A Vietnam settlement, said LBJ, would be negotiated any time, any place. The peace talks dragged on in Paris. Nixon was elected and moved to withdraw 25,000 troops. Two manned moonshots, one capsule nicknamed Charlie Brown, paved the way for a lunar landing, and, closer to home, hijackers steered many planes to Cuba. Jackie Kennedy married millionaire Aristotle Onassis. The South elected its first black mayor while Minneapolis chose Stenvig, a law-and-order candidate. The possibility of becoming an international air center spurred Twin Citians to search for a second airport site. They also protested NSP s plans for a nuclear-powered generator. To be rebuilt at a later time, the Walker Art Center was demolished. It was a time of change and growth in the high school. With unscheduled time, students could use the new carrel area, library, cafeteria or empty classrooms. More freedom led to discipline problems and student-staff conferences were held. The unisex trend was evident in fashions after the dress code change and in home ec and industrial ed enrollment. Plays became big time all-school productions. As auditorium-classroom addition plans advanced, one teacher found office space, for the time being, in Mrs. ErdahPs living room. 4 —Marcus Aurelius Even with the new freedoms and concerns, there was still the old need for time off. Some of the necessary comic relief, such as Sno-week's casual dress day, was planned; some, like the pump problems and a smoking movie projector, just happened. A band concert with a short trombonist amused the school; a bomb scare did not. In 1969, students kept time to strangely named groups like the Jefferson Airplane and The Vanilla Fudge. When someone wanted to mark time, they gave a teacher a birthday party, dressed ten years behind the times in a pony tail and bobby sox or tried to see how many typewriter keys they could jam together. Yet no matter how much they got away with, they still had to contend with the math final and timed writings. 7 Weakened time and again by heart attacks, Eisenhower died. Quarterback Joe Namath tearfully announced the untimely end of his football career. Czechoslovakia had glimpsed freedom for some time, but the Russian invasion crushed hopes for reform. The Pueblo crew, however, was freed after months in North Korea. Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas left the bench when Life disclosed that he had accepted questionable funds. Being a senior meant knowing that many of the most common school experiences were occuring for the last time. Along with Mr. Saunders, the class of '69 viewed commencement as an end to their years in GVHS. 8 |V . ShaVespeare Henry 10 'iff The lady walked into the First National Bank countless times in world affairs films. Audio-visual and other aids such as library resources, Time magazine and equipment including power saws, language labs and a computer fortified regular lectures and discussions. Taking advantage of schoolyard ponds, science classes chased plankton in canoes. Because unscheduled free time replaced that time-honored institution, study hall, and allowed students to come late and leave early, attendance was taken hourly. The three afternoon hours rotated in three-week cycles. Report card grades weren't given all the time. Seniors were permitted to take one course pass-fail. The English teachers planned an almost totally elective program to begin in the 1969-70 year. Two school board incumbents were replaced in the May election. Near the year's end, the board surprised and angered many by indicating that they wished Mr. Saunders would leave. stop! mm I DO NOT GO TO YOUF LOCKER WHILE CLASS IN SESSION II 12 AtHE BOARD OF EDUCATION—Clork Donald Wiese treasurer Howard Kfoinnian. director Merlon Dresser. superintendent Howard Casmey. direcior Omar Hill, chairman Leslie Blanc, vico chairman 8rucc McNeil.

GVHS administrators demonstrated their often-tried patience. Fast growth in Independent School District 275 led to increased administrative concern about ovorcrowding and Board of Education meetings were often spent planning a future addition. Cancellation of the annual all-city danco and the Laughing Gravy were board issues that affected the students. Superintendent Howard Casmey and principal Raymond Saunders showed their faith in the responsibility of students by liberalizing school dress and hair codes. Mr. Casmey was also short on clothing after his home was burglarized and all his suits were taken. Going west for meetings and seminars. Mr. Saunders and guidance counselor Frank Farrell gained knowledge and experience in many aspects of education. Mr. Farrell's activities extended beyond counseling and testing to leading faculty Awareness Committee meetings and manning the microphone at football and basketball games. 13 ▼Mr. Rude proves by anoloqy that there is method to hit molecules. Faculty: Study Halls, Addition Analyzed Unscheduled free time monopolized many debates betwoon teachers. To combat the commotion in the halls and develop more student-teacher dialog, a faculty-student-administration committee was set up to develop and propose solutions. There was also an all-faculty discussion of potential NHS members, something formerly done only by the club's advisors. A committee headed by Mr. Gillogly worked on suggestions for the addition to the high school. Salary negotiations and the pros and cons of a year-round school system wore common topics at monthly GVEA meetings. Expanding the senior English system to all four grades, the English department met weekly to iron out conflicts in their quarter elective program. Mr. Harold Flolid workod towards his master's in biology and administration at Mankato State. Mr. John Mossberg, a former national-international buyer for Dayton's, and Russian-born Larissa Wolfe spent their first year of teaching at GV. After a December 31 wedding. Mr. Huble dramatically waited several weeks before announcing his marriage. Two awareness mootings led by Conrad Balfour consisted of lectures and sensitivity games involving group interaction.

