Echoes of 1946 Published by the SENIOR CLASS OF HOPKINS HIGH SCHOOL Sylvia Swanson, Hrice MacQueen -Editors Len Korbel - - Advertising Manager Donn Esciicr - - Circulation Manager Cam. Towley...........Adviser FOREWORD . . . we, the staff of the 1946 Echoes, present a pictorial review of Hopkins High School drama which we call life.” In trying to truly reflect a year of school life, we hope these pages and the underlying spirit will forge a connecting link with the happiest days of schoolhood. Dedication AS A memorial to a classmate, co-worker, friend, and all-around good fellow, we sincerely dedicate our 1946 Echoes to Jack Owens. The Staff All the world’s a stage nd all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances And one man in his time plays many parts . . . Our school is our stage. The faculty and students the players; Tis full of action the day long. The parts are many and varied. 'Tis a play we all love And hate much to leave. But its record is here For posterity.

The 136 frosh from Glen Lake, Burwell, Oak Knoll, Clear Springs and, of course, Hopkins, all took Eng--lish and general science. The one memory of general science which will probably always stick in their minds took place the day Miss Oberg had everyone line up and hold hands while she turned the handle of her little hand generator. The freshmen had their first experience in politics when they elected Ed Prochas-ka president, and Sylvia Swanson secretary-treasurer. Not to be outdone _by previous classes they tried their hand at play acting for the benefit of the Junior Red Cross. Finishing up a year ACTION which passed all too quickly, was the annual picnic at Excelsior. T he next fall the 112 remaining members of the class of 1946 changed buildings. In the senior high they soon found out what the term “underclassmen means. Chuck Hall reigned as sophomore class president and strangely enough the class had very few meetings. That was the year when HHS got its new loyalty song and the mixed chorus was started. The soph athletes, who began to take their places alongside the upperclass let-termcn on field and floor, showed promise. The climax of the year was (in their estimation, as good as the prom) the sophomore class party which set a record for the number of cokes guzzled. Left to right . . .

This time, they f to climb two flights of steps to get to the place they would call home for the next two years. No sooner had they settled down than Miss Ludwig called for tryouts for the junior class play, Never 1 x Late, which, like every thing else attempted by this class, was a huge success. 'I his year the juniors were not only well represented in athletics, hut also on the cheering squad—all six cheerleaders were juniors. History-making events continued to happen — the Tri-Y was founded and the Hi-Y started its scholarship. Chuck Hall served his second term as president. School that year wasn’t all study. In connection with their American history the juniors made a trip to the Capitol. Using the money earned from the class play the juniors gave the seniors a prom, the best ever given, they thought. The theme was Davy Jones Locker (mermaids and fish were floating around for weeks afterward). Finally in the fall of l‘M5, they reached the senior high school. The S( seniors missed the fourteen meml ers of their class who w e r e away doing .t heir duty for Uncle Sam. The Hall administration was re-elected to serve a third term. Even before senior privileges were gotten used to, the class was off on another trip. This time to Faribault and St. Peter, to visit the homes for the blind, the deaf, and the insane. The athletes who had shown such promise a couple of years back made Coach’s dreams come true by winning Lake Conference championships in both basketball and football. Under the capable direction of Mrs. Peterson the seniors gave Sing for Your Supper for their class play. No sooner was the “stardust” prom over than graduation was upon the veteran students, who such a short time before had entered good old HHS as green frosh. Soon they will take their places in the world with high school days just a memory—never to be forgotten. Left to right . . . The Pauly slaters—Kay and Chnr . . Jean Nordqulat—cute Isn't she. Donn? .

