantages that seniors acquired with their eighteenth birthdays, a newfound sense of maturity blossomed. Edina has been proud to have the 1984- 85 class of senior women and men represent the school, even in the years to come. Todd Cain (12) registers for the draft.

PICTURE AVAILABLE PICTURE AVAILABLE PICTURE AVAILABLE 198 SENIORS Young-At-Heart Nightie-night, Mommy and Daddy. It's time to trudge off in my jam-mies to await Mr. Sandman with one pruny, wet thumb stuck in my mouth and one tenderly tattered blanket trailing behind. Does this image dredge up fond remembrances? With eighteen years of their lives behind them, seniors generally cherished memories of their early lives and often tried to revive these childhood traditions. How many seniors still possessed a Win-nie-the-Pooh secretly stashed away in a musty corner of their rooms? The large, revealing number may have astonished underclassmen. One habit of the olden days that was relived with relish was the ritual of watching cartoons on Saturday mornings or after school. The Mr. Rogers' appeal was widespread among fans of his neighborly repute. Reverting to childhood provided an escape from senior pressures and adult anxiety, as well as giving one last excusable chance for puerile pleasures. Additional symbols of those early years included plastic prizes from Perkins (often flashed by reminiscent seniors), and faithful old Pokey and Gumby. Senior Chris Roff wistfully recalls his cherished Big Wheel; Cruising on my Big Wheel was a lot of fun ... all the other kids on my block had one. too! As kids of yesterday, seniors remember idolizing such traditional figures as Santa Claus and Dr. Seuss. As the youth of today. they honor their nation's leaders, while as tomorrow's adults, they will become those leaders. Yet, certain timeless rites of childhood may never be outgrown, rather remaining life-long treasures for the young-at-heart!

SENIORS 199 Personable Places When one imagined a way of displaying one's personality and individuality. a sophomore might have though of new wave clothing and hairstyles. Yet. for seniors, a stronger indicator of a person's character lay in his or her bedroom decor. Not only did bedrooms provide space for living, but they displayed student's personalties, as well. In order to demonstrate the validity of this theory, two radically different examples were chosen. These two gracious bedroom representatives were Miss Penelope Pris and Mr. Joe Rocker. Penelope Priss's room was always found neat and tidy. Penelope faithfully quoted her mother. Mrs. Priss: Cleanliness is next to Godliness. Miss Priss took pride in her pink canopy bed and lacy curtains. All of her favorite stuffed animals were found lounging in their orderly place in Penelope's bed. When asked what she liked about her room Penelope stated. It gave me a place to sit and do my hair and nails and to read my Harlequin Romance books. Joe Rocker's image of an ideal room was one with soundproof walls so Mom and Dad couldn't tell him to turn the stereo down. Joe wasn't bothered by the fact that his floor was engulfed with a sea of dirty T-shirts, records, and all of his rock magazines. Posters of Van Halen ane Iron Maiden” were some of the many that covered his wall. Lucky Joe owned a waterbed accompanied by black lights. His most prized possession was a beer can collection that towered to the ceiling. After asking Mr. Rocker what he enjoyed most about his bedroom he replied. It gave me a place to get down with the Stones. ' Sadly, both of these seniors will abandon their rooms next year, but their college dorms will most likely reflect upon Penelope's and Joe's tastes in decor. Thus they may reveal more about the nature of their personalities through their bedroom decorations. Pete Vidmar (12) takes a break from homework to relax and spend time with his abandoned pussy cat Diane Seaberg (12) studies for her calculus test with the company of her stuffed animals in her lavoushly decorated bedroom.

At the beginning of the year seniors expected to have a blast. After twelve consecutive years of schooling, this was the last In Edina before they became adults and moved out into the real world.” The courses seniors took varied from consumer math to calculus. The degree of difficulty depended on the individual. Those who wanted to get accepted at a tough and highly accredited school continued to take advanced placement courses and work hard. These courses amounted to great deals of homework and much studying to the dismay of many seniors. When the social life began to take off at the beginning of the year, seniors were tempted to choose between the elevating amounts of homework and their social life. Did they dare risk the chance of losing touch with their grades? Many stuck with the grudge of massive amounts of homework while others said who cares and partied until the break of dawn. Many extracurricular activities took up a lot of time in the lives of seniors. These varied from sports to youth groups. At times these became more important than the ever so important tests that seem to pop up out of nowhere. After receiving a lower than passing grade on one of these grueling tests, parents had the inginuity of just happening to ask about how the grades were going. Luckily, if the truth was told, parents set their child back on the right track again so that grades could improve once again and the social life could be put into its proper place too. Jim Barnard (12) puts off doing his homework while deciding whether or not listening to one more song will hurt. Diane Scaberg (12) tells a friend that the massive amount of homework on her desk just won't disap pear. DEBORAH JEAN EICKHOFF- Ike; Hornettes.

Who were those masked men!? They certainly weren’t the Lone Ranger and friends. No, thes creatures were commonly known to Edina students as ABCJF (A Bunch of Fools). The ABCIF tradition had prevailed for many years, even though each year the new incoming sophomores did not know who or what they were. These unusual people were usually seen at pepfests and school activities. They were not called, and never wanted to be called, male cheerleaders. They were simply the school spirit inspirators. At pepfests. ABCJF usually put on a quick skit followed by the ABUFian style of slam dancing. Their dress consisted of clashing colors and a mask or nylon stocking to conceal their true identity. Often a careless ABUFian's mask would be knocked off. revealing to fellow classmates who the unidentified club member was. Thanks to these devoted juniors and mainly seniors, the school spirit was stron ger and louder. Hopefully the ABCJF tradi tion will be passed on through the year; and school spirit will remain alive an thrilling. A member of ABCJF disguises himself as an angel a one of ABUFs many public appearances.

At Edina High, students learned how to get away with most of their illegal actions. The rules that were broken ranged from skipping class to successfully avoiding the security guard that patrolled the parking lot for students without parking permits. The result of being caught breaking any of the rules was not a pleasant experience. Even though most students knew the consequences of being caught, they were willing to take a chance to get a little variety in their life. — Have you ever skipped school or class?

Well, just as it was to the seniors of yesteryear, dressing up for the day was a fun and novel endeavor. For some, getting dressed up was an everyday regiment which they undertook with great care; looking their best was important to them, and they dressed to show it. For others, it was an enjoyable change from a boring day in. day out put-on-some-clothes-and-catch-the bus routine — wearing nice clothes added an extra perk to the day. Often good luck badges accompa- nied fancy clothes, as teams and casts showed their unity before important games or opening nights. Sometimes people dressed up to make an impression on other people, such as girlfriends or boyfriends, hoping formal clothes might give them an extra edge for success.

