Vitalis DIRECTORS SET lit PACE THREE MEN- ARE responsible for the proper functioning and policy-making of Kasson-Mant- orville Junior-Senior High School. Throughout the year, their decisions prove vital to all con- cerned. The tasks of the administration seem endless. SINCE 1958, Superintendent Earl Vitalis has filled the head position in the KM school system. When Superintendent Vitalis is not occupying his office, he is away on school business. The month of February found Mr. Vitalis in New Jersey for a national administrators convention. The school's best interest is the impetus behind all his decisions. Principal Harold E. Haugo David Kirby, counsellor MR. DAVID KIRBY, in his third year as full time counsellor, is well acquainted with student problems. He has made standardized test programs an effective measure in student evalua- tion. Seniors, with an eye toward the future, find the “den” a place to glimpse after-graduation plans. MR HAROLD HAUGO became KM’s principal in 1957. His daily duties put him in a close con “t 5tt2rn™ Student council adviser. Mr. Haugo hear.the .Indent vo.ee” d.rect- ly. Secretaries Joan Jefferson and Rachel Tuttle The careful storing of chorus robes between con- certs is supervised by Mr. Gordon Gregersen. THE LIBERAL FOR THE FOURTH year, band and chorus have been offered as credit courses at KM. Combined with gen- eral music, second band, and junior high chorus, they make up a well rounded musical program. The in- troduction of music theory, especially emphasized in the second band, was a main reason for the changed status of these courses. BESIDES PERFORMING AT concerts and other pro- grams, members must show their ability by playing in- dividually for try outs which, to a large degree, deter- mine grades. A recent and welcome change in the music room was the addition of the new risers that improve acoustics and contribute to better contact between the directors and the students. in music Band director William Zesiger demonstrates scales to a junior high theory class. GRAMMAR AND COMPOSITION have been stressed this year as an important part of English. Starting in the seventh grade, students work up through more complicated and difficult phases. Besides grammar and vocabulary, nearly all the classes have been read- ing full length classics such as “Wuthering Heights,” “Lost Horizons,” “Merchant of Venice,” and “Silas Marner.” This often prompts a study of library ser- vices and habits. THE JUNIORS GAVE a variety of speeches to gain poise and control in public speaking. The sophomore journalism class studied the technique of editing a paper, and developed personal styles of writing through the two cub editions of the KoMeteer. Mrs. Naomi Bush, librarian, gives experienced advice to a student reader. A student's question about the Constitution is answered by Mr. Marvin Tenhoff in one sopho- more United States history class. SOME TYPE OF history is required of each class. The importance of history is its relation to present day society. Courses range from workings of Min- nesota’s government through ancient cultures and again to problems of the present day. Spirited dis- cussions on such topics as capital punishment and communist infiltration, as well as mock stock mar- ket investments and a study of income tax add to these classes. Current events are studied through TIME magazine in high school and CURRENT EVENTS magazine in the junior high. WORLD HISTORY AND geography in the junior high emphasize the growing of America through colonization and the American Revolution. THE RELATION OF history to a foreign language lies in the closeness of the world today and the con- tributions oif other countries to our heritage. JUNIOR AND SENIOR students of French gain knowledge of the history and the culture of France as well as a working command of the French lan- guage. Through recorded lectures and written exer- cises, grammar and conversational FYench were studied. in THE The Kuder Test, taken to deter- mine a student’s interests, is ex- plained to a student by Mr. James Sands. While students write at the beard. Mrs. Esther Bartel explains French conjugations to her first enr French students. Preparing to solve any mathematical problem, math teachers Mr. James Thorn. Mr. Duane Wolfe, a:!A Mr. Dale Timm inspect their instru- ments. NEW MATH METHODS, which include experimentation with various base num- ber systems, have been introduced in low- er math courses this year. This system is of prime importance because of the increasing use of computers in various phases of American life. AS THE STUDENTS move on, they are offered algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and solid geometry. Few math minded seniors are caught without their CRC books. The increasing interest in math and science has been demonstrated by the growth of classes. Trigonometry, which three years ago attracted five students, will soon expand to two classes. Modeis of the sun, moon, and earth are used by Mr. Kichard Rud to explain their cycles to his ninth grade science students. Id TUBE flno SPACE BIOLOGY BOASTED THREE separate hours for the first time. Taken by most students after a background of two years of general science, more and more students are following it with chemistry and physics. In these classes, actual ex- periments liven the class as do dissections of worms, crayfish, and frogs in biology. Through the use of “Oscar, the human torso. Mr. Edward Leuthner explains the workings of the lung to his eighth grade science students. Mr. Eugene Bartz helps a biology student adjust his microscope for a better view of a bacteria culture. in PRtPflRATion The major project of senior shop students is blueprinting and making scale model houses. Here, Mr. Charles Harmon advises three students. fQR fflf fUTURE THE VOCATIONAL TRAINING program is of special concern to juniors and seniors, for it gives preparation for jobs during the summer and after graduation. THE INDUSTRIAL ARTS award for the senior with the highest average in shop during the senior high years went to Dick Anderson. Two years ago his bro- ther won the same award. In the bookkeeping room, Mr. Lowell Fitzgerald finds that his students’ books are balanced after hours of tedious work. At a home economics kitchen unit, Miss Clotile Pease and two students try out a new recipe for candy. HOME ECONOMICS, BESIDES the usual cooking and sewing, introduces nutrition, grooming, and crafts to girls. Separate kitchen units are available for use, as well as a living room used to entertain children when child care is practiced. This year, the home ec depart- ment welcomed the help of a practice teacher, Miss Virginia Larsen, from St. Olaf College. As part of the agriculture course, the boys build pro- jects in the ag shop. Mr. Ernest Knudson checks the progress of a cattle-feeder with two of his students. Several Christmas ornaments displayed by junior high home economics students are admired by Mrs. Joy Engelstad. Mr. Vern Hus tests a few pieces of equipment before pf y. oo. class STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED by the state to take physical education from grades 7 through 10. These classes are filled with various activities such as softball and volley ball. Tournaments between classes encour- age a friendly competitive spirit. The trampoline and parallel bars are among the most popular of the equip- ment used to increase the students’ agility during a gymnastics unit. Minnesota Physical Efficiency' Tests are taken to determine the physical skills of the classes. The girls and boys also meet together once a week to learn old and new dance steps. Physical education students look on as Miss Muriel Arnold demonstrates a new dance step. tini e ms.mous.i Back Row: L. Dahle, J. Harris, P. Robertson, J. Parkin, R. Olson, C. Harris, M.

