HECTOR COMMUNITY SCHOOLS - HECTOR, MINNESOTA Mr. DELBERT JONES We, the class of '57 dedicate this yearbook to our class advisors, Mr. Delbert Jones and Mr. Charles Roebke. They devoted much of their time for the benefit of our class projects. Through their combined efforts our class trip became a reality. For these and for many of the other accomplishments throughout the year, we are very grateful to Mr. Jones and Mr. Roepke. 2 Mr. CHARLES ROEPKE Congratulations to you, the graduating class of 1957. I sincerely hope each of you realize, to a great extent the full- filment of your ambitions and dreams. It has been your privilege the past years to rear the benefits of rich heritage. The foundations of your house as a fu- ture citizen have been laid during these past twelve years. You must build from here. Utilize what you have leamed to the best of your ability. Your tomorrows will include disap- pointments and failures but also mo- ments of accomplishments and satisfac- tions. May each of you experience the satisfacrions and rewards that result from honest and sincere effort. O I 0 SCHOOL BOARD - George Schmidt, Edward, L. Johnson, Reinhold Foesch, Roger Swanson, Supt. H. A. Schmidt, Dr. C. A. Anderson, Loren Va.nderVoort. 3 To the graduating class of 1957 we say, congratulations and we wish you have much success in the future. I hope that you have gotten more out of your twelve years in school than a mere ac- cumulation of facts. It is of vital con- cem to you that you have leamed the importance of fair play and that you have leamed to defend and live by the principles that you know are right. It is important that you have learned to be honest with your fellow citizens but, most of all, that you be honest with yourself. If you have learned these things, then much success will be yours.

Hector's 19 game winning streak which extended over a period of three years, was finally ended by the Fairfax Eagles. The 20 to 0 loss opened the season for the youthful Bulldogs. The following week, the Bulldogs bowed again, this time to the Panthers of Bird Island. The next game was with their old adversary Buffalo Lake, who became Hector's first victims of the season, losing to the Bulldogs 12 to 6. After a loss to a strong Stewart team, the Bulldogs swamped Renville 33 to 6 for a homecoming win. Following a heartbreaking '7 to 6 loss to the Danube Hawks, the boys from Hector ended the season in a blaze by toppling Sacred Heart 36 to 6 and blanking Brownton 26 to 0. This was good enough to land the Bulldogs a first division berth in the 212 Conference. Hector had another year of tuming out outstanding players when Gene Torbert and Norman Novotny were placed on the All-Conference Team. 20 Who 's Next Jerome Carlson ALL CONFERENCE: Norman Novotny and Gene Harold Swanson Allan Kirgiss Torbett. ?ooZJ4llS S HHS 0 Fairfax O Bird Island 0 Stewart 12 Buffalo Lake 6 Danube 33 Renville 26 Brownton 36 Sacred Heart OPP 20 14 18 6 '7 6 0 6 Ted Nelson Larry Carlson Bob Novotny W Curt Halverson, Forward BA S RE K E V 1' I :QL E B E A W MEL Mt L K V Ted Nelson, Center The Bulldogs basketball team had a very impressive year on the hardwoods. After a fast start, winning six of the first seven games, they went into a slight slump win- ning only two out of the next four. To climax the remaining games Hector won the next five and lost the last two games to Brownton and Olivia. In the district toumament the bulldogs were seeded sixth, but soon proved the odds- makers wrong by beating third seeded Hutchinson very decisively as Jeff Johnson showed a spectacular display of shootingg hitting for eleven buckets and twenty-two points. In semi-final play the underated Bulldogs scored an exciting 64-61 victory over Norwood Central. The ever improving Bulldogs and the consistent play of Olivia proved to be quite a contest in the District 12 finals. As the game progressed Hector failed in its attempt to capture the coveted District 12 crown and lost 69-52. Thus ending a very successful season for the Bulldogs.