SENIORS 213 Breaking Away Throughout the years, there were many times that the wish to be independant. to be free from the binding rules of parents, filled the minds of students. This made leaving home a confusing yet exciting experience. Gradually, more and more seniors were being accepted by various colleges. The stark reality of living miles away from their families, friends, pets and cozy bedrooms plagued the minds of the soon-to-be graduates. They finally realized they were adults now and were going to leave the nest for the real world. The thought of not having mommy or daddy to run to with daily problems gave the seniors a little bit of a scare, plus a few ulcers. Maybe the experience wouldn’t be all that bad though, if considered in a different aspect. Optimistically, this was the chance for the newly-liberated to do whatever was desired with their new rooms. If the thought of insects, mold, and king-size dust balls under the bed didn't make a person’s skin crawl, then the necessity of cleaning bedrooms could be eliminated. Curfew could also be a thing of the past. If getting back before 5:00 in the morning presented a problem at home, at least now there wasn’t anyone to tell the happy-go-lucky kid that the was grounded indefinitely, which was a popular saying among Edina families. Not only were parents and siblings to left behind, whether for better but also the soft and become a save wouldn’t be there to chew up the term pe per and that the cat woundn’t be around to shed all over the new angora sweater. Ye: often these realizations didn’t make leavlr. home much easier. Although the experience was new and c ten difficult, everyone had to eventual break away from the comforts of home an feel the challenge of the busy and ofte confusing world.

I've been having a pretty radical time partying with all of my senior buddies. Infact, my social life has left my head spinning. This Friday we all went to Fud-druckers and ate everything In sight. We were short on money so we used my Dad's credit card to make up the difference. Hey. I know it was a pretty Edinan thing to do, but what would you have done? We exited that place fast and took off for the Tri-Class Bash up at school. We jammed to the tunes of a local band and in between songs we made fun of sophomores trying to dance up a storm. Sick of sweaty slamdancing. we finished the night off by party hopping all over town. Saturday brought on a headache after five hours of exhausting work serving crabby customers. In order to blow off some steam, I took off to the rowdy hockey game that Saturday night. I swear the whole city of Edina was there cheering on the team! The game ended up with yet another Edina victory. We cruised over to Me Donald's to celebrate, then on to a great party. I returned to my house in perfect time for my curfew (that's the one set by me. not my parents). Of course Mom and Dad were up waiting for me. Sunday I has to catch up on a lot of neglected homework. I had to study for my Psych test and write a paper for Econ. I took a break at three and went out to lunch at Arby’s with a couple of other of my senior pals, and we wasted as much time Be Seen as we could hanging out there. Ya know, Southdale's a great place for scoping. I spent the rest of my Sunday watching T.V. and eating munchies. I was so exhausted by my active weekend that I went to bed early ... evidence of what a socialite I am! So. what have you been up to lately? Write back and tell me. See ya soon, Wild Eddie Stephanie Brennan (12) and Ann Yaeger (12) sneak furtive glances of gorgeous passersby at South-dale Kelly Stellburg (12) and Kristen Bringgold (12) glance at each other with gastronomicol satisfaction while Kim Calvert (12) fills her mouth with cheeseburger.

What was dorm life like? While visiting the colleges of their choice, many seniors found that life there was dcfinatcly exciting. The size of the rooms was unbelievable; an average two-person room measured eleven feet by sixteen feet. Traumas arose in these closet-sized living spaces — many a claustrophobic student was sadly discovered to have bashed his head into the wall upon arising from bed. As students continued to find out more about the ups and bumps of the college experience, they became filled with cautious anticipation. Many college students said that it was a blast. The opportunity to meet people from all different back- grounds was a major highlight. Independence was a key word in the lives of many future college students. They looked forward to the first time they could live casually and carelessly in a mess without being harrassed, convert from toothpaste to mouthwash, and to not have to obey a curfew. Thinking of dorm life also brought on the realization that Mom and Dad would not be around to pay for junk food, order them to unload the dishwasher, or kiss them goodnight while tucking them into bed. As school days drew to a close, a high level of anticipation was felt among the seniors. However, tasting the college adventure for only a few days could not accurately evaluate dorm life. It had to wait until the following fall. Scott Fischer (12) gets ready for dorm life by check Ing out his closet at home. Peter Stenoin (12) gets used to sleeping at his desk before heading off to the dorm next fall.

There were prospective plans to be made, new ideas to unfurl, and tentative steps to be taken. Colleges or careers were cause for concern, yet the thrill of treading new water could turn into i challenging adventure. Those aiming for nore elbow room headed toward an out-of-;tate college, primarily to inhabit a new invironment and to meet different people. 3eing too sheltered was a drawback of liv-ng in Edina, most seniors remarked, and ome of their feelings of frightened anxiety ibout entering the new world could have been a result of this, although excited anticipation abounded, as well. After graduation from college, a number of seniors hoped to live in Edina again, or a similiar place.

Another program, similar to Indepen dant Study and the Working Experience, was the Mentor Connection. This provided for a teacher-approved study in which a student interested in a particular vocation would receive on-the-job training. It differed from the work program in that one would learn a trade, yet not receive pay for his labor. The student would work with a pro- fessional in his field of study. Independant Study was an excellent e perience for students, advancing both the academic and non academic skills. Cathy Ransom (12) studies the flute as her subfe for Independent Study.

SENIORS 225 Senior’s Spirit School spirit overflowed as the sports fans cheered their teams on more than ever. The energy level at pep fests and sporting events was quite high as new and creative cheers were developed by cheerleaders as well as the fans. One of these new phenomenons, known simply as the wave and often initiated by seniors, roused the crowd into a state of wildly spirited jubilation at pepfests, football and hockey games. The wave was not started by the cheerleaders, but by some diehard fans who never let their team down. For those people who had not attended the sports games or pepfests where this visual cheer took place, it was simply ii5| 14 -F created by having the fans stand up by sections and sit down as the next section stood up. thus forming the physical illusion of a rolling wave. The wave was only one form of cheering, however. Naturally, school spirit was expressed in loud and vocal ways as well. The referees were, as always, the subject of much abuse, but they, in turn, took their revenge by putting an Edina player out for a two-minute penalty. Of course, there were battles between the two sides of gymnasiums or stadiums. To test the spirit of each team's fans, there was a popular cheer that grew louder and louder by the end of the night. It went like this; We’ve got the spirit, yes we do. we've got the spirit, how bout you? And the opposite team would return the same cheer, getting louder each time. To Mr. Skluzachek's dismay, cheer ing sometimes got out of hand, verging on vulgarity, yet delighting the crowd. Because Edinans were often looked upon as “cakeeaters, the cheers were louder and stronger, showing that we were proud of what we were and the accom plishments we had achieved. Everybody was involved to boost the morale of tht team. It helped the team to know we wer proud of them. We definitely were. With the help of a megaphone, senior Scott Hanoi, helps cheer the team on to victory. These seniors voice their objection to the referee' decision of a two-minute penalty against Edina.

