Just as ► j the Vikings of Northern Europe have lived in memory, j so will the Vikings of Flint Northern. The Vikings of 'yf } Europe were courageous and adventuresome, worthy of the fame they won. Through the years Northern Vikings have carried on this distinction. The year of 1962-63 has brought us many adven- tures in sports, studies, activities, and organizations. Our sports have strengthened us, our studies have enlight- ened us, our organizations have inspired us, and our activities have united us. V These adventures have brought us many memories, which will live on through the years in the Noroscope of 1963. j Jy tpV'V’VL'’’ Table of Contents ....................................page v Activities...................................page 6 faculty .....................................page 28 Organizations ..............................page 60 .0 • Seni°rs................ ■■ 80 - y .ps i VJ° Ar Undergrads page 108 J KX W SP°rts 128 k S-- ' JS W J ? 1 '. (F s We honor with dedication . . . Mrs. Magdalene Rhodes The word dedicate has a significant meaning . . . it means to set apart for a purpose . . . men dedicate themselves to God . . . men dedicate them- selves to their professions . . . monuments have been dedicated to those who gave their lives for their country . . . therefore, a dedication should be a meaningful and rewarding event ... its benefactor should be deserving of its acclaim in every respect . . . and so with these thoughts in mind, we dedicate the 1963 Noroscope to Mrs. Magdalene Rhodes. Always most generous with her time, Mrs. Rhodes has taught Senior English to many seniors who have benefited by her great intellect, skillful teaching, clear insight, and keen wit. She has been symbolic to us all . . . and in all capacities ... as a real friend. We count ourselves fortunate to have her and her dynamic personality part of Northern, and in this small way we wish to acknowledge her many con- tributions to Northern High School, by dedicating the 1963 Noroscope to her. Mr. Merton Vincent These halls just wouldn’t be the same without the familiar face of Mr. Merton Vincent who is always ready with a smile for everyone. Besides being friendly and cheerful, he has the fine traits of understanding and kindness. Mr. Vincent is known by most Vikings as a teacher of Personal Security Education and Math. During his years at Northern, he can be accredited with teaching a wide variety of subjects, including chemistry, physics, and commercial work. His stu- dents can all testify to the fact that he has done an excellent job, and is conscientious both to his stu- dents and his work. It is teachers like Mr. Vincent who help keep the great Northern reputation, and make the Vikings so proud. He truly is a fine example of a teacher, the kind that is not easily forgotten. Every Viking realizes how lucky we are to have had such an excellent teacher on the faculty. We hope that dedicating this 1963 Noroscope to Mr. Merton Vincent will be a small token of our ap- preciation. 3 Ring Out The Praises To Her Name . . . First days are busy ones ♦ Cheryle Vivian seems happy with her program change while Dennis Smith looks slightly worried about his schedule. After a week of orientation, sophomores, Jim Toole and Betty Anderson, are accustomed to classroom rules. Karen Medich and Mary Hughes help Mary Morrissett, Cheryle Vivian. Lunch is a time for fun, as Jacquie Church and Sue Stapp, and Valerie Hoffman take advantage of their voting rights. Sharon Hinkley show. ‘‘This is the third one I’ve licked today.” Jerry Mallory, Joan Stallings, Patricia Weir and Calvin Roberts don’t seem too enthusiastic about book stickers. Relating summer experiences are Marsha Ingman, Barb Dobbs, and Mary Morrissett. 6 Winter wonderland . . Operation Amigo Benvindos Amigos” . . . Upon arrival, the amigos attended a luncheon at Hotel Durant. Sue Stapp Mr. Charles S. Mott and amigo spokesman. Paulo and Mr. Guy V. Houston are getting acquainted with Selma Spinelli. Pimentel, are busy talking. Excitement ran high upon the arrival of the Brazilian stu- dents as they made their first appearance at a football pep assembly. All of the students were thrilled to meet their new friends. Mrs. Welker explains the operation of the voting machine to Brazilian students, Sergio Weschler, Octavio Sampaio, and Maria Junquiera. Learning of Flint’s government are Paulo Pimentel, Selma Spinelli, Nilza Branco, and Roberto Lima with Mayor Mobley. 8 “Operation Amigo” was a program designed to strengthen friendship between Latin America and the United States. Twenty-five Brazilian students came to live with Northern students. The“amigos”, a word meaning friend, corrected misunderstand- ings about this country or just increased their knowledge. There were excitement and fun from the time the “amigos” arrived until they left, almost three weeks later. Besides going to classes here, they took many side trips. They visited Flint’s City Hall, partici- pated in a round table discussion with civic leaders, went to Flint factories, other Flint schools, Lansing, and the Universities of Michigan State and Mich- igan. Many parties were given in the amigos’ honor. With so many social engagements, the people of Flint and the Brazilians had a chance to exchange ideas and customs. Arriving at Northern to observe our school system are Francisco Fraga with his host Gary Jedynak, and Maria Degi. Laying out The North Wind are: Cynthia Mayers, Sue Salnave, amigo Selma Spinelli, Sue Stapp, Lee Ann Plew, and amigo Fernando Roccolini. Our cheerleaders, Linda Harper and Lois Michaud, teach some of Northern s cheers to amigos Carlos Strazzer, Maria Junquiera, Clovis Zanetti, and Elza Lemke at their first American football game. Ines Imperatriz and Pedro Janini demon- strate the amigos’ favorite dance, the Samba. Dancing filled many of their hours. 9 10 The annual College and Ca- reer Day was again presented for the students of Northern. The sophomores and seniors, who chose to, went to the Career Car- nival, which was held at Ballen- ger Field House this year. Stu- dents that remained in Northern attended various classes on occu- pations of their interest. The College and Career Day is al- ways a great opportunity for the students of Northern to discover the occupations that they have qualifications for. The College and Career Day was a wonderful success and we will be waiting to welcome it again next year. 11 The teachers go out for lunch . . . 