Library, Special Services: Pro Group Gives Book, Health Aid Unscheduled time changed the role of the library as conscientious and industrious workers and researchers studied there quietly. The library's microfilm machines and dime-a-time copier were popular with both students and teachers. Censorship removed the library's newly acquired copy of Norman Mailer's book on Vietnam, but 8,166 books and subscriptions to 105 periodicals remained. Health consultant to District 275 families, Mrs. Helsman also coordinated special services. Dr. Gross, a clinical psychologist from Hennepin County General Hospital, consulted with the faculty about students' learning difficulties and behavior problems. Resource teacher Mr. Peterson instructed students who required additional help outside of the regular educational system. Kids with speech and visual handicaps were given special assistance by Mrs. Stiegler and Mrs. Garey.

Service Staffs: Plates Varicolored, Lavatories Redone Forgotten Americans, pots. mops, steering wheels and dittos in their hands, were all around GV. They were the cooks, custodians, bus drivers and secretaries of District 275. To the students, the cooks were women that showed up at lunchtime to dole the food out on multi-colored plates. Until Mrs. Elmquist. officially head of the cafeteria, believed you when you said you put your lunch ticket in her decorated coffee can. even though she didn't see you do it. The custodians seemed to bo people in regulation grey unitorms who manipulated complicated machines to keep the school clean. Until you discovered they had changed the lavatories' color scheme from grey to green and had had new faucets installed. Or until you forgot your book in a classroom and a custodian unlocked the door for you. Secretaries appeared to be merely a group of women sitting behind electric typewriters. Until you forgot your combination over Christmas vacation and your memory was cheerfully refreshed by a secretary and her card file. Or until one gave you credit for a lunch ticket. Bus drivers were hardly noticed except when they ground the gears or had to ask for directions. Until you were running for the bus stop on a snowy day and the driver patiently waited for you. The service staffs were always forgotten. Until. ▼ Going to any height to improvo the school's appearance. Cliff Borgs paints a foyer beam.

Discussions on boycotting McDonald's, going to school nude and Delano school board crises sparked classes. Offered 13 diverse English courses, senior studies ranged from Shakespeare to Steinbeck. Dickenson to Dionysus and communication to clauses. Seniors, required to take one quarter of composition, had five levels from which to choose. Advanced math and physics students settled down to a routine of sines and tangents, velocity and sound after rejoicing over Mr. Hag-berg's lost first quarter gradebook subsided. Hours of learning were often interrupted by jokes, cakes and other welcome distractions. Undaunted by 15 generations of flying fruit flies, the overpowering odor of formaldehyde and the throbbing of newly-pricked fingers, physiology students studied the realms of life, death, man. woman and infinity. Bob O'Hara, transplanted to GV soil from Benildc, implanted enthusiasm for nature in students as he organized primitive canoe-camping trips. Only seniors were allowed, for the first lime, to take any one of their classes pass fail.

Mr. Borgerding discarded them, to the delight or chagrin of the students. In-depth study of 'Macbeth , dictionaries, poetry and composition were included in junior English. The necessity of final grades kept juniors on their toes. With assistance from golfball. Met Stadium and bumble-boe analogies, chem-studiers struggled with mole quantities and atomic mysteries. Lab. workbook and text book work implemented the curriculum. Gross errors, broken test tubes and book tests provided more headaches. Computer programming offered algebro students a change of pace from radicals, logarithms and trigonometry. After consuming expensive seconds on the computer, aspiring mathematicians programmed the quadratic formula. Determining tho height of the football goal posts and buildings showed tho practical side of math. Delving into the studies of major civilizations. world history scholars learned a range of facts from Egypt to World War II. Movies and television shows added to the required course. Some term papers were researched and turned in. though many juniors chose to make handicraft projects such as model Trojan horses. 24 ▼ Measuring the hoight of a football field lamppost.

Sculptures using geometric forms, curved stitchings, mathematic book reports and homemade (father-made) slido rules left many sophomores scratching un-creative heads. With the boys actively digging in and the girls squeamishly looking away, qrasshoppers. frogs and fetal pigs were dissected in biology. Students also wrote two reports quarterly. After 36 weeks of panel-volunteering, question sets and stacks of illegible notes, tenth graders looked back on a year of lists and facts. American history classes assembled four term papers as they continued their never-endinq search for truth. English classes explored U.S. literature, including Huck Finn and The Ox-Bow Incident. Student evaluation of compositions, a brief grammar unit and poetry completed the oll-American course. From sex to stop signs and basketball to roller bandages, health—phy ed classes covered a wide area. Several students received senior lifesaving certificates in swimming. 27 ► Executing a birds nest with o helping hand.

Freshman Solids: Freshmen Rotate, Electives Limited All freshmen viewed the Oscar-winning movie Oliver! and romantic Romeo and Juliet . English classes also featured Greek mythology, grammar and short stories. Simon and Garfunkel records ushered in the poetry unit. In economics, units on poverty, labor management, occupations and revolution were pondered and discussed. Three term papers were required. Graphing simultaneous equations, coordinating negative and positive numbers, memorizing R x T = D and utilizing the quadratic formula gave freshman algebra I students their first problems with higher mathematics. Square roots became firmly implanted in ninth-graders' minds. Freshmen gained experience for future science studies by takinq both introductory physics and chemistry courses. Topics ranged from speciffc heat to co-valent bonding, linear expansion to balancing equations. Pecking away, personal typists raced through timed writings and learned correct letter format.