THR0U6H0UT THE yEflfi THE STIIDEUT VOICE THE DUTY OF the Student Council is to represent the school body and be the laison between the students and the administration and faculty. THE ACTIVITIES OF the council began even before school started. President Julie Tietje attended a workshop at St. Olaf College for one week during the summer. There she gained knowledge and ideas which she brought back to the council. Another summer act- ivity was the council’s working on the student hand- book. THE MAJOR PROJECT of the student council was to obtain money to sponsor an American Field Service in 1963-64. With the help cf the council, the school was beautified during the Christmas season. KATHY BURGESS AND Julie Tietje were KM’s rep- resentatives at the state convention at Worthington. IT WAS THE BEST OF TIMES - the excitement of the new and the strange - for Antonio Ruffo, AFS student from Bologna, Italy. IN THE CLASSROOM where the emphasis was not on classical learning as in his home school but on a general education for all students, Toni maintained an honor roll average. IN A SYSTEM where another kind of learning began after the last class bell rang, Toni found himself caught up in the world of extracurriculars. WRESTLING - there are no school sponsored sports in Italian schools. SPEECH - his interpretative reading, “An Italian’s Views on Capitalism-’ earned his a superior alternate rating at the district contest in Winona. THE WORLD OF EXTRA curriculars extended into the evening as he joined the cast of the senior class play. A STRONG INTEREST in science brought him to Science club and Photo club, and his interest in lan- guages brought him to French club. AND IT WAS THE BEST OF TIMES for the students of KM. For with Toni came an introduction to another culture, a look at our school and our ways through new eyes, and an interesting and interested classmate. Top Row: R. Albem, B. Andrist, J.