12 Her Majesty The Queen Student Council president Rudy Nichols presents Linda Harper, homecoming queen, with the traditional bouquet of red roses, during the ceremony at half-time. Members of the homecoming court are: (standing) Sue Wartella, Mary Peck, Marcia Lander and Jill Marlette; (sitting) Jan Stall- ings, Queen Linda Harper, and Jean Rockafellow. Northern’s fourth annual homecoming was held October 5. The unannounced queen and the court were presented to the stadium audience in pink and white decorated convertibles during the half-time of the Northern-Saginaw game. The court members were escorted down the 50-yard line by their fathers, while the band played “I Enjoy Being A Girl.” They assembled in front of the marching band where Student Council president, Rudy Nichols, crowned Linda Harper, the 1962 homecoming queen. Linda Harper Homecoming Queen 13 ’Cheer her on to greater fame ff The girls who showed the most spirit, willingness to work, and ability, according to the judges, were chosen for this year’s Junior Varsity cheerleading squad. The girls are: Beth Cot- ton, Marcia Lander, Linda Nowak. Pam Borey, and Jill Marlette. October 8 was the day for try-outs for the Junior Varsity Cheerleading Squad in which about 50 girls participated. In order to try out, the sophomore girls must have a B average and the juniors, a C average. This, combined with a lot of enthusiasm, spirit and general appearance makes an ideal cheerleader. Un- der the direction of the co-captains, the Varsity Squad trained the girls so they would be fully qualified to take their place some day. After a week of practice, the girls were narrowed down to 15 finalists who prac- ticed another week for the finals. Of this group there would only be five chosen to be cheerleaders. All the tiresome practice and hoping came to an end on Oc- tober 22 when our Junior Varsity was chosen. Some of the most spirited girls around Northern are our Var- rington, Jan Stallings. Gloris Hernandez, Jeanette Saseen, sity cheerleaders. In one of their formations are: Jackie Har- Linda Harper. Lois Michaud, Sue Grekela, and Linda Cuz. 14 Viking spirit on display . . . Above, members of our Pep Club, Jan Withers (pub- licity), Dean Heath, and Sandy York (treasurer), check over the Block-N formations on their paper. At left, looking over the cards are: Alida De Young (secretary), Rudy Nichols, Carol Rutter (vice president) and Sue Kribs (president). Below are two pictures showing the finished product of the Pep Club’s effort. 15 Cheer though the score be great or small . . Our traditional Thanksgiving Pep Assembly again aroused the spirit throughout the halls of Northern. At the left is our principal, Mr. Houston giving his last pep talk before a football game. He announced his retirement before the student body at this time. Although the excitement of the coming game was great, a hush of regret settled over the students as Mr. Houston told of his leaving. Below is the band playing the National Anthem as the students stand facing the flag. At the bottom a group of loyal Vik- ings takes time out from eating to help yell the cheers, led by three of our cheerleaders. The Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs and the Choir joined in this time of excitement to sing the Alma Mater while standing in the formation of the big “N”. Northern’s mighty Viking came to give encouragement to the players as the cheerleaders go into formation around him. The Viking spirit is always at its highest on this day to give the team the best support. 16 n Behind the players are the speakers which aroused the con- tinuous cheering, heard during the pep assembly. Coaches Ed Krupa, Pat Arsenault, Fred Crawford, Bill Adams and Principal Guy Houston were there to give their support to the team. Students Barbara Jones, Skip Littlefield, Dave Shaw, and Rudy Nichols added their comments on this im- portant game. Former graduates John Pelc and Tom Evans also spoke at this special event. 17 Showboat “Showboat,” our 1962 Talent Show, was held April 15 and 16 in the Henry Cook Auditorium. This was the first time this annual event took place in the new auditorium. The curtain rose on a scene typi- cal of the days when showboats ran on the Mississippi River. Captain Mike Hansen and his first mate, Craig Koepke, introduced each act. From the first act to the final closing of the curtain, a variety of entertain- ment was presented. On this page some of the performers are shown in their acts. Our talent show not only showed the students entertainment talents, but also their ability to work together behind the scenes. Sophomores, jun- iors, and seniors who worked long hours on “Showboat” were rewarded by its success on opening night. ‘Calypso’ was the theme of this dance act by Iynn Corbin is seen singing her solo, Joyce Coleman and Chris Brown. “Wouldn’t It Be Luverly ’. Members of the sextet, Chris Stevens, Sharon Boone, Mary Abraham, Thelda Schwartz and Karen Wagner, watch as Mary Paul practices the gestures to “I Enjoy Being A Girl”, which the group sang. Putting on smiles for the camera, as they finish their act, are Sue Stapp and John Norton. “I Want to Be Loved By You” was the title of their song and dance number, which they are rehears- ing. These two were among the many who eagerly anticipated the opening of “Showboat”. 18 Merry Christmas to all . . Above, Angela Davis is seen as solo violinist for the Christmas program. Right, attending the faculty tea are: Miss Van Ness, Mr. Adams, Miss Powers, Mr. Sventko, and Miss Rankin. Below, Peggy Palmer admires Miss Dillon’s Christmas display. Right, Rudy Nichols and Lee Ann Plew decorate the Christmas tree, that was located in the foyer. ♦ 19 he Autumn Leaves of red Many parks placed throughout the gym transformed it into a lovely autumn scene. Among the scattered leaves were park benches giving an invitation to relax and enjoy the music as Carlos Strazzer. Brenda Benzar, Connie MacArthur, Nelson de Melo, Brian Hill. Clint Rogers, Michelle Brouwers and Carol Weisgerber are doing. and gold . . . Sharon Helmkamp and Bob Hastings were among the many students who had their pictures taken at the prom. The setting had a weather-worn shut- ter with a colorful bush growing near it. Strolling through the park are Aloysio Camargo. Ann Bickley. Mary Peck. Dean Heath. Norma Ingalls and Rudy Nichols who stopped in the garden to chat over the evening’s events. The gardens looked as if Jack Frost had already made his trip as the leaves had begun to change colors. Sheryl Fuzi and John Atkinson also posed for pictures and like others they kept them for souvenirs of the prom. 20 Mr. Bumgarner and Mr. Bentley helpfully pour the cider. November 16 is just a memory ... a memory of the Junior Prom, “Autumn Leaves,” the semi-formal dance which started at 8:30. A vocalist and the Bel- tones, a seven piece band, provided the entertainment. The refreshment table was laden with bowls of cider and plates of doughnuts for everyone to enjoy. At 11:30 it was time to depart but not before one backward glance at the “Au- tumn Leaves” of red and gold. Taking time out to talk are: Greg Emerton, Ann Cuthbertson, Ellen Werschky, Dale Rowe. Ron Davenport. Donna Fankhauser, Karen Hill and Dave Fayram. Georgann Wolbert and Eldon Lurvey Sandy Bailey and Ron Franks Admiring the cat, part of the setting are: Steve Thompson. Joan Talarico.