Variety of Projects Widen Vocabulary Materials ranging from texts on elementary conversation to the original works of France's and Germany's most celebrated writers assisted language students in mastering a strange tongue and at the same time discovering bits of the essence of centuries of thought. An endless accumulation of tapes and movies brought Europe into perspective. Saint-Exupory, Sartre and Camus proved to fourth year French students that there was more to French literature than merely understanding the diction. Reading fairy tales and writing compositions increased their use of the language. French I. II and III classes made omelets, taped radio shows and enjoyed French songs sung by Peter, Paul and Mary. Besides learning basic vocabulary and working on verb conjugation, the classes frequently used the language lab. Sleepy-eyed and bewildered by Goethe and Kant at 8 a.m., German V students became acquainted with literature and the German heritage. Desiring well-roundcdness, the class also learned poems, wrote stories and sang beer garden songs. Other levels of German classes became proficient in grammar exercises with the help of scores of work sheets. Widening vocabularies, acting in original skits, sinq-ing and dancing the polka kept the students busy.

Distributive Ed, Diversified Occ: Penney's Visited, Court Landscaped Studying the practical phases of the care and feeding of animals, zoology students daily walked to MS I I to view snakes, frogs, mice, gerbils, birds and dogs. For the second semester the theoretical aspects of botany were discussed and an overall landscape of the Middle School court was planned. Market and merchandising students, aided by discussions, a field trip to Penney's and interviews, learned the functions and operations of retail stores. In occupational relations, the class discussed such problems of young workers as taxes, social security and unions. Employee-employee and employer-employee experiences were covered with the help of imported resource people. On-the-job-training class members left school after fourth hour to drive to their year-long jobs. With these opportunities, the young businessmen became accustomed to working relations. Students from the fields of industrial ed. botany and zoology, homo ec. business ed ar.d distributive ed were involved in the course. 32 ▼ Plugged in end pocking away.

Charts on the wall showed how many words per minute each typing student had achieved. Their everyday work included conditioning practice to increase speed, production of letters. envelopes and themes, and timed writings to measure speed and accuracy. Business math was offered to orient the student to economics around him. Thirty-five to 40 areas such as banking, interest and installment buying were covered. Students in bookkeeping learned about subjects ranging from keeping records in journals to financial reports. Typing, dittos, dictaphones, paper correcting and calculators were mastered by the students in office practice. A field trip to the executive offices of Gamble-Skogmo gave them a chance to see office skills in use. 33 School store salosmen Dan Dahlquist and Kovin Morlhom try to equal the $350 sole) record for animal wall plaques. Home Ec.: State Homemaker Wins Money, Trip Linda Johnson, winner of the annual Betty Crocker Award, went on to become the recipient of the Minnesota Homemaker of Tomorrow title. A $1,500 scholarship and an all-expense paid trip to Washington, D. C., for her and Mrs. Erdahl brought the GV home ec department state-wide acclaim. Junior and senior girls had the option of either a year’s course on foods and family life or clothing. International entrees acquainted food students with Polynesian delicacies from exotic Hawaii and the Cossack cooking from Russia. Seamstresses zipped through several garments. including bathrobes, dresses, suits, cover-ups and T-shirts. The art of tailoring was also studied as students made new and remade old coats and jackets. Homo ec I girls and boy divided the year between sewing and cooking. Beginning with sewing, the homemakers learned the rudiments of stitching and the makeup of a sewing machine. 34 Learning how o devgn homes with the aid of drafting tables, architectural drafters find building a breeze. ▲ Eliminating brawn but not brains, Janet Hetman and Darlene Wettner. the first girls in the traditionally male Industrial arts class fiddle with their Lawn Boy.

Industrial Ed: Females Infiltrate Sex-typed Classes When e plea was released for lawnmowers needing overhauling. Mr. Gillogly was surprisingly greeted the next day by 30 deficient motors for the auto and power mechanics class. Besides overhauling lawnmowers. the advanced all-male group remodeled cor engines. Entering 14 model homes, the architectural drafting and home building class tool: first place in the state competition at the Stete Fair and the Broolcdale Industrial Arts Show. Using blueprints, the class made p'ans of their future homes and built and landscaped scale models. Three new drafting machines worth $210 wero part of tho reason room 207 was always locked. Eight field trips and two female students made the industrial arts I class distinctive. Students learned tho basics of welding, metal sculpting, woodworking, basic drafting and floor plans. 35 Music: Solo Teacher Leads Music Course Trio The concert band repertoire ranged from Broadway tunes to Shostakovich. Several songs featured specific sections, so trombonists, trumpeters and woodwind choirs stepped into the spotlight. Players attended sectionals, semiprivate lessons with Mr. Anderson, once a week. Dexterity in scales, chording and sight-reading was sought for in order to change bandsmen into musicians. Composed of ten members, the new music theory class arranged music, did individual projects, transposed answers into workbooks and painted sets for the musical. In November the small class journeyed to St. Catherine's and St. Thomas's to visit their music departments. Handling the Messiah . singing in musical mob scenes and combining with the band in concerts and assemblies, the choir kept busy in spite of fainting spells and strange horse noises. Mr. Anderson returned from a sabbatical leave at the U of M to teach all three courses. ▼ With a voice of ringing, mixed choir member Nan Pafmer and Iris 8«och eulogize Abram Brown.