Warriors share in 1945 championship BY OBSERVING the final standings for the 1945 Lake Conference football season, it can be readily seen that the Warriors under Coach Maetzold had a successful season in taking a share in the championship with St. Louis Park. This is the fifth straight year they have won it, and the tenth in the 14 years Mr. Maetzold has been here. Seven of these 10 championships have been undisputed. 24-7—With Dick Hilsen as captain and leader, the Warriors moved into their first encounter, a practice game with Chaska. Led by halfback Neal Abraham and fullback Doug Arndt they trounced the Valley team 24-7. Though not very impressive looking in the opener, the team gained valuable experience. 7-6—The Conference schedule got under way September 21, as the high-flying Robins from Robbinsdale invaded the home field. Dick Hilsen proved to be the winning factor in the Warriors’ victory, as he placekickcd the deciding point. After Robbinsdale fumbled on their own 30 yard line in the second period, Hopkins tcx)k advantage of the break and drove to the seven yard line where Abraham raced over for the score. The Robins’ score came in the third period. 26-0—On a pretty, crisp, Friday evening, September 28, the Excelsior Blue Jays entertained the locals, but they were turned back to the tune of 26-0. Doug Arndt and Neal Abraham each scored twice to pace the Warriors, but Gerry Slavin, playing equally as well, had two scores called back because of penalties. A bright spot was the improvement of Owens and Empanger in the line on defense, and Culshaw and Slavin in the backficld. The reserves got a good chance to gain experience. 13-0—Neal Abraham scored both of Hopkins' touchdowns against U High, as the Warriors won on their own field 13-0, October 5. U High had a good line and a rugged back field, but actually were outplayed more than the score indicated. Hilsen, Hall, Luther, Myhr, and Larson all showed vast improvement in fundamentals to help mould a team victory. The second half was scoreless, but a new passing combination Matteson to McQueen clicked twice in the last im Echoes — 21 BASEBALL— Bottom row. left to rlKht: H Dvorak. D. Wledman. C. Jurlsch. N.

As there are only four seniors on the team, the outlook for next year is promising too. The l est teams in the conference at the present, kxik to lx Kobbinsdalc and Wayzata. The first game was with Wayzata April 30. Football . . . continued two minutes. Reminiscing in the locker room after the game it was discovered that only seven plays had been used all evening. 0-0—The highlight game of the season was of course, the Hopkins-St. Louis Park tangle on October 12, at Park before an overflowing crowd of 3,500. The game itself was thrilling from start to finish, but nobody could get the ball into the cherished land. Hopkins completely outplayed Park on offense, as they piled up 12 first downs to Park’s two. The Warriors were always threatening and actually had two touchdowns called back. Neal Abraham, alias the Mighty Mite gathered in the opening kick-off of the second half on his own goal line and with Owens, Arndt, anti Slavin cutting down defenders right and left, raced down the sideline 100 yards to score, only to have referee Ferrill rule that he stepped out of bounds on his own 35 yard line. This play will lx disputed many times as to whether Neal actually did step out of bounds or not. Tschimpcrle, Owens, Empanger, and Hilsen sparked the defense while Abraham and Arndt continued their fine offensive play. 20-0—Wayzata proved tough in the homecoming game, but not tough c n o ugh. Dave Rock and Junior Joswick were Wayzata’s spark with their tricky passing and running which fooled the Hopkins secondary many a time. Neal Abraham scored two touchdowns in the first half on short runs. McQueen and Arndt converted the extra points. The game see-sawed in the second half, and Tom Matteson, Abraham's understudy, finally scored in two plays from the Trojan’s ten in the last period. Owens was a standout on defense again along with Slavin, Empanger, Hall, Tschimpcrle, and Hilsen. Another prime factor was the splendid blocking by Arndt, Culshaw, and Slavin. 35-7—Mr. Maetzold’s superb coaching held the spot-light in the final game at Mound, October 25. He kept the team together to pull an overwhelming victory over Mound, who had been a darkhorse all year. Hopkins led 14-6 at half-time in what appeared as anybody’s ball game. Cxxtch Maetzold’s fiery pep talk between periods must have done the trick, because the Purple really cut loose and ran wild. Other honors besides being champions were shared by Hopkins. Neal Abraham won the individual with 60 points, ens, Warren I and Neal Abral picked for the ference team at left end, left tackle, and left halfback, respectively. The alternate team included Dick Hilsen and Clyde Tschimpcrle. 24 - 1946 Echoes BASKETBALL—Front row. left to right (Bitting): R. Wrase. C. Tschlmperle. D. Arndt. B. MacQueen. W. Empanger. G. Slavin.

