And when all is said and done, the pleasant memories out- weight the melancholy, the successes overshadow the struggles. These are the times that will bring satisfaction and fulfillment to each student of Frankenmuth High in the years ahead. With these thoughts in mind, the 1974 Eyrie staff has attempted to capture such invaluable memories in the opening section of this volume, with the theme, “Upon the Silent Shore of Memory.” In “The Excur- sion” by William Wordsworth, he writes: And when the stream, Which overflowed the soul was passed away, A consciousness remained that it had left, Deposited upon the silent shore of memory, Images and precious thoughts That shall not die, and cannot be destroyed.” It is our wish that this yearbook will be that “silent shore for each FHS grad- Editor uate as the years pass by. $1624 9688 TRAE RG BERT san بها جا‎ + dde CREED SE dà tere dod dd © eg KE pras KE RDG ED HOR re ee ren a.

Nearly seven hours of their day was spent in wandering through the laby- rinthine corridors of F.H.S. in an attempt to gain that precious wisdom the youth so often hears about. Each student discovered something different during this journey and it was these varying ideas and feel- ings that made Frankenmuth High the enchanting mosaic it was. Every individual contributed his part to make F.H.S. what it was this year, and the memory of each will live on. Some will be remembered by all, but each will be remembered by someone. In Memorium: Dennis L. Kern Dennis Lee Kern was born on June 14, 1956, to Mr. and Mrs. Carl Kern as the sec- ond of four children. Dennis attended St. Lorenz Lutheran School through the 8th grade. While attending Frankenmuth High School as a member of the class of 1974, he was also a junior usher at St. Lorenz Lutheran Church. Dennis was an ardent fan of all local and national sports, and knew many sports statistics by memory. Being brought up on a farm, Dennis played an important part in working with his father and older brother on their land. It was in a farm accident on March 26, 1973, that Dennis passed away. Those who knew him will always remember his friendly smile that never seemed to fade from his face. One of Dennis’s major interests in high school was industrial education. He was en- rolled in nearly every class available in this department and maintained an excep- tional average. When he died, his class established The Dennis L. Kern Industrial Education Award, an honor given each year to the outstanding student in that de- partment. The first recipient of the award was his brother Ken. It is the wish of the Class of 1974 that each student who is deemed worthy of this award in the future will accept it with respect for what it represents. The Graduating Class Of 1974 From ordering graduation announcements to address- ing the envelopes, from being measured for caps and gowns to donning them for the first and final time, this is the road the senior class travelled their final high school year. Realizing that they were the oldest students at Frankenmuth High and it was really “their” Senior Prom came easily for some and slower for others. Nonetheless, in the end, the words “senior” and “graduation” had their own special meaning for each member of the class of '74. On the following seven pages are those students who truly believed in their hearts that the class of 1974 was the greate st ever; this pride will always be theirs. a.