Projects ranged from a mammoth pinlt hippopotamus to grotesque wi'-e-hanger sculptures to batiked print and plaid material. Fledgling artists were compelled to confine their projects to one specific area each quarter: «i!k-screening or block-printing, clay and pottery, jewelry and pointing. Art II and III enthusiasts, required to complete at least seven or eight projects, worked and developed ideas individually. Drowning in plastic cups. Mark. Sailer spent almost a year gluing a lighted globe together. The art room proved to be a good place to spend unscheduled time, so many high schoolers studied, worked on art projects and painted colorful butcher-paper advertisements there.

Planning the Valley Viewer cub edition with co-editors Cathy Gorlin and John Anderson Mr. Johnston (tresses the importance of beginning early and finishing early. Promised a chance to perform under the bright lights, drama students did sit-ups. tore apart flats, played guessing games and sawed boards to learn the various phases of the theater. In mid-Morch the two classes presented, directed, acted and produced five one-oct plays. An audience of seven received the first three plays, and 30 loyal parents and friends greeted the remaining two when a prearranged Red Cross audience failed to appear. By the fourth quarter, many of the hopeful actors had yet to recite more than five lines. Speoch classes learned the skills of writing and expressing themselves through a variety of addresses. Students acted as inanimate ob!ec s. Later they tried to convert fellow class members with persuasive speeches. Time in class was also devoted to interpretive readings of short stories and poems. Journalism students studied the basic rules of feature, news and interview writing, worked on publications and viewed foreign art films. After learning the various techniques of makeup. layout and pasteup, they staffed the May cub edition of the Valley Viewer, taking full advantage of the empty sixth hour typing room. 39 40 The times, they were a-changin1. Around the country student revolutionaries terrorized the Establishment, occupying even the U of M's Morrill Hall. They criticized the Vietnamese war, governmental apathy toward poverty and unemployment, hunger in Biafra and the draft. In the Valley, students walked for a Freedom from Hunger Foundation drive, watched a frightening film, The War Game , and contributed clothes to Appalachian children. They TPed before the snows came and sandbagged after they melted. When Universal filmed Airport in the Twin Cities, they extraed. Their personal liberties increased when the administration liberalized tress and dress codes. Kids crossed class lines as datetime found senior-sophomore, junior-freshman couples. The perpetual class pastime, money-making, involved everything from garage sales to kite derbies. Extracurricular activities, partying, eating and sleeping set the tempo of student life. During their time off, they studied. 41 Seniors: Individuals Supplant Cliques They were the first elementary school children to read with phonics. In fifth grade, a boy found a dead mouse in his milk bottle. Experimental team-teaching in the Meadow-brook gym necessitated cardboard dividers and the sixth grade year was characterized by the United Nations, a mock trial and push-ups. Seventh grade, tho Beatles and bangs-to-tho-nose changed kids to junior high swingers. An epidemic of note-passing a year later resulted in locker and purse checks. Penny-voting for Valentine royalty and a slavo sale raised lots of money for Red Cross. They—the class of '69—self-divided into cliques. The class entered the world of busses to away games, big kids ond Bat Gelle. Leadership was sloppy from tho start, although the clasv had many leaders. In tenth grade, the pool was finished, butterflies were chased and licenses were earned. As juniors, the class sponsored Ante-Tara-Bellum. the first prom with finger bowls, and the next year held a poorly-attended. poorly-planned Sadie. Their Christmas Dance had a Las Vegas theme. Enthusiastic and loud, they won the two-bit award twice, a stuffed dog and a pinata drum. Instead of yelling at one pepfest, most of tho class raised fists in a silent cheer. As seniors, they earned the skit award for their Laugh-In take-off. Senior girls sat chummily together at a long lunch table, and the Hulks were the only real clique, initiating fads ond slogans. Individualism grew and a few non-conformists started the OAF and an underground paper. Three students attended Girls and Boys State and an AFS winner went to Germany. A record three were National Merit Scholarship winners. GV entered the state spotlight with first and second-place swimmers, a track star and a Betty Crocker State Homemaker. During commencement, the class presented deporting Mr. Saunders with a placque and ovation. Five trees, the class gift, were planted behind tho school.

The first annual Benjamin Franklin Memorial Kite Flying Derby and a Kool-Aid stand were representative of the class's imagination. Buttons. bookcovers. class pins, a soc-hop. car washes, a paper drive and concessions provided the needed boost for their treasury. Feminine intuition and skill dictated the juniors' year, as four girl officers and two prom co-chairwomen were elected. Two-thirds of the A-squad cheerleaders were juniors. Scholastically high, so many juniors met NHS's 3.4 GPA requirement that there was talk of removing or raising the maximum number of senior members allowed. For the second year in a row. a student designed the Homecoming button. Flowers naming the couples who came wallpapered the cafetorium wall for the Homecoming Royale. The class of 70 failed to reserve the Lafayette Club for the Prom during the summer and were forced to look elsewhere.

Sophomores: Bill Blonigan I eila Bloomquist Merry Bohn Sharon Buffington The 121 sophomores entered the bedlam of moneymaking, academic and extracurricular activities. Concluding that an expensive, well-known band and publicity posters paporing the walls would bring countless couples to the Sno-dance, they contracted the Metropolitan Soul. Only two hours before the dance's start they learned that their band had left the city. Problems plagued the class as they were forced to hire o cheaper band, forgot to add ginger ale to the punch and lost $45 on the dance.

