Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1982 volume:

The School District of Hudson hereby declares that it does not discriminate on the basis of sex, age race, creed, color, religion, handicap, national origin, or ancestry in its educational programs and activities, policies, or in admission or access to programs or activities offered by the school dis ric Sailing-On Our high school interests take us to many new places just as sailing vessels takes us to new ports. We must not linger, for our cargo of knowledge must be used and shared. In the 1982 yearbook, we have tried to show the gradu- ation of knowledge as a sailor graduates from sailing the lakes, to sailing the seas. Good luck, and God bless, on your voyage into life. J- ‘i 1 2 STUDENT LIFE As the swift clipper ships depended on those craftsmen and mariners upon whose skill and seamanship is founded the progress of ship building through the ages, so, also, is the success of our school established on the knowledge and skills learned by the students in it. 1 his section portrays activities of many students involved in the day to day bustle of Hudson High. 1981 Prom Sails Romantically On The Juniors set the carefree atmosphere with sailboats and seagulls on that magic filled night, May 2,1981. A girls first prom is the one she remembers most. A boys first prom, the thing he remembers most, is how broke he was for weeks- months afterward. No matter what number of proms you attend, they all are special and unique. COME SAIL AWAY was the prom theme. Couples danced on waves of happiness to Christopher Cross Sailing . 6 Prom 1. Kirk Klund and Trina Fehr enjoy the prom while standing in front of the sailboat made of crepe paper and streamers. 2. Denise Ventler and her escort Doug Peterson sit on the sail- boat. 3. The Junior class officers and their guests: Vice President Shannon Sturtevant with Marty O'Connell; President Traci Hansen and John Dornfeld; Secretary Betsey Horne and Sam Schullo. 4. The Country Genlemen entertain the many prom goers. 5. Come Sail Away '81 poster lined the North wall of the gym. 6. Brian Tindell and Cathy O'Malley talk in front of the light- house. Prom 7 Look To The Future Graduation night, always an emotional time, with thoughts of, This is it, It doesn't seem possible, and I made it. Terri Raley, president of the 1981 graduating class, gave a speech that set the tears flowing from everyone. Goodbyes are many times sorrowful, but on this night it was with a look to the future, hearts filled with sadness and with hope. Geoff Vanderlinden and Lena Fontainhaus added a cheerful lilt to the night. They disputed the stereo- types attached to their cultures, and affirmed the ones associated with Americans. Terr Bear, Terry Peterson, received an outstanding citizen award, bringing down the house with ap- plause. One viewer had the sentiments that, You could sense the closeness of the class of '81. They are a glory bound class. 1. Terri Raley, class president, gives a teary-eyed farewell. 2. A hoot of accomplishment and the traditional tossing of caps. 3.

Lena Fontainhaus and Geoff Vanderlinden, foreign exchange students, emphasize warm feelings with humorous speeches. 6. Lauri Laatsch gives a farewell and good luck hug. 7. A victory salute and feelings of relief that we made it . B Graduation Graduation 9 Students seek employment as inflation skyrockets. Rising gas prices eat away at the paychecks, leaving little money for anything else. Friday night games, movies, dances, and concerts also decrease the pocket- book rather quickly. Many students work summer jobs, like Dave Trapp, who worked at the Dairy Queen. It was an easy job, and I had fun working with the other employees, he said. Dave's specialty was the famous Peanut Buster Parfait! Tari Franck also had a summer job. She worked at the A W. The part she liked best about working there was all the interest- ing people she met. Some brave souls are able to tackle a job during the school year. In years to come, our generation will see money become more and more important to everyone, and will probably find a much higher ratio of students working. 10 Jobs More Students Work 1. Hungry customers keep waitress, Tari Franck, on her toes. 2. Joe 'Barney' Bauernfeind hauls furniture into Country Squire. 3. Dave Trapp, the ice cream man. 4.

Jobs 11 The Morning Routine At 7:30, the commons stands empty and tranquil. However, 7:45 students begin to wander in and all tranquility ends. Pandemonium begins as friends gather at the tables to do last minute studying or finish forgotten homework. Others gather around lockers to talk over yesterday's excitement or what happened at the party Friday night. Finally there are those who take a 10 min- ute nap before the bell rings. At 8:00, the tone sounds, the crowd scatters as everyone heads for their first hour class. The only noise left is the humming of the overhead lights. The commons is still once again. 12 Morning Activies 1. Looking for a familiar face can be a real chore on the ramp. 2. Caught unaware, Shannon Sturetevant poses for the camera. 3.