Wilson A. Keinath A. Koester M. Raymond f R. Reinert g. J. Young K. Zehnder As one looks at the surface of a school system, he first sees the building, its facilities, and its students. We at Frankenmuth High are proud of these surface images. However, to truly understand and appreciate these facets one must look deeper to realize what makes it all possible. After all is said and done, the success of a school system lies entirely in the ingenuity and co- operation of the administration. No matter how much we students are dissatisfied with the pressures and regulations set by these men and women, in the end we all realize how fortunate we are to have more- than-capable personnel be part of F.H.S. We are sin- cerely as proud of our “inside” as our “outside”. Dedication and Sincere interest in Frankenmuth High School best describe the members of our board of education. Their coopera- tion with the faculty, the stud ents, and other FHS administrators has helped to lengthen the list of school programs available to students and members of the community. In one way or another, each stu- dent has been favorably affected by the board’s work; hence, the school board is partially responsible for restoring school pride over the past few years. a The Frankenmuth High School Board of Edu- cation members are a.) Mr. Melvin Wenzel, b.) Mr. Walter Frahm, president since 1961, c.) Mr. E. F. Rittmueller, secretary, d.) Dr. Harold Braeutigam, treasurer, e.) Mr. Gerald Rustem, the newest member, f.) Mr. Harold Krafft, g.) Mr. Edmund Pickelmann. h.) A typical scene during a board meeting. a. Keeping the schools functioning properly occupies the time of superintendent Jerold McEwen. b. Mr. Gibson seems pleased with his work as he smiles for the camera. c. Louie Weiss, assistant principal, pauses amid his busy schedule. The Administration Builds a strong foundation for the school system. Together they make the decisions which affect the school, its teachers, and its students. Frankenmuth’s administra- tors have done an excellent job in the past and will continue to do their best. This has been one of Frank- enmuth High’s finest assets. Daniel Gibson, principal, is new to our administrative team this year. After earning his master’s degree from Central Michigan University, he taught speech and history, and also coached athletics for the school in Harbor Beach. He occupies his spare time with read- ing, drama, and goes to various athletic events. Keeping the Files in order is not always an easy job. It demands many hours of work and concentration. However, this is not all that Mrs. Zehnder, Mrs. Mason, and Mrs. Pringle do. Their work requires many skills. Franken- muth High is fortunate to employ such capable sec- retaries. a. Phyllis Mason, secretary for Mr. Gibson, is kept busy. b. Personal secretary to the assistant principal is Ruth Zehnder. c. Vivian Pringle makes sure all the work is completed in the guidance office. = Lunch Time was much less hectic this year. The opening of the new kitchen and cafeterial facilities, the introduction of the successful a la carte line, the vending machines, and the increase of employees all helped to make lunchtime more enjoyable. Although underclassmen still seem to dominate the end of the lines, at least the lines are shorter! Returning to two half-hour lunch periods are c. head cook, Hildegard Maurer, d. Christine Rummel, e. Leona Weber, Helen Block, and Ellen Wescoat. The cooks have more to do this year keeping the very popu- lar a la carte line moving along swiftly. Part of its success may be attributed to the cashiers, a. Delores Dietzel and b. Betty Nettleton. Guidance Counseling is not an easy job. Much of the time, patience and understanding are a part of each decision that is made. Although counseling of seniors constitutes a great percentage of their job, it is not their only func- tion. They spend much of their time setting up and rearranging student class schedules, and leave their offices periodically to administer tests to a variety of students. Yet the counselors are always there when a problem arises. The counseling staff at Franl:enmuth High consists of Coach “Budd” Tompkins and Mrs. Joy Atkins. a. Seeking Coach’s assis- tance is Shelly Kincade. b. Mrs. Atkins re- views Lori Demers’ schedule with her. c. Peeking inside the guidance door, we see Laura Bierlein and Cindy Coupar busy at work like good little assistants. d. Coach Tompkins is explaining instructions of one of the many tests administered annually. 51 Behind the Scenes but not to go unnoticed are the bus drivers and cus- todians. When transportation was needed for an ath- letic or theatrical excursion, there was always a bus waiting at the exit. And not too often was there a major problem that went unrepaired when the main- tenance department was involved. From the students at F.H.S. goes deep appreciation to the transportation and custodial departments. a. An everyday scene is captured here as c Mrs. Keinath washes a window pane. She is always kept busy with fingerprinted win- dows as there are more where that one came from. b. On F.H.S.’s custodial staff are Har- old Hildner, Bob Schoenknecht, Arno Fisch- er, Viola Krauseneck, and Verna Keinath. Missing is Mel Trinklein, head custodian. c. Pictured at right is just a part of the bus driving staff. Bob Jacobs, upper left, was this year’s transportation director. Remember how Mom and Dad often remind us—the students of today—how difficult school was in “their day”? A teacher was revered and far-removed from his pupils, and viewed only as a figure of authority and great wisdom. Mom and Dad remember their teachers with great respect and perhaps apprehension. We are told that we have it easy now, that teachers are lenient. But what has really changed? Certainly, in most of this generation’s classrooms, the instruc- tor-pupil relationship is one of friendliness and co- operation; the atmosphere is pleasant and relaxed. Each student has his favorite teacher with whom he can candidly discuss personal problems and philoso- phy if he wishes. Because of this, the instructors of F.H.S. will always be remembered with that same respect of yesteryear, but also with immeasurable fondness. They too will leave their footprints “upon the silent shore of memory”. such as Tri-Community classes, special education, and the instructional materials center, are utilizing their new facilities. Two Tri-C sections are housed here at EHS while others are at Birch Run and Bridgeport. a. Mrs. Margaret McCabe, who teaches the Tri-C health occupations class, assists Bev Schiefer and Julie Geyer in taking Bev's blood pressure. b. Mrs. Judith Maier, the librarian, catches up on keeping the vertical file up-to-date. She also has her hands full keeping order in the LM.C., as it is one of the school's most popular places to “socia- lize . c. Mrs. Pamela Flemming's special education students meet in what used to be the chemistry room. It