Alice Bailey, Flora Leslie, Mae Vern Gray, Ioia Bingham and her sister, Tonya Miller, Marylin Boyer, and Connie John- ston are modeling their clothes in the “Garden, before the audience of their mothers and friends. With the combined efforts of the sewing classes, Mrs. Brewer and Miss Van Ness, the fashion show “Gingham Gardens” was presented. The “Garden” had many bushes and trees, which were decorated with a multitude of gaily colored scraps of material representing leaves. This made a striking background for the girls to model the clothes they had worked on so diligently. Listening attentively to Pam Smith’s questions, suggestions and compliments on her fashion creation is Carol Lackie. Kathy Webster and Roselia Dodds admire their handicraft. Mrs. Laura Brewer and Miss Lois Van Ness, the sew- ing instructors, are commenting on the accurate sewing Doris Tisdale did on her garment. Geraldine Hall listens so she can get ideas for another style from the discussion. 24 Michigan week at Northern . . . Northern observed Michigan Week May 20-26. Each morning a broadcast was presented, which explained these days: Govern- ment Day, Hospitality Day, Our Livlihood Day, Education Day, and Our Heritage Day. In a spe- cial edition, The North Wind in- formed us of Michigan Week events. On May 24, exhibits from clubs and classes were displayed, some of which are pictured. Later, a program was given in the auditorium, at which Mr. Ted McLogan spoke on ‘Con- Con’ and the choir sang. Testing Mr. Sheick’s reaction time are Chris Stevens and Dotty Ennes.

It is with regret and a deep loving respect that we must close a chapter in Northern’s history, as we make note of the retirement of our beloved principal, Mr. Guy V. Houston. No other indi- vidual has been more dedicated, or given so much of himself so whole- heartedly, as Mr. Houston. He has donated much of his life to help give Northern the great spirit and fine tradi- tions of which it can be proud today. As Northern’s football coach, he was the finest — always loyal, always look- ing for the best to challenge, bringing out the best in all with his encourage- ment, creating friendship all around him. Under Coach Houston, Northern’s football teams have chalked up fifteen city titles, eleven Saginaw Valley crowns, one co-title, seven state cham- pionships, and have seen ten undefeated seasons roll by, for a record few coaches can match. It has been said, “There isn’t a person who isn’t his friend.” These words he lived up to as Dean of Boys and as Deputy Principal. His patience and understanding will long be remembered by many. As principal of Northern for the last ten years, Mr. Houston has been an excellent example of a leader. No other could have filled the position more ade- quately. No other could have done it so wholeheartedly, for he has had to take all the devotion he has learned over the years, and mix it together with the deep Thanks from a grateful student body . . . understanding he has of his fel- lowman, adding to it the joys and the heartaches he has known, and blending it carefully with a deep love for Northern that can only come from the heart. Over the years Mr. Houston has watched many students come and go, and he has touched a little into the lives of each one of them. Today they are spread across the world, but each one will remember the helping hand he got along the way. Each one holds a deep re- spect for a man SO dedicated. Pictured are Mr. Houston receiving his picture from Wally Dutkowski(’40); with Pug Bare With misty eyes we wish him and Matt Piotrowski(’37); at a pep assembly; as principal; with Mrs. Houston; in 1937; paint- all the best in the future, and ing by A1 Wa.hinpon('32) of coach’, dream, we know that he is leaving behind a part of himself, for it echoes and will continue to echo through the halls of Northern for all time. Our Principal Mr. Guy V. Houston 29 Our Assistant Principal and Deans Mr. Donald Bentley Assistant Principal A sound interest in the students and the wish to build a stronger respect for Northern High School are two distinguishing features that Mr. Donald Bentley, our Assistant Principal, possesses. Because he has these qualities, our school’s effi- ciency has increased along with Mr. Bentley’s feel- ings toward Northern students. He believes that the students should do their best in high school to im- prove themselves for the future. Before the beginning of each new semester, Mr. Bentley is hard at work scheduling the classes and seeing that each class is assigned to a room and teacher. His attention to detail and careful planning assures the success of the program at Northern. Mr. Bentley’s presence is a definite factor in the high standard of our efficiency. One of the people who helps to keep our school running efficiently is Miss Frances Lyon, Dean of Instruction. Miss Lyon has the responsibility of helping to plan the teachers’ schedules and checking to see that each class has the correct number of students. Her careful planning shows as the semes- ters change. In her work with students, Miss Lyon is found to be a person with great understanding and good judgment. She is always willing to help with the problems that students bring to her. During her years at Northern, her Viking Spirit has grown strong and her loyalty has remained steadfast. This spirit and loyalty are shown in her regular attendance at our extracurricular activities. Northern owes a debt of gratitude to this efficient, faithful and beloved member of our faculty. Miss Frances Lyon Dean of Instruction 30 Keep Our School Running Efficiently . . . Those of us who have been in the counselors’ offices have seen Miss Margaret Eggers, Dean of Counseling, at one time or another. A few of her duties as Dean of Counseling are the programming of intensive students, testing, and scholarships. She also assists the counselors with any problems that come up concerning students’ schedules. Miss Eggers’ experience and knowledge helps Northern students choose a curriculum which will prepare them for the career they wish to pursue. She gives seniors the information about the schol- arships that are available to them and what the ap- plication requirements are. Northern recognizes her ability and willingness to help and we appreciate the work that she puts forth to maintain our school’s efficiency. Miss Margaret Eggers Dean of Counseling Mr. Stanley Zera Dean of Students Mr. Stanley Zera, our Dean of Students, is a familiar face around Northern. His office, across from the cafeteria, is always busy with students who have problems they want him to solve. Be- cause of Mr. Zera’s understanding and his ability to work with young people, he is always ready to help solve these problems with efficiency and understanding. Another part of Mr. Zera’s program is his work with the Student Council, Northern’s governing body. He is present at all the meetings to listen to the proposals of the officers and representatives and he helps to work out these ideas into successful projects. Northern respects this man of character and we are proud to have him as a member of our faculty. 31 Our Counselors Offer Assistance . . . The other Special Education Counselor is Mr. Joseph Sventko. He assists the students who need additional help with their studies. One of our two Special Education Counselors is Miss Grace Milledge. She works with the physi- cally handicapped students at Northern. The constant assistance given by the counselors here at Northern is a tremendous help to the students. Coun- seling is important in deciding a student’s future voca- tion because the counselors help a student decide what subjects will fit in with the career he chooses. The counselors advise students on any problems they want to discuss with them. The problems may concern school or personal difficulties. The advice given to help solve these problems often proves to be invaluable. Aside from individual counseling, the counselors help supervise class activities. These activities includes dances and money raising projects. Northerns counselors are pictured in their new offices. They are: Mr. Herman Steele, Mrs. Margaret Calkins, Mr. John Garber, Mrs. Marilyn Steele, Mr. Ted Fisher, Mrs. Helen Steele, and Mr. Gene Riccelli. 