Hopkins High School - Warrior Yearbook (Minnetonka, MN)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1957 volume:

TYbio. Typical of Mexico says Sergio. Sergio came from Mexico • Our schools are becoming more cosmopolitan each year. With AFS operating full-tilt in Minnesota, numerous private projects starting in the community, and several churches bringing in families from across the water, our entire system is feeling the seasoning effect of new customs and ideas. One such private project brought Sergio Chavez to our school from our friendly neighbor to the south — Mexico. Sergio lived with the Ross Daniels family.

FOREWORD Every graduating class boasts that its senior year was the best — and we're no exception. We've suffered defeats and gloried in our victories. We have integrated hard work with hilarious fun and discovered that no school year is complete without either. We have long felt the need for us, as young adults, to learn and understand that this feeling of working and playing together isn't popular to American youth alone. Therefore, we welcomed the opportunity to receive into our school the young people of foreign nations and to live through these events with them. We have gained a deeper understanding and more intimate knowledge of people of other lands through these youthful ambassadors. People everywhere tend to fear and mistrust that which they aren't familiar with — this is true among nations too. If these nations could know each other through their young people, perhaps many of their problems could be avoided and their mistakes rectified. These students from other lands have come to realize that youth is the same everywhere — whether it be in Hopkins, Minnesota, or Istanbul, Turkey. All of us have profited by this exchange of ideas and customs and will continue to do so for years to come. Throughout the following pages we have recorded the enriching moments that have made our 1957 school year complete. We invite you to relive them with us. 4 English Scene Along the Thames Maureen Patrick came from England for the school year 1954-1955, and lived with the Joseph Vesely family. Mary Towley spent the summer of 1956 in England, living with typical English families in Harpenden.

Kaija (Kay) Komsi came to us from sturdy, independent Finland, living the school year 1955-56 with the Carl Towley family. (Below) Istanbul with its Turrets. Osman (Ozzie) Edin was a first-year AFS student and came to Hopkins from Turkey for the 1954-55 school year. His home was with the Don Donovan family — the local AFS committee. DEDICATION • Your understanding way and guiding hand have assisted us over academic hurdles. • Your subtle humor and quiet smile have brightened many gray moments. • Your young ideas and modern methods belong in our new building and our new lives. • Your intelligent foresight and planning have paved the way for many successful ventures. • Your patience and helpfulness have caused us to think of you as a real friend. To you we dedicate the 1957 Warrior — ROGER PETERSEN 7 The Stat Hus Is A Show-place in Stockholm Jan came from Sweden • The smiling Swede found himself right at home in Minnesota. Jan Dagberg came from Stockholm to live with the Douglas O'Brien family during the school year 1955-56. SCHOOL Anderson continued as our president. This year Jeanne Berge and Marlene Anderson represented us as homecoming and Sno Days attendants. Mary Towley and Sue Ruha were our summer delegates abroad through AFS, while Marlene Anderson, Bill Seitz, and Milt Gustafson were our Girl and Boy Staters. Finally we arrived—our last year of school— seniors. We are enjoying the glories of the present and are looking ahead to all the decisions of the future. With open arms we accepted Roswitha Golder, AFS student from Switzerland, into our class. We also welcomed Willie Hernandez, another AFS student, into our school as a junior. Willie is from the Philippines. Rick Wilhoit, president, lead us through our last year, with the assistance of: Dehbie Moilanen, vice-president; Buster Miller, secretary; and Ron Mills, treasurer. Seniors Had Best Year Ever In 1955 we began our one and only year in the old senior high. Under the guidance of Marlene Anderson we spent our first eventful year in high school. We chose Doreen Anderson as homecoming attendant and Corrine Ek to represent us at Sno Days. Dave Dragotis led our class in sports as a starter on the A basketball team. As juniors we came to the new senior high with the banquet and prom on our shoulders. Marlene We chose Donice Richards as our “Indian Princess” for homecoming. She had Sandy Cottrill and Dehbie Moilanen as senior attendants. As we leave after graduation Jtine 5, we will have these and many more memories to take with us. The administration, teachers, advisers, and classmates have all made our school days worthwhile, eventful and happy.

Juniors Looking to Next Year Finishing a second year in the Hopkins Senior high school was the goal of this year’s juniors. With Roger Petersen and Delores Schwartzwald as advisers, Steve Johnson was president of the class, with Gene Lazaretti, vice, president, Gary Olson, secretary, and Dolores Dvorak, treasurer. Like all preceding classes, they too, added names to the sports hall of fame. During football season Paul Wiig and Roy Catlett distinguished themselves. Basketball was soon with us and Bob So-doma and Lee Jamison were familiar sights out on the basketball court. Merlyn Schuette should not be forgotten for he added his talents in both football and basketball. Not overlooked either are Rex Henderson and Paul Manion, who helped our swimming team achieve victories. Another winter sport not to be overlooked was hockey, in which Bob Gilbertson actively participated. With the football homecoming theme of Indian Summer, Roxie Goebel performed ably as the Indian maiden representing the junior class. During this year there was one thought uppermost in all juniors’ minds—that of the prom. From the time they sold concessions at an early football game until the last decorations for the seniors commencement and baccalaureate were finished, they were an ambitious and hard working class. There were other money making events also and the juniors tried very hard to make the whole year a huge success. Now the year is over and the juniors are awaiting with enthusiasm the opening of their final year in high school. JUNIORS—ROW ONE: Beverly Borncamp.

