OWt x EXPANSION The theme “Expansion was chosen for our Year Book with definite purpose, for it was this year that the Northwest-Minnehaha Advance was launched to meet the ever-growing demands of our school. The Expansion plans call for the early erection of a new auditorium-gymnasium, with ample equipment for chapel services, physical education, and music studios. The present gymnasium is to he remodelled into classrooms and administrative offices. Adding a very distinctive and unique appearance, a circular annex will connect the two present buildings into one complete unit. The future plans call for facing the entire campus and buildings toward the River Drive. The architect has sketched an attractive landscape with converging drives and walks. A high steepled chapel will eventually be erected on the corner of Thirty-first Street and Forty-seventh Avenue; this edifice will add much to the spiritual emphasis of the school. Yes—today Minnehaha confronts greater needs and broader horizons than ever before. We, as students, pray that this vision of our president, for a greater and better Minnehaha Academy, will soon materialize. Page Six REVEREND CLARENCE A.

The same old mob of laughing, riotous kiddies swarmed in every door; the same sounds of slamming locker doors, shuiiling feet, and screaming girls, all accumulated into one huge roar and swept through the halls. The long familiar odors of H S, burning cookies, and sizzling hamburgers drifted up from the Chemistry lab. Home Ec., and the lunch rooms, respectively. It looked to them like just another school year. And then there were the newcomers—we the Freshman herd. Bewildered little people hunting vainly for unnumbered rooms, we seemed desperate. Frightened creatures we were, tripped up and exploited at every turn by sneering upperclassmen. But, we seemed to possess definite characteristics that set us apart from previous Frosh. Along with us came a new president, Clarence Nelson, and several new teachers, who quickly became accustomed to eating aspirins between classes to soothe frazzled nerves. Chuck Starr was the chief of the illustrious tribe, on its start in higher education. Under his able directorship. committees were chosen to plan our first high school outing. Lots were cast, the decision favoring a roller skating party. This gala event took place at Skate-land in St. Paul, with most of the class in attendance. Other highlights of our Freshman year included, of course, the Mixer, and the first homecoming held at Minnehaha. The year wound up with a deer's head being discovered in John Painter's locker, a mob fight ensuing. DEAR DIARY September 4, 1944 The class of '47 grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with no one. For wisdom we had Dave Brush, for stature we had Pete's big feet; and those in favor with no one, the “Nuggets”. Our bold and gallant leader, Dave Park, led us onward to new and dizzy heights. Droves of sophomores congested Miss Fellroth's office all hours of the day as result of over-activity in class. Big Pete and Bob Reedy tied for top honors in this department, the latter shooting Mrs. l-cister in cold blood with a pop gun. The Mixer came ofT with several couples representing the class. Chuck Starr and Bev Gustafson, Rog Sifford and Betty Safely, Dayle and Doreen, and “Peanuts and Helen Person headed the list. The parties were terrific. A treasure hunt was held at Horcshoc Bend where groups hunted vainly for the treasure consisting of two hundred gold coins in the denomination of one cent. The other was in the form of a skating party held at Powderhorn Park. A good time was had by all! The climax to our social events was Homecoming when several of our athletes received letters for the first time. There were the usual symphony concerts; however, this class livened them up with gigantic snow ball fights on the way over. At the door the good Professor furnished everyone with a bag of |� canuts and some gumdrops to munch during the concerts. Several of our number joined Dayle and Eber in the Singers. Out of this group a quartet was formed which was destined to great fame. After setting an all time high for trips to the office, the class of 47 set its sights for greater achievements in its Junior year. DEAR DIARY: September 5, 1945 Our Junior year started ofT with a bang. Rooms were numbered. Traffic lanes were established with the stairways lettered “Up and Down . Miss Fcll-roth did a wonderful job keeping the traffic moving in the main hall. All autumn the football team practiced faithfully for their inter-squad game at the end of the season. Many of our classmates won fame and honor on the school's last six man football team. This year found us entering into many upper class activities. J. S. and Antler committees were selected, both of which left their tasks to the last minute. Stuffed ballot boxes installed Phil Olfelt as gavel Page Fourteen Continued on page 24 SENIORS SENIOR CLASS Motto............Our aim success; our hoj c to win Colors ................ ....... ..