Warriors won another conference title TPHE 1945-1946 basketball season started out looking like one of the leanest basketball years Hopkins would have, but the Purple came through in traditional style. Spirit and drive substituted for height and polish. The team opened with hut one regular, Bruce McQueen. Running with McQueen were, Doug Arndt at the other forward, Warren Empangcr at center, and Gerry Slavin and Clyde Tschim-perle at guards. The Warriors dropped their opener to Gill and company by a 33 to 27 score. The rest of league then decided to for about Hopkins, a fact ch proved to be a mistake. )kins turned in one of the defensive games of the year in their next game, holding U High to one field goal in the first half. The final count was 27-17 in favor of the Warriors. The Warriors, in the next game, showed what drive can do by shellacking the prcscason favorite. Park, 41 to 29. The Hopkins victory was more impressive than the score indicates. The game also held other highlights; it wasn't Mr. Maetzold at the helm but the Purple was piloted by Mr. Stenback who had taken over during Coach Mactzold’s absence; Bruce McQueen dropped off his free throw record by missing his 22nd attempt—Boo, in the first three games had made 21 straight. Now, just for the sake of mixing it up it seems, Hopkins and Park dumped the two undefeated teams, Mound and Robbinsdalc. The Purple of Hopkins instead of being underdogs had turned into title contenders. Another factor had entered into the focus—Hopkins had a gcxnl sixth man in Bob Wrase, who could score well when called upon. To wind up the '45 part of the 45-46 season, the Warriors played a bang up team game while defeating Excelsior 35-31. McQueen, Arndt and 1946 Echoes — 25 Basketball . . . continued Empanger scared 11, 10, and 9 resjxctively for well balanced scoring. During Christmas vacation Hopkins got in a non-league tilt with Arlington. The Arlington five was somewhat late after bus trouble but the game was played with the Warriors coming out on top 46-24. Resuming conference activities the Purple met Wayzata and took them into camp 42-27. Then alter a week’s rest the Warrior lads met in quick succession, Robbinsdale, U High and St. Louis Park—three tough games in a row. I he Robins had the Warriors’ number and for the second time dropped the Warriors by a score of 44-23. Hopkins then took U High 62-33 before meeting Park for the title game. Hopkins again had the old drive and dumped the favored Parkers 33-23, outplaying, out-scoring, out-jumping, and out-fighting the Orioles all the way. The Warriors then had to take three to have a tie in the title and that’s just what they did, taking Mound 46-44, Excelsior 47-44 and Wayzata on homecoming night 52-27. The Warriors had again taken a share in a Lake Conference title and ended a job well done. Bruce McQueen and Warren Empanger made the All-Conference team at forward and center. The Warriors dropped their first game in the sub-district to U High but still had a fine season and one that will be long remembered for its aggressive and spirited play. Track team defending district title this year The Warriors arc again in good position to defend their District title and Mound Relays first place as the outl x k is very promising for the coming track season. In the first duel meet at U. High they won 7s 2 to 29, paced by Neal Abraham who won five first places. The weight department is filled by Slavin, Luther, Miller and Empanger. The loss of Paul Kelley, Vern Korsmo, and Japh Kakach will be sorely felt in this division. Doug Arndt, Cierry Slavin, Ray Larsen, Neal Abraham, Ronald Luther, Tom Matteson and Jorgen Nelson are the returning veterans but the squad will Ik rounded out with Pete Plankers, Sheryl Slyce, Jack Thciss, Warren Empanger and Harvey Dvorak. When some bad luck struck the team in the Regional last year they hail to lx content with second place, but they will l e working hard this year to put a few boys in the state.

