Roughriders Topple Redskins ' Tower Power ' Refers to Coach by Gail Hagerty Tower power ' a sign proclaims and to Red River basketball fans thai means Coach Ken Towers. Coach Towers spent the first eight years of his life on a farm near Alson, North Dakota. ,4fter his family moved into Alson he spent summers working on the farm. He is the seventh of eight children. Basketball was part of his high school life. He was center on a state championship team. The Alson team also holds a record for their 1 ) game winning streak. He also did well academically. He attended Mayville State Teachers ' College and the University of North Dakota where he received his masters degree in educational administration. Jii niors mail Pr-oni Througli the Windmills of ' our Mind is the theme chosen by the junior class for the May 2 prom. A Minneapolis band, the Abraxes, will play for the spring event, which is sponsored each year by the junior class. In preparation for the prom, the class has earned nearly S800. Future money-making ideas include a slave day, a tashion show and bake sales. Robin Lukkason and Dan Norden are the co-chairmen for this year ' s prom. Working under their direction are committee heads Jean Blackmore, refreshments, dail llagerty, publicity: Laurie Robertson, Cassie Fall. Janice Linloot and Jeff .Anderson, decorations; and John Hertsgard, entertainment, r, Colors for the prom this year will be lavender, purple, aqua. His wife, Gloria, and children Kimberly, 8; Gail, 7 and Brad, 5, are all Rougli rider Fans. They attend all the games. Coach Towers, who teaches physical education, feels the physical education program is going well. He says plans foi next year include basicall life -time sports, archery, bowling, badmitten, golf, tennis, volley-ball, swimming golf, weight training and slimnastics. They will be offered in six week units. Students arc much better about getting into the gym, said Coach Towers. He cited this as a problem that caused most of the difficulty in carrying on a program such as Red River has. He feels the phy. ed, large group has accomplished its purpose in letting the teacher have moie contact with students. All coaches are a little superstitious, admitted Coach Towers. Red socks are the vent for his superstitions. Practice for the basketball players usually lasts at least two and a half hours. After regular work-out some players stay and practice free-throws or individual skills. The harder we work, the luckier we get. The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender, are slogans of the Rougliriders. Coach Towers feels the way practice goes is pretty much the way the game will go. If we don ' t do our best at practice, we can ' t do our best in a game, he pointed out. Half-time is a time mainly for relaxation according to Coach Towers. The players eat an orange and if the team is lacking 111 etioil that IS discussed. Before the game meals should be eaten about -i 30 or 4.U(J. They include meat, potatoes, a vegetable and salad. Milk is not included Coach lowers leels that the team is in as good shape as they had hoped. Ken Sherwood Enjoys Student Relationships Mr. Ken Sherwood, the choral music teacher at Red River, graduated from the University of North Dakota with a Bachelors Degree He attended the University of Missouri in Kansas City where he received his Master ' s of Music. He graduated from Central High School, and also spent two years of his life in the army. pjient. He says, I think it gives your children a chance to either sink or swim. If the person ' really wants to, he can excel m anything! Mr. Sherwood has four children, one. Connie, is a lunior at Red River. Mr. Sherwood feels that Man of La Mancha was lus most successful musical. Also, Yearbook In Making The yearbook staff is busily trying to meet its first deadline November 2. At this time thirty-six pages will be sent to the publisher. Of her staff editor, Karen Bohn says they are unbehev- able. She has nothing but praise for the section editors, who are working hard at planning the pages, and for the business staff who are eagerly looking for patrons This year a new staff position that of te ' nical editor held by Cindy Uri ;, has been added. Karen is keeping the theme a surprise. But adds that the book includes eight more pages than last years, colored pictures, and lots of candid shots. According to Karen working and planning this year ' s Epilogue is very exciting.
