Lines 4 LINES ARE SOMETIMES CURVED and in this case a circular stepping line backers. The football squad warms up for an human obstacle course poses a tricky problem for light- early autumn practice session with a running exercise. Combine,FormEntireSchool Picture A line takes many shapes, many forms. To a Kindergartener, a grotesque combination of lines can be a beautiful picture. As he learns to write his name he discovers that different letters when placed in proper sequence can spell Teri, cr Paul, or Skip. Time passes quickly in educational advancement, and as it does, words develop into 2500-word papers. There are other kinds of lines, too. One must stand in line to get his lunch, unless of course, he is a Senior. Line drives in football, the front line of forwards in basketball, and the starting line-up in baseball are all important terms to sports-minded of the rank-and-file Vikings. Valley Viewer and Viking advertising salesmen could hardly wait to persuade advertisers to sign on the dotted line. Four hundred fifty five Vikings left marks in many places and in many ways. This book will record those marks; and when memories grow dim the lines will still show brightly on these pages. ADVICE is sought about his solar-powered radio by John Kulenkamp from Instructor the late Wayne Neustrom, at a Saturday morning Science Seminar. 6 INTENT ON THE GAME, Golden Valley basketball spectators saw our team through to a rousing defeat of St. Anthony. Assembly Line Products Not Goal NONCOMMITTALLY, John Whitfield (Pete Myhre) listens to Defense Attorney Stevens (Gregg Parmelee) pour forth his tirade. Whether it was completing an analysis for chemistry, whether it was runing the low hurdles in a track meet, or whether it was operating the lights for a class play, each Viking pursued his own line of interest. These were individual lines, but, like railroad tracks seen in the distance, the end points came together. All purposeful endeavors culminated in a common goal—completing a worthwhile education. Academics, as they should be, are emphasized. But GV was not aiming for assembly line production of squares or complete carbon paper copies of each preceding student. Rather, the goal was to prepare an educated, well-rounded person for whatever field one would seek after graduation, be it housewife or nuclear scientist or teacher. A solid measure of studies to which is added just the right amount of extracurricular functions produced the prize-winning recipe for a well-informed, well-adjusted individual. 7 All Find Niche, Some Rewarded REPRESENTATIVE of Golden Valley, Mike Murphy and Kathie Mikucki, Boys' and Girls' State delegates will take part in mock government in St. Paul.

A school building is just a shell without students lining it. A school is no more, and no less, than its occupants. Vikings characterized Golden Valley in all they did. Studious Valleyites exemplified academic leanings of GV. Fun-lovers enjoyed special events. Leaders headed committees, presided over club meetings, guided publications. Athletes put prowess to work by joining a team. Doers made the core of all activities. Each of the 455 Vikings, though, found some niche, some place in which he exhibited a special talent. Some displayed more talents than others. A few received special recognition for a special ability. But no matter how many talents a Valley student possessed he was part of a school—a school that became a living operation because of his participation in its being. A DAILY RITUAL is performed by DAR award winner Leslie Mitchell in her capacity as Student Council member. 9 THE DRAGON OF WENTZ' a flair for the dramatic. The The proved an outlet for artists with the Magenta Cloud and the wonderful Gizzard of Pod for a lien who lost his mane comes to new mane procured with a scale from the Dragon of Wentz. Play Was the Thing” TEACHING METHODS are explained by Mrs. Ella Lindberg, Junior High Math instructor, to Dick Ross. Dick is a member of the FTA group of students who were given a chance for a classroom teaching experience. 10 THE HEARTBEAT OF A TURTLE makes only a fainf impulse difficult to record with the electrocardiograph used by Pete Myhre in his project work during the Saturday morning Science Seminar. The Tyrone Guthrie Theater opened its doors to the theatergoing public this spring, but who's to persuade proud parents that Hume Cronyn is better than their son, the defense attorney in The Night of January Sixteenth, or a member of the Conga line in My Sister Eileen? The play was the thing, and Senior High English students traveled in busloads to see Hamlet, with Mr. Cronyn and his wife, Jessica Tandy, now Golden Valley residents. Plays weren't the only thing, as Wayne Neustrom initiated a Science Seminar on Saturday mornings in the lab. Interested students worked on projects ranging from building a rocket to measuring the heart impulses of frogs, during the two-and-a-half hours. Death struck Golden Valley and saddened all Valleyites who had had any contact with Chemistry and Physics Instructor Neu- strom, who died at the age of 35 from a heart attack. Mr. Neustrom is remembered by students and associates alike for his brilliant mind and love for teaching and those being taught. Teaching presented itself as an interesting career to about thirty students, members of the FTA, who were given a chance to present lessons to their peers, or just observe teaching techniques in the grade school. 11 OLD ALUMNI never die, they just return for Homecoming. '62 graduates Gail Skyberg and Jerry Boschee are served punch by Cheryl Lesch and Jean DeVilliers. Middle School BUDDING LEAVES trace an intricate scrollwork pattern in front of school doors on an early spring day. Excellence is not measured with lines of a ruler. But plays at Golden Valley were good enough not only to attract parents, but members of the community. The annual Art, Shop and Home Ec Show brought notice from educators of surrounding schools. Musicians and choristers earned B plus and B ratings, respectively, in Conference competition. The epitome of excellence in education, though, can never be reached. Always, cooperation between community and school must work to improve learning, methods, and plants. The Middle School, bringing a 4-4-4 grade plan to Golden Valley, nears completion. With it will come another mark on the line of GV educational progress. But advancement won't stop with it. Gains will continue as long as there are students who will pursue a growing knowledge of all. 12 BACTERIA cultures are examined by Marcia Volkenant in connection with Science Seminar project. Not End of Educational Advances CORRIDOR CONGREGATIONS VIBRANT with team spirit, Lynn Beliak and Beth Schiefelbein lead were commonplace before school. a Homecoming crowd in cheering our team on to victory. 13 14 THE WAY to an Honor Roller's stomach seemed to be through his report card as the academic giants filled the cafetorium for the NHS ice cream social and consumed nine gallons of ice cream. In an attempt to promote scholarship, the NHS also sponsored a cookie social and a hot dog dinner. WITH PENCIL IN HAND, Bill Adolfson settles down to do some serious writing. Library space and time became valuable assets as students shelled out money for reams of paper and scores of pencils which disappeared under a grueling strain. 16 Academic Lines Unite Valleyites The word academics, formalized into unwieldliness by tradition, tends to run many Viking events into one blot of activity. Caught without the imposing label, students and faculty bustled through a blank year, each creating his own mark and each leaving a labyrinth of lines for others to follow and explore. Courses grew with the student, and class members saw new ideas and methods strengthening old, well laid foundations. Students met the challenge of progress and disciplined themselves into studiousness. Libraries were a necessity as students attacked book lined shelves and demand exceeded supply, setting midnight oil at a premium. Faculty members, clinging to a line of responsibility, were drawn out of the classroom and into a web of organization. Skilled, knowing advisers guided club plans into successes. Parties, dances, initiations, and service were welcome diversions and broke up the routine of assignments and deadlines. Hidden by the mechanics of teaching and being taught, an efficient administration directed and co-ordinated converging lines until they formed GVHS. THE SHAKOPEE BAND IS LOST! Mrs. Armi Nelson reports Band Contest. GV faculty members used their time not only to Mrs. Bernette Engquist and Miss Patricia Neill at the MVC to teach but to supervise many extra activities. 17 Administrators Build New School, WITH AN EYE ON THE FUTURE, Superintendent Dr. Elmer Kane and Principal Dewey Breisch inspect the new middle school's library. DRIVING home a point. Dr. Kane strikes a familiar pose. His poise at the podium complemented his material throughout the year. DIGGING through his files. Counselor Frank Farrell checks on student progress. Mr. Farrell's files contain records of students' grades, test results, personality ratings, and any other records pertinent to school affairs. 18 Scholars Helping students to remove their rose-colored glasses was the aim of the administration. Dr. Elmer R. Kane, Superintendent, and Dewey R. Breisch, Principal, worked to help students adjust to the cruel hard world. Carrying out the policies established by the school board was a key part of Dr. Kane's position as Superintendent. While keeping an eye on the construction of the new Middle School, he was also in charge of co-ordinating the activities of both high school and the grade school. In spite of his busy schedule, Dr. Kane found time to write a book and head the Minneapolis Area School Council. Taking charge of all the extracurricular activities and academic studies. Principal Breisch made sure that they functioned for the benefit of the entire student body. Checking for stray pencil marks in the mazes of IBM analyzed answer sheets was an insignificant but necessary duty faced by Counselor Frank Farrell. Aptitude, achievement, interest and personality tests helped students in filling out college applications and schedules. This very significant phase of Mr. Farrell's work brought him into contact with each of the school's four hundred and fifty scholars. In spite of his title, Mr. Farrell was not an advice-giver but rather a discussion leader, probing for the pros and cons in the ideas presented to him by the searching student mind. His many facets led him into the classroom, where he taught an Eighth Grade Guidance class. Through this class, he attempted to show students the importance of high grades in high school for college admittance and job applications. Mr. Farrell readily gave out information on colleges, scholarships and job opportunities. ANOTHER DAY starts for Dewey Breisch as he pauses to greet students in the foyer. Despite a demanding schedule he was head of the Minnesota Valley Conference Administrators' Association and president of GV Optimists' Club. 19 FACULTY—Front Row: Harold Flolid, Roger Johnson, Thomas Benepe, Walter Kimble, Leland Gillogly, Lyle Berg, Roman Borgerding, David Baker, William Anderson, Clyde Rust, Jerome Holewa, Homer Moeller.