In his administration the class elected to change their style of rings. Another noteworthy incident was the commission of the quartet formed last year, as the King’s Messengers. Pete, John, Dayle, anti Danny were kept in constant demand throughout the school year. It was quite a year for the music department with the Singers engaged for several out of town concerts. Mr. Pearson was kept busy during the year explaining to audiences the significance of the many-colored bow tics. Tile Alumni outdid themselves at homecoming with booths, rides, and eats all combined into a smooth running event. Our class was represented in the royalty by Arloa and Corinne who attended Queen Lois Peterson. Powderhorn Park once again felt the brunt of this class when they took to the ice one sub-zero Friday night. Bill Peterson, Buss, and Woody helped park the basketball team to second place honors in the conference. After dumping Pills-bury in the first game of the tournament they were defeated at the hands of a superior Shattuck five. Danny Pearson was chosen to lead our class the last half of the school year. The main event of this spring semester was our first J. S. Without a doubt, it was the most successful one ever put on. Led by toastmaster Park the program moved along smoothly. The King's Messengers and a picked octette furnished music for the evening. Blessings wished on the Junior class by C. Lindstrom were followed by the handing down of the shoes. The banquet closed with singing of the first ten stanzas of the school song. From there the mob headed for Excelsior with E. Nicols in the lead. DEAR DIARY: September 6, 1946 We've reached our Zenith!! We have ceased to count by years and now think of the proximity of graduation in terms of days. This year introduced eleven man football to our gridiron. Could anyone ever forget the first game? Eleven red-clad warriors from the city ground an inexperienced Zumbrota team into their newly tilled field. Entertainment was Pog« Tw«nty-four furnished at the half by Zumbrota’s Corn Band. This was followed by several defeats. Tlic mixer was sparked by Stuart Anderson’s marriage of Joy CIcnck to Mr. Mooney. Oz Black, guest artist, caricatured members of the faculty and student body; refreshments followed. This year, 1946, marked the formulation of the Minnehaha Advance. The Singers gave added momentum to the Advance by their one week's tour o! Minnesota and Wisconsin. Because of their experiences with farm life during the trip. Bcttic I ou and Otlie” determined that this should be their life vocations. The student body played an important part in this program with the contribution of more than $700. Under President Virgil Johnson, the senior class contributed a goodly share toward the new gymnasium. Virgil together with the student council, also planned a snow day carnival which was held in place of our annual homecoming. An afternoon of tobogganing anti skating was climaxed by a hockey game with St. Paul’s Murray team and a basketball game with the alumni. King Elwood and Queen Marge reigned during the festivities and were crowned in an evening program. The King’s Messengers, who provided music for the evening, were mimicked beautifully by a girls’ quartet. I lowcvcr, the highlight of our senior year was the formation of a new activity, proudly named by starry eyed members, the Young Married Couples Club, leaders of this select group arc Buss Peterson and Paul Perkins, the latter being tricked into the position. Continued on page 25 As John Anderson, our last president, took office, a revised form of student government was enacted. Penalties were placed on pupils with unlocked lockers, monitors prowled the halls, and unruly students were brought before the Discipline Committee. Now, as we look uj on our remaining days at Minnehaha, we see that everything is in readiness for our commencement. Pictures have been taken, announcements and cards have been ordered, and all details have been attended to. And so, as we the class of 47 depart, building materials arc being ordered with which to repair the damage done by this, the greatest of all Minnehaha graduating classes.