Scene is the third floor corridor. “Busy,” was an important word among the sophomores this year. Under the advising of Fred Stalley, they began their first year in the senior high school. The year brought many new, exciting, and thrilling experiences. Class Prexy, Andre Zdrazil, will never forget the night he ran all over, rounding up some of his eager classmates to work at the coat-check during the Hopkins-Richfield basketball game. Let us not forget the wonderful jobs that vice-president Ronnie McCready, secretary Cathy Lindahl, and treasurer Karen Severson, did for the class. To add a touch of beauty, they chose perky Judy Lund to represent their class at our football homecoming festivities. Connie Nelson was selected as Daisy Mae at the traditional Sadie Hawkins dance. Of course the class proved no exception to the rule: they won third place for their float in the homecoming parade. To be sure, they will never forget the trying but wonderful time they had creating it. In sports, both football and basketball B teams, composed mostly of underclassmen, had good seasons. They were cheered on by the six sophomore cheerleaders. They were also very proud of the three boys who were on the basketball A squad, Tom Sveen, Dave Sipprell and Denny Leek. As for hockey, Dave (Whitie) Sandgren, Bill Oas, Chaun-cey Wenn, Lloyd Arbogast and John Polifka, were all on the starting team. Looking back over the year the class has many treasured memories — only a beginning for the two meaningful years to come.

Mr. Tanglen, Superintendent of Schools. 40 Authority Is From The Bottom School District 225 is a populous and widespread suburban area including all or parts of the following municipalities: Hopkins, Minnetonka, Edina, Eden Prairie, St. Louis Park. Plymouth, and Golden Valley. It is a growing area; witness the new schools and additions that have been built in the past ten years. It represents a merging and consolidation of a number of districts: former District 19 of Hopkins, Harley Hopkins, Shady Oak, Glen Lake, Bur-well, Oak Knoll, and Westview. As in any democratic institution, authority for government comes from the people of the District. This authority is channeled through popular election to a six-member Board of Education made up of education-visioned men and women. Providing District leadership and interpreting and administering the Board’s general principles is the Superintendent, L. H. Tanglen. Dividing the responsibility of the thousand-and-one details in the secondary field of education are the building principals, Mr. Edstrom and Mr. Coppins and their assistants, Mr. Holden in the Senior high and Mr. Knoblauch in the Junior high. Channel of authority and responsibility in the elementary field is through the Supervisor, Mr. Ver Steeg to the principals in each school. Administering the physical plant and business details of a district involving fifty-six hundred students (this year) is Mr. Lundahl. The District maintains and supervises instruction in the Glen I,akc Sanatorium school through Supervisor Earl Edes, and two programs (three next year) for low ability groups under specially-trained teachers. Special services include experts in the fields of school health, remedial reading, remedial speech, visiting teacher, audio-visual helps, guidance and counseling. Principal A. E. Edstrom and Assistant Principal LeRoy Holden. Teaching in the Senior high school is in the hands of a corps of fifty-two faculty members. They are professionally trained, well adjusted, excellently prepared in subject-area fields, to quote the North Central Association committee report of a year ago. This group (the faculty) expressed its teaching philosophy as follows at that time: . . . “We must provide education which will best prepare our students to be informed and responsible citizens. We must provide education which will best prepare our students to live happy, healthful, useful, well-adjusted lives. We must provide education which will best prepare our students to select and succeed in a career for which they have aptitude and interest. To implement this third objective we must provide preparatory education for the near-half of our students w’ho will continue their formal studies beyond high school, and we must provide terminal education for the rest of our students who will end their formal schooling with high school graduation. Counselors Betty Johnson and Thomas Soldahl divide the responsibility for the large student body and give a great deal of time to personal interviews. District 225 provides a complete counseling service. 41 Basic Skills Not TOP (Left): Mrs. Duvivier, English and Journalism; Miss Flogstad, English; Miss Janzen, English; Mr. H. Anderson, English.

We must keep the tools of learning sharp-edged or there will be a great loss of efficiency in trying to attain the objectives of secondary education. “We must also bear in mind constantly that all youth of secondary school age in this school district should have an equal opportunity to learn. Their studies, experiences, and activities must be sufficiently varied and flexible to meet the needs of the exceedingly wide range of aptitudes and interests. It is the school program which must adjust to the relatively fixed mental levels of the students. Yet, while the school adjusts to the abilities of youth, the program of studies and activities must ever seek to fill the needs of youth and never be devised just to ‘keep the weaker students busy.’ ” We believe these are commendable objectives, worthy of a faculty of the high caliber such as we have.

