The '76 Hornets celebrated the bicentennial by compiling an 8-1 record. Especially memorable were the 15-6 victory over Hancock and the 21-6 loss to Forest Park, both games being decided in the 4th quarter. Along with a fine record, the varsity could boast about its honor winning players. R. Tollefson, C. Summers, R. Kissel, R. Kemppainen, D. Kent, M. McDonald, R. Fedie, and S. Tollefson were named to the All-Conference Teams. S. Tollefson was selected as All-U.P. quarterback by the U.P. sportswriters and sportscasters, and M. McDonald was selected for the All-U.P. defensive team. Also earning honorable mention for All-U.P. were: D. Kent, R. Kissel, R. Kemppainen, S. Dillon, and R. Fedie. S.

However, Coach Niemela noted that the sopho- more standouts will probably add the extra punch for the varsity next season. He also predicted that this year's freshmen will be much improved with a year's experience and he looks forward to a much better season in 1977. PowVi '76 . . . The Hornettes enjoyed a 17-3 season, were the Copper Country Con- ference Division II champs, won the district tournaments, but lost to Norway in the regional finals, 49-45. Senior guard Karen Marquardt was named to the first team All-Con- ference and All-U.P., she was also the team's high scorer with a 14.8 average. Coach Carol Seavoy was selected U.P. Class 'C' Coach of the Year. Also receiving post-season honors were Kay Lanctot, selected All- U.P. and Terri Flaa, second team All-Conference. Along with Mar- quardt, Lanctot, and Flaa, other graduating seniors include S. Bol- ton, Sh. Daust, A. McPhillips, P. Selden, and G. Stroube.

The 1976 Varsity Hornets completed the basketball season with a fine 14-8 record. The team placed second in the Copper Country Conference Division II and boasted its second highest scorer as well. He was senior guard Steve Tollefson, who fired in 435 points in the regular season. This, added to his total from three previous varsity years, gave him a grand total of 1,174 career points, making him the third player in LHS history to top the 1,000 point plateau. Tollefson was also elected to the first team CCC and the All-U.P. team. Other grad- uating members were D. Martinac, who was elected to the second team CCC and given honorable mention for All-U.P., M. Anderson and M. McDonald. They will be missed but Coach Sirard has hopes that those return- ing, along with those moving up from the JV's will make the Hornets Number 1 in the 1977-78 campaign. 20 JUNIOR VARSITY TEAM MEMBERS: STANDING, L to R: Coach Jerry Bugni, S.

The Hornet JV'S made it known throughout the area that the Varsity Hornets are going to be the team to beat in the 1977-78 season. They finished their year with an excellent 16-2 record, their losses being to Ewen-Trout Creek and Westwood. The team won the JV Tournament for the second year in a row by defeating Houghton in their opener and Ontonagon in the finals. If this year's freshman players stay strong, together with the upcoming Jr. High talent, there is little doubt about another JV Title being captured by LHS in the near future. 21 Junior f-fajk Sosk tbcM 8th GRADE: KNEELING, L. toR.: K.

The 1976-77 Little Hornets proved with their unblemished records that they are going to be tough contenders in the next few years. The 7th and 8th grade teams boasted 6-0 and 8-0 records respectively. With the 8th graders moving up to junior varsity, LHS should expect another JV title next year. For their part, the 7th grade players look like a sure thing to win the Junior High Tournaments in their 1977-78 season. T. Johnson throws the ball up court. J. Brown and T.

Regionals and third in the U.P. Finals. Departing seniors this year were speedsters M. McDonald, S. Tollefson, and S. Dillon. Hopefully the rest of the squad will compensate for the loss of these people. Team members were: SITTING, L to R: T. McKindles, J. Maki, R. Tollefson, J. Kangas, R. Lyberg, and M. Elmblad.

The Hornet Band, under the direction of Mr. Glenn Rip” Anderson, participated in many events this past year. The musical Hornets played in two parades, the first recent Homecoming parade and the annual Memorial Day parade. They played for the Veterans’ Day program and the annual Christmas and Spring concerts - which were deemed successes. Six Band members traveled to Marquette to take part in the Solo Ensemble Festival held at NMU. The entire band traveled to Escanaba to participate in the UP Band Festival. 34 Chcwus —Sound Uu$fo odb LWS This year, for the first time, the chorus sang on TV at Christmas.