At best, they involved themselves and became proficient in school and extracurricular activities. At worst, they car-ried the stench of cigarette smoko out of the lavatories and giggled and whispered obnoxiously during pepfests. Opinions about the freshmen wore often negative. Reputedly having vandalized the Middle School lavatories the previous year, the class entered high school with a bad reputation. They were accused of abusing unscheduled free time and the dress code. Two of them collaborated to cause a bomb scare. There were seme positive aspects, however: freshmen for the first time played parts in the drama productions, and one ninth-grader talked his way into the regional declamation contest. With 133 members, it was the largest class in GV history. They, os all freshmen before them, had a significantly minor role in the high school. They had one party and sponsored no other activities, except for two films sponsored by the freshman Hi-Y. ▼ Sue McHonry -ooches info a bog whilo doing homework in room 103.

After the 3:10 bell rang—and sometimes before, during lunchtime and study halls—extracurricular activities began. Different speakers, including a John Bircher at a TAR-YDFL conclave, talked. The NHS set records for short meetings. The Hi-Ys found it all right to meet after dark, and nighttime didn't stop other clubs either. FTA square danced for Headstart funds. Movies made money on evening audiences. Clubs didn't stay in GV at all times. The art club explored Chicago, Girl Scouts trained to St. Louis, ski bums schussed around and der Deutsche Verein dined in Stillwater. 77 Student Council: Student Conduct Clothes Debated Unplugged ice cream machines, lost keys, friendly and unfriendly amendments and important decisions concerning student appearance occupied the '68-'69 Student Council. Boys won the blue jeans and sideburns war with the recommendation of the council. A long debate found the group upholding the Laughing Gravy's right to bo published and distributed, thereby nearly alienating Mr. Saunders. Student Council acted on issues of a greater scope, sponsoring a clothing drive for Appalachia. urging school participation in the Walk for Development and showing The War Game. Conflicts arose when Gene Berg's former constituents petitioned for his impeachmont. The secretary's minutes were labelled inappropriate by a few students because they were sometimes humorous. Somo council members met the challenge by working on homework during meetings. The Traffic Safety Council was discontinued. Organized to hash over the problems of unscheduled time, the Rules Committee met twice, while a Throne Committee tried to find alternatives to renting expensive chairs for royalty.

Band: Concerted Efforts Merit Three Stars Though lackinq officers and a council until spring, talent triumphed as the concert band was awarded three stars at the MVC contest. Though this superior rating entitled the group to compete on a state levol. the challenge was unmet when four bandsmen couldn't attend. Following tradition, the band entertained half-time crowds at home football games, marching into formations while providing appropriate music. Two pom-pom girls were a wolcome addition. Other annual activities included boostinq basketball games and playing at pepfests. The band shared the spotlight with the mixed choir in the Thanksgiving concert. The band presented a serious Christmas concert during the holiday season and ended the year with an art show performance. Twenty GV bandsmen donated three practice nights to participate in a trio of all-con-feronce select band concerts. They comprised one-fourth of the group. Another small group from within the band formed the pit orchestra for the Music Man.

Thinking they had 50 pages due for the first deadline. they completed 19 before realizing that only 16 had to bo sent in. After finishing a 50 page second deadline at 11:00 Sunday night, the quadr-editors spent an extra half-hour making jubilant signs. The Viking editorial staff created their own style by developing a five-column, modified mosaic layout, adding cut-out pictures to division pages and combining the sports and special events sections into three seasonal divisions to fit their time theme. More money was necessary to pay for eight extra pages and cover rising costs, so the Big Four organized and published a student directory. Early bird subscribers received the cheapest Viking when prices were staggered. The idea of including a record with the yearbook clayed itself out because of lack of tapes and money. Modestly realizing that no reader would be able to catch all the puns and nuances of meaning in their book, a commentary was planned for distribution with the Viking.

Viewer, Photography: Ten Issues Given to Students Free Working amid McDonald's debris and yearbook dummy sheets, the paper people laid out. sent in and pastod up ten issues of the Valley Viewer. Papers were handed out free to all students as the school board obligingly budgeted $800 for printing costs. Fewer student polls, more columnists and more issues distinguished the '68-'69 Viewer. The six-member editorial board encountered difficulties with scissor-happy journalism students and reporters who refused to type their own stories. Controversial political and philosophical discussions often highlighted the after school and evening work sessions. Experienced Fred Serr and two of the yearbook editors, prepared only by a summer course on scientific photography, took up the cameras and enlargers for the Viewer. Viking and Golden Rule. So many supplies were used up that the photography fund ran out of money. A new Honeywell camera with telephoto made shooting sports easier, while hours of practice and care eliminated such mistakes as missing nearly all the Homecoming pictures due to a misloaded roll, losing a $4.50 lens cover and printing flat pictures. 89 ► Mr. King, a third Trade teacher tells of -pedal inner-city school problems. ▼ FTA—Front row; President Margot Johnson, vice-president Gwen Amundson.

