 (Cey notes EvtuAb IMkS DIVERSfTV MARKS SPORTS BILL LETTERMEN CLUB'S emblems posed a prickly problem to athletes, Tom Ylvisaker and Clint Ewald. As spring rolled into Valley High, Vikings found a discus thrower in trackman Skip Hall. Hall disrupted Lake Conference superiority in District 18 with discus and shot put championships, took the Region discus title, and finished fourth in the state. Meanwhile, the rest of the squad raced to a solid second place finish in the MVC. FOOTBALL championship resulted in a clean-up of the Conference and Coach Benepe. The victory bath followed a hero's carry from the field. 13

QUEENLY REACTIONS, displayed Peg Lindberg fashion, took effect after her announcement as Homecoming Queen at the October 5 pep fest. A congratulatory hug was offered by Cathie Finch. VIKING WRESTLERS, Jon Lang and Brian Croteau, meet U of M grappling coach Wally Johnson at the fifth Athletic Banquet. Jon won the Conference 95 pound title. While sports fans around the state followed the fortunes of the Minnesota football Vikings, people in the valley found that another band of Vikings, Golden Valley style, were making a strong bid for the MVC pennant. At about the same time the Minnesota Gophers accepted an invitation to play in the Rose Bowl, Tom Benepe's GV team cinched a tie for the league title with a 30-0 victory over Waconia. Meanwhile, back at the Bowl, the Gophers bombed UCLA 2-3. Valley senior Jay Martin trekked to Steamboat Springs, Colorado, and soared to the National Junior Ski-Jumping Championship with leaps of 179 and 181 feet. GV wrestlers jelled in the Conference meet for a hard-earned championship. Whitey Johnson's bucketmen rolled to second in the MVC— highest finish in school's annals. While the United States figure skating team made a comeback in Poland after last year's disastrous plane crash, the pride of Golden Valley rinks, Sophomore John Kulenkamp, placed fourth in the Regional figure-skating championships in Denver. Rookie Rich Rollins and Bernie Allen sparked the Minnesota baseball Twins to the rarified atmosphere of the American League's first division in early season, while Valley's baseball team made a dash for the crown and fell one game short. As the Twins had Camilc Pas-cual, the Valley Vikings had Rick Carlson. The senior righthander posted the top earned run average in the League, winning seven of eight games. 12