Bulletin Boards, Flags, Meetings MATHEMATICALLY, twenty-eight divided by fourteen times fifty-lwo is one hundred four, but when fifty-two is people, twenty-eight, hours, and fourteen, a number of meetings, the results are solutions to prevalent professional problems as Meadowbrook and Golden Valley faculties met jointly. FRESHMEN: READ THIS commanded the blinding orange letters on the dark purple back-ground. Closer examination showed that this bulletin board was not a propaganda device for some school function but one of the monthly messages from the National Honor Society. Working in pairs, the society members put up colorful and eye-catching boards to announce up-coming Society-sponsored social and academic events. Nine names were added to the plaque as the Society plunged into their fifth year of bulletin boarding and party throwing. The traditional ice cream and cookie socials were held after the first and third quarters. 140 hotdogs, 25,397 baked beans, and 70 bottles of milk made up the menu for the Honor Society sock-hop held after the second semester break. Seven-thirty found the Student Council conscious, assembled, and voting. Contrary to the popular image of politics, promises such as a flag in every classroom and an ice cream bar in every mouth proved to be more than empty words.

Constitute Dawn to Dusk Days ty requisitions were a continual order of business as the Council effectively directed school activities throughout the year. The Senior Joy Boys stole the show and the Skit Award as they again enraptured hundreds at a pep fest with their cheerleading renditions of old favorites like Oski Waw Waw. Trollhaugen's slopes saw Sno-Day and the regular return of Vikings to the world of gentle snow and broken skis. The event featured an early morning hot chocolate breakfast and the polite refusal of chaperones to wear the painstakingly prepared Ski Patrol bibs. An innovation was provided by crack of dawn yawns one Tuesday, when four hearty souls ventured into the fog for a day at Orono, courtesy of their Student Council. A similar trek to U-High was organized, and both schools responded by returning the visits. The call of the outdoors seemed to be the rage, for neither sleet nor snow, hail nor rain could keep Council flag raisers from hoisting Old Glory at morning's break.

CERTAINLY I'M RIGHT, argues Pete Myhre as he debates with Mr. Roman Borgerding (English Department Chairman; English 10, 11, 12) about a short story. Mr. Borgerding led his classes in open discussion on everything. Contention Highlights Bah! Humbug! Charles Dickens had nothing on Tim Ewald as Tim barrelled into his English paper entitled Humbug. With another of Mr. Borger-ding's dreaded experimental papers due, the Juniors handed in creative and interesting etymologies of words ranging from avenue to phobia. Poems, contemporary writings, and classical works were on the year's agenda for both Seniors and Juniors. Opaque projectors, record players, and movie projectors were all used to help that old standby, the English teacher, in his effort to cover broader subject areas. Following the organization of the English staff into a departmentalized system in 1962-'63, glimpses of things to come were frequently seen. Faculty members brought back current information after convention trips to such places as Miami and Louisville. This information was then applied to GV classrooms. Early in the spring, the library book shelves were supplemented by the addition of a paperback book store. Without having to worry about paying library fines, students bought and read books other than those which were required for class reading. The use of a tape recorder allowed class members to present interpretive readings from To Kill A Mockingbird and games helped them to gain composure before an audience. 22 DON'T GET NERVOUS, advises Patricia Neill (English; Speech I, II; Senior Choir; Junior Choir) as she helps prepare Roger Hick, Tom Koch, Gerry Nordley, and Dick Peters for the Optimists' Oratorical Contest. English, Speech IS HE SCRATCHING? No, Dick Merwin is acting out We Could Make Beautiful Music Together for a game of charades in speech class. The speech students also added zest to class by playing Password. 23 SPICING up his speech, Gary Visser demonstrates the art of frying a hamburger, but whether it will satisfy his appetite is nor known. DISCOVERING the wonders of Biology, Dick Peters carefully follows precise directions of Mr. Flolid (Science 9, Biology, Wrestling, Baseball, and Science Department Chairman) as he begins to dissect a miserable creature of the deep. WATER OR WHISKEY-which shall it be? is the big question as Chemistry students John Kulenkamp and Vis Videns set up Formaldehyde, Flames and Flying SWINGING INTO PHYSICS with a mighty pull of the hacksaw blade, a transformed Sucret's box is carefully timed by Juan Ferrer and Steve Rosholt. Weights of unknown masses were determined by timings and student-devised formulas. Foiled in an attempt to scale the walls of the school to the roof for the purpose of dropping weights from its highest point, the young Galileos of GV were content to play with Slinkies and to watch the gentle swing of pendulums. Harmonic motion was only one of the many phases of physics studied this year. Einstein's famous formula, E=mc:, was also discussed along with the structure and composition of the atom. Look out! Someone get the fire extinguisher, and Quick, wipe the acid off your hand! were cries often heard in chemistry classes. Through the turmoil and confusion of first experiments, Chemistry students managed to adopt lab procedures which brought them through the year alive, if nothing else. Producing oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide were among many experiments done to prove theories explained in the text. 24 equipment for their distillation. Students performed experiments ranging from glass bending to the preparation of aspirin. SCIENCE CLUB—Fronf Row: J. Miller, Ulstrom, Fisher, Bouley. Row 2: D. Sand, P. Sand, Karlson.

Objects Plague Science Students Biology students soon found that the smell of formaldehyde is not half so bad as the taste it gives at lunch time. Making good use of soap they soon learned to overcome this minor hindrance. The lab tests which followed the work, however, presented a problem which could not be eliminated with soap. Fetal pigs were dissected this year for the first time, and algae was collected from the swamp for examination under the microscope. With attentions focused on the physical sciences, the General Science students studied chemistry, physics, meteorology and the like. To further the study of astronomy, the classes traveled to the Minneapolis Public Library to see the observatory. They also examined crystals, fabrics, and simple cells under the microscope to prepare them for the forthcoming year of Biology. BY THE LIGHT of the silvery bulb, Renee Larson and Joe Miller discover the mysteries of the series circuit. Ohms, watts and amperes became familiar to all General Science students as they learned about electrical energy. 25 USE THIS FORMULA to determine the half life of radium, explains Lyle Berg (Chemistry, Physics, Solid Geometry-Trigonometry, Science Club, Science Seminar). INTEREST earned on the principal is computed by Joy Lund-quist with aid from Instructor Homer Moeller (Business Math, General Math, Algebra I, Math 7) in the Business Math class. Test Jests Breed Math Hysteria An hysterical guffaw followed by a brain-racking test was par for the course as Friday quiz day rolled around to the Geometry and Algebra classes of Robert Lockwood. The traditional math drudgery was relieved by the cartoons on the quizzes and the prognostication of the day. Moving into the third dimension, the nineteen seniors in the Solid-Trig class followed Lyle Berg into the world of solid figures and colored chalk. A new math class appeared on the Golden Valley scene this year —Business Math. This class was designed to give students a background in the principles of consumer mathematics. Guest speakers were invited to give the mathematicians a first hand knowledge of the importance of math in the business world. WITH ENOUGH ROPE to hang himself or one of his students, Mr. Lockwood (Mathematics Department Chairman, Algebra II, Plane Geometry, Football, Baseball) demonstrates a rope trick, a relief from drier classroom routine. 26 Typing Classes Try New Methods Movies three times a week in Typing class was a switch from the traditional asdf-jkl,-eyes-on-the copy routine. The new approach involved a special speed-builder projector which scanned the material shown on a screen at rates that were adjusted from 8 to 108 words a minute. One interesting side advantage of the machine was that it made key watching difficult—short of becoming a Chronic squinting head bobber. At the end of the year, typists' speed varied from 30 to 80 words a minute. Classes took two forms, segregated, unromantic, • freshman classes which met alter- nate days with Physical Education and involved homework, and the daily classes that came without outside assignments. Shorthand honors were won by Junior Marilyn Falkers for 140 plus speeds and by Senior Judy Cummer, for the Northwestern Bank Transcription Trophy. First-year laurels went to Jean DeVil-liers, who attained high accuracy at 100 words a minute. In the Accounting class Instructor Mrs. Armi Nelson admitted to a personal crusade for economic literacy, which resulted in a subject matter ratio of % and Vz in accounting and economics. INVOLVED in a speed test with the panoramic screen are students Paul Prusak and Roger Pilgram. As Mrs. Nelson (Business, Economics, Typing, and Shorthand) flashes sentences on the screen, students type them as quickly as possible. READY, willing, and writing, Marilyn Falkers and Barb Niles enter the Shorthand Class greeted by a stcrm of dictation. Emphasizing the practical, girls learned to be prepared for anything. 27 VIRTUES of Soci.i: See i r ty .Kid lack of same are expounded upon by Mr benepe (Modern Problems. World M story. Science 10. Soc ai Studies Department Chaim ,r Football, ' ■. i r k ). Student Participation Modern Problems loomed ominously as Instructor Tom Benepe darkened Senior horizons with dim prophesies of countless research papers, inevitable panels and the unconquerable hour-long student presentations. Two research papers and nine weeks later students realized the bitter truth. Modern Problems was for real. Attitudes changed and weekly speeches were accepted, presented and survived, while panels served as an interesting diversion. Lectures diminished as a greater emphasis was placed on class discussions. Participation, or the lack of it, was contention's biggest bone as Walter J. Kimble led two sections of Juniors through the mysteries of world history. In the third section, taught by Mr. Benepe, Juniors research-papered through philosophies of Plato, campaigns of Alexander the Great, the birth of the Renais- sance, and other epic events. Lemonade Lucy may have had nothing to do with the winning of the disputed 1876 election but inquiring sophomore scholars didn't dare miss a point in their study of American History. The power of the pen and the weakness of the hand made a great impression on Mr. Kimble's students when test scores rose as high as the quality of notes taken. Constantly on the move, Sophomores found panels, emphasizing history in the making, a necessary addition to classroom material. Dizzied by thoughts of planning even a four year schedule, Freshmen rebelled as Carole Calabresa, Civics teacher, assigned the traditional occupations booklet. Besides committing themselves in black and white to their futures. Freshmen were expected to think, talk and write in preparation for the rigors of Senior High Social Studies. ADDING VIM AND VIGAH to his learned words, Walter Kimble (American and World History, Basketball, Assistant Social Studies Chairman) spices up his students' day by emphasizing a point from his American History lecture. 28 Object of Social Studies Classes COMING OUT ON TOP in a panel debate often depends on accuracy and the facts at hand. John Griffith proves this to HANDFULS of information and a smile from Miss Calabresa (Social Studies 8, 9; Junior Class Play) start students Lee Mitchell and Carol Stenborg off to a successful occupations booklet. fellow panelists Judy Hetland, T. W. Johnson, and Judy Cummer in Mr. Benepe's Senior Modern Problems class. ALTHOUGH history may have a hard time repeating itself, Linda Murray finds it enlightening to discover how her chart vividly recaptures tidbits of Chinese History. 29 FRENCH CLUB—Fronf Row.-Peterson, Thole, J.