One of the events was skipping. Seniors skipped for different reasons. Some did term papers for other classes, others avoided classes for which they had term papers due. Still others were simply overcome with awe and just couldn't deal with one more lecture. Depending upon the reason for skipping students spent the time in different places. Students went out to restaurants over the hours they spent skipping and they also went home to sleep or work on school work. Mr. Cabalka stated that our school had a low number of students skipping compared to other schools. Some of the pun ishments of skipping are: in school suspen sion, detention, and of course they make up all their work. If skipping became a severe problem with a student, a conference was requried and there may be loss of credit or credits. If it persists they may encourage dropping out of high school and re-entering when the student was ready to take on their responsibility. Of course the age to be able to drop out of high school is 16 or older. Parents were always notified if their son or daughter had skipped. The school provided programs for students who usually had a difficult time with skipping. The school had work programs, they also had a class called GEAR. Edina high school provides professional help if needed or wanted. Our high school was very successful during the year of 1984 85. Thank good ness for the education that was provided to us that we had a low skipping rate. 1. Do you skip? 81% yes 19% no 2. Do you skip 1-5 times a quarter? 73% yes 3.

The seniors had finally and exuberantly reached the year in which they had to make the big decision , choosing whether or not they wanted to go to college, and if they did. which of the many schools they would attend. All thirteen years of attending school had prepared them to enter the new adult world. Many had chosen classes in high school that would benefit them in their work or further schooling, although some seniors procrastinated until June 12. 1985. when they finally took their new responsibility as graduates seriously. During the school year, the career center was provided to help students make sure they could make the best college decision. Be fore making up their minds, seniors often visited their preferred schools during the fall. Innumerable hours were spent filling out the long and tedious applications. After thankfully surrendering them to the mailman with an exhausted sigh and a wavering hope, an applicant anxiously awaited the responses while nervously chewing their fingernails off in the meantime. Many students had uncertainties about their lives following graduation. Some were just overjoyed that they would be out of high school while there would be others that didn't want to leave their friends at Edina High. With all the mixed feelings, there was a enthusiastic excitement among the seniors about entering the college world. Leaning out a dorm window at the (J of At.

They tried their best to make the grades and actively participate in school activities, in lieu of the subsequent college apprecia tion. Some, however, did last minute turn arounds in view of college. To improve their college acceptance chances, these late realizors zealously improved their grades, and randomly went on to join school organizations. This step would make colleges more likely to like them, as it made recognizable the applicants' un- yielding school spirit and enthusiastic involvement. Although they had to expediently change their ways and take ex post facto action, these procrastinators did sweat it out honestly. They were sincere enough not to indulge in inventive or deceptive practices, as had a few other seniors. These other few. the uncandids. chose to make their college application appearance be better than what truthfully was. Most only told tiny fibs, such as saying that they were involved in a certain school club — although they had only gone to one meeting, in their sophomore year.

At private college interviews the fabricators continued their stories, and tried desperately not to blush No one was creative enough to lie about grades, though, as it was easily checked up on and was too principle a lie. On receiving the thick letter of accep tance, the inventors vowed never to pre varicate again, as long as possible, and all of the applicants rejoiced and lost the heavy lines that were burrowed into their foreheads. They, however, were not readily aware that those lines were just about to begin again. Jason Elliot (12) provides a little Incentive for his chosen college.