LHS had its first homecoming parade in nearly a decade and it snowed, of course. The band froze their fingers and thought about playing White Christmas” in October. The juniors won the float competition. Their float was titled Blast 'Em. The sophomores were second with Tear Them Up, the seniors third with Eat 'Em Up, Chris Sholander and Becky Clisch were crowned King and Queen. Neptune played at the dance, held at the Knights of Columbus Hall. There was a Hat Day, a Clown Day, a Dress Up Day, and a Slave Day. (Guess who bought Ann Edwards?) There was a bon fire (sort of), a tug of war (sort of) and a football game (definitely!). L'Anse beat Hancock, 15-6. Not bad. Not bad at all. 39 40 U Ucte t CjOtAiM cJlW k Winter Carnival was a big success this year. Monday was Cupid Day, Tuesday was Clown Day, Wednesday was Couples Day, and Thursday was dress up day. Friday afternoon the most talented students at LHS performed at the Gong Show. The Hornets won the Homecoming game with Houghton. The parents of the senior players and cheerleaders were honored. The King and Queen were Mike (Buddha) Anderson and Patty Miron. The other candidates were Luanne Lambert, Mike McDonald, Debbie Johnson, Damon Talerico, Jane Almli, Buddy Sweeney.

Santa Claus always manages to get girls; too bad this one isn't a little bit older. The Junior class receives help with remembering the carol of the week. This is what Women's Lib has done to old Christmas carols - We Three Kings . . . and a Queen! ? 48 w The Future Homemakers of America have an exceptionally active chapter in L'Anse. The girls raised money by sponsoring a dance, taking cookbook orders, and selling carnations on Valentine's Day. They sent three members to the state convention. Wanda Pietela earned a first place in the competition there. Their last activity was a spring membership drive, promising an even busier year come fall. Members of the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America accomplished much this year. To raise money the VIC A club raffled off a CB radio and held an all day car wash which took place at the Industrial Education Building. They participated in the annual VICA competition which was held in Menominee and were instrumental in the construction of three picnic tables for the Otter Lake Campground facilities. V.I.GA- CWs Club The Chess Club, under the direction of Mr. Louis Owen, participated in the U.P. High School Chess Champi- onships. The masterminds of LHS did well for their first year.

They were: Scott Lloyd, Monica Sullivan, Tanya Rajala, and Jeff Kangas. Everyone enjoyed themselves, some more so. Hank Londo, for example, behaved like . . . Hank Londo. Julie Lepola wasn't quite sure what the punch lacked. Others just wished the cameraman would go away. 53 kum k A$$W 5y CLOCKWISE: Mr. Owen told about the first year of the LHS chess team. Ellen Mannikko, Bruce Roberts, Bob Tarvainen, and Roger Cam- peau received books or member- ships in the US Chess Federation after a successful year. Bowlers get awards - can you recognize Mike Bourdo from his better side? Too much school gets to one after a while. Do these perfect attendance pin winners look blurry to you? Jeff Kangas accepted the trophy on behalf of Bruno’s Bowlers, tops in their league this year. CLOCKWISE (opposite page): Miss Sylvia Ambs presented a debate trophy to the school and awards to Bonny Kinnunen, Alli- son McPhillips, Ann Barthell, and Anne McPhillips.

Service Awards went to the office girls and others who gave up study hall to help out (and to scout for boy or girl friends as the case may be). Novice debate award winners - Nancy McPhillips and Hank Londo. C'mon Nancy, Smile - like Hank is. 54 •o VO U(wxw Stu taftfe The annual Honors Convocation is held to give recognition to those students who excel in the main pur- pose of attending school - getting an education. A record number of students from grades 4-12 achieved a 3.5 or better grade point average to take part in the festivities. Miss Mary A. Harrington was the main speaker for the evening. She outlined the purpose of the annual event - to give students an incen- tive to work harder at their school work. Laura Bourdo, the 1976 recipient, presented the William Jarvey Mem- orial Award, given for good citi- zenship, to the co-winners, Donna Kuusisto and Ginger Stroube. Other nominees were: Mike McDonald, Kathy Magnuson, Patty Miron, and Mike S. Anderson. Ellen Mannikko received the Frank McKindles Award for the outstand- ing English student; Kathy Magnuson was named the band and choir scholar; Damon Talerico was named the boy athletic scholar and Donna Kuusisto was named the outstanding girl athletic scholar. Having a place in the scholarly pro- cession is indeed an honor that many students strive for. 56 57 Four very special people were honored as the year drew to a close: CLOCKWISE: Bobby Seppanen received an award from Mr. Gauthier for his outstanding work as assistant custodian in the I.E. Building. Mr. Ferdinand Paquet was presented a plaque as he ended his 29 years of service to the school. Mr. Don (Cookie) McKindles received recognition from the l.E.