has been remodelled to create a very pleasant atmosphere. d. Mrs. Mary Lou Zehnder, who used to teach home economics at F.H.S., is back instruct- ing the Tri-C child care students. Their facilities, which include exciting playthings for tots, are housed in two old classrooms. Unique Departments a. Mr. Thomas Bucholz teaches basic design, small engine, auto reconditioning, and weld- ing classes. b. Mrs. Patricia Huffer, the in- structor in the home economics department second semester, teaches bachelor living, food and family, family ecology, and com- prehensive home economy. c. Mr. Warren Naber teaches drafting classes, mechanical drawing, and architectural drafting. d. Mrs. Sandy Piesko taught bachelor living, fashion sewing, teen living, and comprehensive home economics first semester. Girls’ and Guys’ classes in the past have been clearly distinguished. However, this year the guys learned how to sew in buttons and cook, while more girls learned the art of drafting and repairing a car. Another change took place after the first semester when Mrs. Piesko was granted a leave of absence and Mrs. Huffer filled the vacancy in the home economics department. Physical Science classes have easily put to use the new facilities avail- able to them. The students have shown an increasing interest in this field, realizing the satisfaction they re- ceive in understanding their environment. This depart- ment includes introductory classes for science and biol- ogy, along with its advanced courses, namely physics and chemistry. a. Mrs. Pam Bannick spends her day teach- d ing introductory science and introductory biology classes. b. Mr. Charles Lyon teach- es introductory and advanced biology. c. Mr. Gary Bruns keeps busy instructing physics, introductory and earth science, and basic electricity. d. Mr. David Swetich teaches chemistry, practical math, and AI- gebra I. | 56 a. Miss Mary Fitzgerald teaches world his- tory, survey of literary forms, and a Wild West class. b. Mr. Ric Ruhl is kept busy with American survival classes, emergence of modern America, Civil War, and wild West classes. c. Mr. Thomas Flemming teaches government and individual in so- ciety courses. d. Mr. Don Gregory spends his day teaching psychology, sociology, a Michagan history, and individual in society. a Social Science classes discuss historical, present, and future situations of the world. This department includes government, psychology, sociology, and various history classes. a. Mrs. JoAnn Szybala questions one of her two French classes. She also teaches various literature courses. b. Mrs. Jeanette Ruhl tries to keep a straight face during one of her many business classes. c. Mr. Marco Mar- cet double-checks the basketball roster for the upcoming game, as he is athletic direc- tor. In addition, he teaches shorthand, typ- ing, and bookkeeping. d. Subordinate con- junctions are the topic for the day in Mr. Weber’s five German classes. e. Mr. Charles Bartel lends his wisdom to a student in his general business class. He also teaches business law and typing. Future Secretaries, managers, and lawyers practiced improving their skills of typing, bookkeeping, and note taking, while many students enriched their understanding of customs of France and Germany in foreign language classes. a. Mrs. Penny Pelzer joins in the fun with one of her five physical education classes. b. Mr. Warren Wilson questions a student in one of his Algebra II classes. He also teach- es geometry. c. Sitting this one out, Mr. Art Pelzer rests while his bo ys’ physical educa- tion class continues. d. Mr. Byron Charters spends his day teaching Algebra I and ad- vanced math. e. Mrs. Sharon Smith helps a student in one of her discovery and practice classes. She also teaches technical algebra and geometry. Physically Fit Bodies are stressed in physical education classes. To accom- plish this, exercises, gymnastics, and ballgames are practiced each day. Math students explored every angle of the mathematical scale to come up with the correct answers to the problems placed before them. English Courses help the students better their skills of reading and writing, and broaden their knowledge of various styles of world literature. a. Mr. Erik Swanson teaches college com- position, Composition II, modern America, Nobel Prize Authors, advanced reading tech- niques, and literature of minority groups. b. Mr. John Kiley reads papers from his practical writing, writing skills, developing reading skills, living English, survey of lit- erary forms, and ancient literature classes. c. Miss Kathy Hughes teaches writing skills, literary explorations, modern American literature, living English, and contemporary reading. d. Mr. Art Loesel teaches Compo- sition I, practical writing, American heri- tage, contemporary reading, and literary ex- plorations. Among the Lighter classes are art, music, and speech. They help the stu- dents to develop their special talents and interests. a. Mr. Gerald Hennessy teaches speech, children’s theater, forensics, and radio and TV broadcasting. b. Mrs. Yvonne Sturgis directs the Swing Choir. c. Mr. Al Maciag keeps busy teaching Art I and Art II. d. Mr. James VanDevelde directs the senior and freshman bands. 61 62 a. ... When we got to take those exciting President's Physical Fitness tests? b... ; those last few minutes of sixth hour with Mr. Swanson? c. . . . when Mr. Hennessy entertained us with his versatile voice? d. ... When you got into those “deep intel- lectual conversations” with Mr. Bucholz? From 8:30 in the morning until 3:10 in the afternoon, each student can be found somewhere in the school building. The ways this time can be spent range from writing note cards for a research paper to sleeping in class. But for a majority of the students, these seven hours are not the end of the day, and the outlets are as many and varied as during the school day. Be it athletics or debate, band or the Ski Club, the enjoy- ment and personal satisfaction are treasured by many. For some, one hour’s involvement in an extracurric- ular activity is more valuable than the seven hours of education which precede it. It is to these people that the following pages are dedicated. Student Involvement with the administrators is important to each student at FHS. Representing all of us is the Student Council. One of their largest campaigns this year was to put a student representative on the school board, and with a little more work they feel it can be accomplished in the near future. Student Council also sponsored a dance and the muscular dystrophy drive this year. a. Replacing the outgoing officers are Ken Holmes-—vice-pres., Cherie Veitengruber— sec., Debbie Trinklein-treas., and Jim Barger —pres. b. Jim contemplates a new proposal. c. It seems John Bierlein, the outgoing presi- dent, isn't so sure about his successor. d. 1973-1974 Student Council members are Seniors R. Smith, G. Trinklein, E. List, F. Malott, A. Eichhorn, B.