Morning Activies Imagination Sets Styles The 1981-82 school year at Hudson High proved to be a year of uniqueness. Students dressed in anything from preppy to punk to western . . and of course, the old favorites- a sweater and a pair of jeans. Designer jeans maintained a top notch priority in many wardrobes along with wool skirts and blazers. Baggies, cowboy boots, and wide ridged cords added stylish variety. This year the trend was to let the student use a little imagination and design a style of his own. 14 Fashions 1. History shows, no matter how students dress, fashion for teachers remains the same. Mr. Ronning models the ba- sics. 2. Cowboy boots and a skirt with lace gives off the femi- nine yet sporty look of a cow- girl. 3. Designer jeans were all the rage. The jean fad never seems to fade . 4. The classic blazer and skirt suit worn by Shannon Sturte- vant worn has an air of timely elegance. 5. Mary Frolicher donning plaid skirt and coordinating sweater gives evidence of the preppy trend. 6. Lori Zilge combines preppy plaid with high heels and colored nylons to create a classical 50's look. 7. Blazers of all textures and styles were in . Julie Steffel models a popular one in wool. 8. The everlasting crew neck sweater in bright colors and patterns resists the changes in tides of fashion as shown here by Traci D'Addario. 15 Pop Concert Outstanding The 1981 Pop Concert was a good end- ing to an excellent year ' said Miss Holmes. New groups and ensembles were formed to demonstrate the out- standing abilities of the students. Ex- amples of this were the 'Dixieland Band and the 'Bertha Frey Singers'. Adding a special touch of wit and hu- mor was M.C. Linda Bleskacek. And brought back was the Art Show with a fine display of pottery, drawings and paintings. 1. The Dixieland band belts out a blasts of Southern hometown jingles. 2. Terry Negard, band director, announces the next number. 3.

The Swing Choir rises in a song as they reach a musical crescendo. 1981 Homecoming Very Unusual From day one class spirit was overwhelming. This showed itself in many ways. During the Powder Puff Football game the Juniors team spirit overcame the Seniors by a score of 8-6. This was the spark which started the raging fire between the classes. Just when we were getting used to seeing the posters up the student council took them down ' stated a member of the Junior Class. This quote was directed at the fact that the student council had to take the class posters down because the Juniors and Seniors kept tearing each others down. At the actual Pep Fest the seniors took many of the events, such as the yelling contest, the obstacle course, and the penny drive. The Juniors once again were victorious in the mighty Tug-O-War. The sophomores were completely lost in the mass confusion, but they'll give this years Juniors a run for their money in '82. During the planned activities of the Pep Fest there was turmoil between the Seniors and Juniors. A few eggs and many water balloons almost ruined Homecoming for the classes to come. This was in very poor taste. stated Tracy Roswell. The Homecoming dance was traditional and the Country Gentlemen entertained as they did last year. There were also many people looking forward to the return of college friends. At 9:45 a stunned Natalie Erb was crowned Homecoming Queen for 1981. t 1.

The net proceeds of $7,000 will be used for the North Huson parks, summer recreation and youth activities. stated Woody Erickson. Local businesses contributed a large portion of the proceeds by sponsoring participa- tion in the parade. There were 172 units in the parade, many were colorful and inventive floats. Food booths, beer gardens, buttons and balloons contributed to the abun- dant profit. 3. Kelly Spain, M. Rivard, T. Dabruzzi, B. Fanning. 4. Missy Strehlo, Marilyn Hause. 5. S. Harper, N.

The candidates' excitement hit it's peak on January 16th at the Hudson Hospital Auxilliary Sno- ball. Julie Steffel was crowned Miss Hudson under the silouette of the New York City skyline, which portrayed the Best of Broadway theme. Natalie Erb and Alane Averill were named 1st and 2nd princesses, respectively. Annette Plagborg was given the Miss Congeniality award.

John McEnroe also surprised fans by winning Wimbledon against the former winner Bjorn Borg. The craze of '81 was Pacman. Many people flocked to the arcades to play this and many other amazing games. While this craze was going on, the makers of Atari and Intelevision were getting ideas for new games for their home computer systems. Among the happiest events of the year was when Princess Diana and Prince Charles were wed. This event was so important that all the major networks carried extensive coverage of this Another marriage was that of Laura and Luke of Gen- eral Hospital. One fad which went on through the year was keeping up on General Hospital which was adding new twists to its plot. Raiders of the Lost Ark , Taps , and Reds were among the top grossing movies of '81. It was a good year for movie goers because they were allowed a variety of shows to pick and choose from. A new club formed for Athletes was Fellowship of Christian Athletes. After many people thought this club was accepted as being official. President Dave Hahn was told that it was not accepted in the school systems. 1981-82 Many Violent Acts And Tragedies 1981 was a year of many violent acts. This showed itself in the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II and President Ronald Reagan. One attempt that did succeed was that of Anwar Sadat. On Jan. 20th a Boeing 747 crashed into the Potomiac river after hitting a bridge. 78 people died in this accident. Another fatal accident closer to home was that of John Dicke, Hudson. He died while driving West on 1-94 when he was hit head on by a vehicle traveling in the wrong direction. 1. The newsmaking space shuttle poised before flight. 2.