Pag® Twenty-4 v n Prophecy For the Class of '47 Have you heard about the new M.A.? That was the question put before me by Nat Houck, the inquiring commentator, so I decided to see for myself (nosey, don’t you think—or don't you?). But after all, it has been at least ten years since my graduation from dear old M.A. Having returned in my private helicopter, which I had left parked atop the Nicollet Hotel, I found it necessary to make my way to my dear old Alma Mater by means of street car. To my surprise whom did I see when I boarded the street car but Earl Nicol, the conductor. The billboards along the way were decorated with the fine art of Ronny Johnson. John Anderson and Paul Gravcm were discussing the “Hcdlund Theory of Lewitivity while leaning on their brushes during their time-out period from their heavy street cleaning duties. “Extra! Extra! shouted Marcella McHenry, as she stood on the corner of Twenty-seventh and 1-akc Street selling morning papers. Dorothy Zachau, jxv licc matron, was warning the city to lie on the lookout for a dangerous escaped school teacher, Marion Carlson. When getting off the streetcar, we saw Dick Ness, the friendly cop who directed the busy traffic to M.A. As we joined the merry crowd and approached the campus, we saw Paul Perkins raising the flag. He told us that Lois Hanson had finally attained the much coveted position of janitress. Inside, we were heartily welcomed by Don Wold, president, and Car olyn Luitjens, principal, who told us to make ourselves at home. Don happily announced that his typist, Phyllis Stillman, had just won an award for speed typing. As we strolled down the hall, we heard the stern voice of Margarctha Reedy, teacher of public speaking. Gayle Payne, faculty supervisor of monitors, asked for our passes. Dayle Erickson, the new “Prof.”, and Carl Knutson, (Jr. that is), journalism teacher, greeted us in the hall. We took the Fast” elevator service, run by sisters Ailclinc anil Frances, to fourth floor. On the sun deck, wonder of all wonders, Jerk Jernberg was giving the team a workout. Little Jr. Gissclquist had just been taken off the team for flunking advanced algebra, so says teacher Dorothy Anderson. Chuck Starr was the director of the new observatory. Before chapel we decided to take a short tour of the campus. Avis Stadsklcv, house mother of the new dormitory, told us that “Waxy” Johnson would present the chapel message, while Bonnie Anderson was to render a vocal solo. After chapel hour we hailed a taxi driven by— guess who?—Don Klatkc. According to the latest, Rog Seashore was modeling chothcs for Esquire, and Paul Fredrickson had given up waiting for the Bloomington car and was patronizing Klatkc’s Cab Service. Oh yes, Dave Miller was supervisor of the pea shelling department for the Campbell's Soup Cx ., and Kenny Allen was a super-salesman for Pop-nut Skrummys. Eugene Olson was still the main supporter of the Roosevelt alumni, and we don't mean the President. Waddy Bratt was working in a clothing factory putting white stripes on brown dress pants. For added enjoyment we turned on the cab’s radio just in time to hear Ruth Nygren and her noonday news. Good afternoon. Secretary of War, Ralph Olson, and Rear Admiral Tom Sodergren have just come to an agreement over the controversy raised by Margy Nordrum and Carol Swenson, milliners for designing spring hats carrying concealed weapons. F:lash! The eminent physicists, Dave Brush and Ted Berg, have reported great success in the trial run of their newly perfected motor scooter. Pat Carlson, I rof. of I’hysics, has been awarded the Nobel prize. Big Pete has won the World Figure Skating Championship in Denmark last week. Bonnie Carlson has just divulged her secret formula for curly hair. Clyde I.ecdbcrg. prominent orator, has accepted the nomination for I rcsident in 1960 on the Socialist ticket. In Tampa, J7lorida, Woody has been made the Charles Atlas of 1957. Being unable to bear the success of our fellow members, we switched off the radio. We were narrowly missed by a Dodge tow-truck driven by Doreen Anderson; Maggie Opsahl’s Ford was the object of her efforts. As we alighted in front of the Hasty Tasty, Helen Lundberg dashed madly out to open the door. The hostess, Bev Gustafson, directed us to our table. Sitting at one of the tables was Evie Eskew, our gossip columnist friend, who met us there for lunch. Betty Vcldcy and Donna Smith were waitresses there. Our dinner music was furnished by the We Slay ’Em” quartet, consisting of Joyce Palm, Phyllis Otteson. Betty Safely, and Glady Wibeto. who were just back from a concert tour. Evie was bursting to tell us the news. Bob Reedy, I3avc Park, and Phil Olfelt had just organized the Wizard’s Progressive Administration—another W.P.A.