32 Crafts develop creative skills . . . Mrs. Margaret Calkins is the director of the Crafts department in room 300B. In this class the students transform decorative ideas into useful objects. The crafts room was completely new last year and it was equipped with all modern facilities. There are three copper enameling kilns, grinding and buffing wheels, spray booth, tool saw, and jig saw. With this equipment the students learn these skills: mo- saic art work, ceramic sculptur- ing, cast molding clay, leather tooling, copper enameling and wood sculpturing. All of these projects keep the students occu- pied with useful and enjoyable work. Mrs. Margaret Calkins helps Jennie Bradley with her leather tooling project while Louisa McCarthy, Robert Heinz, Dyanna Holley and Robert Stoutenberg look on. Gary Campbell. George Lee, Gloria Stevens, Paul Wilson and Jimmy Seaton clean up the sink. See her bright colors . . . The drawing and painting part of Northern’s art department, lo- cated in room 300A, is under the direction of Mr. James Walker. In this class the students who are interested in art are able to de- velop their talents. They have the assets of new facilities and materials to work with. One of the many things done in the art classes include making the banners for the halls and pep assemblies before our games which help build school spirit. Other signs in the cafeteria and halls are also made by the art students. This department is helpful to our school as well as beneficial to those who are in the classes. Mr. James Walker watches Ken Kaszubowski, A1 Washington, Ernie Collins, Richard Cooper and Ralph James while they work. All of these students are in the advanced art class and have their choice of projects. 33 Business Education offers experience . . . Mrs. Bacon observes as Connie Branch continues with her work in typing III while Gerald Harris earnestly works on his typing. Business Education is a series of classes de- signed to help the student interested in a career in the business world. Here at Northern, this cur- riculum includes typing, shorthand, bookkeep- ing, calculating, commercial arithmetic, sales, office practice and business law. These subjects acquaint the students with the skills necessary for a successful career in the competitive busi- ness world of today. A special one semester typing course is also offered for college preparatory students. This class, typing C, gives the college bound student enough knowledge of typing necessary for his personal use. There is also a co-operative program offered at Northern. Students who take the sales and office practice classes are enabled to participate in this co-operative course. Through this co-op program students are able to earn money while they are gaining practical experience. These stu- dents have to meet certain qualifications such as: a C average, regular attendance and good citizenship traits. Students participating in the co-op course attend classes in the morning, and work during the afternoon. Included in the morning classes is at least one class concerning the business field. Miss Helen Rankin instructs Carol Lackie on how to set the mar- Mr. Stewart Mason supervises as Mr. Joe Novak, a student gin stops in her typing I class. teacher , explains a bookkeeping problem to Kaye Cole. 34 Mr. James Polites explains a test in Commercial Law to Mary Pratt and Jerry Hollenbaugh. In this class it is very important for students to realize their mistakes and to correct them. Mrs. Dorothy Gemmill cheerfully answers Tom Dyke’s ques- tion about one of the many typing projects in her Typing I class. Marilyn Powell and Marilyn Godin continue on with their own typing projects. While in the Office Practice class, Mrs. Helen Steele checks the work of Brenda Cox and Jane Farley. The students that take this class participate in the Co-op program. Barry Grable demonstrates the proper method used to sell shoes to Jane Panter while Mamie Melton, Carol Schotter and Mr. Ted Fisher observe his procedure. These students attend the Sales class in the morning and participate in the Co-op program in the afternoon. 35 English-An essential to education . . . Using the SRA booklets are Diane Beck, James Dawkins, and Donna Yates. The end of the semester always brings about the Mrs. Magdalene Rhodes finds these useful in class work for improving averaging of grades. Here Mrs. Joy Brown explains comprehension. The SRA reading skills tests are of various levels according the marking system to Robin Hosier and discusses to the student’s ability. Robin’s final class mark. In English classes we learn to express ourselves and to understand others through poetry, the short story, plays, and novels. Sophomore English classes learn about the importance of good English and its usage. During the junior year a course of American authors is studied. This includes our literary in- heritance. Senior English helps to prepare students to write compositions for college. English Literature includes a study from the earliest English authors to the present day authors. Other English classes are offered to those seeking additional help in reading or writing. Mrs. Ordelia Gould shows Frank Gause, Judy Selle, and Roger Urick how to use the dictionary properly. The dictionary is the source of a choice of words used in expressing ideas. In addition, the dictionary shows the correct enunciation of words. DeVere Bobier and Mrs. Elizabeth Hurst look at a pic- ture of Hawthorne’s famed House oi Seven Gables. The novel of romance and extraordinary beauty is read by the entire class. 36 Marcia Lander writes an outline on the board while Mrs. Dolores Zale watches, and stresses the importance of organiza- tion by grouping related idea together, and arranging the groups in a logical order. Mr. Soden Smith watches as Leonard Adolph and Wilford Cole play records for the class enjoyment. These records are an addition to lessons, but correspond to the regular work of the class. Mr. Dale Christenson discusses a poem with Gary Ambrose which the class previously read. The unit on poetry proves to be of great interest and use to the students in helping com- prehend the rhythm and beauty of great works. Others in the class are Steve Smeltzer. Larry Mayfield, Fred Murray, Yunge, Judy Pardee, Victor Doan, Georgene Nystrom, Dale Derr, and Levi White. 37 A good background in reading is very important today. Through books one finds the ways and customs of others. The knowledge one gets from reading is everlasting. Here Mrs. Marilyn Steele helps Willie Thompson, Walter Kos- iba, and Helen Brock select books for class and outside reading. Books such as Moby Dick, The House of the Seven Gables, and A Tale of Two Cities are classroom favorites. Here Mr. Pat Arsenault shows Diane Reed, Karen Dingal. and Theardo Watson how to use properly the SRA read- ing accelerators to increase reading speed. The students find these helpful in improving reading skills. Reading The Scarlet Letter are Rick Cavitt, Gary Chisholm, Gary DeBolt, Lorenzo Robinson, and Dave Whitman. Questions brought up about this classic are answered by Mr. Paul Mazza. Discussions are frequently held by the class about the early American Period. 