SENIORS 235 Joe sauntered into his sociology class and slid into his familiar chair in the all-too-familiar room. The teacher began his monotone lecture as Joe slowly tuned out. Words and sentences soon blended into the pleasant rumble of a nearby waterfall. He found himself enveloped in a hazy, tropical paradise. The palm leaves above him moved rhythmically. His eyes followed the leafy vines down to the voluptuous woman who fanned him adoringly as two other native beauties fed him bananas and coconuts. Joe couldn’t believe it! This was fantastic! He sighed and nestled himself deeper into the papery folds of his dream world. He let slumber take him away and soon he awoke to the clatter of slot machines and clinking chips. The dealer asked “Ante up Sir? and he obliged. He threw a S500 chip onto the green felt. Luck was his lady and soon his pile of chips towered over all the other players. Joe felt a bit urgent though, as nature began to call. He made for the men’s room, selected a commode, and ... set his glass down on the checkered table cloth. The breeze toyed with the chcsnut blossoms, diffusing their scent all about the cafe. He smiled at the model, a wonderful compliment to the European atmosphere and the Champs-Elysccs beyond. She spoke to him in French, saying, “Comment trouves-tu Paris?’’ Joe giggled and said awkwardly, “Mon francais n'est pas trop bon.’’ The model fingered her pearl necklace and winked at him fetchingly. He felt the cool breeze ripple through his hair, as the scene suddenly shifted, and a moun- tain whizzed by. His goggles began to fog as he avoide i the treacherously placed trees. All of sudden, CRASH. BANG!! He landed in tangle of pine boughs, and as the wor went black, his last memory was the con forting scent of the pine needles lashir with his teacher’s aftershave. Joe awoke to the odor of Mr. Socioloj Teacher’s breath on his face. As he opcnc his eyes wider, he found himself face-t face, nose-to-nosc, and cye-to-eyc with tl grim countenance of Mr. Soc. “And where have you been Joseph?” I: inquired sternly. Joe sighed, and a flas • back of the pine boughs lingered in h mind as the harsh sound of the bell we.-corned him back to school. Joe's hand seem to have the dealer at a loss. The native beauty gates at Joe adoringly. 236 MINI-MAGAZINE “Oh la la! C'csl unc ires belle femme. thinks Joe. Joe is rudely awakened by Mr. Sociology while the vision of pine boughs lingers in his head. MINI-MAGAZINE 237 FOREIGN AID How many times have your parents made a comment something like People arc starving in Africa so cat your dinner!” Your reaction probably was a grunt, but if you continued to think about the matter, you would finish that week old casserole. The hunger situation over the past years in Ethiopia has become critical. Thousands of starving people have created worldwide concern. Pictures, articles, telethons, and ads have influenced a large majority of the American public to contribute to funds set up to aid the Ethiopian people. However, there arc some people who believe that Ethiopia's government should be left on it’s own to provide the necessary food and care that it’s people so desperately need. What do you think America’s role should be in giving foreign aid? (Specifically to Ethiopia) How should our government participate? Anonymous: I believe we should help the Ethiopians after we help the unemployed Americans who arc starving by giving them surplus food that the government has stored. Anonymous: I think that everyone in America should bring one dollar to their nearest post office. The post office could send the money to the government which would be a great deal of help to starving countircs. Anonymous: America should give foreign aid to underdeveloped countries in the way of food and clothing. However, not at the expense of our own poor and starving. As for fire arms, they should only be supplied to countries that arc fighting for their freedom from Communism of defending themselves from this fiend. Anonymous: I think that our government should help to educate Ethiopians. We should show them the new methods of agriculture — introduce and put to work the new technological farming equipment. We can not support them for the rest of our lives. We can help them to solve their problems by educating them. We can not afford to support them endlessly. Anonymous: I don’t know if the government should participate, but as for Americans, I think we should do something. We arc all human beings, no matter what color or religion. When one human suffers, we all suffer. I think that in the ease of Ethiopia we (Americans) should help feed, clothe, cure, and introduce them to modern ways of life. The human life is precious — let’s help it continue. Grade II: I feel the U.S. should not gel involved in Ethiopian aid. It has been proven that their Communist government misuses aid that we have given them. The U.S. seems to bail everyone out all over the world, even our enemies. We must draw the line somewhere. We didn’t cause the problem, so why is it our responsibility to solve it? Obviously the land there is not designed to support the massive amounts of people there. If, according to the laws of natural selection, we let the weak die, we will get the number of people living down there to a reasonable level. Giving them free aid is contrary to our purposes and just prolongs the Ethiopian’s agony. Grade (11): America should play a larger role in aid to foreign countries. As a major power in the world, it is our responsibility to do as much as possible. The government should supply them with knowledge of how to take care of themselves- not only supply money and food which will only last a short while, not permanently. ABORTION This year there were several bombir incidents at abortion clinics nationwid Protests against abortion have grow through church groups, community lea ers, and concerned citizens. The repub can platform was strongly against the i sue. Although Edina students may not directly affected, many have develop opinions concerning this controversial i sue. What arc your views on abortion? Do the concur with your parent’s views? Why c j you feel the way you do on the issue? Anonymous: I feel that it should be a personal choice. The government should not make decisions that affect our lives and have nothing to do with the protection of the country. The purpose of (the) government is to protect our life, liberty, and property, not to make moral decisions about what is right or wrong. Heather Gilchrist (12): Abortion, to me. is a very confusing subject. I grew up accepting that abortion was a solution for an unwanted pregnancy, but 1 was never in favor of it. My parents were not either. But now I realize it is a fact of life. I am against death of all forms, but if a woman feels that abortion is the best way to deal with her problem, then it must be done Sara Goodnough (II): Abortion is a very controversial moral issue, which has attracted a lot of attention recently. I pc -sonally don’t believe in abortion because t goes against my personal ethics and re i-gion, but 1 do not believe that my persor il ethics should dictate and hinder the fr e choice of other Americans. The violence n the bombing of abortion clinics is hyp -critical and intolerable. I guess I could e called pro-choice. Grade 10: I believe in giving foreign aid to other countries, but as in the ease of Ethiopia, we should only give aid in helping them in long-term areas like providing them with an education and not just handing them food. Grade 10: Why on earth is everyone concerned with all these people over in Ethiopia while our own country is in so much turmoil? Let’s take care of important issues here at home before we start worrying about other countries. Grade (11): (Americans should) pay an extra tax for the foreign aid. Anonymous: I think our government should help a lot more than what they arc doing today. The government could be sending a lot more food to Ethiopia with not much more effort. We must help all nations in need with the exception of military aid. Did you know that it costs approximately one million dollars to send the president to his ranch? Security, publicity, traveling costs....cct. Anonymous: I think abortion is good t;-causc if a person doesn’t want to have 3 kid they have a choice to get rid of it. I I was pregnant and did not want to havi a kid, I would get an abortion. Anony mous: I feel that people should ha -e the right to destroy what they created. My parents agree. Anony mous: I feel that abortion should be allowed with the parents concent. Some things can not be prevented. 238 MINI-MAGAZINE Fabulous Flirts Arc you constantly batting your cyc-ishcs, or applying lucious little dabs of •erfurne or cologne to places no one’s nose vould ever dare to venture? These meth-ds, and a variety of other tactics, not nentioned for fear just the mere reading f them would throw the inquirer into a tad fury of incontroiablc passion, are fre-ucntly employed in the seemingly never nding quest to capture the attention of 1C opposite sex. Another name for this nportant part of a highschoolcr’s life is ic simple term, “flirting.” It hardly seems ispcctablc cnought to refer to it as this, ecausc of the overwhelming role flirting lays in everything one docs. Some com-Mon ways a person might flirt include ody motions, clothes, eyes, or fragrance. One might picture a flirtatious girl as a blond, squeezed into plastic jeans, with a contagious giggle and a clcvcagc the size of Mt. Rushmore. On the masculine hand, a flirtatious guy is the kind who wears Chaps. Polo, or Brute cologne depending on if he is in a rugged, sexy, or he-man type mood. The flirtatious guy tends to be the type who will raise an eyebrow, seductively smile, or maybe even go so far as to make lewd comments about various voluptuous areas of the feminine form in order to get his point across. While the art of flirting has its advantages. many find it to be a fun, and worthwhile activity. In so many words, either it has a dramatic, captivating effect, or you flub it up and make a fool out of yourself and the other person involved. Take, for example, a classic embarrassment -your’rc running up the stairs and who would be going the opposite way but that special someone. As you brightly smile and say hello, your foot just happens to Jim Miller ( IOi tries out his animal instincts on Erica Hagen (II) miss the next stair and you, with your books, fall flat on your face and to make matters worse, get a bloody nose all over his or her shoe. But don’t let this little example get you down on the subject of flirting. If you use it properly, flirting may prove to be the start of an interesting relationship. S(e ie Benjamin 110), Rachel Wearer (10). and Tulie Maeier (IOi. gawk at the guys. Andy Roy 110) and Mike Roclofs (IOi discuss flirting tactics as they get ready for their hot dates. MINI MAG 239 DRAFT Upon entering high school, many of the male students begin to seriously think about registering for the draft. It is required that every eligible male, eighteen years of age. must sign up to serve their country. Although most young men arc willing to register, some find it against their personnel beliefs and moral values to fight a war if such a situation arose. For these young men, financial aid for college is withheld, and they are prohibited from obtaining civil service jobs. Women, on the other hand, are not required to register. Yet, many females, and males think that women, just like men, should be requirred to serve their country. Do you feel the draft should be enacted at this point in time? Under what circumstances would you feel the draft would be justified? Charlie Rogers (12): I feel that the draft would be justified at any point when our country is endangered. I would not think twice about joining to serve our country when it truly needs to be served. 1 would object, however, to being forced to serve for another country’s benefit, such as Vietnam. Lebanon, or El Salvador. When our country itself is endangered, then I would be the first in line. Female (12): I feel that a draft would be justified if it were an absolute national emergency. Female (12): No, I don’t want to be carted off to fight against my will. I believe that no one should be drafted. If we arc involved in a war, the decision to enter the war is made by Congress, which represents the people, and if the people want a war, let them be the ones to fight voluntarily — (the] problem is [that] not one of them would fight!! Female: I feel that the people who will best defend our country should be drafted. Female (12): No. It would be too hard on women — they need to raise the family. Female (10): Yes. If there is a draft, it’s not only right that it is for both men and women. It’s not fair that men have to leave and women get to stay because they’re thought of as the weaker sex. Charlie Rogers (12): If women truly want the ERA. then they should accept the negative things as well as the benefits. Right now too many women want all the benefits and advantages, but not the negatives, one of which would be the draft. If the women truly want this, then I believe that to be truly equal they must be drafted. My personal opinion is that they should not. Male (12): [They] shouldn’t be included because I feel that the women would fold under pressure. Of course men could, loo. and I’m not chauvinistic, but [I] wouldn’t feel right if I’m 4F and my wife of girlfriend is drafted in my place. PARKING parking system is the security guard. I feel he is an insult to an already well-behaved Edina student body. Grade 11: The parking situation is great f you have a permit because it guarantc s you a place to park. On the other hand, f you don’t have a permit, parking at tl c high school can be very depressing. Grade 10: I think that there shouldn’t I; any problem with parking, there arc a • ways plenty of extra spaces. Also 1 dot t think that we should even be charged f r permits, it is enough of an expense alrca y to drive to school. About the secur y guard, if kids would just keep out of t te teachers lot. then he wouldn 7 be he c. Maybe next year we won’t need him. Grade 10: I think it should be open. Permits arc too hard to get and the price is (• o high for just parking. The security gua d uses bad language and he is very rude and mean. I think you should fire him for sure. That’s what the whole school wants, so why not do it. He writes bad language on the parking tickets. Grade 11: 1 think the prices are OK. but why docs each car have to pay S.50? $.25 is enough. But I don’t think the price will stop us from driving. 1 feel the security guard is a big waste. He just hassles kids all day long and tickets and tows them. Edina High is becoming more and more like a prision every day. If he sees them outside he asks constant questions. He even stops parents going by. Female (12): The draft would be justified if our country was going to war or was in trouble. Female (10): The draft would be justified if our country was in serious threat of war, otherwise a draft is just a waste of a person’s life. Do you feel women should be included in the draft? Why? Why not? Female (12): NO — if total equal rights were existant in America, then it would be justified to draft women. Otherwise, the way things stand today, men receive more pay for the same job. and this is not just: women should not have to go to war if they aren't given equal rights in other areas. Female (11): No. because men should do it since they think that they arc so superior and they (the men) did it before, so they can do it again! The parking situation at school reached a critical point this year as the administration felt compelled to hire a security guard to enforce their rules. Many students felt that having a guard to insure that they remained in school created conditions very similar to a high security prison. Prices were another issue students were unhappy with. Whether it was a yearly, monthly, or daily permit that was purchased, students seemed to feel that the money spent on parking was an unnecessary leak in their pockets. What do you think about the parking situation? Should it be open? How do you feel about the prices for permits? How do you feel about the security guard? Jason Bush (12): Living in a place like Edina is a privilege. We pay high taxes for these privileges. Paying for parking is acceptable to me because Edinians can afford it. This is true, and we are willing to pay. The only place I disagree in Edina’s Grade 12: The parking situation is unfa r. They tow people haphazardly and with malice. They make it too difficult to get -it seems that only the Hornettes, jocls. and student council, etc. get them. That is ridiculous. Grade 12: I think we need to get rid of t x security guard and his Magnum .44. If c didn’t have the guard to pay for, c wouldn’t have to pay $20 for parking in 3 parking lot which our parents built wi h their tax money. Grade (11): I feel parking should be op n. but it should be first come first serve. P r-mits arc an organized way of dealing w th it, but I feel the school’s method is territ c. The security guard acts as a prison gua d. He has a bad job, but he makes it worse It takes so little effort to be nice. The s 11-dents should be able to park here. After all. It's our school isn’t it? I think that people who have jobs, extra curricular activities. etc ... should have parking priority. 240 MINI-MAGAZINE P C',a 'lopr„fcc ; Prvp a rights of SOUTHDALE OPTICAL COMPANY EYEWEAR CERTIFIED OPTICIANS • THOUSANDS OF FRAMES ON DISPLAY • FASHION FRAMES AVAILABLE IN 14K GOLD.