Margie Anderson couldn’t improve on her name—last one, that is, and Allen Larin realized that he was the “marryin’ ” type. Pat Olson was out hu-“Ray -in the Marines, while Little Pete was still foot loose and fancy free. Bill LeVahn and Bev Fredericks had both gone into the wrestling profession, joycc Al-win had gotten a job as 'cellist' with the Minneapolis Symphony; we were sad to learn that La Verne Wall had finally given up trying to play chopsticks. Betty Borg and Ar King arc Johnson Wax saleswomen. Virg lohnson may not have been a king but he has one. Alice Berg was kept busy typing out the little Bridges homework and Jackie Hipp was raising carrots to feed her little carrot tops. There was a hubby in Ruth Irving's future. Aura May Hanson had taken over Mayor Humphrey's job. Marilyn Erickson was making big money in the bubble gum business! (Jerald (the vet) and Everct Peterson were co-artists of that smash hit comic Ceve Stanyon . Mary Ringdahl and Joan Pearson had been expelled from Yale. Lorraine Nelson was just living happily ever after with Cucss who? Bill Phillips was president of the Babe “Ruth Candy Co. Cirol Nelson started wearing dimple pullers and had landed a job at the White Castle. Norma Benson was on the It Pays to be Ignorant program and Wilmcr Francine was one of the regulars on “Information Please .

Beverly Magnus was still the head squeak at 1 loves, and Arlycc Lundberg and Mary Gronvall were operating the Personality Plus Studios. Inc. Clarence Hagman was busily engaged in a nursery—(plants, that is). Rose Wallin had finally found her ideal man, but Marguerite Crawford was an avowed spinster. Carol Crowell had gone from one of the Singers to another—the latter a sewing machine store. Carolyn Johanson was a world traveler and lecturer on the “Russian Problem ; and Eva Joan Gilbertson was still having quite a struggle trying to get enough credits to graduate from high school. Bussc Peterson heads the “Drive Safely Club in Minncajxdis. There were a couple of Johnsons (Donna and Betty) who had just made their name famous by proving that Macbeth did not write Shakespeare.

After two weeks of practice, we had our first scrimmage with University High. Although they were outscored 2 to 1, the Indians played good ball and gained some valuable experience. Our next scrimmage was with Wayzata High; at the end of the battle, the team was in front 2 to 1. Although the warriors were beaten in all but one game, we feel that for the first year of eleven-man competition, the team gained some very valuable experience. With another year or two, we should see the Indians on the long end of the scores. Poge Forty three 1947 Starters Hiiclrficld—(i. Peterson. C. Starr, R. Channel , E. Larson Line -W. Peterson, I).

The team was organized shortly after Christmas vacation with about twenty men reporting for action. The team's first encounter was with Roosevelt High in which they were beaten four to one. This defeat, however, was a moral victory considering that Roosevelt was favored to be city champions. Next the team moved out to defeat Southwest High five to two. From there the story is short and sweet. The uniforms seen on the players were new this season furnished by the school. These suits were greatly appreciated and no doubt helped to drive the fighting six to third place in the conference standings.

It was well past noon, the buses rounded the corner, the air tingled with the excitement of the eighty who were clammering into the buses. The first glorious chord was struck and the Singers were off. The first note was middle C, or as the map had it, Minncajxdis. Mingled emotions were evident in the first movement. It began with majesty and grandeur, as the buses left the city. The next was a change to a light staccato as the eighty laughed anJ talked. There followed a slight rustling and confusion. caused by the opening of bags of goodies. Momentary silence and calm resulted when the eighty mouths were temporarily crammed with food. A sudden slop—with lots of noise—was the interpretation of the arrival at Dassel. The evening’s concert was interesting. The audi- ence filled the scats, so, between numbers, the Singers found the only vacant space to be back stage behind a curtain where certain individuals amused themselves with an open door and handfuls of snow. The hurry-scurry-jmsh-and-scramble to line up silently” before each number was literally hilarious. The evening’s message by Reverend Nelson was inspiring and enlightening to many. Thus ended the first movement. The second theme was in the key of D and typified the jaunt to Ellsworth. Light, fluffy, snowlike music and the smile and warmth of the sun introduced this movement. The Singers were thrilled and inspired by the cordial welcome and wonderful foot!. While the quartettes and trios went into the corners to harmonize and tune-up , many of the others Continued on page 66 Page Fifty-nine M. A. CHOIR Row t: Lrft fo right: A. Gjcsdahl. M. Hanson, M.