Happenings 23 ORGANIZATIONS While sailing through life, when hit by thundrous storms, high winds, rough waters, and bad times, we'll look back at this yearbook and remember all the good times we had. The involvement with various clubs resulted in these good moments. Even though homework sometimes fell along the wayside we always made time for those clubs and through experience, we somehow learned to handle both schoolwork and our social activity within these organizations. TBA The TBA's three editors, Tom Springer, Michele Rie- del, and Jill Harrison had a tremendous job to do. Tons of photos had to be taken, developed, and printed of all sports, clubs, and events of this year. Tom Springer, photography editor, and his ambitious assistant, Chris Nielsen, devoted many hours to the cluttered, but comfortable atmosphere of the dark room. Lisa Singer was called in emergencies to print also. About all of this Tom stated, I'm practically coming down with mono from being overworked. Due to the small size of the staff there were many times when the editors had to come in during holidays to finish up deadlines. Thanksgiving vacation found Michele and Mrs. Phillips proofing, typing and doing last minute layouts. Michele's comments were, as she cheerfully entered the yearbook room that day, with clenched teeth, Where is everyone? In spite of all this she stated, I think people are missing a lot of laughs, a lot of M M's, a lot of late night pizza dead- lines, and most important, a lot of comaraderie by not being on the staff. There are good feelings shared when first seeing the book printed, your own words expressed in print, the photos you picked out and the layout design you created all there to be read and viewed over and over again by many. It's a wonderful feeling of accomplishment. 4 1. Old yearbooks provide ideas and entertainment, as Barb Bakken had discovered. 2. Chris Hermansen takes a break from her typing. 3.

TBA 27 TBT Works Hard; Yields Quality Paper “I would like to put out a flawless paper, one perfect issue, but it is highly improbable. It's very nearly impossible, stated Editor Paul Rebholz, We had a good staff and worked hard. But in the approximately eight hours that we put the paper together, we're bound to make mistakes. 1 rue Blue Times advisor, Richard Gustafson, claimed, We had a slow start with a 'green' and fairly thin staff but rounded out nicely as we got into the year. One major piece of equipment was purchased, a copy waxer, bought with money from the TBT Bookstore. The waxer replaced the rubber cement formerly used to paste up copy when producing the newspaper. At the end of the semester there was a juggling of editorial positions due to the early graduation of co-editor Bev Fanning. Todd Schnobrich became co-editor, Katie Gehn took feature editor, and Brian Tindell was selected editorial editor. Co-editor Todd Schnobrich said, I think this year's staff did a tremendous job and I'm glad I had the opportunity to work with them. Three of the staff members volunteered time to help out for the fund raiser for the Marian Pepin Scholarship Fund. Paul Rebholz, Jill Harrison, and Theresa Terwilliger did various jobs such as clearing tables, and washing dishes. Gus even wiped a few dishes, noted Terwilliger. 1. Editorial Staff: G. Annis, J.

Remmers TBT 29 Two Students From Europe Through foreign exchange programs, AFS exchange student Andreas Ger- meyer and Rotary exchange student Annete Plagborg made Hudson their home during the school year. They brought with them many customs and in return will take a small piece of America home with them. Contrary to popular belief neither student found all Americans to be exceeding- ly wealthy, violent or crazy, as televi- sion has led them to believe. Ann is sponsored by the Hudson Rotary Club while Andreas is sponsored by Hudson High's own AFS Club. Both groups are basically support groups for foreign exchange students. 1.

Their goal is to fund the all-school banquet in the spring. The H-Club purchased all the awards for the banquet. Advisors Larry Parfitt, Mary Lau and Harry Kaminsky negotiated the arrangements to sell popcorn at basketball games and wrestling matches. With many active members this club offers excitement and much success in reaching their goals. 1.

Student Council Spanish For the Spanish Club, this year, one of the most exciting and rewarding projects was the sponsor- ing of a Bolivian boy named Miguel Berrios. He is a sixth grader who lives in Bolivia and the club's funds that are sent to him buy food, medi- cal treatments and anything else he may need. The club raised money by selling Christmas tree ornaments that they hand made and decorated. They also plan to sell Spanish candy. The club will also eat at a Mexican Restaurant and become involved in other activities throughout the year. 1. Mrs. Neumann gives the day's directions. 2.

To go with the new style they also have new uni- forms, which will become the perma- nent Raidaire uniforms, new pom pons, and new gloves for routines without pom pons. In addition they wore ballet slippers as well as saddle shoes. In November, the Raidaires went to a pom pon clinic in Amery and, for the second year in a row, they brought home the Pork Fork award for eating the most at lunch. They also were vot- ed by the other 12 squads at the clinic to receive the Pal of the Year award for being the friendliest, most helpful squad. This year's captain was Denise Ventler. She commented that being captain was a lot of fun but that there is a lot of pressure to see that the routines were ready and everythings went smooth- ly. All of the routines were made up by the team members together and they all have a lot of talent according to the Raidaire advisor, Ms. Holmes. 1.

There are 7 squads this year: Varsi- ty and j.v. football, varsity and j.v. basketball, varsity and j.v. wrestling and our newest squad, hockey. The hockey squad was added last fall along with a hockey team. Lori Jor- genson, when asked why she went out for the new squad, replied, because I enjoy hockey immensely. Cheering on ice however is hard work. It takes more ability and agile limbs, much more coordination, and a more flexible schedule, commented Angie Steinmetz. Mrs. Vincent, the cheerleading advisor, felt that the squad really worked hard, and they had a lot of spirit. The squads practiced on Wednesday nights from 3:00-4:30, practicing floor cheers, side- lines cheers and formations. New uniforms were purchased by the j.v. wrestling squad as well as pom poms for the varsity squads. 1.