Schroe- THE JUNIORS FOUND that this year was probably the fullest one of their high school career. They be- gan by winning first prize in the homecoming parade with their float, “Liquidate Lake City,” featuring two mad junior scientists. TWO OF THE money making projects were the mag- azine drive and the class play, both of which provided fun besides money. FIVE JUNIORS COMPETED in the District-Speech contest at Winona. Ann Miller and David Skarie were members of the one act play cast. Susan Hannon and Rita Southworth went to the region contest on their superior ratings. THE MINNESOTA STATE Aptitude Test, and the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying test were taken by many juniors. The results of these have an im- portant bearing on one’s being accepted at college and for scholarships. PLANNING AND WORKING on the Junior and Senior Prom was the biggest project of the year. Pam Rob- ertson had a big job as Prom Chairman. Row 2: R. Sepin, B. Siem, D. Skarie, R. Southworth, D. Spilman, B. Suhr, M. Suhr, K. TePoel; Front row: B. Tvedt, E. Unger, J. Vangness, T. Walker, R.

The students for the first time studied specialized fields in science and mathematics. Study- ing everything from paramecium to pineapples. Sixty- eight discovered biology, thirty-eight found themselves studying the whys and wherefores of geometry. OTHER ELECTIVES WERE industrial arts, agricul- ture. home economics and journalism. Those studying the latter gained first hand experience by publishing two editions of the school paper. THE SOPHOMORES SPONSORED Kathy Burgess as their attendant at Homecoming and provided the bon- fire. THE CLASS HAD a worthy star both in wrestling and basketball. Dick Swalla was a contender at the state wrestling tournament and Dennis Segar was the second highest scorer on the varsity team. Top row: L. Aarsvold, D. Affeldt, R. Alrick, D. Anderson, S.

THE FRESHMEN YEAR brought to its students the new experience c'f writing research papers. The topics chosen for these science-English papers ranged from whitetail deer to scientific myths. DIFFERENTIAL APTITUDE TESTS and Thorndike I. Q. Tests brought another new expenience which later in high school becomes routine. THE FRESHMEN CLASS had many promising ath- letes, among them were Larry Olson and Dewey Olson, who wrestled on the A squad. Top row: N. Mickelberg, L. Mielke, M. Moen, D. Morris; Row 4: L. Morris, J.

Many otf the school’s activities were attended by the eighth graders. THE HOME ECONOMICS room at Christmas was a pretty sight As one walked it was possible to see such unusual things as macaroni trees, plastic bag wreaths, and Hilex bottle piggy banks. In industrial arts the boys made bookshelves, worked with electricity, mechanical drawing and woodworking. THE EIGHTH GRADERS were also introduced to their first junior high science course. THERE WAS HIGH interest and participation in sports and music. T venty-one eighth graders wore in second band and ten eighth graders in junior high chorus. The junior high chorus sang at the annual chorus and band Christmas concert. Top row: J. Aarsvold, D. Alrick, R. Anderson, J. Andrist, M. Baier, C. Beaver, J. Beaver, G. Blanchard, B.

The seventh graders studied English two hours every day to get the basic funda- mentals of our language in addition to studying the other required subjects. The class got off to a happy start with their float which won third prize in the homecoming parade. THE JUNIOR GAA sponsored Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine dances. Musical interest was high; thirty-one of the students participated in second band and seventeen in junior high chorus. Three-fourths of the boys participated in at least one sport. FOR THE FIRST time the home economic classes sewed skirts to match their cobbler aprons. In industrial arts the boys worked with wood, making knicknack shelves and block prints. THE SEVENTH GRADERS adjusted to junior high school quite easily. This is the first of many memorable years they wil have in high school. Top row: K. Fuchs, I. Gonzagowski, D. Greene, R.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS, one of the more active clubs, kept up a busy pace with their bi-weekly meetings and game concessions. THE MEETINGS WP1RE held in the various students’ homes. Besides the business meetings, reports on French culture and current events were given. The French foreign student from Owatonna, Claude Gueant, spoke on Christmas customs and life in France. Toni Ruffo also spoke at several meetings on school life in Italy. The reports were followed by recreation, usual- ly a French game, and lunch. IN THE SPRING the French Club went to Minneapolis to visit the language laboratories and audit a beginning French class at Macalaster College. Noon lunch con- sisted of a French meal at the Chateau de Paris in the Dyckman Hotel. This was followed by a tour through the Minneapois Institute of Arts in order to view paintings by the different French impressionist and classicist painters, such as Renoir and Monet. THE STUDENTS ALSO enjoyed masquerade, Christ- mas and bowling parties and a pot luck supper. Back row: L. Himle, S. Sell, J. Reynolds, S. Kleeberger, L. Allen, J. Harris; Row 3: L. Lampiand, L.