Every student in Hopkins high school is privileged for three years to develop in his English classes the skills of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. He may specialize further in speech and debate courses. Through wide reading in the classics, from modern literature, and from periodicals, he can acquire an understanding of human nature and of modern problems, a background of the best ideas and ideals for the formation of his own philosophy of life, and an appreciation and enjoyment to fill his leisure hours. Work in developmental reading also aids the student to improve his ability to read. The student develops listening skills at all times— through class recitations, discussions, and reports, as well as through instruction and special projects. Communication through speech is an integral part of any English class, with special work in discussion, parliamentary procedure, and reporting. The speech and debate classes attract students with individual needs and interests. In writing, the student learns to express his own ideas, to interpret the ideas of others, to put together research materials, and to compose business and social letters. Grammar and usage are taught constantly as an aid to the improvement of communication. Library instruction enables the student to use our excellent library most effectively. Audio-visual materials further aid the understanding and enjoyment of many a lesson. Through teaching the language arts, the English and Speech departments aim to produce greater achievement in other school subjects, increased vocational competence, fuller personal enjoyment, and more responsible citizenship. The ability to exchange ideas with others by effective use of the language arts is important in any society; for life in a democracy, it is most essential. (Curriculum Bulletin No. 18, Minnesota Department of Education) With a firm foundation in these can we expect to progress in this highly competitive world. ACROSS: . . . math is no shunned course here though it is elective. 40% take math courses. The library is an effective teaching tool. There is no scarcity of texts, references or other material.

Professional people—teachers, doctors, lawyers, economists, accountants, research workers, chemists, physicists, engineers, surveyors, meteorologists, architects, statisticians, and actuaries—all require varying amounts of college training in mathematics. Some need it more for background or theory than for actual practice in their professions. Others use mathematics constantly in their work. It should be noted that more use mathematics constantly in their work. It should be noted also that more and more professions are using mathematics than ever before. In the last fifteen years, sociology, finance, economics, medicine, and business have found many new applications of mathematics. Pupils entering any of these professions will need to take the traditional college preparatory mathematics courses. For those pupils who desire technical training such as that needed for engineering, meteorology, architecture, medicine, dentistry, chemistry, and physics, the requirements for entrance are generally two years of algebra, one of plane geometry, and one semester of solid geometry. An additional semester of trigonometry is strongly recommended but not required. Practical math is a new course offered this year. • • • AND At HcpkihA . . . We learn to live in Understanding the problem of today's world and the developing of citizens for tomorrow's world is the task of the social studies department. In world history, which is required of all sophomores, the student is taught what man in other times and in other places has contributed to our culture and civilization of today. Beginning with pre-historic times and continuing right up to the present, world history shows the gains and losses of those who have preceded us in the past, so that we may profit. The political, economic, and social history of the United States is required of all juniors. The story of those Americans who have gone before us to clear and show the way, should fill us with a patriotic spirit so that we who follow may help our country take its proper place in the present and make its place in the future. Political science, sociology, and economics are all included in Modern Problems—required of all seniors. In political science the functions and operations of the government on the local, state, and national levels is the theme of study. Sociology teaches how to live with and adjust to our fellow men. Economics tells of the operations of business, labor, and commerce in our day-to-day life. Foreign languages are the counterpart to modern geography. They are popular with our students —who learn, not only to speak, read and write the language, but also to appreciate its customs and cultural contributions to the world's civilization.

The science courses in Hopkins high school are designed to meet the needs of the students in general as well as those students who plan to enter some field of science as a life vocation. Our classes help the students develop scientific attitudes, functional understandings of the basic concepts and principles, skills in problem solving and functional information and facts about such matters as: our universe, living things, the human body, the nature of matter, energy and the contributions of science to the life of our times. It includes the study of the physical and chemical properties of matter and the processes by which materials may be changed into more useful ones; the study of matter and energy and how matter behaves when energy is expended upon it; how energy can be transformed, and more recently, how nuclear energy can be controlled. Emphasis is placed on major problems of our times when these problems have a close relationship with science. Extra work in electronics is done in connection with our Physics classes. In our chemistry classes, the last quarter of the year is spent on the study of semi-micro qualitative analysis. During this period students run laboratory tests on unknowns containing cations and anions. Our life sciences include the study of the life functions with special emphasis on the conservation of human resources. The following sciences courses are offered in our high school: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Practical Science and Agriculture. SCIENCE in today's modern living. Our science courses are electives but fully 40% of our stu dents take them. Below . . . we learn about living organisms in biology. Closely related is agriculture.

We appreciate the arts and The philosophy of music education at Hopkins embodies several important principles, namely: music serves as an aid in developing intellect, music serves as an aid in stabilizing mental processes, music serves as an aid in worthy use of leisure time, and music serves as an aid in educating for democracy. The heart of the instrumental music program is the concert band, generally from 80 to 90 in membership. The complete five-point curriculum of instrumental music includes a marching band, an instrumental lesson program, solos and small ensembles schedule. Auxiliary units fitting into the instrumental music program include: swing band, baton twirling, German band and non-band instrumental soloists, such as piano, guitar, and accordion. A course in harmony, including theory of music is offered each year to interested music students. Beginning composition included in this class. The core of the vocal music program is the 100-voice a cappella choir. To meet the exacting demands of an organization of this type the students must learn to he dependable, alert, responsive, and to exhibit initiative. Within this unit are developed accompanists, soloists, boys quartets, girls sextets, a girls glee club, and boys glee club. Another performing vocal unit is the Glee Club composed of students who like to sing but are not in the choir. By combining the vocal and instrumental groups in a small spring concert, it is felt the final necessary addition is made to a well rounded music program.