The lure of the sailing ship is as the attraction one feels towards team sports. It offers a strong sense of belonging and power experienced in the pride a team member feels when his team has won. Don Bodesheimer To State For 3 The boys track team had a good year in spite of the loss of many key senior runners. During their many meets they improved their times and set some new school records. The younger members of the team improved tremendously in hopes of running on varsity. During varsity conference Don Bodesheimer (Boda) ended up with three first places in the half mile, one mile, and two mile. He led the track team to a second place finish behind New Richmond. Quite frequently during track season the boys team had to share the gym with the boys baseball team, girls track team, and sometimes the girls softball team because of rain. This made training difficult, hot, and very uncomfortable. The girls track team did not have as successful a season as the boys, but most improved their times and skills. Practice meant getting up very early and running two to three miles before school started. It also involved doing strides, intervals, and agonizing Seventh Street hill stints. Most claimed rain, shinsplints, turned ankles, and just plain sore muscles were still worth it. 42 Track Events, Tim St. Peter For One. 1. Off to a fast start is John Sure- van t. 2.

Track 43 Injurie's Plague Baseball Team “We suffered some key injuries, and then started to lose. said Larry Parfitt. The Var- sity team started its season with many re- turning lettermen, and some great expecta- tions. They suffered some key injuries early in the season, though, and seemed to lose some of their enthusiasm. The team also lost a few very close games earlier. This did not help their morale. All in all, their re- cord turned out to be three wins to nine losses. Last year's team had twelve graduating sen- iors, so this year's team should start out young and fresh, and hopefully will build lots of team spirit, and be a tight, cooperat- ive group. Their biggest obstacle will be to find a conference to play in, since most of the teams have gone to summer baseball. The Junior Varsity baseball team had a re- cord of five wins, five losses, and one tie. They lost three vital players by the end of the year, and because of that, lost some of their morale. There were some great points though, such as a pitcher that didn't give up a loss all year. Most of the games that were lost were because of mental lapses on their part, says Coach Van Ert. There was only one game when they were out played the entire season. Coach Van Ert states, A lot of young talent is coming to the Varsity team this year. 1.

They had an excellent year with an undefeated record of 8-0 in con- ference. Over all their record was 11-3. This has been only their third year as a team and they are planning another great year. We've lost many Seniors this year but our pitching is going to be strong. stated Coach Mary Lau. They have a good chance of being conference champ in '82. 1.

With the coaching expertise of Don Krupa, the team made it to a triumphant 2nd place at sectionals. The girls are working harder than last year. They have more dedica- tion, stated Mr. Krupa. I thought the season was fun, but we didn't do as well in some meets as we should have; like conference and sectionals, says Theresa Terwilliger. Rather than remembering disap- pointig races, the team will remember: finding souvenir golf balls . . rolling down hills . . . doughnuts the morn- ing of a race . .

In spite of having no seniors they were a fine team that produced a conference co-championship with New Richmond as Coach Ron Wilhelmson stated. Ac- cording to senior Dave Hahn, who was a second year team member, there was a great balance of skill throughout the team. The doubles team of Ty Anderson and Dave Hahn went to sectionals, but were eliminated in their first match. None of the team members graduat- ed in '81 so the '82 team will have a lot of experience and should be tough to beat. 1. Ty Anderson goes after the ball while Dave Hahn looks on. 2.

They won the conference 'dual record' championship and placed second in the conference to Amery.

No one can say they pulled a game on Hudson without working, says Christian Nielson. They represented us at Invi- tationals in Madison also. When asked how the J.V. soccer members worked together. Coach Braun stated, For the most part they fit together well, there were some dis- agreements, but they seemed to work them out . Being it's their first year, the team did really well. I.

The season was highlighted by setting a school re- cord score of 154. The team was rather inexperi- enced having only two returning varsity players from the previous year, but the spirit was super. There were four returning lettermen, even though two Seniors have graduated. The prediction of this year is, the golf team will be very strong and have a good shot at winning conference .

Hockey 53 J.V s New Style The J.V. team did exceptionally well this year. They had a record of 9-1. Many of the players are obvious picks for the Varsity team next year. After only a few minor adjustments, the team started to play as a team and developed team spirit and pride, says Ms. Lau, the new volleyball coach. Once we got used to the way each other played, we worked very well as a team. Good serves, spikes, and sets improved throughout the season, stated one of the J.V. players. Ms. Lau also stated that the J.V. team is superior to other J.V. teams in skills and teamplay. 1.

Volleyball Varsity Volleyball Is Hot The Varsity volleyball season turned out to be a very successful year, but they did have their trou- bled times. Coach Noreen says, Confusion results if communication with each other is silent. Talent in this year's team was not missing. Some servers were constantly accurate, while others had more ability to bump to their target area, spike, then attack, and block opponents. Their record for the year was 5-5, a surprisingly better record than last years 7-13 conference record. V. Volleyball 55 Raiders Defense Ranked A line forms on the field, a whistle blows and then there is a thud muffled by the cheers of the football fans. This year's team has done very well in many areas; the most productive being the defense. The Raiders were ranked on the top of the MBC for defense. It was stated that the Raiders could have easi- ly been at the top of the MBC, provided one fumble in the B? e dwin game could have been t n en back. When asked how he felt about the teams discipline as compared to last years, Greg Bennett stat- ed, The difference between this year and last year was like light and dark. This year attitudes were superb and discipline was not needed because everyone re- spected the rules. Coach Ka- minsky added Our strength has been the unselfishness of each player and the never give up at- titude. 56 Football Top Of The MBC Varsity; Back row; Bob Evanson, Dan Paulson, Fred Coulter, Terry Rowan, Dan Fox, Bart Germain, Brian Flatt, Mike Kelly, Tony Hawkins, Vince Reiter, Brad Waznik, Pete Meulemans, Rick Roswell.