' Resolved: the United States should establish a system of compulsory service by all citizens. The group divided into two teams, in defense and opposition of the resolution. After six rounds the team boasted a 3-3 record, considerably better than their 0-6 '68 score. The four agreed that this type of debating helped them to think quickly in an organized manner and furthered their rudiments of rhetorical ability. Five faithful students participated in declamation, practicing after school with Mrs. Keko-liouros and going to area schools for contests. Bussing to the sub-district speech contest at Mound in a Volkswagen bus. the entire group qualified to go on to the District 18 speech competition.

Weather Speculators of America. Women for Sexual Amnesty. War on Slovenly Aphids. But at GVHS there was but one so-lettered group, the school's only all-service club, the Water Safety Assistants. Not limiting themselves to assisting, the 20 swimmers took on classes of grade school thrashers, splashers and bobbers. Experience and personal judgment was their immediate superior when children refused to submerge or when brave five-year-olds fell off the beard. Bill Miller, pool director and WSA advisor. trained his red-suited aides in the arts of water locomotion and safety. Donating Saturday mornings to the Learn-fo-Swim Program, the WSA learned by oxpori-. mentation the minimum amount of sleep needed to stay alert enough to rescue sinking toddlers. During study halls, the future beach-ers of America taught classes of Middle Schoolers, caught up on pool paperwork and cleaned up the pool area.

Kids went back to school, picked up the books and settled down to studying. But welcome bits of social activity (as if classes weren't sometimes social) lightened any drudgery there was in school. Homecoming speeded the tempo of events for a week, and Sadie and two evenings of four one-act plays scattered corn and culture into the routine. The High School Bowl team was, for the second year in a row, the victim of a scoring error. There were football games, of which the Vikings won four out of six for a second-place tie in the conference. From time to time there were soc-hops after the games. Cross country had its first coached season. Because it was time for all good men to come to the aid of their country with the ballot, Golden Valley citizens visited the voting machines in the high school foyer on Nov. 5. 107 Homecoming: GV Husks Huskies, Harvests Posters Another royol couple was crowned and another Homecoming climoxed.

Psychedelic green, yellow, red and blue spotlights bobbed over the gym during the coronation assembly. Seniors, showing thoir versatility. presented a skit whose format was liberally borrowed from Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In. A poster contest, newly initiated into homecoming procedure, allowed classes and clubs to show off their ingenuity. Contributing two-thirds of all entered posters. German Club secured first place. Spurred on by the crowd, the Vikings harnessed the Huskies with a 14-6 triumph over St. Anthony. The band lit up halftime with a torchlight parade. After the game. Mr. Hag-berg and twenty senior boys were politely booted out of McDonald's for singing, among other things. My Little Margie to their queen.

With help from the golden toe of John Dresser end the bull-stampeding of Erik Nord-ley, tho Vikos finished the '68 season successfully. Footboll season '68 was noted for its close competition and action-packed games. In a non-conference game with Northfield the Vikes finished the first half trailing by a score of 13-0. Thon. in the second half. GV came back with three touchdowns to win the game 20-13. However, the real excitement didn't start until the Vikos capped their first triumph over Orono in 8 years. With less than a minute left to play the score was tied 6-6. John Dresser, with a seasonal record of 12 completions out of 13 conversions attempted, stepped forward and smashed over his most important point of the season to win the Orono game 7-6. GV also had an especially happy homecoming with a 14-6 victory over St. Anthony. Colin Anderson, Erik Nordley and Mark Sal-zer were awarded the MVC all-conference presentation. Erik Nordley received the most valuable player trophy. The defensive champion was Mark Salzer with 156 points, and his runner-up was Colin Anderson with 154 points. The team made up for all its mickeymousing by presenting Coach Benepo with an embroidered Mouseketeer hat at a pepfest. Benepe concluded, You can't say it wasn't a year without surprises.

Cross Country: Coach Obtained, Ground Covered For a year, Mark Hume had tried to get up enough enthusiasm for a cross country team. In 1967, Tim Graca came to Golden Valley, and. although it is hard to drum up another sport in a small school, the two began recruiting. A few boys ran in meets, but the resemblance to a real team was not very good. There was no coach, no real organization and no one knew much about the sport. Finally, in the fall of 1968, one could see uniformed GV harriers taking laps around Lake Calhoun. There was also a coach, Mr. Robert O'Hara. The actual season, as much as had been hoped for, fell short, with the greatest disappointments at the district meet. Those who participated never saw a cheerleader nor more than one spectator at a meet. Their wins were consistently second place, and only three lettered: Tim Graca. Mark Hume and Tom Coyne. But there were accomplishments not reported on the scoreboard. An entirely new sport, through the enthusiasm of those who knew and liked it, had been formed.

Three of the plays were serious performances, involving death, the callousness of mankind or the bitterness of losing a love. Disappearance of some vital props before a performance added to the strain of stage fright. Over-optimistic seniors hand-made 800 programs and were left holding 500 of them.