BELOW and ACROSS . . . shops include wheel balancing (auto), operation of the Davidson (printing), saw (metal), lathe (wood) and drawing. In the business education department we learn facts and develop skills which give us vocational business preparation, personal-use skills, and a better understanding of the business activities of daily living. The cooperative part-time training program gives us actual experience in preparing for a job. We receive training in the basic business skills in our courses in typewriting, shorthand, office practice, bookkeeping, and occupational relations. In a department containing up-to-date equipment, we learn to use various business machines. We place emphasis, too, on developing personalities and attitudes which will help us to be successful in our future employment. Industrial Arts students are provided the opportunity to learn the latest trade practices through the use of the finest equipment and facilities available. Courses in woodwork, metalworking, mechanical and architectural drawing, printing, electricity and auto mechanics are offered from the exploratory stage to a point of highly skilled craftsmanship. rre-vocational and college preparatory work are available where industrial arts is a related field. The industrial arts courses also are designed to fulfill an important need in the over-all general education picture, particularly from the consumer and do-it-yourself standpoint.

Our teachers in gym are prepared to take care of injuries. Our school nurse is always on duty to safeguard our health and help in emergencies. Physical education, as a part of the total school program, has the same general aim as that of education. That is to develop the individual through satisfying his wholesome needs and interests so that he lives completely as a person and makes his maximum contribution to society. Physical education is often mistakenly considered to be education of the physical rather than education through the physical. Physical education includes development of a sound body and motor skills. The particular aim of physical education is to contribute to the total education of each individual by providing satisfying experiences through participation in and knowledge of physical activities. The physical education program has as its basic approach a broad understanding of the child in relation to the world in which he lives. The program at Hopkins includes a wide variety of activities as well as classes in health — required in 10th grade and elective for grades 11 and 12. 57 Rita came from Switzerland • The much-admired Swiss sent one of their top ambassadors when they sent Ros-witha Golder to Hopkins.

This almost doubles the council, which has the total membership of forty-three. The special project of the Council was to support the American Field Service to a much greater extent than before. Money was raised for this project with dances, selling buttons, and the annual car wash. A pencil machine and a suggestion box in the office, and a fruit machine in the lunch room are some of the accomplishments of the council. Don Grussing was president of the Council, and his fellow officers were: Brent Palin, vice-president; Debbie Moilanen, secretary; and Kenneth Soltis, treasurer. Donald Holcher is sponsor of the Council. Committee chairmen this year were: Preston Banning, concessions committee; Kenneth Soltis, ways and means committee; Carol Archambo, social committee; Rick Wilhoit, elections committee; Sandy Cottrill, program committee; and Brent Palin, ethics studv committee.

Honor Groups Are Important National Honor Society is an honor organization comprised this year of twelve seniors who are rated in the upper one-fourth of their class. These members were chosen last year on the basis of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. The club’s goals are to create enthusiasm for scholarship, promote worthy leadership, stimulate a desire to render service, and encourage the development of a good character. Each spring the faculty chooses not more than five per cent of the junior class and ten per cent of the senior class to take places in the Society. Officers this year are: Alice Huffman, president; Sue Ruha, vice-president; Charlotte Catoni, secretary; and Sandra Cottrill, treasurer. Adviser of N. H.S. is Miss Valborg Stenoien. To give the young journalist a form of well-earned recognition is the main purpose of the Quill and Scroll Society. This international honor society awards a key to students who have made outstanding contributions to either of the two publications, the Warrior or the Hi-Crier. Awards may be given on the basis of writing, editing, business skills or management. Aw'ardees must be juniors or seniors in the upper third of their classes. Membership must be approved by the prinicpal of the high school or the adviser of the publication. Journalists who received this award in 1956 are Sue Ruha, Mary Towley and Janet Tanglen.

President Gail Heikkinen, vice president Myra Mohlin and secretary-treasurer Angie Olson, did fine jobs in leading the group. The club, acting as a representative for all the students in Hopkins high, filled a number of gift boxes, sent a good-will chest overseas, sponsored dances, handled concessions at the games, and held the unforgettable faculty basketball game. As Dr. Albert Schweitzer said, “The Red Cross stands for an ideal, one in which humanity must think, feel, and act with compassion towards the world’s suffering people.” National Athletic Society Any boy who has won a letter in any of the sports and meets all the other qualifications is eligible for the National Athletic Scholarship Society. The basic requirements are earning a letter, keeping his scholarship for three consecutive semesters equal to or higher than the general average of the school, and to be among those who have exemplified the highest type of sportsmanship and citizenship. There is no limit as to how many boys may be selected. Each member receives a gold pin, with the initials A.S. on it, which the Lion’s Club presents to them.

Boys' Club Serves To promote better sportsmanship, further fellowship with other students and encourage clean living within Hopkins high school is the purpose of Cavaliers. Open to all interested Hopkins senior high school boys, the club was founded in 1952 as an outgrowth of the original Hi-Y club, which was sponsored by the YMCA. Keeping the boys busy this year were the selling of Homecoming pins, on which the Cavaliers cleared a S350 profit. Selling ball point pens and sponsoring the winter formal were two other projects of the club. Monev made by the club goes toward a S150 scholarship, given jointly each year by both the Cavaliers and the Cavalettes to a deserving senior. Also, the boys award a S10 prize for the best Homecoming pin slogan and design. The Cavaliers are expected to help in community projects whenever called upon to do so. An example is the annual Hallowe’en party that the group used to sponsor. Along with Dennis Pederson as president. Bob Knudson as vice-president, Richard Halvorson, secretary, Patrick Hendershott as treasurer, Dave Norrgard as sergeant at arms, and Mr. Soldahl as adviser, nearly fifty other boys help to keep the Cavaliers club running smoothly. To end off a perfect year, the club together with the Cavalettes, has a large picnic every spring. There is always plenty of fun and entertainment for the boys of the Cavaliers.