The rest of the team were junior varsity and newly recruited freshman. Says Prokop, We didn't have as good of record as last year but the varsity tankers all broke their previous records.

According to senior Sue Olson, the team started slowly, but they improved as the season pro- gressed. The team coach, Flor- ian Cassutt, felt that the team could play very well, and there was a lot of real nice talent; nice height and good shooters. They were stronger as an of- fensive team, according to Teri Metzger, but during the season the defense improved a lot. It also took a while for the girls to adjust to each other as play- ers, Julie Boumeester thought. But they grew to work excel- lently together. As a team the girls expressed appreciation for all of the parent's support, and they hope to gain more support from the student body in the fu- ture. 60 Girls Basketball Marked Improvement 1.

The team took fifth in the Hudson Invitational. Kirk Klund, John Feia, Doug Peterson and Brian Flatt were in the finals. Doug Peterson took first place. The Grapplers took third in the Rice Lake Invitational, placing them second in their conference. The team suffered a setback with the loss of Brad Rose due to an injury at home. Over all, the teams morale was very high ac- cording to Flatt. I like wrestling, he said, be- cause it involves one-on-one competition, making it strictly an individualized sport. So if you lose, you have only yourself to blame. 1. Back row: Coaches Phil Braun and Paul Fggen, Dan Paulson, Gref Hustad, Greg Wert, Bruce Wang, Guy Lozier, Brian Flatt.

If heeded, the path is open for those who've listened and learned and fortunes are found for many. Administration 1. Mr. Christiansen, our new Superintendent of Schools. 2. Mr. Scheffen, Assistant Principal. 3. Mr. Schumacher, Principal. 4. Mr. Schwen- denger. Director of Education. 5. Ms. Crown- hart, School Counselor. 6. Mr. Luedtke, School Counselor. This year the administration, along with parents, board members, and teachers, have come up with a new school philosophy. The purpose of it is to, tell our community what we believe education should accomplish in the Hudson School System, ac- cording to Mr. Parfitt, one member of the committee. Previously the school system had only a general paragraph called a Statement of Achievement. Accompanying the new philosophy is a set of goals proposed for grades K-12, explaining in greater detail what the schools should try to accomplish. We also have a new superintendent in our school system this year. Dr. George Christienson. He came to us from Mounds View, Minnesota. This year was his 31st in education and he has also worked in Rush City, Minne- sota and in Minneapolis. He began as a teacher and has since worked as a counselor, advisor, assistant principal, principal, research coordinator, area director of instruction, and acting su- perintendent. Some of the areas his work involves are personnel, finance, staff, commu- nity relations, and future planning. Dr. Christienson has also been in- volved in attending community events, school sponsored activities, and classrooms to see how the system works. He was very impressed with the total school district. He also said that he truly enjoys young people and to him there's no greater excite- ment than seeing a student succeed. Administration 71 School Help In the office this year, we had a new face. Judy Campbell, who left last year, was replaced by Sue Schreiner. Miss Schreiner is a 1980 graduate of the University of Wisconsin, River Falls and she substituted here in the High School last year. Her job involves keeping attendance records, taking phone calls, doing general office work, and waiting on students in the office. She was also Mr. Scheffen's secretary, as well as being the student counsel advisor, which has been a chal- lenge to her. She enjoys the job because the time goes so fast and because she likes working with kids. perlin-ERC 10. Ms Shave, cook 11. Mrs. Cross, So. St. Res. 12. Mr. Matz-custodian 13.

The highlight of the year was our Stu- dent teacher, Mr. Sprangers. He was here for the first eleven weeks the year, working with Mr. Grabau, Mr. Rengstorff, and Mr. Grubbs. He had three Biology classes, and one Chem- istry class. He stressed to our inter- viewer that he had a very positive experience with all of his classes and will miss the people here very much. Mr. Sprangers will be graduating this spring with a double major in Biology and Chemistry, and will be certified to teach both. 1. Student teacher, Mr. Spranger 2. Chemistry teacher, Mr. Grubbs 3.

Calculus students spend hours doing parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses, while Trigonometry pupils are frantically solving for the areas under graphs by using in- scribed and circumscribed rectan- gles. The Math Department excels in keeping its followers very busy doing and learning. Miss Hughes again honors us with her cheerful and brilliant help, tutoring many frustrated Math students. She seems to clear up clouded minds no matter how difficult the problems that af- front her. A new and distinguished staff member was added to the staff this year. Mr. Roesch teaches Con- sumer Math and Geometry. 1. Geometry and Consumer Math teach- er, Mr. Roesch 2. Math advisor Miss Hughes assists Patti Cudd. 3.