Shades of the Bastille clouded November 26 when the French Club initiates discovered that combs were for eating and blindfolded eyes guided very little peanut butter into empty mouths. Severe sentences seemed to be an outrageous price to pay for membership and yet new pins were worn proudly and promi-. nently by the so recently abused. Mountains, monuments, and a mule captured in slides, personalized French culture better than a thousand textbooks during a Know France Better campaign. A tower abstract enough to bring tears to Eiffel's eyes centered French atmosphere at a Tri Language Club party. Palatable petits fours lured unsuspecting Spanish and German scholars over to an informal sidewalk cafe. 30 Spanish Law Enforced by Three Evidence of the effectiveness of the Spanish Club's own law enforcement operation could be seen during the year as the three ser-geants-at-arms functioned perfectly. The three stalwartly maintained peace and tranquility throughout the year at the club meetings. Better understanding of Spanish customs, culture, and language was the object of the club. Officers Jim Peterson, Leslie Mitchell, and Teri Gomsrud worked closely with Adviser Cecelia Johnson to achieve these goals. The sign of the club became the sombrero this year, and the sleepy-time hats became necessary costume apparel for all members. The induction day found new Spanish students scrambling around the school counting tiles in the lavatories, rails in the railings, and performing similar feats. Inductees were forced to give the oath in Spanish as President Jim Peterson lit a candle to signify their entry into the club. THE ALMIGHTY SOMBRERO is honored via a hat dance by the Spanish Club officers.

Dittos Stacked Against Germans Thirty brave souls stammered out the dreaded password, and were officially initiated into the ranks of Der Deutsche Verein. The club was one of Golden Valley's first, and already such events as the Walzabend and the Heidelberg Dinner have become solemn, if not sacred, tradition. Mrs. Wivell's three classes were beset as ever with grammar, translation, and culture. First year pupils experimented with conversations and repetitions. Second year found the students getting their dosage of present perfect subjunctive and adjective endings on the now famous mimeographed sheets. Advanced course third year students divided their time between culture, lectures, extemporaneous conversations, and grammar reviews. German Three held heated discussions on teaching methods and projects. Mrs. Wivell's standard reply? It breaks my heart in two, (auf Deutsch, of course). GERMAN CLUB Front Row.- T. Ewald, Jaffe, M.

Home Economics girls found instructions from the not-too-clear cook book were not always that easy as they advanced from egg-cooking to preparation of a full-course meal and from skirt sewing to tailoring of winter coats. The Home Economics Department was distinguished from the other classrooms by the aromas of delicious foods and the noisy chatter of busy girls with scissors and sewing machines. Home Economics I made hotdishes, rolls, and beds as they learned about home furnishings and management. Glassware and linen were also studied. As the spring rolled in, bolts of fabric rolled out, and the girls sewed summer garments. Moving into the field of home decorations, Home Economics II concentrated on types of homes, furniture, carpeting, and rugs. “Tea for two and two for tea might well have been the motto of Mrs. Erdahl as a new tea service was added to the facilities. Hopes were high that a new dress mannequin might have been added by the end of the year. TRACING through a jungle of directions, Junior Karen Wisti follows a dotted line to a dart.

Silence Shatters Shop Stereotype Silence reigned over the Industrial Arts III class, preserving the peace of the library next door and shattering the stereotype of banging hammers, grinding saws, and whining planers. Young Frank Lloyd Wrights were trying their hands and their minds at home designing and scale model construction. Realizing the need for a more practical and advanced approach to Industrial Arts, Leland Gillogly's Industrial classes employed the basic skills learned in the Junior High and placed emphasis on drafting, contracting, and architectural engineering. Industrial I students acquainted themselves with blueprints, circuit layouts, and machine wood technology. Striving for the goal of the advanced course. Industrial II classes developed skills in pre-engineering drawing and fusion of metals. Experience gained in Industrial Art classes enabled the student to understand and contribute to our technological society. BLUEPRINTS take on a third dimension for Paul Burda while Leland Gillogly (Industrial Arts) checks a measurement with the completed model. Industrial Arts III classes planned, developed, and built their dream homes to scale. 34 Dabblers Swing in Artists’ Jungle But, Mr. Lockwood, how can I think with all that pounding? That pounding was not the rage of 107, or jackhammers in the shop across the hall (which is soundproof), but creativity knocking in the art room above. The Jungle, as outsiders knew it, was the creative center of the school, spewing out everything from Iowa folk songs to lofty stained glass panels. Starting with Seventh Grade papier-mache monster-making, jungle artists graduated to block prints and mosaics, and finally reached the glorious heights of freedom in Art Mil. This, the ultimate goal for all, brought painting (both wax and conventional), foam glass and salt block sculptures, and jewelry polishing. Better known to the other students, however, are the four research papers assigned on topics ranging from Dadaism to Dali. In all, the entire art program developed a well-rounded aesthete with the necessary background needed to become a stockbroker. REVEALING HER SILVER CASTING for the first time, Donna Bruckelmyer receives help from David W. Baker (Art, Viking) in removing the mold. Mr. Baker guided the Senior High Art students to the completion of their many projects. TAKING A PEEK at his block print is Art student Nayyar Kahn. Other projects included work in art metal, flat color, and sculpture.

Banished to a back room in the library, the Viking staff found itself confined yet undaunted as they dedicated themselves to the proposition that a yearbook must be produced. Deadlines were met with a determined barrage of rulers, a scramble for Thesauri, a swing of the picture wheel, and day-lengthening assignments. As goes the Journalism Class, so goes the Valley Viewer and the year found them both functioning out of 201. Printed in black and white, class created copy, captions, and heads appeared as papers. Rome and all her hills had nothing on the staff who marked graduation with the passing of the seventh and last deadline. All competition aside. Valley Viewer and Viking staffs discovered themselves Chicago-bound and turkey-free. Thanksgiving was convention time and NSPA meetings found GV present. Quieted by spring vacation, the U of M proved an excellent location for the spring MHSPA convention which was well attended by publication staffs. Valley Viewer, Viking PRESSING DEADLINES FOUND all hands on the desk as Nancy Moe and Tom McAuliffe drop the business end of the Viking long enough to help Dave Miller fit a flurry of captions and copy on the painfully blank layout. 36 VALLEY VIEWER-Seafed: Dary Sheehy, Sports Editor; Merry Albert, Editorial Page Editor; Jean DeVilliers, Front Page Editor; Bob Shapiro, Kathie Mikucki, Editor,- Stephanie Korney, Feature Page Editor.