To start the new school year the Cavalettes, together with the Cavaliers, participated in a get-acquainted picnic. Before the Christmas holidays the Cavalettes sponsored the Sadie Hawkins Dance for Teens Against Polio. Nearly $100 was sent to the March of Dimes to combat this disease. During Christmas vacation the Calavettes caroled for the Senior Citizens at the Council House.

The monthly meetings were varied enough to be interesting. Mrs. Nelson, club adviser, showed slides of her trip to Europe; girls from the University of Minnesota lectured on campus life; and Roswitha Golden, our Swiss exchange student, spoke to the group, to mention only a few of the club activities. Magdelene Pelluf served as vice president this year; Linda Wolden as secretary; and Janet Bursch as treasurer.

Pep, Latin Clubs, Serve Need With Barbara Kokesh as president, Sandy Cotrill as vice-president, Donice Richards as secretary, Corinne Ek as treasurer, and Miss Schwartz-waid as adviser, the Pep club this year tried to achieve its purpose of promoting better school spirit in all athletic activities. By requiring members and little sisters to attend the first hockey game of the season, better interest in hockey was established. Among other things, the club sponsored a style show and presented the Homecoming coronation and dance. Requirements for membership are: being a junior or senior girl, attendance at previous games and initiation which takes place in the spring. Nancy Bagger, president of the Latin club, received good assistance from her vice president, Joe Poole, and from Polly Milner, secretary-treasurer. The Latin club voted this year to join the American Junior Classical League, a group composed of students throughout the nation. At the annual spring banquet, everyone came in costume, and Miss Ramono was the guest of honor. As the club is an extra-curricular activity, members devote their time to games, songs, and other recreational activities. They hope to have an official constitution drawn up Indore school is finally dismissed this spring. Their motto should probably be “Gaudeamus Igitur.

Debaters Fourth in State Under the direction of Coach Charles Caruson, Hopkins debaters have had a busy and successful season. With more than thirty students participating in Debate, Hopkins was represented at tournaments in three states. Hopkins debaters made a strong showing every time in tournaments held at South St. Paul, Macalestcr, Alexander Ramsey. Carleton, Gustavus Adolphus, Augsburg. Minneapolis Central, Cambridge, Spirit Lake, Iowa, and Eau Claire, Wis. Debates were also held for various civic groups in the community. This year, the Hopkins first affirmative team had the privilege of debating before the annual convention of the Minnesota Farmer’s Union. 'Phis year’s debate question was. Resolved: that the Federal Government should sustain the prices of major agricultural products at not less than ninety per cent of parity. It proved to he an interesting topic, and debaters were busy all season with research and interviews. Debates among themselves and a trip to hear a college debate on their topic rounded out their busy season. They were also hosts for the Region Five tournament. With Nancy Horner as their president and Linda Griggs as secretary, the debaters plan an even busier season for next year. They and the Blake debaters plan to sponsor a major tournament at Hopkins. BELOW: One of the reasons why Hopkins finished first in the region and fourth in the state — they were constantly at work. Linda speaks while Nancy listens and criticizes.

All-American Ratings in '56 World brotherhood is the pervading theme of the 1957 Warrior. This theme has been lived daily at Hopkins—and in hundreds of schools in the U. S.— through the American Field Service exchange program. In this program. American students spend their summers living as members of European families. Foreign students spend a year in the U. S. as members of American families, attend our schools and go back to their respective countries—friends of the U. S. Along with the Hi-Crier, the Warrior received one of Hopkins’ many firsts. This fall the Warrior staff was informed that the 1956 Warrior had received an All-American honor rating—the first in this activity. The Warrior staff was selected by adviser, Carl Towley, in the early fall. Chosen for the Business board were seniors Debbie Moilenen, Eileen Vassar, Marilyn Johnson, Gail Heikkenen, Charles Beckman and Gary Garwick. Seniors Sue Huha, Barb Johnson, Mary Towley and Milt Gustafson composed the editorial board and, with the help of a good staff, planned and wrote the book.

The boys in the group run movies for the teachers during class, at meetings, or club activities. The projectionists adviser is Mr. Duane Heaner. Noon movies are shown by the boys in the club during both A and B lunch periods. Although admission is charged, the money raised helps to defray the expenses in the use of the film and equipment. Every classroom contains its own movie screen and window shades to darken the room, which greatly aid the Projectionists in their work.

The club membership is only for seniors. The students go to school for half days and then are dismissed to their jobs for the rest of the day. Their half-day of school includes English, modern problems, occupational relations, and one elective subject. One credit is given during the school year to members in the club. Members are employed in department stores, offices, banks, and Minneapolis-Moline in Hopkins and Minneapolis. They receive the regular starting pay and are given raises during the time they are working.