IfITO THE fUTURE The sale of hot dogs highlighted the French Club con- cessions during the football season. Claude and Tony drink to each other’s health at the potluck supper. THE BASKETBALL TOURNAMENTS are the most anxiously awaited activity of the GAA. Each year the members form teams, give themselves a name, and play against other teams. The team which wins receives a trophy which is displayd in the trophy case with the name of their team on it. THE SENIOR GAA went to play day at Mankato College Compus. The girls were divided according to grade and also into teams. Facilities for volleyball, basketbal, gymnastics, swimming and a trampoline were available. THE JUNIOR GAA sponsored dances at Halloween, Christmas and on Valentines Day. THE GAA ALSO sponsored hops and concessions and had a combined GAA-FHA slumber party. Back row: C. Beaver, B.

STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATED in speech this year found that hours of memorizing and practice w’ere necessary in order to achieve the desired superior ratings. Of equal importance also were poise, gestures, change of voice, and overall delivery. Mrs. Esther Bar- tel and Mr. Neal Lang helped these speakers attain the favorable level of presentation. SPEAKERS COULD DEVELOP their individual tal- ents in any of the following divisions: serious inter- pretation, humorous interpretation, original oratory, non-original oratory, story’ telling and the one act play. FOR THE SECOND year Mrs. Falkenhagen was the judge of the local contest. Fourteen students were chosen to appear at the district contest. Of these tw’o received superior ratings, and two were selected as alternates. SUPERIOR RATINGS WERE earned bv Sue Harmon w’ho presented her original oration, “Send Us More Squares,’’ and Rita Southworth, who delivered the non- original oration, “Can We Afford To Be Rich.” THE TWO ALTERNATES were Julie T:etie in the story telling division, and Toni Ruffo. who presented the humorous reading, “An Italian’s Views on Capital- ism.” Far Left: Mrs. Joyce Falken- hagen ponders as she judges the local speech contest for the second consecutive vear.

TH£ lUISDOfll Of CEflTUIS fll THEIR finGERTIPS THE LIBRARY CLUB tries to make its members aware of books, to show them the variety of things that one can get from books, and to build their love for books. THIS YEAR THE club set up a constitution and deter- mined its point system for getting pins. AN ART EXHIBIT was sponsored by the group on “Back To School Night.” Any student who desired could enter his work. These exhibits added much to the appearance of the library. REPORTS ON SUCH things as why should a person read, library vandals, the question of whether authors own their books and citizenship were given at the bi- weekly meetings. The members also listened to Shake- spearean records. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, the Library Club observ- ed Book Week, and other such events. At Christmas time, they sold Christmas seals and also had a Christ- mas party. flu. mi lorg Back J - Flepe,‘ J- HiU'ris- M- Boyum, L. Ranvek, A. Spicer, G. Thronson, R.

KM has been the top-money winning show at the Austin Fair for the last three years against compet- ition in Northern Iowa and Southern Minnesota. FOR THE SIXTH straight year the general livestock judging team has gone to the Minnesota State Fair. This year’s team brought home a third place rating and the chapter took fifth in the state. KM HAS TWO district officers in the local chapter. They are vice president, Bob Denny and treasurer, Wendell Engelstad. AT THE SPRING BARROW SHOW, the KM chapter took another first with its championship judging team among forty-three other schools from Minnesota and Iowa. DURING THE SPRING and fall the chapter operates a fifteen acre crop plot.