38 Drama . . . Drama classes develop the tal- ents of students interested in the acting and producing of plays and in studying drama as litera- ture. Here students learn details in stage production. The major project of this class is presenting the junior and senior plays. The drama teacher, Mr. Thomas Her- ron, and Bonnie McKinsey listen attentively as Ralph Avery and David Wooland read their parts in the senior play. Radio . . . The radio speech teacher, Miss Marycatherine McCarty demon- strates the proper microphone technique to Carol Rutter, while Rosemary Nys and Janis With- ers study their parts. Broadcast- ing plays an important part in this class as they put on the Bible reading and other an- nouncements. It also informs us of the events and progress of the world. In the radio speech de- partment, the students learn the mechanism of broadcasting. Debate . . . The debate class is for stu- dents with the skill of good ar- gumentation. Each year this class has a resolution which is debated with schools in the Saginaw Val- ley. Students learn the impor- tance of knowing both sides of an issue. Their experiences aid in strengthening their minds and character. The debaters prepare for the later debate by taking notes which will be helpful and by comparing and discussing their notes • Shown discussing plans for the next debate is our debate coach Mr. Allen with Marilyn Schwartz and Ronald Grossman who are co-captains of this year’s squad. 39 Industrial Arts develop pride . . . Whether in drafting, wood- shop, architectural drawing, ma- chine shop, shop math, or auto mechanics the pride a student develops in any of these classes is priceless. Pride helps to build a stu- dent’s character for many years to come. To make something from wood, to get a car to run properly, to solve a shop prob- lem, or to start with a blank sheet of paper and end up with a dia- gram, each helps to instill a sense of confidence as well as pride in a student. Although the knowledge may grow dim, the flame of pride and confidence that has been lit in- side these students will burn on brightly, forever. Studying the angles of “The House”, which is a well-known object in architectural drawing, is Bob Philo, George Miller, and Cecil Payne while Mr. James Creamer explains. While Mr. Anthony Rasmovich illustrates the use of Elonzo Duncan, Chester Booth, Don Beringer, Walter the saw and cautions his students in woodshop class, Rulka, and Ken Olchawa follow his movements and words 40 Studying the complexity of a piece of machinery are Bill Armstrong, Paul Runyan, and Dennis Gupton. Mr. Edward Jones points out and explains the importance of the various parts of the machine. learning how to take care of machinery and practicing this new knowledge proves to be practical ex- perience. Not only for the student who plans to continue along this line, but it is helpful for other students' personal needs. Mr. Charles Zeilinger illustrates the use of the textbook in auto shop to Gary Fortin and Richard Fielding. As Mr. Zeil- inger reads the instructions, the students follow not only the diagram in the book, but also apply them to an automobile. While under trained supervision, the students often get prac- tical experience by actually working on various teachers’ auto- mobiles when they are in need of repairs. 41 Bob Cotton gives Bud Davidson and Maurice Fielder handsaws as Mr. Gene Riccelli stresses the importance of the correct use of the handsaws. Because the students use a variety of tools, it is necessary to be familiar with the care and use of these tools. Larry Roach listens intently as Mr. Marshall Mossman instructs him in the proper use of the blueprint machine. After a student has completed a mechanical drawing it is processed through this machine and made into an actual blueprint. Common Foods Preparation class offered Common Foods Preparation classes are now being offered to juniors and seniors not only at Northern but throughout the Flint area. The students en- rolled in this course attend an instruction class in the morning held in the new Centralized Food Service Facility on Wal- nut Street, and then they work in the cafeteria, preparing lunch- es that are taken to other schools. After this, the students return to their schools to attend regular classes the remaining part of the day. Although these classes are only opened to juniors and sen- iors this year, sophomores are not to be excluded. Next year the sophomores will attend classes on the preparation of foods and the following year, they will be allowed to begin practicing their new knowledge. James Hart is busy checking on things in the oven while Mary McGaughy mixes in gredients in a pan on the stove. 42 Homemakers of tomorrow Good grooming is very important for girls. Mrs. Lura Brewer instructs the girls on how to give a good mani- cure. Kay Thorpe is giving one to Jeanette Jeffes. Watching are Alberta Leon and Norma Wright. Good grooming is just one of the things that are taught in a homemaking class. Homemaking prepares girls to become effi- cient homemakers of tomorrow. Girls learn to cook, sew, budget, decorate, and care for chil- dren. The sewing classes teach girls the correct method of sewing, altering, and color selection. Also hair styles and manicuring are covered in the line of good grooming. In the foods class students learn to prepare meals that are nutritious, balanced, attractive, and delicious. They also learn the correct way of table setting. Problems that develop in the home and caring for children are also studied. In a homemaking class Miss Lois Van Ness demon- strates how to make different table decorations for Christmas. Listening to the demonstrations are Sandra Wright, Sharon Hornes, Nina Grignani, and Linda Eakin. Many helpful and different demonstrations take place throughout the school year. This training in the field of home economics prepares the girls to be better homemakers. 43 Learning to speak with our neighbors . . . Miss Phyllis Macklem shows Phil Romines how to operate the tape recorder while Nancy Wesighan follows along in her book. In French, the tape recorder serves as a guide and supplement to the book. Mrs. Helen Lincoln shows Charles Arthur how to use an ancient scroll while Sandy Gardner looks on. The class gets a better under- standing of how the Romans lived from the Roman amphitheatre and other items made by the students. Latin, French, and Spanish are taught at North- ern. Latin is the mother language and the basis for the Romance languages. Although not a spoken lan- guage, Latin is the stem for many English words. The modern languages, French and Spanish, help students to learn the customs and cultures of the people as well as their language. Of great assistance in our foreign language classes is our new language laboratory which allows the students to practice speaking the language while being able to hear the correct pronunciation. Mrs. JoAnne Hollar corrects Bill Bennett s pronunciation tion on the tape are Kay Domine and Ron Davenport. The while Ruth Borg listens. Listening to the correct pronuncia- tape allows the students to practice their pronunciation. 44 After reading Pliny’s account of the destruction of Pompeii, Miss Lucy Dillon, Kermit Lee, Susan McClellan, Dianna Brown, Sue Salnave and Lucy Ponomar- enko look at pictures about it in the National Geographic Magazine. Mrs. Glenora Andresen looks on ready to give any needed assistance to Gary Temple while he works on the translation of a Spanish story. Mrs. Virginia Rodgers, our school nurse and co-sponsor of our Future Nurses Club, is busy getting her various records up to date. Mrs. Rodgers is always in her office in case of an emergency.