Teachers. Rotarians. Do Well Advised by Fred Stalley, the Future Teachers of America elected Mary Ekelund president. The club is open to all students who wish to investigate the possibility of teaching as a profession and prepare for it. Various speakers and panel discussions are scheduled for their evening meetings. All-day field trips to colleges and schools to investigate the opportunities of their teaching departments, are planned during the year. Many of the junior and senior members had several opportunities to practice teach in elementary schools in the Hopkins school district. The Junior Rotarians are a group of boys selected on their merits of leadership and all-around participation in school activities. Two boys are chosen each month to attend the meetings of the Hopkins Rotary Club. The Hopkins Rotary Club consists of businessmen representing the many business concerns in the local area. The organization gives to chosen senior hoys the oppor- tunity to become acquainted with the Rotary Club and its various workings in the community. At the meeting, they have the opportunity of talking over civic affairs with members. These meetings provide living examples for high school students of how civic organizations of the community operate. Milt Gustafson and Bill Seitz go over UN material prior to the Winnipeg meeting in April.

If there is a particular book or pamphlet that you are having difficulty locating, the Library Assistants are always available for your needs. They are invaluable in getting into circulation the many books which we all enjoy. These girls, under the supervision of Miss Bowing, the club’s adviser, gain valuable experience in the mechanics of operating a library, as well as an excellent opportunity to meet and help many new students. Guides and Librarians Serve Who helped you to locate the room you couldn't find when school opened again last fall? Who directed you to the lunchroom or tried to acquaint you with the names of many of the new teachers employed this year? The Student Guide Service, of course. At the beginning of the year, these capable students patrolled the halls, giving assistance to bewildered pupils, unaccustomed to the crowds and confusion of a large school. The organization during the remainder of the year, guided various special organizations, and other visitors through the school. The supervisor of the Student Guide Service was Miss Johnson.

Meetings were held every Thursday after school at the home of Judy Christianson. Their president, Larry Nelson, with the help of vice president Karen Slater, and secretary-treasurer Judy Christianson, carried on the business. Meetings were always full of fun. Programs ranged anywhere from a guest speaker to a “This Is Your Life” program. We cannot forget the singing and all of the tremendous outings. The purpose of the Dramatics club is to help interested students learn more about the theatre. Club members try to obtain a better understanding of what dramatics really is. They discuss all phases of acting, including such things as diction and posture, and how they contribute to good acting. Club members attend professional periormances to see firsthand what they have talked about. They act out plays among themselves to apply what they have learned. They also study such things as lighting. sound effects, make-up. and direction. Tryouts for membership in the club are held in the fall, and all students are eligible.

The club, only two years old, was under the guiding hand of Mr. Paul Hedbloom. President of the group was Mike Lisle, junior, who ran around frantically trying to get the day’s program under way. Music Menu Senior Darlene Peterson was secretary of the group, and I,arry Nelson, also a senior, was treasurer. The Disk Jockeys provided lively eating music in the lunchroom for both lunch periods, as well as musical activity-hour programs. Entertainment was provided in the form of popular music and progressive jazz. LEFT: No mike fright here on WHHS.

Band Is Oldest Organization Looking resplendent in their new uniforms, the Hopkins hand made its first appearance during the summer months at a Rodeo at the Bloomington Stadium on July 5. They appeared there again at the Hopkins’ night baseball game. They received •SI00 by playing at the County Fair, a week before they marched in the Raspberry Parade. The band found itself very busy during the fall months by first playing at the Mankato State Teacher’s College Homecoming. Later on they played for President Eisenhower when he came through Minneapolis. This fall they were also able to march at two football games, including homecoming. Raising money for their annual band trip, taken about a month before school is out, is always high on the list of band activities. Their magazine sale made about $800 for them while a dance sponsored by the Music Parents cluh also helped. Winter and spring has always proved to be a busy time for hand members. First came the Christmas concert with the Choir. During the winter months they are an ever-present factor at our basketball games — always ready to lend a hand to school spirit. Always present too with his cheerful grin is band director Uncle John Tesar. Since Central high school had given a concert here, Hopkins returned the concert and later worked on the annual spring concert with the choir. Even though the band members have been playing in a group through the year, each one is able to develop his talents in daily practice and through Mr. Tesar’s lessons. Like the athlete, the musically-inclined are thus able to work for district and state contests. At this time, with graduation only a short way off, band members are sorry to see another year slip into the past. 78 THIRD ROW: John Turngren, Dale Armitrong, Elaino Cermak, Jane Helgeson, Grelchen Smith, Paul Wahlstrom, James Kiefer, Gary Spott, James Svihel, Tim Donovan, David E.

They have a large variety of selections ranging anywhere from the swinging music of Prom Jump to the soft, mood music of Serenade. Besides dances, the band played in an exchange talent show Hopkins had with another high school. They also appeared at other school activities.

Warriors Won The Hopkins football team started their season fast with two victories. However, injuries and bad luck led to six straight conference defeats. White Bear Lake 0 — Hopkins 6 The 1956 Warrior football season started off with a bang when Hopkins defeated White Bear 6-0. Early in the second quarter Hopkins drove down the field and Zerban plunged over from the three to score the first touchdown of the year. Hopkins threatened twice in the third period but lost the ball both times inside the 10 yard line. Minnetonka 13 —Hopkins 25 Hopkins won their first and only conference game of the season by defeating Minnetonka 25-13. Miller passed for tw’o touchdowns and ran for a third as Hopkins played their best game. Kucera set up another touchdown with a pass and scored it on a quarterback sneak. Edina 14 —Hopkins 0 The Hopkins-Edina game paired two unbeaten teams both hoping for a third win. In the first three quarters neither team scored. In the fourth quarter the Warriors had fourth and one on Edina's 16 yard line. Hopkins couldn't get the yardage and after that key play Edina scored in seven plays and won the game 14-0.

