One Of The Best Yet! Another year goes passing by, another Prom is here. To some this brings a joyous smile, to others, brings a tear. For four long years you've tread a path, from dawn to setting sun. But now the path gets steeper, and the climb is just begun. We're very glad to know you, we'll miss you when you've gone. And to the Class of '71, we dedicate this Prom. The Juniors RIGHT: Mrs. Wayne Hjulberg captures the beauty of her daughters Laurie and Julie with their escorts Jim Hoffman and Eduardo Gonzalez.

Tigers! The 1970 Tiger football players were after something from the first day of practice to the last r cond of the last game. They put out more than 100 percent and wound up with the Wocohami Conference Co-Champ- ionship with Wood Lake. The squad’s determination and lust for victory carried them through tough grueling practices with the hot Fall days and the blinding storms against them. The Tigers sharpened their claws and tore the field up getting ready for the most exciting season in the history of the school. The mighty team opened up the season against Hendricks and nudged them by a score of 12 to 6. The following game with Winthrop promised to be close right down to the wire, but the team went to the air and a last second thrust by quarterback Kirk Jensen pushed Franklin to a 20 to 14 victory. The only loss of the season came when Franklin was kept from making a two-point conversion twice, and lost 16 to 12 to Balaton in a non-conference game, at Balaton. The team and coaches thought it was a very successful season finish- ing with a 7-1 record. This year, the Tigers were well represented by Mark Machtemes, Duane Sander, and David Dickmeyer on the All-Conf- erence offensive team and Jeff Bethke, Blair Anderson, and Jim Dingels on the All-conference defensive team. The Tigers were led by twelve spirited seniors who wanted to win big and that's just what they did. Congratulations on a very fine season. Tigers!