Charles Schultz’s “lovable, ir- resistible, and totally unpredictable brainchildren” were brought to life by F.H.S. students as the major production of 1973-1974. This was perhaps among the most successful productions ever, as it was enjoy- ed by more than 2000 people of all ages. ““You’re a Good Man” is the most widely-used play among high schools this year, and all who saw the EHS perfor- mance will agree that they were top-notch. Chief director was Gerald Hennessy and his assistant was Mary Fitzgerald. Student directors were Linda Metzger and Alex Duff. Musicians were Nancy Wenz- loff and Sue Zehnder, pianists; Rosemary Allen, Flou- tist; and Dave Stenglein, percussionist. Mr. Bucholz and members of his classes constructed the abstract set. You're a Good Man” was sponsored by the se- nior class. 73 TIN Rn U de $i ae e? VE E ER ai ae r am اک | | | |[ |[ | | | لے ات‎ arnar 8 يدتنم کے کے‎ Tab 2% Suse kr . “To Burn a Witch”, by James L.

The play was centered around the time of the witch trials in Salem, Massachusetts. Being entered into the One-act Play Competition, it took first place in districts, second place in regionals, and then saw its way to state finals.

The real pleasure of drama is never so evident as when the cast and crew receive letters from children who viewed the produc- tion. The letters expressed wht the Touring Children's Theatre is all about. As one young person put it, “Your play was so good that it made me think that when I was going out I wished I was just going in.

Under the coaching of Mr. Hennessy, all of a possible 16 F.H.S. participants in the districts made it to regional competi- tion, three of whom qualified for state finals. It was in- deed a successful forensics season for F.H.S.! The Competitive Spirit brought a challenge to many students this year who participated in the euchre and pool tournaments.