Others work in groups running a simulated business. To accomplish this many stu- dents had to put their many skills to work in posting, journalyzing, opening accounts and etc.. Moans of anguish can sometimes be heard over the noisy clacking of the typewriters as students struggle over numerous typing errors, or try to manipulate clumsy fingers over the correct keys. Due to lack of participation, the accounting class was dropped but a few ambitious business people took it as an Independent Study Program. Mr. Fegely and Mr. Lindgren were kept busy correct- ing mountainous volumes of typewritten exer- cises but the typists pounded endlessly on, some even using the hope and poke method. All in all, business classes offer young people desperate- ly needed skills enabling them to successfully enter today's job world. I. Students hard at work in typing. 2. Mr. Lindgren gives the day's instructions. 3. Working on assignments takes up a lot of time. 4. Students work diligently under Mr. Fegely. 5. Bookkeeping and business typing teacher Mr. Fegely. Home Economics The Home Ec. department bustled with activity as the students in the Family Living class wrote up marriage contracts, “married a classmate, and together planned their housing, insurance, budget and grocery ac- counts. They suffered from similated real life cri- sises such as, car accidents, a death in the family, loss of job, alcoholism and etc.. While those students ex- perienced the ups and downs of family living other students were preparing to teach 12 to 15 pre-school children. For a three week period these toddlers are taught entirely by the students in ABC(AI1 About Children) Class. Other students in the Home Econom- ics Classes learn sewing, purchasing, and cooking skills which prove to be very necessary in the outside world. 1. Foods-With-A-Flair, Family Living, All About Children, and Creative Crafts teacher Mrs. Vincent 2. Today's Housing, Fascinat- ing Foods, Consumer World, and Stitch-In-Time teacher Mrs. Qualls. 3. Mrs. Qualls instructs Kathy Forsythe and Paul Lentz in the finer points of cooking. 4. Lots of hustle and bustle in the home ec. department. Industrial Ed. Only a certain percentage of the students go into a field pursuing the skills they learn in the various shop classes. Many of them take personal satisfaction in their projects and consider it a hobby. As students advance from basic woods to cabinet making, they learn a succession of skills, says Dale Van Ert, woods instructor. In the metal category, welding skills were used by students to complete a project. Small engines and automotive classes were also offered. I.

According to Dwight Jordan, Agriculture Instructor, few people realize how important a knowledge of Ag. is to the existence of people. Al- though food is a large part of this industry, other fields such as engineer- ing and medicine use this knowledge also. The agriculture class is important because it provides comsumer aware- ness. How much does it cost to feed your family? Or a nation of people? In order to keep our way of life going-it's important to know. Activities in the Agriculture Department included field trips to the North Hudson Vet Clinic and farms. Students also conducted a lab where live chickens were butchered in the shop. 1.

Foreign Language Herr Schubert teaches not only the Ger- man language to his classes, but also histo- ry, people, technology, and the cities. All the books are in German. Says Chris Wolfe, The ability of commu- nicating is very important. The classes are planning a trip to Germany during the last two weeks in March. They will get a chance to experience the culture they are learning about. Spanish, according to Senora Neuman, is fast becoming the second language of the U.S . More and more knowledge of the language is needed for business. Classes used a variety of means to learn Spanish. One week was dedicated to cook- ing. They visited the zoo last spring. The tour and signs were all in Spanish. Some kids are already thinking about a trip in '82 , commented Neuman. 1. Spanish Club: Back row Ms. Neuman, A. Feyerei- sen, S. Schoenoff, T. Fehr, C.

One such student was sophomore Todd Wilhelmson who was always in working on projects during spare time. These students will light up in knowing there's a new Ceramics II class added to the art curricu- lum. It's an advanced pottery class and deals with intricate pottery forms and includes more wheel throwing. Another new class is Advanced Drawing and Painting which requires students to take Draw- ing and Painting I preceding. Next year only juniors and seniors will be offered pottery classes, to separate serious students from the clay throwing ones. noted Phillips. 1. Sam Schullo creates a masterpiece. 2.

Ed. department added yet another aspect to their system during the past couple of years. Students were given the opportunity to add adaptive Phy. Ed. to their schedules. In this class students with tempo- rary or permanent handicaps were given special atten- tion enabling them to participate at their own speed. With thanks to Mr. Kaminsky's efforts, adaptive phy. ed progressed to an excellent class. Another new area of the Phy. Ed department was weight-training for girls. Many girls chose to take the course in place of a semester of phy. ed. and some chose it as an elective. Whatever the reason, many girls found weight-training to be a very rewarding experience. 1.

Ed. Drivers Ed The sophomores registered for school this year in eager anticipation of receiving those long awaited drivers licenses. Because driving is a big responsi- bility the students sat doggedly through a semester of drivers education. They watched filmstrip after filmstrip and listened to lectures on the ways of the road . Finally they took the dreaded permit test, and could begin the final step. Throughout the course many drivers sat behind the wheel, to the dread of the public. Those people practiced right turns, u turns, and even some turns that were not in the program. They encountered the most difficult tasks, parallel parking and off the road recovery, finally, to recieve their long awaited orange card enabling them to put their knowledge into action. 1.