In this Algebra class Miss Bertha Zenzen points out the test. Listening very attentively are Janet Straka, Kenneth different mistakes that were made on a recent Algebra II Scott, Christine Beckett, George Filpansick, Eldon Lurvey. 46 Mr. Robert Krabill instructs Lynne Russell, a Geometry II student, as she learns the correct methods of bisecting an arch. Listening to the in- structions of Mr. Krabill is Steve Hitchcock, others pictured are: Pat Moss and Dan Owen. Mr. Krabill also teaches algebra. In this Geometry II class, Mr. Robert Ryran helps Dave Albert with a difficult math problem, also listening to the explanation is Tom Turner. Mr. Ryran is also a teacher of personal math. Math is important to everyone because it helps to develop a good sense of logic. Logic helps to solve arithmetic problems in our daily lives in almost any profession. At Northern many courses of math are offered to students. For students who are on a college prepara- tory curriculum, geometry, algebra, and trigonometry are offered. Those on a general or business course are offered basic math, personal math, and business math. This wide variety of courses gives every stu- dent the opportunity to choose the type of math necessary for his career. Mrs Jeanette Percival checks the procedure Tom Vollrath used in solving Mr. Robert Baird helps student Nancy Cole to solve a this algebra problem. Mrs. Percival also teaches geometry and basic math. difficult Geometry II problem. 47 Music builds enthusiasm . . . Mr. Bumgarner is rehearsing with the girls’ glee club. They are practicing for the Christmas program. Mr. Bumgarner also directs other groups such as: the choir, the chorus, and the boys' glee club. The music department of Northern is divided into three sections: instrumental, vocal, and mu- sic appreciation classes. The vocal department consists of choir, chorus, girls’ and boys’ glee clubs. The instrumental de- partment is the band and orchestra. A music ap- preciation class is also taught. Since music is the universal language, it is an important part of our activities and culture. The band plays at our athletic games and pep as- semblies. The choral groups sing at school assemblies and at various organizations throughout the city. All groups combine in several concerts a year. During orchestra practice, Mr. Allen Walters helps Frank Carol Bradley, and Lorraine Schaffer. Mr. Walters instructs Morse with a rhythm problem; listening are Walter Kosiba, orchestra and band, and a music appreciation class. 48 Physical Education builds strong bodies . . . Mrs. Marjorie Dennis points out the basic crawl stroke as Miss Elizabeth Powers watches with enthusiasm. These swimming classes are divided into three sections. They are: beginners, intermediate, and advanced classes. Pictured are: Lois Mi- chaud, Sharon Boertman, Pam Smith, Trudy Nichols, and Diane Sellers. These girls are in intermediate and advanced classes. Swimming is just one of the many activities offered to the girls in the physical education classes. While Mr. Fred Crawford gives instructions to a group of boys on the correct way to do push-ups, Mr. Bill Adams corrects the position of the boys. Walter Plamondon, Bob Conway. Cloyd Kilgore, John Miller, Jerry Stephens, and Tom Russell listen carefully to the advice and instructions given by Mr. Adams and Mr. Crawford. This will prove helpful in passing the various required tests in obtaining a Youth Achievement Award. 49 Science - - An instrument of the future The field of science is a field of the future. Through science new discoveries and advance- ments are made every day. These discoveries have enabled us to lead richer and fuller lives. Scientists are constantly looking towards the fu- ture, doing research to find cures for diseases, ad- vancing space exploration, and searching for other methods of advancement. Science also affects our daily lives. Not only has it given us many material things, as the auto- mobile, telephone, and radio, but science has also made it possible for people to live longer. Scien- tists have not only learned how to cure many dis- eases but they have also discovered how to keep people healthy by means of proper care. Here at Northern, science students are given a look into the world of science. Students have the chance to observe, to study, and to question through class discussions and laboratory experi- ments. These students are given an opportunity to acquaint themselves with the several phases of science, such as biology, chemistry, physiology, and physics. It is up to the students of today to accept the challenge science is offering. Mr. Charles Pennock seems slightly amazed as he watches Harold Jones perform an experiment in his Biology I class. During the intensive biology class Mr. Harold Cochran is Nancy Wesighan. and Gail Magnuson are working on experi- helping Pam Smith adjust her microscope. While Mark ments which are stated in their biology lab books. Many such Schwartz is busily concentrating on his slide, Judie Kielian, experiments are carried on in intensive biology. 50 Questioning Mr. Francis Bentley about the fahrenheit and cen- tigrade temperature scales are Curtis Flynn and Carl Pickett. By pointing out the difference between the two scales Mr. Bentley explains the various uses of both scales. The fahrenheit tempera- ture scale is the one that is the most familiar to all of us. During this Modern Science class many practical phases of science are dis- covered and discussed through the cooperation of the student and teacher. Mr. Norbert Badar points out and explains the various parts of a model exhibiting a portion of the human body. Trudy Nichols and Steve Hutton, students in Mr. Badar's Physiology I class, listen attentively to his explanation. Physiology, one of the branches of biology, is the study of living things. In this class the actions of the different parts of plants, animals and man are studied. Mr. Michael Eckhart observes as some of his Biology I stu- dents perform one of the many experiments which are done in this class. Joanne Jones and Susanne Mottonen carefully watch Jerry Schlieger as he completes an important step in the necessary procedure. This experiment has to do with the origination of microbes. The eight flasks show the eight differ- ent methods used to find the origin of microbes. Mr. David McCall watches as Alex Bese and Fred Williams record the data of an experiment that they have just finished. In this experi- ment the students in Mr. McCall’s Chemistry I class observed the chemical reactions of different solutions. In Physics I Mr. Roy Scheick assists Jim Bristol, Larry Blackburn and Mike Charney with an experiment. This experiment concerns the shape and placement of images formed by a converging lens. Library - Beneficial to all . . . The librarians. Mrs. Beverly Tolley, Miss Eloise Wellock and Mrs. Ruth Stelter finish filing the magazines in Northern’s new magazine room. This room is an addi- tion to our library. The librarians are continually making improvements in the library system so that it will be easier for students to acquire needed information. 