Because they have perhaps the largest expense account of all the clubs at FHS, they sponsored a dance in the fall to help finance their new edition. The annual advertising drive and yearbook sales were of course on the list of their events also. The staff would like to thank the Frankenmuth News and Rummel Studios, Inc. for supplying pictures, and Willem Sellenraad for helping out when needed. Also, special thanks to Mark Nuechterlein for designing our cover, and to Beth Temple for the title page design. Without the help and encouragement of our salesman, Mr. Eric Gruesbeck of Inter-Collegiate Press, this volume would not have been possible. Last but not least, our very deepest appreciation goes to our ad- visor, Mr. Arthur Loesel, for his helpful attitude and never-ending patience and concern. a.

Another Year of hard work and fun has ended for the cheerleaders of F.H.S. This year has been a very rewarding year which began with the win of a third place trophy from Camps All-American during the summer. Scat- tered throughout the year were various competitions in which the cheerleaders participated. At these, the varsity squad earned a first place trophy at North- wood Institute, a second place trophy at Kingston, and also at the state level they took a second place in our district. The junior varsity squad also won ribbons at Camps All-American, and to round out their year, they took a first place in the J.V. division at Northwood.

Cheryl Olgaard, Kathy Bender, and Renee Pringle were the three se- nior nominees for Homecoming Queen for this year’s event. At half time of the football game against Sandusky, the tension was released as Kathy was an- nounced 1974 Homecoming Queen. Also in the string of events was a parade down Main Street preceding the game. Beth Temple and Kathy Bender were co-chairmen of all homecoining activi- ties, and everything came off smoothly. $ 3 2 a.

Starting out the season as a running quarterback and fullback club, the Eagles lost their first three games. Switching to an offense dominated by the pass, the determined gridders came back to win five of their last six ball games, the one loss going to Caro when they scored late in the fourth quarter. The transition was so suc- cessful that eleven passing records were broken. Equally potent was the Muth defense, led by Willy Rummel, Rod Weiss, and Jim Schiefer in amount of tackles. This year’s squad was led by co-captains Bob Rummel mel and Willy Rummel. Receiving the MVP award was defensive end, Jim Schiefer. The Eagles placed two players on the All-Conference team. Earning hon- ors for first team were Mike Walker, offensive end, and Jim Schiefer. The list of proud Muth gridders making honorable mention on offense were John Metzger and Jeff Reinbold, junior guards; Dave VonBehren, sophomore quarterback; and Steve Wilkinson, junior back. Eagles on the honorable mention defensive team were Mike Webb, senior end; Rod Weiss, senior interior lineman; Willy Rummel and Kurt Eischer, se- nior linebackers; Bob Rummel, senior back, and Ron Schreiner, junior back. For next year, the outlook is promising with the loss of only twelve seniors, and the return of twenty-four lettermen. The 1973 varsity team consists of, Front D. Rushford, J. Metzger, J.