One wants to express their uniqueness; to show the world that they are different. The change certainly Is an appreciated getaway from the conforming clones of years past. All the Levi jeans, oxford shirts, and New Balance running shoes are basically gone (except for a few doldrum diehards) and 1984 has emerged with a new sense of dressing and acting with a message.” However, many of these independent visions are ill conceived (in other words, being done for the wrong reasons). People are currently caught up loud inside of washers and dryers, they should be considered registered weaponr The first question, of course, is why?” Why does one choose to dress in suJi bizarre garb? Ii certain-:, couldn't be for the so called look . The most common answer. I am told, is tlui people want to be diHerein.

How we create our opinions and behcls ,ts we grow older will determine our destinies. We cannot create in- dividually by molding a person’s mannerisms or fashion attitudes. The mind must be molded to individual thoughts as opposed to conformist thoughts. In essence, to individuals, contoi tiling should be considered a foui letter word. What I am trying to say is that dressing to be different, is OK as long as you also have a nonconforming mind that is willing to defend oik’s own beliefs. If everyone in a room disagrees with something you just said, you have to be able to remain confident about your opinions despite peer pressures. Be an individual and all. that’s great. But allow me to suggest to you and to remind you that your individualism is with you eternally. It is not something you decide to wear each morning. It is something you must learn and believe in -not something you can buy at Dayton’s. Borgen. Peter (12) 198 Borgenson, Jaimes (12) 46, 198 Borkon. Bard (II) 174 Borkon, Lauren (12) 67, 198 Borus.

Edina was one of 114 public high schools chosen from 555 in the Secondary School Recognition Program initiated last year by Secretary of Education T.H. Bell. Principal James Cabalka (adm.) completed a detailed application form to provide a profile of our school. Secretary Bell said the schools were judged against a list of “attributes for success such as goals, discipline, teacher efficiency, attendance rates, instructional improvement, administrative leadership, and test scores. After the application was com- pleted. Edina and three other area high schools were visited by Dr. Dorothy Shipmens from Ball State University, who in turn recommended Edina and Richfield for the award. In June. Cabalka was informed that Edina High School had won this special award and on August 27, he went to Washington D.C. He accepted a flag with Excellence in Education and the United States seal printed on it from President Reagan and Secretary Bell. He said. “It was such an honor to represent the school and the community, and a real thrill to meet the President. Cabalka stated, This special recognition of excellence tops all others our school has received.” Donnelly. Patrick (10) 160 Donohue. Catherine (12) 202 Donohue. Kristin (II) 83. 114. 176 Dorn.