In the afternoon all the weary students gathered at Powderhorn to see a hockey game with Murray High. In the final minutes, Murray made a goal to win by the score of -1 to 3. After the game, everyone gathered in the school dining room for dinner. In the evening a basketball game was played with the Alumni. The final highlight of the day was the crowning of our King and Queen, Woody I irson and Marge Anderson. Marge’s attendants were Honnic Carlson and Doreen Anderson. Pag® Sixty-four Minnehaha's annual Christmas program was presented on the afternoon of Friday, December 20. The portion of the program following the candle lighted processional, was narrated by Prof. Carroll. The group numbers on the program were presented by the Choisters, the Singers, the King's Messengers, the Ambassadors, and an instrumental ensemble. A Christmas reading was given by Beverly Johnson, and a piano solo was presented by Arthur Alan Olson. Greetings were extended by our president. Rev. Nelson. The program was most fittingly concluded by the Choristers’ very fine rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus from the “Messiah . Pag® Sixty-five The Singers' Sonata Continued from page 9 found entertainment with the snow behind the church. The audience was made up of people from miles around, as it was a small country church. The processional led over a hot-air register which was very “inflating lor some. The acoustics were perfect and the church was beautiful. This, together with the help of the Lord, led to a beautiful concert.' Progressing to the key of E in the third movement to Triumph, the music began with a grand full chord and followed with light airy tunes. The concert was, as the city's name would suggest, triumphant. The program was held in the high school auditorium. As Indore every concert, the Singers—in their long white robes—humbly bowed their heads in prayer and asked God to invoke His blessing upon their efforts. That night, under God. and through Prof”, the Singers gave a wonderful concert. Following the concert, the Singers were presented to their various hosts for the night. The people were friendly and really out-did themselves in housing and feeding the Singers. The next morning the travelers were up early and by the time that the town was waking up, they were on their way to Willmar. The weather was made to order and this move-t.-.ent in the key of F was very much on the sharp side. Willmar was a larger town than the Singers had visited thus far, and the many stores invited the inspection of all. After lunch the Singers prepared for an unscheduled concert at the high school sscmbly. This proved to be a thrilling enterprise, and they were warmly received and tremendously applauded. After being introduced to their hosts, most of the Singers invaded the shopping district and squandered their money on anything that happened to strike their fancy. The concert of the evening was held at the city auditorium. The Singers were allowed to sit on the platform for the first time in the tour, but, try as they might, they could not hear the speaker because of the echo of the huge auditorium. The following morning when announcements were given, a telegram from “Louise Stocke and Arlene Anderson was read. The Singers were pleasantly surprised by this message from home and were glad to be remembered. The hop from Willmar to Warren, in the key of G as the pianist would interpret it, was very long, but pleasant. At first the buses plowed through many small towns, but further on there were very few of the small settlements. Some of the Singers had eaten too many sweets and became ill and then Mrs. Peikert, the nurse, was an “angel of mercy . After a few sniffs or swallows of ammonia, the sick were cured. Twice on the movement the pianist stopped. This was for prayer sessions which spiritually strengthened each Singer. In Warren, though the weather was cold, there was a warm reception. There four of the Singers gave their testimonies and Rev. Nelson spoke. The people were very receptive to the message. At the crack of dawn the music illustrated the journey to Duluth in the key of A. Knroutc they dined at a small church in Bemidji. Before eating, the Singers slopped to pay their respects to the statues of Paul Bunyan and his Blue Ox which stand on the shores of beautiful lake Bemidji. After eating. the Singers gave a private concert to the cooks who prepared the wonderful meal. The Duluth concert had been anticipated because of Mr. Warner Sallman, the artist, who was to sketch his beloved “Head of Christ . The message was given by President T. W. Anderson. The entire program was thrilling and inspiring. The next morning, Saturday, the eighty Singers boarded their buses and headed home. The piano took up this movement in the key of B. It was a slow melodious movement interrupted only by a stop for dinner at Hinkley. When the Singers later arrived back in Minneapolis, they were sail at the thought of leaving the buses which had carried them so far. They rushed home, cleaned up, and returned to First Covenant Church for the final concert of the tour. The final concert was again highlighted by Mr. Sallman's sketching the famous I lead of Christ , and the wonderful message by President Anderson. This was the highlight of the tour anti was skillfully ended in the key of C, the key where the sonata began, only an octive higher. This rise symbolized the spiritual lift given to the thousands of hearers and to the eighty Singers. Page Sixty-six 1. The true domestics. 2. What! No pin-striped suits? ?. Ride 'em, cowboy. 4.