And if I fail to learn this junk, I pray the Lord that I won't flunk. But if I do, don't pity me at all, Just lay my bones in the study hall. Tell my teacher I've done my best, Then pile my books upon my chest. Now I lay me down to rest, To pray I'll pass tomorrow's test. If I should die before I wake, That's one less test I'll have to take. - Sandra Johnson, Mendenhall, Miss. 83 SttuO Cf SS Pt y — (yv CAST: Allison McPhillips, Colleen Van Abel, John Perrow, Donna Kuusisto, Tibor Lanczy, Ginger Stroube Yvonne Goulet, Yvonne Whitman, Amy Ross, Renee Michels, Luanne Lambert, Kay Lanctot, Jim LaForest Mike McDonald, Jim Bertie, Scott Hiltunen, and Pam Selden. Mrs. Palosaari, Director. 84 ' f LosbfiJjy The plot centered around Ramses III, an ancient Egyptian mummy. He was lodged in Max Pepper's museum for temporary safekeeping while enroute to New York City. Professional thieves, jealous girlfriends, a bumbling sheriff, and more mummies, bodies, and walking wounded than one can count, all interrupted his travels and confused and delighted the audience. 85 Vote Students made the big decision between Ford and Carter in a mock election sponsored by stu- dents from the Government and Economics classes. Miss Higgins helped us make our choices by advertising the two major parties on her bulletin board. The whole process of voting, from registration to the actual balloting, was followed with careful detail. With one excep- tion, that is: LHS Voters re- elected President Ford. The whole event gave students an idea of how hard it is for voters to decide who should run our coun- try. 86 s Guifity (yv not- Gulfity ? The entire senior class had its day in court on April 28. Mock trials were conducted to instruct the students in the process of the law. In the morning session Amy Ross successfully defended Mike McDon- ald against a charge of Possession of an open container of alcohol in a moving vehicle. A jury of his peers found Don Kent guilty of Assault upon the Person of Scott Dillon in the afternoon session. It was an amusing and informative day for the seniors. And that's not perjury. 87 88 '•£{UfjDoy!” at Oj Pto tfr Seniors of all ages enjoyed the prom, ruled over by Queen Renee Michels and King Rick Browning. Members of the complete court were: L to R: Rick Browning, Renee Michels, Mike McDonald, Trudy Bianco, Don Kent, Sharon Daust, Tom Reed, Ginger Stroube, John Hill, Susie Ahlsen, Charlie Summers, and Yvonne Goulet. 89 90 S ufl'lS Qohv WM D aw L Rj oogiufeo+i ot mnJ £wi Bob Kissel and Bob Kemppainen received certificates from COACH AND ATHLETE MAGA- ZINE for their outstanding achievements.

Awards in special categories were presented, including shyest, best bod, best athlete, most dependable, most studious, and best dressed. 92 The seniors in chorus ended the program with a slide show accompanied by Somewhere from Westside Story and Today,” with words written by Allyson Cooley, Sharon Daust, Allison McPhillips, and Karen Marquardt. 93 jkb Begt uu iC| The LHS Class of '77 started its journey into a new world on June 5, 1977.

A number of very special people had just gone home after spending the first week of their vacations putting this yearbook to bed. I won't mention their names, but I want you to know about them. Many others also gave freely of their time earlier in the year but found it impossible to continue as spring approached. Their help was invaluable. Of the few people I will name, first is the Editor, Kathy Magnuson. A friend of mine used an expression which applies well to the tremendous amount of work she did, and to what she had to put up with. ,!It's been real. Real was never explained and had meaning only for those involved. Believe me, though, it was. Jim Penokie served as cameraman, darkroom technician, and whipping boy. For the first time, most of the pictures used were both taken and processed by the staff, mainly by Jim. Supposedly I helped, but as I said, mainly by Jim. He started from scratch, spent a lot of time, and did a fine job. There are others: Paul Kemppainen and The Professionals In Photography, Houghton. The advertisers, who cut the selling price of this yearbook in half. The teachers, administration, and staff, who allowed us to mess up schedules, interrupt classes, and add to the general confusion. Finally, you the reader, who supported the ENVOY this year. Thank you. Now turn the page, and take a candid look at some of folks who did all of the work and deserve all of the Advisor P.S. Any errors belong to the guy in the corner. 7k ENVOY EDITOR: Kathy Magnuson; BUSINESS EDITOR: Lisa Crawford; STAFF AND HELPERS: Don Holso, Amy Des- chaine, Denise Rice, Betty Delene, Cindy Biekkola, Sharon Daust, JoAnne Bianco, Joanne Cavanaugh, Allison McPhillips, Yvonne Whitman, Joe Ban, Allyson Cooley, Kurt Jacoby, Louis Moilanen, Shelly Maki, Ellen Mannikko, Gail Besonen, Henry Londo, and Jim Penokie; ADVISOR: Mr. Gudegast. 144 Taylof Publishing Company IlnsiCO M jft' Tu