The dictionary defines the word security as the quality of being secure; free of danger. At Edina High School, security has never been a true problem. In the past two years monitors have been placed in the bathrooms and a security officer has been placed in the parking lot. These people work for Centurion Security, a company which is now contracted by Edina High School. Along with the necessary role some feel these people play comes a very unsettling thought of having an officer at school for fear of what his presence may lead to in the future. Twenty hours a week this officer is here - of course on different days to confuse the more observant students. From 7:00-7:45 he watches the students to make sure they do not park their cars in the faculty’s parking lot. After most students are studiously in class, the officer patrols the student parking lot giving tickets to deserving violators. According to the administration, the lunches seem to pose a problem as well. Therefore, the security officer stations himself at the top of the hill at noon asking students where they intend to go and what their names are. Along with these activities he takes between two to five trips to the mens bathroom to discourage smoking. The questions being asked are. where do the funds come from to pay these people who supposedly secure us from the smokers, the out-to-lunch crowd, and the vandals. According to the administration, there is a budget set up for the contracting of this company that is supplemented by funds that arc derived from parking permits. Most students who park in the lot want the reassurance that not only is their car safe, but that there will also be a place to park every day. According to the officer, last year the company did not have enough tow trucks to enforce parking regulations at the school. This year, six trucks are available to tow offenders. Along with the ticketing of parking violators, tickets for speeding and reckless driving have been given to the unwary. Two questions remain. What will be the next target of this administration? Are these people really making this school secure” for the students? The student body must examine the necessity of his presence at this high school. Just exactly how much is appropriated lor their presence, and does Edina truly need such so-called ' security. Moss. William (10) 166 Mostrom, Douglas (II) 80. 184 Mozac. Todd (II) 184 Mo is.

Mary (fac) 151 Students experience Edina culture by Karen Goldstein To most, spending a school year in a foreign country is beyond imagination. But to nine students of Edina High School this year, this dream is a reality. These students came to Edina from different countries around the world so they could experience American culture. They also came to become more fluent in the English language and to have a fun and different school year. They all seem to be adjusting well to the different culture, and for the most part really like it here, especially the Friday and Saturday night parties and the football games,” stressed Michael Grimaitre (12) who is from Switzerland. American History was voted one of the hardest classes by the exchange students because it’s another culture. It’s different from what I’ve learned in the past, said Isabelle Castellan (12) from France. The majority of the students said that their school at home was more difficult than Edina. For instance, in Japan, classes are in session Monday through Saturday and the summer break is just a month, unlike Edina’s three month break. Maria-Eugenia Vargas (12) from Bolivia said that school for her is not difficult. 1 just had to get used to studying in English! However, Annika Eueland (12) feels differently. She thinks that Edina High School is harder and stricter than her school in Sweden. There arc some classes that are not normally offered in high school in other countries that are offered at Edina, such as Calculus, Microcomputer and Communications Lab. Many exchange program exist which send students America. AFS seems to be t) most popular. Some of tl other programs include Peop to People Japan, Amicus, ar AISE. Eueland didn’t come on program. Her family h friends in Edina and she he decided that it would be fun t come to America for a scho year. The other exchange studen are Eric Gloerson (12) fro Norway, Hiroe Morisawa (I from Japan, Alonso Bolam (12) from Spain, Malina La' son (12) from Sweden, am Ted Noguchi (12) from Japar All of the new students lik: Edina but it’s different from their home town. I think Edina is a great place! proclaimed Morisawa. Pollack. Marlcn (10) 168 Poncius, Kristin (II) 67. 186 Popowich. Carol (12) 224 Pora. Beat a (12) 46. 224 Porter. Maria (12) 224 Porter.

These new TV monitors, called Electronic Bulletin Boards, have recently been installed in both the commons and the cafeteria. The system includes a Vic 20 computer keyboard, a color generator, and the four TV sets. According to James Cabalka (adm.), a grant has covered the cost of this new technological addition. Certain monies have been specified to fund the use and purchase of computer, along with other technichal equipment In general, the monitors purpose is to display the daily announcements. These messages will run throughout the day until they are erased. With the help of the monitors, all this information can be transmitted to the student body. According to Cabalka, it will greatly cut-down on all the annoying interruptions at the end of sixth hour. The information exhibited will include sports results, club rpeetings, and other important announcements. When asked asked about the installment, Cabalka replied, The monitors will inform the school of different happenings and show results of various things. It will help to publicize student activities and achievements.” Aside from giving the announcements, the monitors are also capable of of showing both regular television and cable programming. This is to benefit teachers and other staff who may wish to video tape a specific program for their classes. The monitors are currently on a trial period. As long as there is no vandalism and the system proves to be useful, we can count on seeing the television monitors for quite some time. INDEX 269 Smith. Ruth (II) 79. 189. 60 Smyth.

II Reverse roles encountered by Stephanie Benjamin For years, studenls have been accustomed to the typical boy-ask - girl encounters. However, with the annual Sweetheart Dance upon us. the tables are being turned. Girls are finding themselves in the rather unfamiliar position of asking boys to a dance. For many girls, the experience can prove to be very interesting. to say the least. Karen Belrose (12) remembers the moment. “I asked him in front of other people. When I did. it became really quiet and when he said ‘ves everyone cheered. Some girls have more confidence than others. “Yes seems to be the expected reply. I haven’t even asked my boyfriend yet. said Christy Neilson (12). I’ve already-bought a dress and I just assume we're going...at least I hope we are. There is also the whimpy girl who doesn’t ask anyone because there is no one I want to ask. or “I really don’t want to go: I don’t have the money.’’ To them. Sweetheart can be very sad dening. They have no chance of going because they're chicken. Now they know what that guy who has vet to go on date because he’s too ern harassed to ask anyone ou feels like. On the other side of th coin. The Sweetheart Dance i a rest for boys’ wallets (Besides, guys, isn’t it aboi time to start saving up for th evcr-popular. breathtaking! expensive Prom Dance?) It about time we were wined an dined, remarked Peter Op (12). I think it’s a good c: pericnce for girls to spent money on something beside clothes and diet coke. The Sweetheart Dance also gives the boy the chance to sec what it is like to have to wail for someone to ask him out They cannot initiate the date, all they can do is flirt and hope. All and all. the majority of girls feel that the stress-filled confrontation is well worth it. whether they asked a complete stranger or that special someone. Sushak. Robert (II) 190 Sutton.