HERE DEADLINES WERE met, and policies were set. Facts were separated from fallacies, and student journalists presented the news as objectively as pos- sible. BEHIND THE SCREENS pictures were cropped, stories were written, copy was typed, verbs were fitted into headlines, and pasteups were made for the story of the year in print. FOR THE FIRST time in the history of its publication, the annual appeared in August, 1963, with one hundred pages. Editor ......................... Kathy Kellar Assistant Editor ...............

QUILL AND SCROLL, an international society for high school journalism, was founded to rec- ognize outstanding work done by high school students in writing, editing, or business manag- ing of school publications. FOUR YEARS AGO K-M became associated with this society. Every year since then top members of both publications have become members. Those chosen must be in the upper third of their class scholastically, besides having shown high quality in their services- Their names must be sent to the national office for approval. TO BE A MEMBER of this society is the top reward for the hours spent on publications. Standing: L. Lampland, D. Alberts, J. Harris, L. Himle, S. Lostegaard, P Robertson; Sitting: L. Terpstra, J.

AS THE STUDENT body filed into the gymnasium, three seniors garbed in blue or white robes stood be- fore a closed curtain surveying the audience. In a few minutes, they would tap nine members for the National Honor Society. WITH THE DIMMING of lights and the opening of the curtain, the fourth annual National Honor initiat- ing ceremony began., Dick Alberts. Judy Carlon. and Lee Lampland, tapped as members last year, conducted the impressive ceremony. Lee first read the explan- ation of the four qualities for membership; character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Judy and Dick in turn lighted the respective candles. After all the candles had been lit, Lee said: “Judy, will you please tap the first candidate,” and the long, tense process of picking nine new members began. AS EACH NEW candidate was escorted to the stage by one of the original members, another read his qual- ifications and another presented him with his pin and membership card. This year as each student mounted the stage, his parents were ushered on also. FOLLOWING THE TAPPING, Rev. Curtis Johnson of St. John’s Lutheran Church spoke on the deep impor- tance of character. That evening the new members and their parents were entertained at a tea by the PTA. REIGNING 0 ER THE Homecoming Festivit- ies for the class of 1963 was pretty Queen Julie Tietje with equally pretty candidates, Kathy Kellar and Phyllis Brown.

AND THE DANCE couldn’t have been a hap- pier one from the looks on the faces of those en- thusiasts after the game who would soon change into their Sunday best and dance to the music of Jerry Jerome. QUEEN JULIE CANNOT help but be one of the happiest queens ever reigning over KM be- cause of the complete success in every phase of our 1962 Homeeomincr. Margaret Fountain ARRIVING AT AN ancient Grecian Garden our ex- citement reaches a climax. We have been invited to a lavish ball by the emperor at his palace garden. HIS SLAVES, DRESSED in floorlength togas, sandals, green laurel wreaths and jangling arm bracelets es- cort us into the garden. VINE ENTWINED PILLARS surround the garden. Through the pillars we can see long stone tables. Del- icious-looking gold-colored grapes adorn the walls of the garden. The beautiful purple sky casts a luminous glow on the garden. THE FANFARE OF trumpets directs our attention to the center of the garden where the king and queen of the ball are about to be crowned. After they take their royal places, David Skarie, a member of the court announces Pam Robertson who welcomes the guests. Gaylen Threinen, one of the guests, thanks her for the welcome. THE FLOWING STRAINS of Henry Charles bring the guests to the center of the garden where the dance be- gins. As the dance continues, the people stroll back occasionally to their tables for cookies and punch. THE DANCE IS flowing smoothly, once more the trum- pets break in to announce a rest for the musicians. During this break, David Skarie presents Mike Laudon and Steve Kleeberger reading a late court member’s wilL AFTER IT IS finished, Rita Southworth and Carolyn Buchholz, a couple of fortune tellers prophesy the future. All are astonished at what lies in store for them. As a supplement to this rest, Mr. Tenhoff, a well known diplomat, gives a typical oration of the time, and everyone enjoys himself.