Offer Assistance and Information Who arranged those neat rows that made it so easy to find the book you wanted in the library? Why, the librarians, of course, but they had help from the Library Club. Meeting once every two weeks, the 25 seventh and eighth graders helped Mrs. Evelyn Ar-ends, Adviser, with her work besides promoting interest in books. During National Library Week the group read a story to youngsters at Meadowbrook. In the spring they read and discussed a book selected from the new paperback book store and they viewed a movie made from the book. Paul for Pres! shouted the new GV Future Teachers of America when Paul Burda ran for president of the state organization. In its first year of existence, the FTA sent four representatives along with Adviser Mrs. Armi Nelson to the statewide convention at Moorhead State College on March 28 and 29. In the last quarter of the year a tutoring system was set up for students needing assistance in their classes, and members participated in student teaching at both Meadowbrook and the high school. Crisp, pin striped uniforms were an honor to wear and a mark of responsibility as Junior High Red Crossers turned candy stripers and aided in rest home work. Annual projects were brought into reality and a school chest was built, filled, and sent. Adviser Mrs. Ella Lindberg continued to promote the personal in service as members created holiday decorations and timely placements. The South shall rise again and nearly did when the Junior and Senior Red Crosses joined forces to sponsor Slave Day. Competition was hot and cash was cold as buyers bought fellow students. A Christmas turkey and all the trimmings were a noble goal as Senior High Red Cross earned money to finance a festively complete dinner for a needy family. Films are fun but projectors distribution has its disadvantages. Service at a school level was practiced daily by the Audio-Visual Bunch. Experienced in the ways of tape recorders and televisions and hardened to faculty demands, the five boys scheduled another year of audio-visual aids competently and efficiently.

Valley Hosts MVC Band Contest; GRADE-A SOLOISTS Bill Crowder and Paul Burda prepare for the state contest at the University of Minnesota. Suicidal students literally blew their brains out every Monday and Wednesday activity periods in the music room. These students were members of the Senior Band. Members joined William Anderson in sessions of music and horn tuning as part of their regular schedule. Two days of Band contests ranked the band among the most absent of any organization. Members participated in the solos and ensemble contests at Watertown and helped Golden Valley host the annual band contest. Besides allowing students to blow their own horns, the band provided music for various school and community functions. Senior Band members represented students from grades seven through twelve. Members were chosen throughout the year according to their ability. Ni Ni Na Na Noo Noo and oth- er distinctly garbled sounds emanated from the Cafetorium as part of the warm-up exercises for Senior Choir. The ultimate goal of all this was a clearer, more pear-shaped tone for all concerned. Patricia Neill, Choir Director, met with girls in grades nine through twelve twice a week to increase skill and improve their interpretation. The choir varied its program by singing songs ranging from folk tunes to hymns. With much pomp and dignity the choir journeyed to Brookdale during National Education Week. The Choir and a Senior boys' group participated in the Christmas Program, and early in spring the P.T.A. heard their clear notes. On March 26, the seventy member choir brought home a B rating and complete exhaustion from the annual contest, held at Chaska. 40 SENIOR BAND-Row J: Finkelstein, Nelson, Langley. Row 2: J.

Z'l studied during The fnii wS%fH c£5,0°IS Renditions of Gory, Gory, Paratrooper, sung by GV's own David Baker, far from inhibited a creative Junior High as fifteen weeks of Art proved rewarding for both the teacher and the taught. Taunted by rumors that Mr. Baker was one-eighth Patahcochi Indian (a tribe located in lower Iowa near Council Bluffs), Seventh Graders developed a quick charcoal hand and a good eye for water colors. Just as eight follows seven, papier-mache animals followed puppets and a wheat-pasted Eighth Grade produced the annual zoo of individual creations. Boys will be boys and shop will be shop and Leland Gillogly will help it if ever the two should meet. They were, it was, and he did as the Seventh Grade boys were guided through the fundamentals of Industrial Arts. Completed chisels and tie racks were rewards for beginning effort. Ben Franklin's kite tore and he died never knowing the problems the boys faced when they developed and demonstrated electronic motors, bells, and buzzers. A promise of the future and experience of the past saw Eighth Graders experimenting with simple drafting. Other projects involved modern plastics, leather craft, and blueprint reading. Food is to be eaten, not to be cooked, was a Seventh Grade rationalization as the Home Economics Department broke out in a rash of nutrition. Arranging fruit attractively was only the beginning as Mrs. Lorna Erdahl encouraged the girls to cook full breakfasts. Skirts and blouses seemed a much more tangible end as Eighth Graders turned seamstresses. Having studied color and its effects, girls painstakingly chose the fabrics with which they would spend the remaining weeks. Catastrophes were forgotten as garments were finished. THWARTED THREADER Christy Matti-son spits and splits it in an attempt to sew up her Home Economics course. 43 Little Caesars Come, See, Master Caesar aptly quoted the spirit and achievement of Social Studies when he said: I came, I saw, I conquered, and the Junior High students were the greatest little Caesars in the school. Germany, Russia, and other places of interest were toured by way of the textbook in Miss Cala-bresa's Geography class. Mr. Hole-wa added his spice to the pot by taking the Seventh Grade into the world of time-tested jokes and U.S. History. The Seventh Graders spent their time meeting scores of famous explorers and presidents, while their elders filled in workbook blanks. All work and no play was hardly the watchword, however,. and spare time was spent on charts, maps, and oral reports. American History provided a firm basis for later studies while FOLLOWING IN THE FOOTSTEPS of Lewis and Clark, Jerome Holewa (Social Geography tried to make students Studies 7 and 8, Athletic Director, Junior High Basketball) traces the course of more aware of the world, the two famous explorers on the map for Mike Jorgenson.

Assistant De- tween nominative and accusative and how to spell both. Grammar Graduates Begin Anew Grammar school graduates found that they had not really graduated from grammar when they entered English classes of Clyde Rust and Mrs. Lorna Erdahl. The students reviewed what they had learned years ago, and they touched on new ideas and rules which, when tied together with the old, gave them a better understanding of the language. Weekly spelling tests increased vocabularies. The prose and poetry book with a seemingly endless supply of short stories provided topics for discussion and food for thought besides giving students a better grasp of literature. Nine books were an outside reading requirement. Confronted with the problem of telling jokes and short stories, the young scholars later progressed to demonstration speeches, graphically illustrating such things as glass bending and the art of using a camera. THIRTY-FIVE LETTERS don't dismay Susan Ulstrom, school spelling champ, in the least. Determined not to write a wrong, she corrects the technical monstrosity without even contracting writer's cramp. 45 Junior Scientists, Mathematicians Proportions, percentages, area measurements, angles, and different number systems confronted Golden Valley's young Seventh and Eighth grade mathematicians as they added and subtracted their way through another year of math. Under the leadership of Mrs. Ella Lindberg and Homer Moeller, students entered and explored the worlds of more advanced mathematics. Plane figuring and computation was not the only area of study as the Eighth Graders made models of solid figures and did curve stitching or made designs out of string. Also on the year's agenda was the study of cubic measurement and the metric system. Seventh graders concentrated their efforts on gaining a firmer math base by learning and practicing more advanced fundamentals. Toward the end of the year, they, too, moved into the study and discussion of cubic areas. Anxious or not, students start their science education at GV as seventh and eighth graders, taking one semester each year. New methods were initiated as the classes learned along with Mr. Wells on a T. V. program. Such things as what makes a good scientist, living beings, and chemical actions on materials were studied by seventh graders. Eighth graders turned rock hounds in April as they competed against one another and nature in finding the most and best rocks. For extra credit they constructed an astro lab and a spectroscope. Experiments included the separation of mercury from mercuric oxide. The aquarium of Room 202 was filled with guppies and goldfish; that is, if they survived attention, odors, and food bestowed upon them by the many individuals' interest in their well-being. 46,656 CUBIC INCHES equals one cubic yard.