Omar (11) 67, 19] Broomball tournament unites clubs by Erie Weber German club is sponsoring an official broomball tournament which will involve the other language clubs as well as the publication staffs. The first game of the tournament will be on February twentieth, with the championship game to be held on March first. All of the games will be played at Countryside Park. The games arc being held at 3:00 p.m. on the following dates: February 20. 21. 22. 25. 26. and 27th. Kris Hoffman (12), Matt Peterson (11). Scott Bredehoft (II), and Roxanne Barnes (10) who planned out the broomball tournament did it for various reasons. We want German club to get some recognition. explained Hoffman. “and we want to be more involved in the school. The teams are being organized by each individual club but the rules state that only seven players per team are allowed to be on the ice at a time. The game is played much the same as hockey, except for two major differences. One. the players wear shoes instead of skates, and two. the hockey stick has been replaced with the broom. Hence the name broomball. J.J. Hiniker (II), one of the two captains on the French Club team, commented. It is a chance to participate in a sport with other classmates and friends. The French Club is not the only group that is optimistic. The German Club also has high hopes. Matt Peterson (11), a member of the German Club, voiced his opinion as to the outcome of the tournament. We (the German club) arc going to den everyone! Marlin Hid) (fac.), the German club advisor, will be the referee for the games. The games will not be extremely competitive, rather they will be more geared towards fun. “We want the tournament to be for fun rather than for blood. explained Hoffman. The hopes of the originators of the tournament arc that it will become a tradition. Hopefully there will be a travelling trophy for the winning team to have possession of until the next tournament. With all the teams geared up for their games, the broomball tournament should provide a great deal of excitement and fun. INDEX 271 Young, Claire (10) 171 Young. Philip (12) 235 Yuan.

Chamber Singers fame grows by Nancy Goldstein On February 7. the Edina Chamber Singers will be singing ai Maealastcr College with the Dale Warlan Singers. This is jusi one of ihe many examples of the public performances they are invited to sing ai. Invitations for the Chamber Singers to sing at private parties are also numerous. These numerous invitations reveal how specialthis extention of the Concert Choir really is. The Chamber Singers is comprised of sixteen carefully selected voices; these people are generally considered in the music department as the sixteen best singers in the school. They rehearse Tuesdays and Thursdays after school for three hours. The lime commitment is not overbearing according to the singers. During December it took up a lot of time because of all the performances, explained chamber singer Charlie Rogers (12). but it was worth it when the final product was done. The group usually sings songs that were composed in the I5thand 16th century Rcn-naissance in England. France. Italy, and Germany. Since most Christmas carols were composed during this time, the group received numerous invitations to sing during the holiday seasons, at which time they were performing every day. Aside from holiday parties. the chamber singers have sung at the Burwell Mansion, Calhoun Square, and many times at the Dccathalon Club.