Neither was there any time off when the Hong Kong flu forced the absentee rate up to 20% just before Christmas. The seniors, by playing their cards right and keeping the ante low, made money on a Christmas dance with a Las Vegas theme. The Sno-Week timetable was switched around so that the coronation preceded other activities. Donkey basketball replaced the WDGY Wonders and the varsity team went into a tense three-minute overtime during the Orono game. Mark Salzer wrestled in the regionals. With the stroke of good fortune and Jon Yeager churning the 100 yd. butterfly in 55.7, the swimmers took fourth in the state. The past was re-staged in a one-act play about the 1930's and in a musical of 1912 in River City, Iowa. 117 Christmas Dance: '69ers Gamble on Las Vegas Theme Casino Royale. borrowed from the title of a James Bond thriller, was described by many critics as not exactly the most exciting dance I’ve ever been to at GV! The publicity committee. chairman unknown, started advertising only a week before the Saturday dance date. When it became evident that the tickets were not selling, It's Not Too Late—Ask a Date signs were placed in boys’ lavatories on Friday afternoon. Casino Royale seemingly had an activity for everybody: talking, dancing, gambling or gawking at semi-nude pictures of senior girls (baby pictures, of course). Each couple received $1500 after purchasing their traditional red and green tickets. A minor furor was reported as winning wizards tried to exchange the Santa Claus bills for bills with portraits of Washington. Lincoln. Hamilton and Jackson. After much deliberation, senior class officers resolved to hire the Citadel, a blasting boisterous band of young musicians. The refreshment committeo. chairman unknown, was replaced by two seniors who found a case of pop and began to sell it. Undaunted by low attendance, last minute planning and lack of organization, the senior class scrooged through with a cool $25.

Tryouts were abandoned this year as Mr. Huble chose four girls to participate in the One-Act Play Contest. Prior to a pre-contest showing on Friday afternoon. Leslie Johnson, one of the actresses, was taken to the hospital following a traffic accident. Gwen Kastor. student director, substituted both in the afterschool performance and the contest.

Ample Activities Snow In Valley Housebroken donkeys, a single-entry snow sculpture contest, an attendantless dance and a week brimful of activities: this was GV's second annual Sno-Week. Launching the week of winter frolic was the crowning of the Sno-royalty. A six-senior court was a major difference from the previous year's all-school representation. An innovation, and a big change from the WDGY game, was donkey basketball. Students, both boys and girls, played basketball and raced while atop the rubborsolod beasts. Other Snc-Week festivities included a ski trip to Quadna Mt.. a 6:30 a.m. breakfast at Uncle John's, skating, a piano-smashing spree and both a dress-up and casual day. Sno-at-tendant Dave Altman returned from the toboggan party with a mild concussion. NHS induction was the featured activity on dress-up day. The sophomore-sponsored Sno-Valentine Dance, endangered when the band disappeared, went on with the hurriedly located and slightly ill Youngsters. Chaos was averted when unauthorized seniors substituted for truant attendants.

Basketball: Expectations High, Finish Low Getting the victories whon they most needed them, the Viking cagers managed to come through a fair season in high spirits. The team started off by winning its first two conference games. In one with Eden Prairie. the Vikes pulled off a greot come-from-be-hind effort: in just the last few minutes of the game the team caught up from 11 points behind and went on to win 77-71. The Vikes then went into a losing slump, but just when things looked their worst they squeaked out a 61-56 thriller over Buffalo. The team then collected two more victories against Edon Prairie and Waconia to keep their moralo braced for a series of disappointing defeats, including one heartbreaking overtime with Orono, 58-55. However, during that series the Vikes did have one triumph over Shakopee which kept hopes optimistic until the end of the season. Craig Bundlie was the team's top rebounder with a total of 233 and also made 45 percent of his field goal attempts. Dick Donnelly, the other top shooter, completed 55 percent of his free throws. Dick and captain Mark Rholl wore named all-conference players. Other top players included John Adolfson, Roger Kolarich and Erik Nordley.

Wrestling: Pounds Dropped, 2nd Place Gained With their own squad of cheerleaders, a new coach and an experienced team, the grapplers finished the season with a 6-2 record, good enough for a second place tie in the MVC. Due to the winning season, the home matches were enthusiastically attended. Under the direction of Coach Stan Hansen, who took over for Harold Flolid while on sabbatical leave, the Vikcs ran. sweated and starved off as much as 40 pounds apiece. At daily practices, the team members wrestled each other and developed new abilities, holds and muscles. Matmen made a respectable showing at the Minnesota Valley Conference Tournamont as Mark Salrer and Dave Behline placed first in their divisions. Also finishing high were John Mariucci, second; Mike Stephenson, third and Bob Riggs and Colin Anderson, fourth. The only Valley man to succeed in the rough District 18 competition was Mark Salzer, where he won first place in the 175-pound class. Then Mark represented the brown and gold in the Regional Tournament, but was eliminated in the first round. The B-squad. coached by Jerry Bull, had a season so unsuccessful that no one could recall the win-loss record. Often called to sub for absent varsity wrestlers were Scott Carlson.

Other high finishers were Gary McAdam, second in the individual medley: Dan Myers, sixth in the breaststroke: T. R. Lundquist. seventh in the 400 yd. freestyle and Gary Hvass, tenth in the 200 yd. freestyle. The relays placed second and seventh. Directed by coach Bill Miller, the swimmers kicked and stroked up to eight miles a day. Rigid weight-lifting and diet programs were equally important. The improvement of the eighth and ninth graders, the core of the team, boosted the swimmers to their high dual meet rating. Fourth place in the District 18 finals and first in the Senior Men's AAU Championship were two added achievements of the season. Losing only to perennial-champ Edina, the water-boys compiled a 15-1 season record. Toppling such giants as Cooper, Kennedy and Robbinsdale, the Vikes overcame the obstacles of youth and size. The excitement of the meets affected even Mr. Miller, who broke his clipboard over Andy Weisberg’s head during tho Highland Park meet. ►SWIM TEAM—Front row: Paul Myers. Scott Tomorasson.