Voice lesson re- quirements are involving more advanced tech- niques and less terminology, because under- standing has progressed so. People come in for extra lessons even though extra credit isn't being given. Miss Holmes comments, ... it's been challenging this year to take so many new and raw voices and get them to do something. 1 looked forward to this year to see just how far those students who came in with me have grown in the three years,it has also been interesting watching them grow as people too, which is very important to me, says Miss Holmes. 86 Chorus 1.

Miss Holmes Chours 89 Band The Hudson High School Band Program, under the direction of Terry Negard, contin- ued its reputation of fine musical perfor- mances. This year the band planned its trian- nual trip. An intensive fund-raising program made it possible for the band to perform at Walt Disney World in Florida. A rifle squad was an ex- citing addition to the flagline. New outfits of red, royal blue and white for the entire col- or guard complimented the bands uniforms. The Jazz Band attended state competition, and performed well at their various concerts. Other small instrumental groups added variety and exposed the talent in H.H.S. musicians. 90 Band 1.

Band 93 STUDENTS As captains take command of their sailing vessels, so too, do we, as students, take command of our passage through our school years. We sail on, as those sailing ships of old, from one experience to another, whether romantic, educational, or just simply enjoyable, making friends along the way. We, too, are blown by the winds, the winds of trends along the way. Sophomores The sophomores share a lot of mixed opinions about the Sr. High School. On the following pages we've included some sophomore's views on the good and bad points of the high school. The questions asked were; what their first impression of the high school was, and what their overall impressions of teachers, classes, etc. were. 1 remember the stereotyped opinion that everyone at the Jr. High had about the high school. They all thought it was great. Now that I'm here I still think it's great. All my friends are here and it's lots of fun. I really like the commons, but it would be nice if we could have open commons during our study halls. — Joanie Klecker — 98 Sophomores A. Adams ]. Adams R. Alger S. Amundson G. Annis B. Austen K.

Kinney My first impression of this school was that the building was very confusing. It's a totally different experience from the Jr. High. There is one thing I don't like very well, and that is the fact that the lockers are too small. It gives you a crowded feeling. I feel my teachers are friendlier here too. There is a larger variety of classes to take, which makes school a little more interesting. -Bill Bader- Considering I'm a new student here I'm quite satisfied with this school. All of my classes are interesting, but we’re given large amounts of work. I especially like eight minute breaks because it makes the day seem to go faster. I'm looking forward to my last two years at Hudson High. -Tony Rusch- T. Klatt J. Klecker Sophomores 101 One thing the high school does is give the students a lot more freedom than we are accustomed to. We have more choices as to what classes we take, but they are all a little harder. I especially like the commons. It gives us somewhere to go before school, at lunch, and after school, to do what we want (mostly unfinished homework). I think the eight minute break is nice too. We can suppress our hunger until lunch. There are, overall, some really good points about the High School -Lynn Heffron- ]. Kollitz T. Kolz K. Krenz B. LaCroix H. Larson J. Lee J. Lein M.

The eight minute break is nice because I have a little more time to talk to my friends. The rules that we have are stricter, but some how it's probably all for the best. -Sue Strey- My overall impression of the high school is that it differs a lot from the Jr. High. The teachers treat us more like adults and with more respect. My classes were easier than I expected them to be. Here there is a larger student body and it took a little while to get used to it. -Rich Hanson- R. Robbins D. Roettger D. Rohl K. Rorvick S. Rose T. Rouleau T. Roy T. Rusch T. St. Peter P. Sake D.

But when it comes to growing and learning, the ju- niors didn't stop, they plunged head first into their studies, in hopes of a promising future. As juniors, we triumphed in a victorious Powder Puff Football Game with the Seniors. For the second year in a row, we remain undefeated during the home- coming tug-o-war. We learned dedication towards one another while working on the Jr.-Sr. Prom. Athletics, academics, clubs, and the arts all portrayed a special part of all of us. Juniors Do It - With CLASS. M.

Physically 1 haven't grown at all but emotionally and men- tally I've become more stable. ---Mike Ewing------ I know what it takes to be a winner and the value of having a good friend, and what a great time I'm having in school.

Johnson H. Kadidlo B. Kelley M. Kelly L. Kersten As a junior, life is beginning to come more into perspective for me. I'm starting to realize that soon high school will be over and then what will I do? Where will I go? All these ques- tions jump around in my head. Last year graduation seemed so far off. This year it's like it is just around the corner. I really never thought about college, jobs, ect., before this year. Now, it is so important. The world will be very different when I'm out on my own and I hope to be in charge of my life then, by plan- ning ahead now and being pre- pared. ----Jackie Gornick------- L. Kester K. Kiel B.

I believe I’m using these years in school the best way possible and am having a good time doing it. The highlight of my Jr. year was meeting new people.