THE BIRDS AND THE BEES attract the attention of Eighth grade Science student Larry Koch. Models were used to clarify questions concerning structure of living creatures. Weather Determines COMING TO A SCREECHING HALT, the boys' Phy Ed class shows a tendency toward more words and less action concerning the rubberoid sphere in front of them, leaving it in total isolation. They have also been known to bark on command. DON'T WORRY, JANE, I'M COMING! peals John Tarzan Knickerbocker as he swings freely in the breeze during a hemp attempt on the gym ceiling. Hey, I don't think my arms are supposed to bend that way, pleaded the tortured members of girls' gym classes, but to no avail as Miss Marja-Leena Onermaa sit-upped, jumping-jacked, and leg-stretched them into limberness. Respect for beasts of burden accompanied skill as two-girl teams mastered a complicated camel walk. Chinese get-ups were more than long black braids and almond eyes—the teams were forced to put their backs together for the ultimate end. Stunts faded into co-ordination and girls' physical education got on the ball with a flourish of baskets and volleys. Tennis rackets appeared with the first green blades of grass, rounding out a year of sports. Ups and downs were always potential hazards as the girls swung, jumped, and climbed through a second year of exercises on the rope, rings, and trampoline. 48 busy F°orfc a , Jo ,nSo Pr cHc How. e«-« £?£x, -sew . „ — •Vwt-Sludl!'“ 4wSWea'- ness Drey m the 'F'Pated from af GV °a f, _ 'r £� bSztugsr-' . • throughout the wToter'L,h7 '' iled fo iOQ aoc QVmmc, er wh e turn- Z4£Z £ n?-, “ spss sr. «S73U£3 s.of Twins by heading for the baseball field.

FROM PHILOSOPHY to humor, Mrs. Evelyn Arends and Mrs. Margaret Sperry put books back into circulation on the library shelf. Service with a smile could very well have been the motto of the office staff. Besides catering to the needs of the students, the secretaries kept up correspondence, issued bulletins, and handled lunch and activity funds. Working twelve months a year, the secretaries led a busy yet interesting life. Summer months were highlighted by visits from students in need of first aid and from boys with torn pants. Ten books for every student was the goal for the library in 1963. Besides buying, processing, and checking out books, Mrs. Evelyn Arends and Mrs. Margaret Sperry provided Vikings with reading guidance, located references, and bought books for the library of the new middle school. Third hour brings with it many things, among them pangs of hunger which grow increasingly worse as the aroma of food rises in the halls. Mrs. Hazel Dawson, Mrs. Pauline Rubow, and Mrs. Dorothy Elmqulst had the task of satisfying the inner man. Rising early in the morning and leaving after school hours, the three prepared lunches for over three hundred students a day. Capping the year was the annual band contest, held April 4, at which time over 500 musicians and directors were fed. Dressed in suits of Lincoln Gray, Clarence Holtz and his band of merry men worked eight hours a day to wash, wax, shine, and vacuum the school to a squeaky-cleanness. The custodial staff also transformed dance wonderlands back to the Cafetorium and hunted for girls' purses under the bleachers after games. SMILING A WELCOME, Custodians Clarence Stratton and Carroll Nelson await morning arrivals. The entire custodial staff was supervised by Head Engineer Clarence Holtz, not pictured. 50 A PIE fit for a king or 70 students is baked by Mmes. Hazel Dawson and Dorothy Elmquist.

THERAPIST Mrs. lone Stiegler aids Bill Buchen and Steve Ewald in correcting speech difficulties. Students met with Mrs. Stiegler individually and in small groups during the school day. 51 52 53 People AN INTEGRAL PART of the class day is studying, and the library provides an atmosphere conducive to such enterprise. Students and faculty alike seek out its pleasant atmosphere, extensive reference works, non-fiction books, and magazines for informational and leisure time use. REMOVING EXCESS MAKE-UP Bob Shapiro, as a member of the Junior class play cast, participates in one of the many activities offered to interested students. People are needed to insure a venture's success, and enthusiastic class cooperation accounted for the play's success. 54 Lines Reflect Vikings, Activities Through the year, Valleyites found themselves a common denominator in a multitude of lines. Lines weren't lines; but reflections of the people. Lunch lines were as restless as the most rank-conscious Senior and as settled as the most complacent Seventh Grader. Students read between, around, through and over lines in their search for knowledge, sometimes to no avail. Deadlines were met or missed. Party lines were a constant source of pleasure. Golden Valley students were ready and willing to lend their support to all school sock hops as well as class parties. Along more traditional lines, Valleyites spent another year organizing annual dances into happy memories. Clubs and ac- tivities were perpetuated by student interest. Boundary lines were a part of life, and privileged Seniors t a u n t e d impatient Juniors through the glass of the Senior Court. Lines of worry dug into once smooth brows as many students succumbed to daily occupational hazards, and classes continued in weekly routine.

Class of 1963 Last in Long Line The last in a long line of small classes, the Class of 1963 numbered but 46 as compared to succeeding classes which will boast at least 80 members. Six years ago, rough and ready Seventh Graders looked forward to the day when they could graduate and let the world know they were the first class to have gone all the way through Golden Valley High School. Members of this fifth graduation class can recall the excitement of tramping down the halls of the not-then-com-pleted school in search of their next class. Adding to Seventh Grade wonderment were a flurry of hammers and saws and workmen wandering in and out of classrooms through the floor. Time moves quickly, and people change as do all things. The high school was finished long ago and now our district is working to complete the new Middle School. Those Seventh Graders, six years later, aren't so rough; and, perhaps, they are a bit more ready. Ready—as the cliche goes —to go out into the world and seek their fortunes. High school activities fell into line as the Class of 1963 ventured into and out of studies and extracurricular activities with nary a mishap. Cramming for inevitable tests, writing countless papers; attending and sponsoring Homecoming festivies, Sadie Hawkins, Christmas and Valentine Dances, and Junior-Senior Proms were all part of the grind. As Seniors, the group anticipated graduation, hoping that recurrent attacks of Senioritis, that disease peculiar only to those strange beings called Seniors, would subside. Graduating Seniors will wend their way into varied occupational lines.

Other Seniors will attend business and trade schools; some will enter the service, and still others will begin working following graduation. Many students will hold down summer jobs, ranging from typing to building a missile site to doing medical research work.

JUST SINGING IN THE RAIN, Mara Vidins and Judy Cummer enjoy the Senior Court despite moisture in the air. No matter how clement or inclement the weather. Seniors were the only ones allowed to step over the threshold into exclusive surroundings. 63 Juniors Prom-ote Enthusiastically The date was January 18, 1963. Twenty-six brave and foolhardy souls from the Junior class set out on their first party of the school year—a sleigh ride. The reason for the small attendance was the 26' below zero weather. Juniors, with their eyes on the big project of the year, the Prom, started the year off with a bang and the Homecoming dance. The class raised money, $1300 of it. by selling Homecoming pins and pennants, basketball concessions, and GV sweatshirts. As they moved into the year, Juniors began to think about college and careers. The future was brought closer to home by such tests as the National Merit Scholarship Test. Extracurricular activities gave the dramatists, athletes, and writers a chance to display their talents.

The skit, put on to advertise their dance, Beaux and Arrows, was just one of the examples of the spirit of cooperation which was characteristic of the 77 students. Lorie Kueffner, class treasurer, reported the always plaguing problem—finances. Further away from the situation, President Roger Haar, Vice President Robert Ostroot, and Secretary Richard Koeneman were content to guess how they fared. Fun and baseball were on the agenda as the adventure-seeking students took a spring expedition to Taylor's Falls. 68 Roger Hick Patricia Hoiseth William Hume Wayne Jeppesen James Johnson Kirk Johnson Sharon Jones Linda Jorgenson Nancy Kari Thomas Koch Joseph Koelfgren Richard Koeneman lorie Kueffner Stephen Lang Barbara Lee Joanne Lenske James McCabe Marilyn McManus PUBLIC ENEMIES 3205 to 3290 decorate the bulletin board outside Mr. Lockwood's Sophomore sheriff's office and homeroom.

Even though they were a year older and a grade higher, lockers still refused to open and the lunch line was still hopelessly long. Under the leadership of class officers Greg Gruman, Jann Olsten, Lee Mitchell, and Paul Pru- sak and Advisers Homer Moeller, Roger Johnson, and Harold Flolid, the class raised money through class dues and held the annual class party in May. Club and organization members found many bright and fresh new faces in their midst as the ninth graders enthusiastically joined the Band, Choir, language clubs, and other extracurricular activities.

Science classes found the students playing guinea pigs as an educational television series met the test of practicality. Even TV can be routine, though, and classes were enlivened by model vol- canoes and easy, yet mystifying, tricks. Besides joining the Band, Choir, and Library Club, the Eighth Grade took an active part in the Junior Red Cross by assisting in planning a dance to raise money for the school chest. One dance led to another and May 24 marked the class party and another Eighth Grade planned success.

