Co-captains Wayne and Don The 1963 Pine River football team, under head coach Richard Rezanka, began a season which was termed as a rebuilding year for Pine River. Don Lundrigan and Wayne Pltllck captained the squad. The Tigers erased all speculation about a possible poor football season by smashing their way to a 6-1 conference record. The team's only loss In the conference came in an early game while they were still a very young team. The squad finished with a five game winning streak and a solid hold on second place. Pine River placed three men on the All-Co nfrence Team. They were Lonnie Hanson, tackle; Wayne Pitlick, end; Don Lundrigan, half-back. v A A ✓ Seniors SNAPS Defensive Line Man o-v-e-r Board!

CHEERLEADERS The cheerleaders proved themselves worthy of their title by encouraging the spectators at the football and the basketball games to cheer for their team.

ANNUAL STAFF The year 6I4. brought many more changes in the PINE BOUGH. The use of more pages and more pictures Is the most noticeable change. These along with the cover has given this year’s annual a much more enchanting and desirable appearance. The 196b. PINE BOUGH was published by the American Yearbook Co. and the photography was done by Silkers Studio of Little Falls. The PINE BOUGH Staff has made it a point to find new ways to create an accurate picture of the past year. In the hope that you will enjoy it, the staff has spent many dedicated hours in making the yearbook.

The hootenanny enthusiasts wa-e treated to a program by:Ida Johnson, Carol Erickson, June Doty, Tom Rohr, Ronnie Farnum, Jerry Miller, Betty Olson, Lee Spatgen, Gayle Taylor, Dolores Long, Isabel Shamp, Mary Hofi-us, and Sandra Carlson. The school year of 1963 and 6I4. has filled our school with a variety of fads and fashions. The students started out the year with stretch pants and mohair sweaters which reigned supreme in the girls' department. The boys came up with pinstr ip e d shirts with dickeys of a variety of colors, the patched elbow shirts were worn by both girls and boys. Hairstyles for girls have featured sleek coiffures influenced by the hootenanny and the Beatles. The Beatles, a singing group imported from Great Britain, have uprooted the old conservative way of life and have brung in a new era; the era of free egression. The idea ofslnging along with the entertainers and participating more in the pro- gram, was brought into the open. Folk songs have been the latest addition to our musical agenda. There has been a reversion to the past for lyrics and the results have been marvelous. Popular music has changed from jazzy to the soft, melodious strains of folk songs. Dance numbers are no longer the thing. Listening is now more common. This year has been filled with revolution s in many fields: music, dress, hairstyles and ideas. One of the long, low and sleek automobiles forl96U was the Ford Galaxie 500. The bulky knit mohair and patent leather loafers were worn by Dan Risnes and Rod B. Johnson.