My advice is to take it easy your Senior year. - Bill Willman - Trina Fehr John Feia Donna Fleming Mari Frohlicher I am disappointed in my Senior year. It is not what I thought it would be. When asked, In what area of school are you unhappy, the social side? In total innocence came the reply, What other side is there? I fell behind in my Sophomore and Junior years and now I'm paying for it. My advice for upcoming Seniors is to plan your Senior year now so by the time you are a Senior everything will fall into place. - Brian Dommeyer - Jody Garey Andreas Germeycr Tim Gilbertson Wayne Glasbrenner Colleen Coettl Carl Gregorson Seniors 123 124 Jeff Hafner David Hahn Robin Haller Leigh Halvorsen Traci Hansen Karin Hauge I thought my senior year would be a lot harder. I didn't find it too difficult. I'm anxious to graduate. I took both easy and hard classes, my junior classes were hard. Those classes left to take as a senior are fairly easy, even though you still have homework. Upcoming seniors should take hard classes and get them out of the way. If you excel in one area of study, then stay with it. - Mike Strey - Seniors Thomas Hogan Susan Holm Robert Holton My Senior year met my expectations in the sense that it was the best year I've had at the HHS. My friendships have really grown throughout my Senior year. That's what really makes it all worthwhile; growing not only in studies, but with the people with you all through high school. My advice to the upcoming Seniors is to make the most of it. It's the only one you have and this is the year of your best memories. - Lynette Vickerman - Seniors 125 Juli Huber Kris Huber Tim Hustad Jean Isaacson Nancy Janse Ron Jenkins John Jenkinson Jeri Jensen 126 Seniors Brent Johnson Wendy Ketter Randy Klawiter Paula Johnson Len Kaiser Shawn Kiley Don Kirkpatrick 1 didn't really know what to expect, 1 guess 1 expected a lot more goofing around then there was. I'm making sure I have a lot of good times now, it will probably be one of the most memorable things in my life. Get your required classes out of the way as much as you can, your Sophomore and Junior years so you can really enjoy your Senior year. - Robin Haller - Kirk Klund Robert Kortum Joe Kromer Matthew LaCroix Jeff Larson James Lauber No. I thought it would be a breeze, but it is more pain than pleasure. They could give you credit for your job experience and more time for studies. Get your credits in during your sophomore and junior years so you don't come up short. -Neil Schweitzer- Denise Lein Paul Lentz 128 Seniors Wendy Line Carolyn McGrew Debbie Lomnes Pat McMahon Lori McPhetres Marcia Mahaffey Paul Martin 129 130 Seniors Teri Metzger Jen Beauchamp I'm happy with my Senior year. There seem to be more priviliges and advantages. My schedule is tough and I have lots of homework. It's sad knowing a lot of my friends won't be seen after school but I enjoy the good times while I can. My advice is to get good grades now so you can enjoy your Senior year. ________- Tammy Hillstead - Joni Mork lulie Ncubarth Karla O'Neill Karri Peterson 132 Seniors Doug Peterson Heidi Peterson Sue Olson Thomas Parker Kim Penman Catherine O'Malley Tammy Phillips Annette Plagborg Laurie Ponath Yes, they say your Senior year is the best and it is. Basically, by taking one day at a time and enjoying it. It also helps being a candidate for Miss Hudson. This may be crazy but my advice is just to enjoy your time in school, because these years you meet some of your best friends and chances are slim of seeing them after school. These years can be great if you want them to be. - Jody Garey - Rita St. Marie Paul St. Ores Pam Sagehorn 134 Seniors Sam Schullo Steve Schwartz Nancy Seim Kathy Sanders Todd Schnobrich Duane Scholz 135 Jeff Smith Julie Smothers Dave Smith Dan Stilley Mike Strey Shannon Sturtevant Bob Tellander Kay Tiedeman Geoff Van der Linden Steve Thalackcr Bruce VanSomeren Denise Vcntler 137 It wasn't what I thought it would be because it was supposed to be an easy year, but so far it isn't. If 1 could change it, I would have worked harder in my Sophomore and Junior years so I could have partied more this year. My advice is to work harder your Sophomore and Junior years so you can take it easy during your Senior year. - John Jenkinson - Sue Warren Kerri W'eeks Greg Werl Kari Wilhelmson Bill Willman Pal Wood Chris Yaritz Lonny Zillmer Debbie Zmuda Those not pictured: Dave Ades Jim Alger Tad Armstrong John Beier Mike Bierbauer Tim Bliven Janine Cross Zach Drinkwine Jim Einhardt Mark Ekblad Paul Enloe Char Fern Chris Harwell Maxine Hayes Ken Houman Amy Knoll Dan Koepke Joe Kota Jerry Krassau Deanna Lozier Guy Lozier Chuck Martin Chris Mullen Terrill Perkins Kevin Rogers Teresa Russell Tom Schlief Neil Schweitzer Julie Vanasse Bill Wanner Chris W?illiam Lori Zilge John Windolf Don Zastrow r A ship in a harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for. -Shedd- As you go through your life, don't be afraid to take risks, for that is what life is for. ur thanks to: us to interrupt their classes __________________ -the administration Tfl flHM| help, and support. -the TBT whose information prove valuable. -Hudson Photography. -Mr. Forester, for announcing all our meet- ings. -Ron Kresel, whose layouts helped along the deadlines. -the yearbook staff, whose sense of humor got us through many late nights and a lot of hard work. -and most of all, to Mrs. Phillips, who not only knew the answer to every question, but did four times her share of the work.