Green and blue baubles, sprayed with silver and dashed with sparkling glitter, hung from the ceiling casting an Aurora Borealis glow on a transformed Cafetorium. A STATELY DANCE is executed by the newly-crowned Homecoming coronation couple. Queen Nancy Statt and King Morgan Nelson. A specialness in decorations, which impressed all dance-goers, was added to the simulated Viking-of-yore setting with skins enhancing the Cafetorium walls. 86 Specialness Lines Year’s Events A flower pressed into faded fragility, a button, brown and gold and still screaming Crown the Royals, a program, proud of a class play and creased at a name, half a ski, a napkin shiny with a Class of 1963 —each one of these is a touchable memory, a line leading a Valleyite back to special people and places, back to a year of special events. Dances were as seasonal as Christmas, as bizarre as Sadie Hawkins, as formal as the Prom and as traditional as Homecoming. Classes planned dances, growing as a group and learning responsibility. Dance by dance Vikings learned to anticipate the inevitable break in a line of schedules climaxed by an evening of fun. The dramatic of GV allowed lines to form another self as Juniors and Seniors presented plays. Another Sno Day established itself as a comfortable, relaxed habit too inviting to pass up. Seniors found specialness in ceremony. An end, a beginning —it was graduation, and six years of memories, of friends, of a way of life had to be remembered, celebrated, and fare-welled. Most of all, a year passed—a year often highlighted by the specialness of a situation. A COURTROOM DRAMA is presented with the Junior class the prosecuting attorney (Tom McAuliffe) approaches the play. The Night of January Sixteenth.

YEAH, VALLEY was the cheer echoed forth by Valleyites in the frenzy of the Homecoming bonfire. On the following day, October 12, the heroic Viking warriors proceeded to crown the Royals of Watertown 31 to 7. Keyed Up HOMECOMING ROYALITY—Attendants: Freshman Marilyn Attendants: Senior Skip Hall, Junior Judd Nelson, Sopho-Hass, Sophomore Diane Engelbert, Junior Nancy Lindberg, more Wayne Beske, Freshman Lee Mitchell. The royal family Senior Joan Raabe. Queen Nancy Sfatt, King Morgan Nelson. reigned at bonfire, game, and dance activities. Valley Crowns Royals, Royalty Pepfested, publicized, and participating, a primed Valley whirled into a week of spiraling Homecoming activity and tradition. Speeches were spontaneous with a confused sincerity, and a disarmed assembly clapped tribute to their royalty as King Morgan Nelson promised to be a worthy and good queen. Far more queenly-qualified, Nancy Statt shared the October 12 throne. Valleyites learned that crowning weren't always honoring acts when they became aware of a button by button campaign to crown opposing Watertown Royals. A day-before-the-game crowd watched while a Watertown effigy was bonfired to ashes. Homecoming weather and the headiness of 31-7 victory suited celebrating Vikings at the Home-coming dance. Dance-sponsoring Juniors achieved a pagan atmosphere inspired by the fire and Norseness of the week. Coronation of royalty highlighted the night. BESTOWING a queenly kiss on her father, Homecoming Queen Nancy Statt accepts a bouquet of roses. DIGNITY REIGNED at the height of Homecoming when Tom Ylvisaker crowned bashful Morgan Nelson Homecoming King.

My Sister Eileen was a hit Broadway and movie production before being brought to GV by the seniors. Breakthrough, Sound Failures Yield CONGA! RUMBLE THE PORTUGUESE sailors delightedly as they initiate a wild Latin American type bunny hop with Eileen Sherwood (Nancy Wheel-house) as their figurehead and fearful leader. With a Donald Duck medley of fast talking voices Seniors presented My Sister Eileen. A mix-up of the sound tape with a Spanish conversation tape along with the wrong recorder speed caused the delay. After several minutes of almost professional adlibbing, leads Eileen Sherwood (Nancy Wheelhouse), her sister Ruth (Leslie Mitchell), and landlord, Mr. Appopolus (Jim Miller) heard the rumble of a subway under their Greenwich Village studio. The comedy, directed by Miss Patricia Neill was the story of two young Ohio girls who came to New York to get acting and newspaper jobs. Neither could find employment, and scatterbrained Eileen picked up men wherever she went. But the girls' hilarious position was resolved with the help of a strong supporting cast. 90 LOSING a controlled temper, prominent witness John Whitfield (Pete Myhre) attacks his interrogator.

Unrehearsed juries found the dependent not guilty in spite of Roberta's sincere story. Louder! You must learn to project your voice! The hue and cry was out for Bjorn Faulkner, as the Junior Class put on its first class play The Night of January Sixteenth. Night had several unusual features which made it different from other plays put on at Valley. It featured audience participation and had actors making their entrances from all parts of the Cafetorium. It was one of two serious dramas ever put on at GV. Juniors worked day and night to create courtroom atmosphere with fake wood paneling, captain's chairs, and library tables. Getting up early and staying late became routine. The whole thing ended in grand fashion with Bob Shapiro breaking through the witness stand, and Miss Calabresa announcing her departure from G.V.

HITCHING another Dogpatch couple, Nancy Wheelhouse and Fred Hass, the Reverend Mr. Ross has a busy night down in the valley. Time: Sundown, November 3. Place: a Dcgpatched Cafetorium, somewhere in Golden Valley. People: Golden Valley Sadies and their Yokumized dates. Once again, under the guise of paying tribute to Al Capp and his characters, Valleyites dressed in comfortable clothes and attended GV's most informal dance. A there's-more-corn-than-pa-per mood was set with the corn husk and magic tickets at the annual and again successful Senior sponsored Sadie Hawkins Dance. Marryin' Sam (Dick Ross), his corn-covered marryin' booth, and Sadies in hitchings as colorful as the hay strewn room was not were main attractions. Nancy Lindberg and Dick Merwin were chosen as the Most Hill-Billian couple and were given passes to home basketball games. The South Pacific was featured this year in GV's APS program. Juan dela Cruz Ferrer came to the US from the Philippines and Mary Leach left her homeland for a year's stay in New Zealand. John Ferrer, GV's fourth AFS student, invaded the USA and the Charles F. Murphy household for a nine months stay in August. A completely Americanized John fit smoothly into the GV life and was well liked by all. Completing the other end of the two way ticket, Mary Leach earned a trip to New Zealand. Mary was the first Valleyite to go on the AFS school program. A chicken dinner early in the year was used to raise money for next year's student. THE MALE QUARTER of the AFS panel group fakes the mike in the person of John Ferrer. Leslie Mitchell, two exchange students from other schools, and John presented the panel to the student body and later to the PTA.

Popular hits of more moderate tempo were also played by Steve Peer who can be seen in the background with his trumpet. Norseman Necromancy may be the art of foretelling the future by communication with the dead, but when the dead are the Norsemen, the interpreters Golden Valley Seniors, and the season full of gay Santa Clausy spirit, it's a dance. White snowflakes and silver stars reflected the blue and green of suspended baubles, giving the Cafetorium an Ice Palace atmosphere. Sparkling blue-green centerpieces pulled the colors from table to table. Punch and sandwiches refreshed danced-out couples, content to listen to former Valleyite Steve Peer and his five-piece combo. Dropping down the Ice Palace's inviting chimney, a waylaid Santa, driven off his northern course by the festivity of the dance, was a surprise attraction for dance-goers. Santa, upholding tradition, presented everyone with gifts. 94 PLUMMETING down the slope wild and woolly, Fred Hass sprays snow in his wake as he completes a quick stop on his way down the hill. TRYING DESPERATELY to make it down the hill just once is Mrs. Robert Lockwood. Chaperons and students who ventured out were rewarded with sore muscles and mild cases of frostbite. Necromancy, Skis Mark Holidays Birthday partying Valleyites packed skis, poles, and sleepy bodies into the Greyhound buses, just making the 7:30 in the morning Student Council-planned departure, and headed for the snowy slopes of Trollhaugen Ski Resort. The birthday, George Washington's, was coincidental, but did prove to be a beautiful, snow-on-the-ground, schoolless day. Chaperones set bad examples by refusing to wear the painstakingly prepared ski patrol bibs. However, accidents were minor and confined predominantly to the skis rather than the skiers. After eight hours on the slopes, weary Valleyites returned to their buses and welcomed a card playing, sleeping trip home. School schedules found skiers favoring still sore, weekend old muscle strains. EXCELLENT MEDICAL ATTENTION is given to Jon Lang by Sno-Day chaperons Tom Benepe and Robert Lockwood. Jon rapidly recovered from the accident and medical attention. Despite many falls. Valley Sno-Dayers received no major injuries at Trollhaugen. 95 AMID HEARTS AND CUPIDS, Eileen Murphy, Juan Ferrer, Bill Adolfson, and Claire Anderson sit one out tq chat and admire the Sophomore inspired decor. Decor, Crowning Highlight Evening With a flash of red and a blaze of Beaux and Arrows ' Sophomore Robin Hoods dedicated thems.elves to the production of the Valentine's Dance. Simple, modern, and consistent decorations provided a holiday background as the Sophs dreamlandized the Cafetorium. Dancers entered the gaily colored room through heart-shaped swinging doors. The theme was completed by the addition of a Tunnel of Love, candy kiss centerpieces, and colorful streamers. Highlighting the evening was the crowning of Cupid's Couple, Skip Hall and Leslie Mitchell by the 1962 pair. Sue Crowder and Bob Larson. Skip and Leslie were chosen by the dance-goers in a pre-dance vote. The gala affair featured the music of Roger Eckers. A SPOTLIGHT DANCE is led off by the newly crowned Cupid's Couple, Leslie Mitchell and Skip Hall. OPENING HIS HEART to Beth Schiefelbein is gallant Dick Ross as they enter a land of Beaux and Arrows. This Sophomore sponsored event featured a tunnel of love, silhouettes on the wall, and the crowning of Cupid's Couple. 96 The air was filled with eagerness, excitement, and anticipation. The date was April 4, and the occasion was the annual AAVC Band Contest. This event, held at Golden Valley for the first time created many moods and feelings for Valleyites. To students, it meant getting out of school early; to the faculty, the day was one of supervision and help; to bandsmen, it was a day of competition and a test of skill. After months of practice, practice, and more practice, the Golden Valley musicmen played for a B plus rating. Bandsmen then scattered to help other musicians around the school building. Bands were never alone for a moment as dozens of painstakingly prepared signs directed them where to go and what to do. GV rhythm-makers acted as guides and guards as they led bands from homerooms to the warm-up area to the waiting area to the playing stage in the gym. Hundreds of bandsmen ended the day on a happy note as they assembled for a mass band concert. THESE ARE THE GUARDS. Don't you dare enter—the doors are closed!