The purposes of the club arc to aid the teachers in all forms of help which they request; to work in the office and library; to assist in promoting community activities; to assist students in studies and extra-curricular activities. President of the club is Aileen Olson. Since the publication of its first issue in 1930, the Hi-Cricr, monthly newspaper of Hopkins high school, has been bringing to the students an accurate, interesting account of student life and activities. Editor-in-chief this year is Bill Gardner. The advisers for the Hi-Cricr arc Mr. Zipoy and Mr. Towley. This is the ninth consecutive edition of the Echoes, a hook of Hopkins school life, put out each year by the seniors. The 1945-1946 annual was compiled by a group of hard-working students who have done all in their power to make it a success. Sylvia Swanson and Bruce MacQueen are the co-editors and Donn Eschcr and Len Korbel the circulation and advertising managers.

Miss Walsh is the club adviser. After an absence of a year the German Club was reorganized last year under the direction of Miss Ludwig. The club furthers the study of German by speaking the language at meetings and studying cultural contributions. The Girls Athletic Association (GAA) under the direction of Mrs. Scofield, has as its object the furthering of girls’ interests in athletics and promoting good health and sportsmanship. The association is now in its tenth year at Hopkins and shows an increase in membership each year. The Future Farmers of America (FFA) is the national organization of farm boys studying vocational agriculture in the public high A schools throughout the United States. The organization was founded in 1928, and the motto is “Learning do, doing to learn, earning to live, and living to serve.” The leader of the Hopkins Chapter is Mr. Firmage. Music in Hopkins Music in Hopkins is a big-time activity. Pioneered by Mr. Christensen and his band almost 20 years ago, new worlds were discovered in 1944 with Mrs. Bangh’s chorus work. This year 200 students are singing and playing for games, programs, concerts and special appearances. Hopkins is proud of its music. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB—left to right, front row: Mrs Bnngh. Mattlll.

Ol Back to school for our report cards—and then—Finis—30—adios—au r c v o i r—The End. A PROPHETIC One rainy night I visited a spiritualist who lived in an old rickety house on the top of a remote hill. I had come to inquire about the students of Hopkins High who had graduated with the Class of 1946 and to find out just what they were doing at the present. It had been twenty-nine years to the day that we had all graduated (I didn’t think anyone could possibly still be there—but then, you could never tell). An untidy old woman whom I knew to be the spiritualist immediately, opened the large door. As I entered, I saw pictures of each class that had graduated from Hopkins since 1903. “Come with me and I will make contact with one member of your class who will take us around and tell us the happenings of your high school classmates,” the old woman said as she led me to a still more dismal room. The contact being made after some ordeal, I found the go-between was none other than Mary Jensen. This is the way I found out all about the happenings of my old classmates. Mary Jensen, so I learned, was on vacation from her work as an entertainer at Weekend Vacation Hotel where Lois McMahon, another CONCLUSION entertainer, is trying to get Bud Hansen's mind off his research project of separating flics from pepper. She has decided to go back and visit Hopkins High so she calls, by the aid of the Pauly, Milbert, McGovern, and Fil ins Suburban Telephone Company. She calls the Hopkins Taxi president, Neal Abraham, to get a cab. He is busy, however, because Joyce Au-brecht is suing his Cab Company for damages and Joyce’s lawyer, Betty Bloom, (also president of the “Original Alibi Co.”) is winning the case. Jens then decides to take a bus and she talks to Dicl( DupslafJ, the driver, all the way from St. Anthony to Minneapolis. Also on the bus is Mary Mattill a buck private in the Salvation Army. After she arrives in Minneapolis, Jens begins to grow lonesome for her friends and she thinks about Bob Moore, a prominent scientist, busily filling macaroni with doughnut holes. To amuse herself she buys a newspaper, edited by Mary Ann Nagel and begins to read the news. Many former Hopkins students’ names are in the paper this particular day. Doug Arndt, a forest ranger, has just killed seven gorillas with one shot. Richard Bastyr has been promoted to head baker at the Waldorf 62 — 1946 