Two Kucera-to-Hamilton passes with Seitz’ conversions gave Hopkins 14 points but Park scored three times. Wayzota 13 —Hopkins 2 The Warriors were upset by Wayzata 13-2 in their fifth game. Hopkins was inside the 10 yard line twice in the first quarter but lost the ball on fumbles. Then a Wayzata player was tackled in the end zone for a safety. The Trojans came back with two touchdowns scored on sustained drives while the Warriors failed to cross the goal. Mound 7 — Hopkins 6 The 1956 Homecoming was marred by a 7-6 loss to Mound. Although Hopkins gained more ground, five fumbles offset this gain. Mound converted the first fumble into a touchdown and conversion to lead 7-0. Two Mound fumbles gave Hopkins a touchdown with only 36 seconds to play but the attempted conversion kick was wide. Richfield 19 —Hopkins 6 In their next-to-last game of the season, Hopkins played good ball against a fine Richfield team. Richfield scored on the first series and held the lead until the fourth quarter when Wiig scored a touchdown to tie the score. Richfield scored twice in the final period. Fine defensive play by Hopkins inside the 20 yard line kept Richfield from scoring more. Robbinsdale 21 — Hopkins 0 In their last game of the season, Hopkins met the number two team in the state and conference champion, Robbinsdale. Good defensive play by Hopkins kept the score from being higher although both Robbinsdale and Hopkins looked poor on offense.

Hopkins 57 Edina...................43 Hopkins 53 Edina...................41 The Warrior upsetter, Edina, lost two conference games to Hopkins.

Strangely enough, in all three wins goalie Rudy Anderle lanked the opponents without a goal. They beat Mahtomedi 3-0 and 5-0. and Bloomington 3-0. Although they finished in last place, the start of a PeeWee hockey program means hockey in Hopkins will pick up. In conference play the Warriors failed to win a game. They lost to Edina by 6-1 and 7-1; to Park by 4-1 and 4-0; and to Richfield by 5-2 and 2-1. BELOW: Manager Pat Hendershott and Dennis Shonka show Coach Breault how funny the situation is.

Won District; In November the Hopkins swimmers set for themselves three goals for their second year of competition. They were: 1. To win the District 18 swimming championship. 2. To establish Hopkins as the swimming power in the Twin Cities area. 3. To place at least fifth in the state meet. At the end of the season, all three goals had been accomplished. In District 18 conference dual meets our Warriors were undefeated and captured all the first place medals and the team trophy in the championship meet. St. Paul’s city champion, Wilson, fell 46-31 and our tankers dunked the Minneapolis champion, North, 42-26. Climaxing this aspect of their season 5th in State competition our swimmers brought home the YMCA Twin City Invitational championship team trophy. Records dating back to 1939 were shattered in tht state championship meet as the fastest field in Minnesota swimming history met. Hopkins placed fifth and served notice that they had reached the contender class. Coach Johnson credits much of the success of the team to the excellent performances of the first year men: senior Dave Burt; junior Mike Finney; sophomore C. D. Miller; and two tremendous freshmen, Ralph Allen and Terry O’Brien. Seven seniors who will all he very difficult to replace include cocaptains Denny Pederson and Dick Halverson, and Mike Yerxa, Boh Miles, Denny Kilbane, Dave Burt and Tim Donovan.

Although this year was only the second in which Hopkins has had a team, the thinclads placed sixth in the district meet and tenth in the regional. A 1.9 mile course along Lake Nokomis is used by the harriers. The team is still building (it’s composed largely of sophomores), but Coach Elmer Luke hopes for a bigger turnout next year. Chauncey Wenn and Mike Linder are the outstanding runners. If Coach Maetzold can produce as many individual track standouts this year as last year, he truly can be called a wizard. Like the swimming team, the trackmen set a new state record in the relay. The 880 yard relay team composed of Jerry Garwick, Jerry Lewis, Mike Mueller, and Chuck DuCharme with Jim Uram as an alternate won in every meet they were entered. In the 440 yard run, Garwick finished third in the state meet. DuCharme in the 100 and 220 and Jim Shy man in the field events were other standouts.

Last year’s team finished with a 3-3 record, They beat Bloomington, Mound and Wayzata, and lost to Minnetonka, Edina and Park. Rick Wilhoit, Bob LaRue, Jim Cagley, Mike Badeaux, Wayne Larson, John Witmer and Jim Nelson were all on the team last' year and return for this season. Maetzold will face a rebuilding job next year because of all the graduating seniors on the squad. The Hopkins baseball team faces the new season hopefully, but it looks like all the teams will be tougher with the exception of Edina. Last year’s squad tied for second place with Richfield on the basis of a 4-3 conference record. They beat Richfield, Mound, Robbinsdale and Park, and lost to Minnetonka, Edina and Wayzata. They had a 3-4 record in non-conference play. Paul Fix, Dave Dragotis, Jerry Vanek, Merlyn Schuette, Butch Kucera and Milt Gustafson will provide the nucleus for an experienced squad.