The group is often hired for private performances to entertain the public with their repeloire of Renaissance music. Edina executives honor EHS seniors by Kathy Sullivan Without much recognition, the Rotary Club has been at it again. What is the Rotary Club? George Skluzacek (adm.) defines it as a group of Edina businessmen who get together to promote a common good. However, the organization doesn’t just include Edina. Presently it includes over 160 nations in the world. Each one works with the others to sponsor exchange students and scholarship programs. A hoy from Japan will be coming to Edina as an exchange student as a result of the Rotary Club. They also sponsor students from here to go abroad as exchange students. The Rotary Club’s 130 plus members from Edina include businessmen, lawyers, clergymen, city officials, and school officials, including Ralph I.iebcr. the superinten-dant of Edina Public Schools. Every Thursday afternoon they have a luncheon meeting at the Camelot restaurant to discuss their upcoming activities. Two Edina High School seniors, a boy and a girl, arc invited to each of these meetings in order to become familiar with what the club does, how they run their meetings, and to meet the members. Sklu acek chooses these students each week from a list of 100 candidates. At each meeting a special guest speaker is also invited, for example one time Governor AI Quic was the honored guest. Although lunch at the Camelot might not seem like that big of a deal, the Rotary Club has been doing the ir-rcplacible service of recognizing students as people and treating them as such. They take the time to show some hardworking students of Edina High School that they realize doing well in high school takes dedication and hard work and they reward them with a special lunch date. 272 INDEX Flipping Fulford - a first by Jim Barnard hopes of cheering last year but at would be at his discretion. Edina has a new perspective associated with its sporting events this year. For the first time in the history of Edina cheerleading, there is a male, Tim Fulford (12), leading the cheers. The obvious questions that come to mind are how this came to be and why. The “why part of the question is easily answered. Fulford explained it simply,“I have the ability to show more excitement and I can create school spirit. He is very dedicated to his cheerleading and hopes to be taken seriously. The how part of the question is a different story. It wasn’t easy for Fulford to become a cheerleader. He had for various reasons it didn’t work out. This year the Booster Club was in favor of guy-cheerleaders along with the traditional girls. Fulford went out looking for partners, but with no avail. Still, he did not give up. He decided that he would go to the cheerleading captains practices in the summer and try out on his own. The cheerleaders seemed excited about him becoming a cheerleader, so Fulford talked to Pacy Erck (fac.) the chcerlcading coordinator, about long term plans. They came out with a mutual agreement. Fulford was accepted as an official school cheerleader and which sporting events he would cheer He is not going to limit himself to just a few sports, though. Tim takes part in track and gymnastics during the year. Both play an important part in his cheering. He captivates the crowd with assorted flips and tricks on his mini-trampoline. He also has a megaphone from which he bellows cheers. Fulford feels the school could use more spirit. He and all the cheerleaders are trying to do something about it. They lead the cheers, but according to him, it is the crowds’ duty to follow up and support them. It is very discouraging for them to yell a cheer without any response. It’s not a joke,” stressed Fulford. We are there for the fans and the team. We’re trying our hardest. Students help to cope by Kara Benson Sometimes students find themselves needing help coping with every day life, and they feel as if they have no where to turn. A new group has formed in Edina to provide assistance to such persons. Todd Mogilner (12) formed the oringinal concept of this Social Suppport Group last summer. He saw a need for a youth oriented suppor-tgroup with no adult interference. This need which he saw was based on his own experiences. I went to many different counselors, and there was no way I could keep anything private, Mogilner explained. He feels (hat the attitudes and policies of many professionals in the area do not develop the confidence of young people. Mogilner added, Anything I asked of them was done opposite because they were adults... Mogilner spent this past summer talking to psychologists and counselors about the best way to go about creating a support group for exclusively kids. The results were rewarding-over 300 pages of advice and files. This, along with his own experiences is the basis for the group. Advisors for the support system are Mogilner, Robin Buzby (12), Eric Weber (11), Amy Lee (12), John Roach (11) , and Ann Melaas (12) .Thus far, the group has not yet met and is still in the process of being set up. The Social Support Group is not sponsored by the school and the advisors have not yet contacted the administration. There will be a notice posted when the group has its first meeting. The group will focus on building friendships and trust among its members. The purpose is to provide an outlet for people needing someone to talk to or help with problems they are going through. Buzby commented, “Sometimes people want help but there’s no way they would go to a counselor. It’s too drastic. By planning activities and building relationships, the advisors hope to help. We’re providing a group for people whef need some friends to deal with their problems, Buzby continued. Membership is not a total committment,’’ explained Mogilner, we’re there to help each other. All articles included in the index were taken from the 1984-85 issues of the Zephyrus. We would like to thank Mach Arom for his advice and the Zephyrus staff for putting up with the 3R strewn “pit”. We might miss you. INDEX 273 Good-Bye Windigo Dear Readers, Being the editors of a yearbook is not easy, as a matter of fact it is a pain in the neck. However, we will not tell you all about it, for, as much as we would like to complain, we would rather be martyers. We would also like to thank a few people for making our enormous trial a little easier. First, we would like to thank last year’s editors for starting us out in a manner which accuratly portrayed what was to come. When they weren’t force feeding us baby food, they managed to give us a fair amount of moral support and aid. From this point we must progress to summer supplement. We have Mr. and Mrs. MeBurney for its very cxistance, there would be no summer supplements at all, then everyone would have something to complain about. We would also like to thank Lisa Berg (10), who, at the spur of the moment, wrote a copy which would have been a credit to a senior much less an incoming sophomore. The MSPHA Workshop was the next stop on our editor’s journey, (a stop which, although we aren't complaining, was cx-treamly HOT.) Evan Ornston, deserves our thanks for providing us with endless hours of entertainment. We must now progress into the real world of yearbooking, third hour in the Graphic Arts room- with tables for one and all. And, of course, DEADIines. Deadlines this year have been marked by a number of unique personalities. Perhaps one of the most unique, both in his ability to complete his work, and in his ability to entertain, is Brian Kelly (10). Yes, you guessed it the originator of Winditalk. His contributions to this yearbook will never be forgotten. Another Sophomore who was a definate presence on the staff was Kevin Mcl ughlin, who, to borrow a quote ’’didn’t dress like a Sophomore”, at least that’s what we hear from the flutes. As a good deal of our staff is made up cf sophomores, we have a number of them to thank- or at least mention. We will start with Rachel Weaver, who managed all our mini-mags with aplomb and expertise. Ac- tivities staffers, while a great help, weren’t the only members to aid and abet production, classes and athletics staffers. So, a thank you to Kelly Cusac for getting your stuff in on time, to Lori Fore, whose methodical work was a joy to proof, and finally, a special thanks to Nancy Ball for doing the ’s’’s. There were not many who worked above and beyond duty, but one of them was Jim Miller (10), whose skill in the darkroom was appreciated by all. Another was Erika Hagen (11), who stepped in as classes section editor in trying circumstances, to pull senior section together and put it out to press. Now it seems we have traversed into section editor territory, which means, of course, we have moie people to thank. For a starter Carrie Ryder (12) has our heartfelt gratitude for marching into her section editor’s position with virtually r.o experience, only to dazzle us with her designing skills. Michelle Harris (12), our sports editor, did herself proud, we especially appreciated her patience when it came to sports minimag- we knew she would love that tilted picture! Two people deserve our life long veneration for all the grief they put up with about finances- Ruth Wikoff (U)and Ruth Smith (11). While still spending time on our staffers. we would like to give a very special thanks to Megan MeBurney (11), who cheered us in times of trouble, and a good deal more usefull then that, pitched in to end them. Oh. and before we leave our immediate yearbook connections, we want to thank Mr. Lewis and Mr. Kcuhn for helping us through the rough times. We now move on to the miscellaneous thank yous, or in other words thank yous to people we don’t know how to categorize. These include our long sulfering Josten’s representative Burt Hedstrum, who, while he did like to meet in interesting places, saved our bcok a number of times. Pam Ortega also comes under the category of long suffering, and her long distance help will forever be remembered. While we are thanking Jostens people we want to ac- knowledge all those hapless people who had to spend their time copying over little 2pt. 100% black lines- we do appreciate it. When we couldn’t find our regular photographers and were in desperate straites, Todd Mogilner (12) came to the rescue, so for the ABC pictures especially. Thank You (we also appreciate your answering our incessent phone calls). The subject of group photos calls Kurt Eilers (12) to mind- to him goes our ever lasting gratitude for all the organizing he did- what would we have done without it? We also thank the Pfolcs for saving our homecoming spread with their negatives, and Dave Langholfz for breathing new life into News Issucs with his Mondale photos. To the parents of our staffers, we thank you for your indulgence in allowing your children out at night, for giving them up over the week end, and a special thanks to those of you who offered your house up to our teeming hoards. Mr. and Mrs. MeBurney, Mr. and Mrs. Silverman, Mr. and Mrs. Ball. Mr. and Mrs. Miller, Ms. McLaughlin, Ms. MeBurney, and Ms. Peter- we hope we weren’t too bad. Now we would like to take time for a personal thank you to our parents. Thank you Mr. and Ms. Kohout for refraining from violence when Betsy didn’t call, for late night sessions with the word possessor, and for letting her cry. Thank you Ms. Peter for donating your home to Windigo (we know that blue clashes with purple), for not saying anything when you couldn’t sec the floor of Flikka’s room for a month, and for understanding. Thank you to Mr. Furney for making us feel like human beings, and for making us laugh. Now we have almost come to the end of our thank yous- but there is one we can' forget, to all those staffers who typed, re typed, and typed again the senior forms you are wonderful. We had reserved the last thank you fo ourselves- we think we deserve it- but wi would like to share it with the rest of the staff. Thank you everybody- you did a wonderful job. 274 CLOSING I'll take .1 large cheese and mushroom, with anchovies. sausage, pepproni. onions, green peppers and tomatoes nda cute delivers boy.

CLOSING 275 saying good-bye With the consummation of nine months of scholastic dedication, Edina High School students could reflect with pride on their tenacity in staying a step ahead. A sense of fulfillment was energetically pursued and finally achieved among those contributing to the school’s prosperity. The successful 1984-85 school year was embellished with the spirited people, special events, athletics, organizations, and academic work that put it all together. Impressive accomplishments, such as the numbers of state championships, were almost natural occurrences at Edina High School. Even technology was advanced with the graceful decoration of video display monitors in the corridors, although they were seldom used for their original purpose of displaying announcements. Yet, these self-motivating achievements did not prevent the students from helping unselfishly with the school’s philanthropic efforts. The huge canned food drive and fund-raising Charity Week proved their generosity. This year’s school spirit was so overwhelming that, in the eyes of the conservative administration, it had to be subdued by restricting the number of pepfests. much to the resentment of the students. Experiences were shared, and good times blossomed. Having fun was a common goal for Edina students who took part in dances, musical events, and weekend activities. Yet, life wasn't all joy; it was hard work, as well. We suffered at times, but we survived and became close friends in the process. Not only did the school benefit and ripen with yet another year of quality leaching and growth, but students continutcd their rites of passage as young adults. Sophomores hatched into juniors, juniors metamorphosed into seniors, and seniors once again took wing into the world. To Edina High School, thanks for the memories ... we arc certain you will forever succeed at being a step ahead.