The new members were called up from the audience to receive their membership pins and cards and to receive the oath. Enjoying ice cream, cookies, dancing, and dinners, A and B honor-rollers were treated to three National Honor Society parties during the year. These parties were among tangible rewards for good grades. Two of the parties were held on borrowed time as the students were released at three o'clock for ice cream and cookie rewards. The second nine week period was dined and danced out when a breath of spring blew ice and plans for a skating party into soggy, blade-rusting puddles. The promise of food and parties gave Valleyites an l-guess-it-does-matter-if-l'm-on-or-off attitude toward the honor roll. Abandoning their festivities for a more solemn occasion, the NHS held its fifth annual induction and welcomed nine new members. Candles, which proved to be the smoky, drippy kind, added a note of humor to the afternoon. 98 YOU SAY the Valley Viewer swipes pictures from the Viking once more and I'll squish your cherry, threatens Kathie Mikucki as she spots Mike Murphy in line. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED. Principal Dewey Breisch takes his place in line helping the Honor Society members serve cherries, chocolate sauce, and Reddi-Whip to suit every personal taste.

Artistic Dreams Become Realities Golden Valley's Triple Threat Show of Shows (Art, Home Ec., and Shop) took place in the middle of May this year. Art students worked to present their year's accomplishments in the Walker Art Center manner, with special attention given to the hanging of pictures and the placing of sculpture. A puppet show of comic intent was included. Home Economics students showed off their proficiency in the fields of home and family, as they displayed their dressmaking skill and way with food. A tea for visitors provided the girls with the opportunity to present table settings and their color co-ordinated interior dec- oration plans. Industrial Art students displayed their skill in carpentry and mechanics, and especially in home design, with complete blueprints and scale models of their dream homes, replete with landscaping and cost of materials. 100 THE SKY WAS THE LIMIT for shop students as they built everything from duckbcafs to bedside tables. Of particular interest to Mr. Melvin Rockier was this solar furnace built by Gerry Nordley. The instrument produces temperatures up to 2000’ F. by focusing the sun's rays. CHATTING over a refreshing cup of coffee, Mrs. Breisch and Mrs. Benepe pause in the Home Ec room after viewing the Art, Shop, and Home Ec Show.

Medieval Castle Chenonceaux” With banners and torches, parchment and flags, royal red and gold, the dream of a prom in a story-book atmosphere came true at the Junior-sponsored Chenonceaux. Named for a chateau in France, Chenonceaux began the traditional exhausting weekend for the participants. During the evening, couples were entertained by parents who came to take pictures and see the Grand March, by the Yeomen, and by each other. A dinner of lobster or prime ribs put prom-gcers in a mood mellow enough to accept the after-dinner remarks of Gregg Parmelee. A night of dancing served as a prelude for clean-up duty, two-in-the-morning swimming, and picnics at Taylors Falls. With disturbing regularity and routine, Monday morning found the royalty of the castle Cheno-ceaux back in their disguised roles of tired but very pleased GV students. FLOATING around fhe dance floor, Promers dance under fhe dimmed lights and medieval decorations of Chenonceaux. The Rich Clausen Orchestra supplied the music, which was interrupted once during the evening for entertainment by the Yeomen. 103 Seniors Skip to Minnehaha Park, A gait composed of alternating hops and steps hadn't been performed by most Seniors since grade school days but on April 26, had they been asked, they probably would have complied. It was Senior Skip Day. Starting with a party at Morgan Nelson's home the night before, the famed 46 danced and ate until the early hours of the morning, only to return at ten or rides to the movie The Ugly American. Picnicking and baseball ended the day at Minnehaha Park. Cragun's Resort on Gull Lake beckoned to 30 graduates, and chaperons, Mr. and Mrs. Eailor Mellberg and Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Rosholt, following the graduation reception. A Greyhound delivered the group shortly after midnight, and all disappeared into cabins only to emerge a few moments later garbed in swimming suits for a poolside party. After little or no sleep everyone reappeared to take advantage of a full agenda of swimming, boating and horseback riding, or just relaxing. Friday morning came too fast, and 30 heavy-eyed, but happy, graduates and four exhausted chaperons boarded the Greyhound bound for home and sleep. ABOUT to make a big splash, Paul Enghauser submits to efforts of Jeff Ericson, Fred Hass, Gary Hayes, and Gary LeDoux. WATER-melon or otherwise—played a big part in Senior trip activities. AFSer Johnny Ferrer discovered a new food and a new sport—water skiing. 104 Trip to Gull Lake BEDRAGGLED from the effects of wind, weather, and water, a tired group of graduates sit down to eat a hearty picnic lunch prepared by Gull Lake resort owner Dutch” Cragun and his crew.

Amid smiles and joy, 46 ex-Seniors, GV's fifth graduating class, strode confidently from the gym floor, diplomas in hand. Thus ended twelve years of school life and activity. After several days of confusing practices, the Seniors jelled into perfection and marched with matched steps into the gym at 7:30, June 5, to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance. During the ceremony, six scholarships were presented. Valedictory and Salutatory addresses were given, and President of the class, Skip Hall, presented Superintendent Kane with the class gift, a piece of sculpture. Diplomas were presented by retiring School Board member, Bob Gomsrud. A Cafetorium reception followed the exercises, and the Seniors then left for Gull Lake. 106 JEFF MclEOD welcomes all to the Commencement exercises as he delivers the opening speech as Salutatorian.

Hard practice sessions, dedicated coaching, and determined participation produced nothing but first division teams for the second time in as many years. Fair play and good sportsmanship were the passwords as GV teams kept up their morale and fans stuck with their favorites through thick and thin. Ticket lines were always long when a Viking team played at home. The winning season began with the football team and continued through to the thinclads. Coach Benepe's gridders won 5 of 8, good for a fourth place finish. The bucketmen, under Coach Whitey Johnson, posted an U-5 record and took third place MVC honors. The matmen grappled their way to fourth. In the spring, the basebaW team played .500 ball and copped a conference fourth. Meanwhile, the record-breaking cindermen finished third. Although records were important, the play's the thing and Viking athletes provided nine months of exciting and fast moving action for Golden Valley fans. ''ALL WORK AND NO PLAY make Judd a dull boy.

Valley started out the season with a crunching 19-0 decision over Waconia. Skip Hall led the team and scored two touchdowns against the hapless Chiefs. It was Golden Valley's seventh straight victory and sixth straight shutout in a string continued from the 1961 season. However, the following week the Vikings were beaten at their own game and fell to a powerful Chaska team 25-0. Following a 18-6 non-conference loss to Breck, Valley took the measure of a previously unbeaten Shakopee team 19-7. This win was well received since the Indians had beaten Chaska the week before. On the night of October 5, Coach Benepe's boys engaged the Little Gophers from U-High and spoiled their Homecoming by winning a 7-6 thriller. Showing an awesome display of offensive power and bonecrunching defense. Valley Crowned the Royals of Water-town for an impressive 31-7 Homecoming victory. However, the next two games knocked the Vikings out of title contention. First they lost a 19-13 heart-breaker to Eden Prairie and then were shellacked 25-0 by the eventual conference champion, Orcno. The Seniors on the team, playing their last game, then led the Vikings to a 33-0 romp over St. Anthony. The Seniors played the last four minutes of the game as a unit. The team finished with a 5-3 conference record and a fourth place standing.