Baseball and golf squads won MVC trophies and the tennis team had its first conference game. Colin Anderson put the shot over 60 feet for the first time in Minnesota history. Prom, with a once-upon-a-time Came-lot theme, attracted 60% of the seniors. An I 8th century comedy was updated for modern times. A broken water pump resulted in a day-long vacation. A day later, school was again temporarily evacuated for a time-bomb scare. The weather warmed just in time, so commencement took place on the football field. Mortar boards were exchanged for motor boats when 75 grads left for Madden's. Miscellaneous I: d„, allowed hi Bad Pump, Bomb Provide Free Time A broken pump and resulting overflowing toilets, drinking fountain water that shot to the ceiling and dry taps in the kitchen forced the administration to close school for a day.

A squad of firemen and police failed to uncover any explosives after almost an hour search through the school. A draft panel was presented for all junior and senior boys.

German Club Operetta: Operetta Delayed, Old Plot Changed The German Club, including students from five levels of German classes, fractured The Wizard of Oz for its second operetta. Deviating from the original Judy Garland plot, the writers had Dorothy stabbed by a power-hungry wizard, bunny boots for ruby slippers, a cowardly lion with bad breath and a surprise appearance by Casper, the friendly ghost. Old Music Man flats, paper flowers, a live rainbow, plants from the foyer and confiscated sixth grade partitions and tables comprised the minimal scenery. Despite such adverse conditions as boisterous Boy Scout meetings and men’s volleyball games in the practice area, a heroine with strep throat and lost scripts and memories, the play was finally shown a week late to a large, enthusiastic audience. Not expecting to moke a profit, the club's treasury swelled $27. Although a German ploy. Der Wizard was understood by the spectators because of the movies familiarity and pig-Deutsch diction. A grateful Dorothy presented writer-director-narrators Margie Hogan and Janice Wcitz with German-colored red. yellow and black corsages after the one-night stand. Spring Play: 'Italian Straw Hat' Reshaped, Put On GV's version of ' An Italian Straw Hat , updated from horse-and-carriage times, was amended with several kissing scenes and an appearance of the wedding party between acts. A fight sequence with lights flashing on and off and a shaving cream pie were also written in. Some changes were cast-instigated: one actor tore off an actress's fall in the fight scone. Rehearsals went badly, and lead Steve Witebsky finally stayed home from school to learn his lines. Luckily, most problems during the three performances wore minor. A lamppost was insufficient to catch the straw hat. so Gary Herstein was silvered and substituted as a statue holding a flag. The hat failed to alight on Saturday, so he picked it up and plopped it on the flagpole himself. One niqht he visited Bridgeman’s in makeup.

Short speeches of welcome and thank you preceded and followed the steak dinner. Senior flashback slides and movies were accompanied by sound effects and dialogue.

Beginning the season with two non-conference losses, the Vikes rallied and triumphed over Shakopee and Buffalo. On May 12. the crusaders conquered Waconia to share the MVC crown with Shakopee's Indians. The team celebrated by tossing Coach Lockwood in the pool. Irate, cussing parents and overly-confident opponents were interrupted by rain in the middle of the district bout. Play was resumed the following day and the Vikes fell to St. Louis Pork's Orioles by a score of 13-1. John Hass, Steve Dritsas. Mark Lybeck and Tom Cook were voted all-conference recognition. Mark was also chosen most valuable player by his teammates. The B-squad. under the direction of coach John Sandberg, adequately supported the varsity and finished the year with a 4-3 record.

The GV Ice Center donated two hours (I to 3 a.m.) of free skates and skating to the graduating class. Some kids, hung up on gravestones and spiked fences, went to a cemetery.

Pop and reception punch flowed freely as the two busses passed the small towns. They arrived at 1:30 a.m., and after their hotdoa-and-beans snack, stuffed luggage in their rooms. A few boys ran in the ice-cold lake and four friends slept on the roof. Swimming, boating, fishing and tennis were enjoyed by the grads. A 130-degree sauna, whirlpool and lake slide provided thrills and chills. Fifty-two prizes, redeemed from stamp books, were won at bingo. Popcorn kernels covered spaces as some tried to manipulate four or five cards. On their last night together, seniors built a beach bonfire, told ghost stories and stole pie crusts from the kitchen to make pies. A quiet trip brought the alumni home. 147 Beginning the ad campaign in July, ad managers and editors worked together to pay the cost of 500 Vikings with eight additional pages. Raising ad prices and book payments helped cover the about $4000 printing fee. Sore feet, sore fingers and sore-heads were encountered time and again as salesmen visited and called three-fourths of the Valley's merchants. The sellers found that small businesses (especially those connected with District 275 families) were more willing to buy ads than large chain companies, since the latter oftentimes needed permission from their national offices. Ad pictures were taken by Ann Sargent at all times of the day and in all sorts of places. Working into the summer, Jane Sheehy accomplished the time-consuming job of posting bills and collecting money.