This year’s group of thinclads was led by a very tal- ented and dedicated group of seniors who will be missed next year as Coach Pelzer will try to better this year’s outstanding performance. 101 1974 Medal Winners JIM SCHIEFER (11) St. Louis Relays: 4th—Sprint Medley; 5th—Middle Distance C.M.U.: 3rd—2 mile Relay Birch Run Invitational: 2nd—880; 4th—440; 4th—Mile Relay Conference: 15-880: 3rd—Mile Relay; 4th—440 Regionals: 4th—880 Meet of Champions: 2nd—880 BARRY BARANOWSKI (11) St. Louis Relays: 4th—Spring Medley; 6th—St. Louis Relay Birch Run Invitational: 15-11: 1st—440 Relay Conference: 1st—100; 1st—220; 1st—440 Relay Regionals: 2nd—880 Relay; 3rd—100 Meet of Champions: 2nd—100; 2nd—220 FRANK MALOTT (9) St. Louis Relays: 3rd—Long Jump Birch Run Invitational: 1st High Jump; 4th—Pole Vault C.M.U.: 2nd—High Jump Conference: Ist-High Jump; 2nd—Pole Vault Regionals: 1st—High Jump Meet of Champions:1st—High Jump State Meet: 2nd—High Jump AL NUECHTERLEIN (8) St. Louis Relays: 3rd—Long Jump; 6th—St. Louis Relay Birch Run Invitational: 2nd Long Jump; 1st—440 Relay Conference: 2nd—Long Jump; 1st—440 Relay; 4th —880 Relay Regionals: 2nd—880 Relay TOM VEITENGRUBER (8) St. Louis Relays: 4th—Sprint Medley; Sth—-Middle Distance C.M.U.: 3rd—2 mile Relay Birch Run Invitational: 2nd—Mile; 4th—Mile Relay Conference: 2nd—880; 3rd—Mile Relay Meet of Champions: 2nd—Mile MATT SCHMITZER (8) St. Louis Relays: 4th—Shuttle Hurdles Birch Run Invitational: 2nd—High Hurdles; 3rd—Low Hurdles Conference: 2nd—Low Hurdles; 4th—High Hurdles Regionals: 2nd—880 Relay; 5th—Low Hurdles Meet of Champions: 2nd—Low Hurdles DAN WEBER (7) St. Louis Relays: 4th—Sprint Medley; 6th—St. Louis Relay Birch Run Invitational: 15-220: 2nd—440 Conference: 2nd—440; 6th—220 Regionals: 2nd—880 Relay JIM ALLARDYCE (5) St. Louis Relays: 4th -Shuttle Hurdles Birch Run Invitational: 1st—440 Relay; 4th—Low Hurdles Conference: 4th—Low Hurdles; 4th—880 Relay TOM WHITTLE (4) St. Louis Relays: 5th—Middle Distance C.M.U.: 3rd—2 Mile Relay Birch Run Invitational: 4th—Mile Relay Conference: 3rd—Mile Relay JEFF REINBOLD (4) C.M.U.: 2nd—Shot Put Birch Run Invitational: 1st—Shot Put Conference: 2nd—Shot Put Regionals: 2nd—Shot Put KEN HOLMES (4) St. Louis Relays: 5th—Middle Distance C.M.U.: 3rd—2 Mile Relay Birch Run Invitational: 4th—Mile Relay Conference: 5th—Mile JOHN BASSETT (4) St. Louis Relays: 6th—St. Louis Relay Birch Run Invitational: 4th—100 Conference: 3rd—Mile Relay; 4th—880 Relay DAVE BENDER (3) St. Louis Relays: 4th—Shuttle Hurdles Birch Run Invitational: 4th —High Hurdles Conference: 6th—High Hurdles BILL PARLBERG (3) St. Louis Relays: 3rd—Long Jump Conference: 1st—Long Jump; 1st—440 Relay RON SCHREINER (2) St. Louis Relays: 4th -Shuttle Hurdles Birch Run Invitational: 5th—Low Hurdles MIKE AUERNHAMMER (2) Birch Run Invitational: Sth--Long Jump Conference: 6th—Long Jump KURT EISCHER (1) Conference: 3rd—High Hurdles PAUL STENGLEIN (1) Conference: 156-440 Relay Intramurals a.

Headed by Mr. Ruhl and Mr. Loesel, this year’s pro- gram included bowling, volleyball, and basketball. The intramural program, which was enjoyed by all who were involved, allows students to let off steam who otherwise couldn’t compete because of jobs or the hours of practice required by a varsity sport. Eagle Stickmen gained valuable experience this year. With only five seniors to work with, Coach Ric Ruhl sometimes fielded seven juniors during a game. With this return- ing group of juniors, Coach Ruhl is optimistic about next year’s campaign.

What was the “Jolly Jamboree” last year was again the Krazy Karnival as in years past. The juniors did a fine job with the annual event and most of their pro- ceeds went toward paying bills for the Junior-Senior Prom. Co-chairmen for the project were Carol Engerer and | Carol Bernthal; they also got a great deal of help from | their classmates. The usual games, refreshments, and | amusements were on hand for all to enjoy but as usual, the late-night raffle was the greatest attention- | | getter. a dnm wm a. Carol Engerer shows Lori Geyer how to set up the stereo she won as second place winner. Mark List curiously looks on. b. An overview of the crowd shows all the anxious people during the raffle. c.

Little does he know, however, that his five dollars does not guarantee him his copy. Only members of the yearbook staff realize that it takes more funds than the price a student pays. An edition such as this could not be possible without the finan- cial backing from community business persons and contributors. The success of the publication depends on these people, and the yearbook staff is deeply ap- preciative of their help. It is with this thought in mind that their names have been printed on the fol- lowing pages. Thank-you, contributors.