THE HILARIOUS SCRIPT of this three act comedy was supplemented with polished performances from Dave Skarie, a grouchy janitor, Pam Robertson, a soph- isticated teacher, and Jim Kujath, the principal of this school. OTHERS WHO MADE the play a success were: Chris Blaisdell, Judy Argetsinger, Sue Harmon, Candy O’- Meara, Mary Fiksen, Ann Miller, Barbara Sehroeder, Kathy Sackett, Jay Harris, Mike O’Brien, Ronnie Ol- son, Barry Dibble and Ken Loveland. MR. NEAL LANG directed this play with the assistance of Coralie Beaver and Bonnie Brown, student directors. THE JUNIOR CLASS had fifty-seven of their sixty- two members help make the play a smashing success. Left to Right: M. Horsman, G. 1'hreinen, L. Himle, L. Lampland, L. Terpstra, S. Lostegaard. M.

An old fashioned melodrama gave the audience a never-to-be- forgotten experience. A cast of eleven had rehearsed for four weeks in order to present their polished per- formance. MERT HORSMAN, the dastardly villain, enhanced the viewer with his very believable performance. His ob- jective was to take over the None Such Ranch and win hack his lady love played by Julie Tietje. But the hero Lucius Goodenough (Lowell Himlei foiled the plans. Along with a lady sheriff and Indian Squaw “The Curse of an Aching Heart” or “Trapped in a Spiders Web” was a howling success. DIRECTOR NEAL LANG was justly proud of the performance and the class presented him with an en- graved pen and pencil set showing their appreciation. 1(1 THE SPIDER'S HE Row 4: K. Boyum, C. Dresen, S.

The 6-0 score proved to be a double victory for the hard working KoMets. Not only did they regain possession of the coveted Little Brown Jug, they broke Zumbrota’s fourteen game winning streak which had been compiled over the past two years. WITH THIS BEING their best played game, the KoMets completed the year with a 4-2-1 record. This was good enough to give them undisputed possession of second place in the Hiawatha Valley League. The rushing department was led by halfbacks Denny Head and Bob Denny. Togeth- er they topped the 800 mark in yards gained. Denny Head led with 506 yards rushing for an average of 5.4 yards per carry. Bob Denny ended the year with 309 yards gained for 4.5 average per rush. THE KOMETS WILL long remember their 26-19 victory over Cannon Falls as they played be- tween the whistles of the KM athletic director and two teachers from the Bomber city. The reason that the professional officials didn’t show up was that they were scheduled at anoth- er town the same night The KoMets were down six to nothing at the half but came back to score thirteen points in the third quarter and thirteen again in the fourth to win by a touch- down. Denny Head will remember this game as the top rushing effort of his high school career, gaining 230 yards in 23 carries. This gave him a first down per cary or ten yards per rush. in in THE TEAM’S MAJOR disappointment was their final at Kenyon on the twenty-fourth of Octob- er in a game played in blowing snow and twenty degree weather. After winning four games successively, KM was stopped forty to thirteen. AS COACH LEUTHNER lightly philosophized after the last game: “If you are going to get beat, you might as well make it good.” RON OLSON WAS the KoMets passing threat this year, with a season total of twelve comple- tions for 217 yards. This gave him a respectable forty-eight percent pass completion record. His main target was Bob Denny who led the KoMets with eleven receptions and 237 yards gained. DENNY HEAD, LEE Lampland and Bob Denny led the scoring column with 71 points among them. Denny Head had five touchdowns and three extra points for thirty-three total points. Runner-up in scoring was Lee Lampland who had three touchdowns and two extra points for a total of twenty. Bob Denny ranked third with eighteen total points and three touchdowns. Top row: D.

With this victory KM received the sub-district crown and a chance to defend last year’s district three championship in tournament play. In district play, KM was eliminated in the first round 55 to 51 by Plainview, who went on to take the district championship. THE KOMETS COMPILED an over-all win loss record of eleven and eleven this year, with eight of the eleven victories coming in conference play. Even though only playing ball at a 50'; clin, KM placed third in the Hia- watha Valley League. Their 8-6 conference record put them right behind Kenyon and Lake City. INDIYIDUAL SCORING HONOR was captured bv senior guard Lee Lampland. His total of 277 points was 83 higher than runner-up Dennis Segar. Lampland had 101 field goals and 75 freethrows for 277 points, while sophomore forward Segar scored his 194 total points on 79 field goals and 36 freethrows. Senior for- ward Harold Wright ranked third in scoring with 164 points on 73 field goals and 18 freethrows. THE TEAM’S REBOUNDING ability was laid solely on the shoulders of KM’s three front line playere. To- gether Harold Wright, Steve Brown, and Dennis Segar had a total of 313 rebounds. This total was 477- of all rebounds KM had during the year. The rebounds total for the season came to 671 with 251 coming on our of- fensive board and 420 defensively. I Back row: S.