In each meet, the Warriors will enter five single’s players and two double’s teams. Therefore, five to nine boys can compete in a meet. The success of the tennis team may mean the addition of other minor sports at Hopkins. Physical education is a varied and complete course in health, exercise and fitness at Hopkins.

Sergio and Dennis added pep. Rocky came from Germany • Joachim (Rocky) Schapitz, pink-cheeked Nordic, was a good representative of the New Youth of Germany. He came late in the summer of 1954—our first AFS year—and spent the school year 1954-55 living at the Miller home. The summer of 1955 Hopkins sent its first returnees under the American Field Service program. From the group applying early in the year, a committee chose and recommended Glen O'Brien, Barbara Anderson, Carol Lynn Johnson, and Gordon Mork. They spent the summer with families in various parts of Germany. SCHOOL LIFE School for Us Wasn't All Work Schools are pretty much the same the world over and it follows that students are too. Whether in England, the U.S., Greece, Sweden, Turkey, Germany, Switzerland or the Phillipines, students have their favorite teachers and classes, hobbies and amusements, likes and dislikes. Thev like to get together for talks before class and after school with close friends. They like to laugh over sillv jokes and pranks during the time they should be listening to cldss lectures. They like holidays and vacations — no school! They enjoy, with just as much lung power, watching or taking part in games — basketball or cricket, football, tennis, or. rounders. They have their class leaders and names for teachers. In our Warrior this year we’ve attempted to cover all the informal life of our school: fads and fashions, locker chats between classes, school programs and routine events, celebrations. We hope you like it! TOP (Left): Three regulars on the top step, Darienne, Mary and Cathy.

Important Too Pep Fests Were We Had Our Celebrations-Home Reigning over this year’s football homecoming was Princess Donice Richards. Helping Donice rule over the “Indian Summer” were four lovely maidens: Debbie Moilanen and Sandy Cottrill, seniors; Roxanne Goebel, junior, and Judy Lund, sophomore. The homecoming festivities were opened with a bonfire sponsored by the Cavaliers and held in the back of the old senior high. Something new this year was tried by the Pep Club who planned and decorated the coronation. Instead of the traditional royalty theme they used the theme of “Indian Summer” with the Princess and the four maidens dressed in colorful Indian costumes. Lovely Princess Donice was crowned with a large, beautiful, white headdress in front of a throne representing a tepee. The coronation and talent show was emceed by Warren Stepanek. Following the coronation there was a parade of floats led by the band down the main street of Hopkins. The senior class was awarded the prize for the best float with the slogan “You Ain’t Nothing but a Mound Dog!” “The Last of the Mohawk-ins” was the theme for the festivities outside of the coronation. The game with the Mohawks of Mound topped off with the homecoming dance, with the Twilighters dance band, brought the activities to an end.

The stage was set with a winter scene. White excelsior, as snow, was spread over the floor of the stage, with trees lining the stage. An old-fashion red sleigh was set in the middle of the stage as the throne for the king and queen. Suspense filled the air when Ron Mills. Sno King, walked through the line of queen candidates, Barbara Kokesh, Mary Seleen and Barbara Tallman, and unrolled the sealed scroll that held the name of the 1957 Sno Queen, Barbara Kokesh. Helping Barbara reign, as attendants, were Nancy Jensen, junior, and Judy Tschimperle. sophomore. “Winter Wonderland” was the theme of the semi-formal dance given by the Cavalettes and Cavaliers the following night. Music was provided by Dick and Don Maw and their band. The semi-formal brought the 1957 Sno Days to a glorious end. 115 Sometimes Life TOP (Left): Joan Neudecker and Sandy Pilarski are agog at what they hear.

KILGORE LUMBER COMPANY 350 17th Avenue North In Retrospect As we look back over the publication year, we are mindful of a number of things— • In prospect it seemed endless while in retrospect it has gone all too fast. • In prospect it looked easy—a cinch job—while in retrospect we know it was a tough, demanding job. • In prospect it looked like fun; in retrospect it WAS FUN! • We want to extend our thanks for help to Daniels Studio, to Ken Sorensen of Denison Yearbook, to Bud Mjos of Dahl Binderv Co., to all our sponsors; our thanks for patience and cooperation to Mr. Edstrom, Mr. Holden, advisers and coaches, and our own adviser, and the student body itself. We have gained much more than mere technical knowledge in working on the 1957 Warrior. The statistically-minded reader might be interested to know that the 1957 Warrior contains 558 pictures (selected from 1478 taken) and approximately 6600 words of copy (reading matter). The staff began work in September and sent in the final pages March 15. We will be even happier than vou to see the results of our work—come the middle of May. Body copy is set in 10 point Bodoni Book type, heads are set in 36 point Tempo bold, group pictures identifications are in 8 point Spartan medium and captions of informal shots are in 10 point Spartan medium. The book is printed by the offset process on 100 pound enamel paper. Financing a yearbook is a nip-and-tuck proposition and our adviser says if printing costs continue to go up next year you can all expect to pay an additional 50 cents per book. We have enjoyed the year, and doing the book with each other; we hope you like what we’ve done in the name of the 1957 Warrior and Hopkins high school. 120 THE STAFF No man is an island, entire of itself; Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod he washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as if a promontory were, As well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own were. Any man’s death diminishes me. Because I am involved in mankind. And therefore, never send to know for whom the bell tolls, It tolls for thee. —John Donne