52 Keeping abreast of the changing times The Social Studies Depart- ment is trying to keep Northern students abreast of the changing times. To achieve this goal many changes have taken place in our Social Studies’ program. Sophomores used to take Early European History classes, but now a Foreign Relations class is offered. In Foreign Re- lations class students study dif- ferent countries and their rela- tionship with one another. This class helps students achieve a better understanding of present day problems. United States History was offered only to seniors, but now it is taken during a student’s junior year. Because the Social Study classes were reorganized this year, there were many United States History classes. A new, and as yet unnamed, history class will be offered to next year’s seniors. Its goal is to inform students of the chang- ing times. ' Mr. Clare Dean points out some supplementary reading material concerning China to Cheryl Sparspanic and Larry Galbraith, students in his Foreign Relations class. Cheryl and Larry are checking some of the other sources available to them for refer- ence work during the class period. In an Economics class, Mr. Herman Steele assists Tom Jucius and James Harper in explaining what influences profits and to what extent profits are affected. Understanding what has influenced past economic situations gives students an idea of what affects our present economy. Mrs. Jana Kearns, a new teacher at North- ern, goes over a reading assignment with Larry Thompson pointing out the portions that will receive emphasis. 53 Sandy Eberline and Karen Draheim listen attentively to Mrs. Kathryn Gardner, who is explaining the proc- ess a bill must go through in order to become a law. Mr. Leon Arnst, a student teacher from the University of Michigan, points out various rivers to Barbara Jones and Bruce Burk as Mr. Jack Marlette listens. Mr. John Garber, while holding his lecture book, which he refers to as “my brains,” has Carol Smith point out various places on a map of the world. 54 Mr. Donald Barr, one of Northern’s new teachers, explains to George Mawdsley and Arlie Elders how bills are made into laws in a democratic society. Mr. Nobel Ercole and Sue Hollen- baugh listen as Dainysius Wilkins ex- plains how the geographic conditions of South Dakota influence the voca- tions and recreations available to its inhabitants. Mr. Kenneth Fowler, a student teach- er from the University of Michigan, listens as Mr. John Muhvic answers Rachael Bishop's and Coletta Brad- ley’s questions concerning Africa and its problems. 55 Mr. Herbert Rhoades shows Alida DeYoung a church made by one of his students that illustrates the architecture of some of our early churches. Projects such as this help stu- dents visualize things clearly. Lyle Resseguie listens as Diana Finn asks Mr. William Buck- ner about the formation of the Democratic and Republican Parties. The formation of these parties depends not on one event, but many events. History is often influenced by geographic conditions. In his foreign relations class, Edward Krupa answers Carol Lackey's questions by referring to a world globe. Mr. Krupa stresses the importance of geographic knowledge in all of his history classes. Mr. William Long shows Jim Wise and Barbara Van Loan how to use the map’s key to understand the map. Mr. Long does this implementing the work in the textbooks. 56 Personalized Curriculum Program . . . Mr. Mac Valleau watches as Lafayette Wallace, Sandra Scarborough, and Robert Burrus look through the books try- ing to decide which one to read during class. Reading plays an important part in class as well as at home. One of the newest ventures on the secondary level is the Personalized Curriculum Program, PCP for short. It is a departure from the traditional educa- tional policy. It is different from existing patterns of organization. The undertaking was of such magnitude Mr. Carl Williams discusses the answers and the results of a recent test with Emma Coulter. As Mr. Williams answers any questions concerning the test, Doris Cobbin carefully goes over her paper. that the resources of both the Mott Program and K-12 Division were combined to establish the pro- gram on a total basis in all junior and senior high schools. Heading the program is Mr. Lester Ehrbright, Director of Pupil Personnel Services Department. Mr. Ron Mac Lennan goes over an English test with Charles Soloman. Waiting for their turn to find out how they did and the right answers are Richard Scharrer and Jo Anne Higbee. Mr. Thomas Riutta is passing out a paper to Leonard Bolds while Bill Black and Garrett Greason study theirs so that if they have a test or asked some questions they will be prepared. 57 Good health for a happy life . . . At the left Mr. Merton Vin- cent explains the function of the gall bladder to his Personal Se- curity Education students, Jack- ie Williams and MacArthur Day. This is a 12-week course whose purpose is to understand the hu- man body and how it functions. In Personal Security Education the students also learn the basic fundamentals of first aid. Every- one in this class learns to realize the importance of healthy living by eating well-balanced meals, supplemented by a correct amount of exercise. Personal Se- curity Education is beneficial to all Northern students and is re- quired to complete a full semes- ter course along with Driver Education. Safer drivers for the future . . . Mr. Andrew Corsi is pictured at the left with one of his pupils. He teaches Driver Education to Northern High School students. In this picture Mr. Corsi is speak- ing to the students at the range from the tower. In this short six weeks course students learn the rules and regulations of safe driving in class and practice them on alternate days at the range. In order to pass this class and re- ceive their permits they must pass written tests and driving tests. It is hoped that through such Driver Education programs, the drivers of the future will be safer and better drivers than their parents. But of course this can only be achieved by the stu- dents who remember to drive carefully! 58 Efficiency is their goal . . . Mrs. Austin works diligently at her desk knowing the office is well taken care of by her efficient second hour workers. Sue Eaton’s next job at the typewriter is explained by Mrs. Hedrich. Mrs. Dickenson is showing Beverly Van Luven the correct way to use the files while Lois Mikesell answers the ever-busy telephone. Nourishment is their goal We are all familiar with the delicious aromas as we walk by the cafeteria, and it is hard to believe that only a staff of seven is behind all of this. Mrs. Sinnott, Mrs. Crimi, Mrs. Eckerdt. 59 Mrs. Olmstead, Mrs. Baier, Mrs. Blackwell and Mrs. James, are always working diligently to complete our diets. pUkJij . ■A -' ey0-C f, - s 4 - CUJL mLs As� _) 2 —= (S2J spS {, s J _. -y j-i_J tJ'S (Jx A cW- CA, -La LOvu-) rV , v . r jganiStioirf PP_ soCr ! ti o d W n. -7 'TA CcO sCtM J- ks- x-4j r 63 � � Oh, We’re From Northern High . . .