Echoes Astoria. Florence Brown, a Metropolitan Opera singer, is to make her debut soon in Minneapolis and Donna Randall is raising berries in Cold Spring. Sylvia Zellinger, head of the “Live Flee Corporation has resigned her position and is joining the Ringling Bros. Circus to be a tight rope walker with Lucille Winkler. Aileen Olson, also in the circus has acquired fame for being the tallest woman in the world—7’ 11 . Vivian Nelson is the fattest woman and is operating her own side-show. Roger Pokprny is advertising his cabins at Christmas Lake and Kenneth Wiese has just discovered “what makes the world go around. Evelyn Sapp, owner of “Al’s Aluminum Co. is trying to get her employees off strike and there is quite a riot among three of the workers—Kathleen Pauly, Vera Larson, and Vivian Portner. Sylvia Swanson is now the soloist with Harry James band with Bob Sl(arolid at the drums and the featured star is Betty Schedin and her mouthorgan. Lorraine Sendee ky has just invented a fingernail polish that also removes fingernails. Margie Raudzis, who now has no fingernails, is trying to collect on the “money back guarantee. Agnes Dvorak is doing her part for America by raising crops on her 365 acre farm, and Margarite Elmcjuist is the author of the Burma Shave Ads. Mildred Gilman has taken over Dorothy Dix’s column and Joyce Grandlund is the new manager of the F. W. V(x lworth Co. Betty Hall berg and Elsie Rogers are both married and lane Huber is on her honeymoon with Ernie. Ruth Jorgensen, an explorer in Afghanistan, has just met an old high school buddy, David Kosanda, now a professor who got lost en route to the moon. Stella Mattern is touring through France playing three pianos at once— with her hands, head, and feet. Turning over the page, Jens finds Margie Crandall modeling overshoes for Scars Roebuck, and Ferry Sidla modeling the latest fashions in horseblankets. Arlene Dvorak has crashed burlesque and is known as Fluff . Algene Swanson is taking over Veronica Lake’s place in the movies and Beulah Pearson is featured in the latest western —“Six Gun Sal. Clyde Tschimperle, owner of the Chanhasscn Dairy, is closing down because of a slack in business and his watchman, Dick Hilsen, has just eloped with a blond. Mary Hayden is the first woman teacher at Shattuck Boys’ School. Joyce McClure, who now has her own all-girl band, is featuring June and Lorraine Henke in their musical comedy act. Turning to the sports page, Jens finds that Robert Wrase is the best basketball player in the United States and Bruce MacQueen is shortstop for the Brooklyn Dodgers, and Lorraine Wrase, following in her brother’s footsteps, is the first woman to ever play on the University of Minnesota football team. Marcia Anderson, is traveling through the Kentucky hills lecturing on “How to be a Good Athlete. Jens again calls a taxi to take her out to Hopkins High and she was driven out by I aVerne Zastrow who stops to get gas from Lew Korbel at the Pure Oil Station. Just at this time Donn Beidleman, supposedly cleaning the street, comes walking along with Cliff Butler and Arthur Nelson, Navy lieutenants home on leave. Conrad Naegle and Bill Gardner are painting the flagpoles in front of the school while Roger Foss and David Gates are mending the flags. Many former Hopkins students are employed at the new school. Charles Hall is chief cook and at the time is testing the texture of some lemon pies. Virginia Nagel is secretary in the office to superintendent Virginia Hovander. Teaching English are Dona Berggreen, Goldyne Block, and Delores Krai. Richard Johnson is teaching chemistry and Joan Kucera is the new German teacher. Dale Nicolai, commercial teacher, is known for his strictness and 17 pupils have been expelled from school for whispering in his classes. Teaching kindergarten is Jean Nordi uist, and Joyce Olson is specializing in mathematics. Mary Bezoier is the physical education instructor and is known as Muscle-bound . Rudy Dvergsten is teaching the art of cheerleading and Bob Brennen is writing skits for the Pep Club. Phil Lloyd is the Coach and Dorothy Barton is the model for students taking art. Shirley Sitar is the director of the senior high Chorus and Donn Escher, the high school elevator operator, has just fallen down the shaft from the top floor. Donn will recover says Doctor Mary Holasek• I opened my eyes slowly and found myself back in the dismal room. I thanked the old spiritualist and walked slowly down the sloping stairs through the rain to my car. “Strange, I mused, “how people change in the span of 29 years.’’ 1946 Echoes — 6S AOTOCftAPHS - —p--- I f Plastic Binding Division.