AT THE DISTRICT III tournament the following Fri- day and Saturday, the KoMets battled with Rochester for the lead from the opening matches. The end of the consolation matches found the KoMets ahead of Roch- ester by 1 point and with 6 boys in the finals. In the finals two won first place and four second, thus giving the championship to Rochester and the runner-up tro- phy to KM, another first for the KM wrestlers. ON FEBRUARY 23, six KoMet wrestlers went to Lake City for the Region I wrestling tournament. Of these six Dick Alberts and Dick Swalla won the right to ad- vance to the State wrestling tournament in Mankato March 1-2.

MOST EXCITING GAME of the year was against Lake City with the KoMets winning 1-0. Sophomore pitcher Dennis Segar allowed only a bloop single in the first inning for a brilliant one-hitter. Even more spectacular was the fact that KM’s lone run was a home run by Captain Mert Horsman in the fourth inning. This home run was one of two hits the KoMets could mus- ter all day in a real pitcher’s duel. AFTER HAVING TIED for the HVL Title, ‘Lake City and K-M tangled again in the finals of District III play. This time the Tigers came out on top giving the KoMets a 9-3 overall rec- ord. LEADING BATSMAN for the KoMets was Dick Swalla, sophomore right fielder, who con- nected for a solid .333 average. Runner-up was senior catcher Rich Lewis who hit .300 tuns. une I a Standing back row: H. Wright, M. Horsman, L. Himle, D. Holtan, S. Kleeberger, R. Denny, K. Boyum, S. Brown, W. Engelstad, M.

CLASS Of 1963 AS THE DAY OF May 27 was closing in on the seniors many different thoughts of reminiscence were passing through their minds. Many things have occurred during the six years that have passed since grade school. BACK IN MARCH of the year 1958, the year these seniors were in seventh grade the new school was ready. Wandering through the halls of the Mantorville school brings back many memories to the class of ’63. It was here they spent most of their seventh grade year. TWO HONOR ORGANIZATIONS have been added to KM during these years. They are National Honor Society and Quill and Scroll. THERE HAVE BEEN three foreign students at KM during this time. We have sent one to Italy. Toni Ruffo, a foreign student from Italy, is a member of the class of ’63. MUCH EQUIPMENT HAS been added to the many departments of the high school during this time. The library has added several volumes to help the students in research. The science department and the commercial department have added many things to aid the students in future life. THEN MAY 27 was here. Many eyes were filled with tears. It was hard for the seniors to think of leaving their second home for the last six years. “WHY BE SATISFIED with average when just a little more effort will make you someone special?” ask- ed speaker Roy Dunlop of the class of ’63. “It’s the added ten percent that makes the difference.” TO AN ORGAN processional forty-nine seniors, the smallest class since the consolidation of Kasson and Mantorville, approached the stage for their diplomas. Principal Harold Haugo presented the class to Robert Burdick, chairman of the board of education. VALEDICTORIAN MARIAN Lenz and Salutatorian Sharon Lostegaard led the class scholasticaly. Honor students named were Richard Alberts, Steve Brown, Judy Carlon, Wendell Engelstad, Lowell Himle, Kathy Kellar, Lee Lampland, Lonnie Terpstra, Julie Tetje, and Harold Wright. AT THE BACCALAUREATE service on May 26, Rev- erend Alden Keiski of the Methodist church gave the sermon and Reverend Henry W. Lancaster, Jr., of the Episcopal church, the invocation. Reverend William Buller of the EUB church opened commencement ex- ercises. MUSIC AT THE services was provided by Mrs. Dale Timm, organist, the high school chorus, and soloist Julie Tietje.