Northern tied for the championship with Pontiac Central. the helpful note cards in their debate boxes organized before a debate. Listening to Gary Jedynak practice his speech are: Lynn Hoffman. Larry Thomson, Penny Meharg, Pat Michalek, and Duane Sapp. While listening to the debate, mistakes are found and the debater can correct them before a tournament. Resolved: That the United States should join in forming a common market among the na- tions of the western hemisphere. Northern’s first debate tour- nament was held at Saginaw High School. Here Northern took first place. The next tournament was held at Southwestern where Northern came in second, at Cen- tral the debaters came in third and at Northern they again came in third. This shows the time and effort that was spent in prepar- ation for the debates. The debaters were co-cap- tained by Marilyn Schwartz and Ron Grossman. Cheryl Philips, second negative speaker, is cross ques- tioning Pam Smith, first affirmative speaker, in a cross question debate. Following is a six minute summary from the negative and affirmative teams. Discussing the very controversial topic are: Martin Kalmar, Pat Kump, Pat Weir, and Sue Kubany. In this type of discussion new ideas are exchanged so that more and better arguements can therefore be made for presentation in a debate tournament. 67 he nurses of tomorrow . . . Working on Pediatrics is perhaps the most enjoyable job a Future Nurse can have. Here Grace Borg is preparing to feed Lisa Laurack her bottle as Sandy Crowe watches. Besides doing this, they also work with the older children in the play room. Miss Helen Rankin (sponsor) and Jane Fry (pres- ident) congratulate Future Nurse, Sue McClellan, on the honor she received for being the outstanding Fu- ture Nurse. While you were sitting quietly in the cafeteria last November were you approached by someone who was trying to sell cookies or cupcakes or even some popcorn? No, they really didn’t forget their lunch money. This was just the informal initiation of the Future Nurses. These girls, under the guidance of Miss Helen Ran- kin and Mrs. Virginia Rogers, work diligently to pre- pare themselves for their career. Besides working on service projects, they donate one night a week to one of Flint’s hospitals. They also attend the meetings which are held once a month. Barb Joseph, who has received her cap for the many hours she has worked at Hurley Hospital, encourages Sue Diehl as she starts her work. One of Ruth Protsman’s many du- ties, while working in the Emergency Room at McLaren Hospital, is putting clean linens on the stretchers. Joanne Brandt exhibits a cheerful attitude as she arranges Mrs. Ina Wickstrom’s hair. A cheer- ful attitude is very important in making the pa- tient’s stay in the hospital more comfortable. 68 Teachers of tomorrow . . . Northern senior, Cynthia Mayers, helps her eager students in their work on the Garfield Gazette, the paper at Garfield Elementary School. Many students, interested in a teach- ing career, join the Future Teachers Club which is sponsored by Mrs. Eliza- beth Hurst. Many club members are also cadet teachers. Both programs stimulate and encourage the students interest in teaching. Among their projects are the making of a colorful fruit basket for patients at Winchester Hospital, and the giving of food and toys for a needy family at Christmas.

The story is concerned with an extremely attractive young mother (Kay Halverson) who is forced to attend college with a daughter who regards her as a “has been.” When they get to college she is met by a “deep freeze” from Dean Gillingham (Dave Woolard) who regards this all as a joke. Mother gets involved with Professor Mich- aels (John Norton), but what she doesn’t know is that a lot of the other girls, including Susan, have a crush on him too. Susan’s foolish maneuvers result in a serious misunderstanding, and in outrage. Mother slaps the pro- fessor. As a result, she’s expelled. She has to listen to the sound of the music and watch the others go off to the dance while she goes upstairs to pack. This makes for a delightful ending. Diane Sellers straightens Dan Eichorn’s bow tie while Skip Littlefield and Bonnie Moss settle a little misunderstanding. Mattie Earl and Dave Woolard wait for the admission paper Sharyl Elton’s holding.

Father is definitely the head of the house, and only Mother can get around him. Mother (Vinnie) is a devout Episco- palian. Father attends church but is not the least bit in awe of God. An innocent question from a visiting friend finds that Father is not baptized. Vinnie immediately sets out to get him christened, and naturally Father is extremely upset. Now they not only have arguments about bring- ing up their four boys, bills, visiting relatives, and keep- ing maids, but have very heated fights over his not be- ing baptized. Vinnie becomes very sick, and Father, in desperation, agrees to become a true member of the church. As usual, Mother has won! Marilyn Eby sets the tea tray.

Bart Lewis, Vince Care, Dennis Lazar, Dennis Sawtelle, Harold Jones and Jim Duffield. 131 The Viking baseball team has a solid arrangement for the next couple of years in these four outstanding young prospects: Dennis Lazar, a sophomore and third base hopeful; Vince Care, a junior candidate for shortstop; Dennis Sawtelle, a junior second base expec- tation; and Harold Jones, a promising sophomore first baseman. Northern’s first base expert, Ken Nordin, takes the throw in time to retire South- western’s pitcher, Bob Reid, in a 1962 City Series game. Four veteran inhelders form the backbone of this season’s “powerhouse nine”; Bart Lewis, the Viking third base specialist; George Thomas, master of shortstop; David Shaw, the ace at second; and Ken Nordin, the expert, holding down first base. All four are returning letter- men and many team hopes rest on them. During a City Series duel, an uni- dentified Southwestern player is cut down at second as Dave Shaw foils an attempted bunt. 132 Coach Burt Jackson Coach Adams offers a few helpful hints to the team battery: catchers, Ken Engel, and (sophomore) Jim Duffield (in the check position) and pitchers, Charles Pitts and Roger Urick.