Vikings Tie for Conference Third DAAAA, what do I do with it now, wonders Dick Merwin in GV's battle with St. Louis Park. The 1962-1963 season was one of ups and downs for the GV basketball Vikings. The team was good on defense and rebounding, but was plagued through the year by poor shooting. Valley opened the Conference season with a 64-32 romp over Waconia as three men scored in the double figures. Traveling to Chaska, the cold-shooting bucket-men bowed 44-41 after blowing a nine point half-time lead. Valley rolled over St. Anthony 68-45 behind Steve Rosholt's 31 points. Three days later, the team stayed with U-High through the first three quarters but fell apart in the fourth to lose 56-45. GV then went on a short winning spree as they downed Watertown 50-42, Eden Prairie 61-51, and fought off a final quarter surge to beat Orono 40-42. Three days later, the fourth quar- ter shooting blues got to the Vikings as they lost to Shakopee 46-53. Beginning the second half of the circuit. Valley rolled over Waconia 46-33. The following week, the team scored only two points in the final quarter as they squeaked by Chaska 36-34. St. Anthony fell before the Viking attack 64-47 three days later. . Conference leaders U High out-scored the Vikings in every quarter and smothered the hoop-men 71-55. Valley gunned in 32 points in the final quarter as they swamped Watertown 79-38. Eden Prairie fell 61-42 before Orono turned the tables and beat Valley 38-34. Valley closed out the season by whipping Shakopee 73-50. St. Louis Park downed the Vikings 71-55 in the sub-districts. 114 Season Record GV 64 Waconia 32 41 Chaska 44 68 St. Anthony 45 45 U-High 56 50 Watertown 42 61 Eden Prairie 51 42 Orono 40 46 Shakopee 53 46 Waconia 33 36 Chaska 34 64 St. Anthony 47 55 U-High 71 79 Watertown 38 64 Eden Prairie 42 34 Orono 38 73 Shakopee 50 Conference Standing s W L U-High 16 0 Chaska 12 4 Golden Valley 11 5 Orono 11 5 Shakopee 9 7 Eden Prairie 5 11 St. Anthony 4 12 Watertown 2 14 Waconia 2 14 A FEINT and a quick stop free Jeff McLeod from a close guarding St. Louis Park defenseman.

The B-Squad then coasted to a conference championship on a 14-2 record. The championship was the third in four years for Coach Jim Kimble's team. The team smashed out decisive victories over most of their hapless opponents. The most exciting games were one point wins over Chaska and U-High. Late in the season, player losses to the A-Squad threw the team off balance. In the final two games of the season, Orono and Shako-pee managed to grind out six and five point victories. Nevertheless, the team finished a full two games ahead of the nearest contender.

Cheerleading camp at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, was their destination. Here hard work and more hard work prevailed. Running a half mile, doing calisthenics and cheering were all part of the daily routine. Cheerleaders brought back new and varied cheers for the season ahead. Practices were held during the summer as well as twice weekly when school started. When football season ended and basketballs came into view, the six girls also took on a new appearance. Donned in bright gold culottes and white bulky sweaters, they brought life to the gym floor. With the help of Miss Onermaa and a few faculty members, the B Squad was chosen. They elected to practice on the same days as A Squad members. All practices started with vigorous enthusiasm but as the minutes wasted away so did the cheering and practices usually ended in gossip sessions. A-SQUAD CHEERLEADERS-Teri Gomsrud, Lynn Beliak, Claire Anderson, Beth Schiefelbein, Carol Nafstad, and Margaret Mitchell.

Gary Hayes, the wrestling team's India rubber man, grimaces as he attempts to get on top of his opponent from Eden Prairie. Gary wrestled in the 165 pound class and took third place in the conference meet. Golden Valley matmen compiled a 4th place won-lost record during the 1963 season in competition against such powerhouses as Annandale. Last year's MVC champs captured fourth place in the conference this year. Leading the Vikings were Judd Nelson (175) and heavyweight Wayne Beske, who both took first place honors. Morgan Nelson (145) copped a second place while Dary Sheehy (112) and Gary Hayes (165) placed third. Stephen Lang (103), Chuck Gore (120), and T. W. Johnson (154) took fourth place awards. Sophomore heavyweight Wayne Beske became the second Valleyite to place in the district meet by placing third. Wayne then became the first GV wrestler ever to wrestle in the regional meet. Valley placed tenth in the regional meet as Beske, John Knickerbocker, T. W. Johnson, and Gary Hayes each won one match.

Golden Valley's baseball team finished a strong fourth in Valley Conference Play with a record of four wins and four losses. Two members of the Viking team were selected as All-Conference—Jeff McLeod and Gary Hayes. Jim Russell's and Steve Rosholt's 8 inning pitching victory over South 5-4 and Judd Nelson's 8 inning win over Hopkins 5-3 highlighted the non-conference play. Terry Rosengren took the mound in GV's first conference game against Shakopee. With the game tied 5-5 in the 6th inning, Judd Nelson singled and scored on a hit by Gery Hayes, giving Valley a 6-5 win despite 6 errors. Steve Rosholt's excellent pitching allowed Chaska only one earned run but errors allowed two more against Chaska. A Viking rally failed and they bowed 3-2. Rosholt and Jim Johnson pitched a fine game and the Viking hitters backed them up against U-High. The team scored six runs in the second inning and coasted to a 12-1 win. With the momentum of the 11 run victory over U-High, Vikings continued in the same manner and smothered Eden Prairie 17-1 with 14 hits. In a hard fought game, Orono snatched a 2-0 victory from the Vikings. The Spartans were held to only 4 hits but Valley collected a scant two. The loss brought the season record to 3-2. Watertown grabbed a three run lead in the first inning and coasted home to a 9-2 victory. Valley collected 8 hits and loaded the bases three times but could not push the runs across. Five unearned runs aided the Royals' cause. A two run GV lead was erased by a seven run Waconia 7th inning as the Chiefs won 9-2. In the final game of the season, GV topped St. Anthony 11-2.

The blazers were designed to give recognition to the members of the club in much the same manner as the Lettermen's jackets and sweaters. This year, the Lettermen's Club aimed to promote enthusiasm in sports and to develop characteristics of a good athlete. The club led in the development of athletic activities. Handling twenty to twenty-five girls two nights a week can be a hectic job. But along with their adviser Miss Onermaa, President Lois Bills, Vice President Claire Anderson, and Secretary-Treasurer Janice Horne did a fine job. Keeping the girls physically fit was the purpose of the organization. To help with the job, the girls used gym facilities. Outside activities were archery, horseback riding, and bowling. 122 TROPHY still in hand. Athlete of the Year Skip Hall gets a congratulatory kiss from his mother following the presentation of the award at the Athletic Banquet. LETTERS AND LETTERMEN are more than cloth and players and the point is well emphasized in Coach Whitey Johnson's expression which preceded the presentation of the football awards and letters. Dinner Honors Hall, Athletes FIVE YEARS of Athletes of the Year pose for a group shot. The winners are Clint Ewald, 1962; Bill Kuhlman, 1961; Skip Hall. 1963; Jim Elmquist, 1960; and Denny Erickson, 1959. The winners return each year to attend the banquet. Among a crowd of spectators, GV athletes received recognition for a job well done in sports. The scene was the annual Athletic Banquet held at Golden Valley Golf Club on May 7. The evening was started with a delicious Swiss steak dinner. After an introductory speech by Dr. Elmer Kane, Athletic Director Jerry Holewa introduced the guest speaker. Red Seiverson. Mr. Seiverson, basketball coach at St. Cloud State College, gave a talk on positive thinking in athletics. Coaches then presented letters for wrestling and football. The highlight gf the evening came when Skip Hall was presented with the Senior Athlete of the Year award. Skip, a 12-letter man, had been in the GV sports program for five years and had captained several teams. 123 T0 For the second year in a row, GV's discus and shot man Skip Hall went to the State Track Meet. And, for the second year in a row. Skip placed fourth in the discus event. Skip's winning effort was hailed by GV. Other members of the track team had fine seasons also. Coach Benepe's team topped off a very fine season with a third place in the conference meet. The high point of the season was a 7OVi to 57 V2 decision over Orono in a triangular meet with Orono and St. Anthony. Captain Skip Hall led the Valley record-breaking barrage. He smashed two of his own school records with a 53 foot 4 inch shot put and a 155 feet Vi inch heave in the discus. Tim Flanagan followed with three records. Tim clocked an excellent 21.2 seconds in the 880 yard low hurdles, jumped 19 feet 7Va inches in the broad jump, and was a member of the record-breaking mile relay team. Other records were broken by the Valley trackmen. Bob Madden broke the school record in the 880 yard run with a time of 2 minutes 11.3 seconds. Jim Peterson broke his own school record while soaring to a height of 10 feet 3 inches in the pole vault. Fred Hass chopped the mile record to 4 minutes 59.4 seconds. The mile relay team made up of Reger Hick, Tim Flanagan, John Kulenkamp, and Bill Adolfson clocked a superlative 3 Hall Goes to State; A DISCUS may look like a paper plate, but Skip Hall assures Hub Nelson it weighs a lot more.
