As you turn the pages of this yearbook, we hope it will help you recall the days, the hours, and the minutes of this our GOLDEN YEAR.” The hourglass on the cover is a symbol of the passage of time. As each grain of sand drops through the glass, we grow. We grow emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It is this period of growth we have tried to capture through pictorial record between the covers of this book. There was yesterday and there is today, but there will always be tomorrow. For us as seniors, our time in high school is drawing to a close. Many of the things we have learned, both in and out of the classroom, we will retain for the rest of our lives. We must continue to move on in time, and we must continue to allow daily experiences to teach us something. There are so many activities and events to remember . . . our first high school dance . . . games and pepfests . . . class rings . . . term papers . . . Senior Ball . . . plays and concerts . . . College Boards . . . Baccalaureate and Commencement . . . As a class we will no longer exist, but we will always be individuals who have shared many things in common. We are approaching the world of the future with a faith, hope, and confidence known only to youth. Each of us has a goal, a desire, an ambition to be reached. But we will always be drawing from the experiences we gathered in our three high school years, climaxing in this our GOLDEN YEAR.” We hope that in the future, when you look at this book again it will help you remember and relive the golden days that make this our glorious GOLDEN YEAR.” The staff of the 1963 Au-rean proudly presents to you, the students of Richfield High School, a record of this very special year.

SltOAO Cobuzska UessogG' to Dear Seniors: Golden Years.” What docs that phrase mean to you? When the name Aurean was chosen as the title of our high school annual its English translation meant Golden Years. The phrase was intended to convey to the readers of your annual the idea that one of the happiest and most productive times of one's life occurred while that person was in high school. You will not know whether the statement fits you until you have moved on into the intricacies of life involving making your own decisions, providing for your own livelihood and that of your family, upholding your cultural and social prestige in your community, and other experiences beyond count. Only then can you look back and say with assurance that the meaning of the phrase applied to your high school days. Your faculty has done everything in its power to make your stay in high school productive. Only you will know how much you contributed to making those years, Golden Years.

Oi Aot F%yS This year’s one act plays, Riders to the Sea and An Overpraised Season,” were presented Thursday evening, February 14, in the high school auditorium. The polish of both plays reflected the able direction of Mr. Frank Curry and his student assistants, Becky Wallace and Jim Gronvall. Mr. James Carlson, critic from Hamline University, chose, An Overpraised Season, to go to the district contest. Dianne Johnson and Don Stutzman were selected as the best actor and actress. Honorable mention went to John Grider and Dianne Mclnnis. Riders to the Sea, by J. M. Synge is a drama of live Irish Sea folk. It concerns an old woman's bitterness against the sea that had taken her sons from her, and finally claims her only remaining son. An Overpraised Season, is a play of ideas. It was written by Richard S. Dunlap. The main character in the play tries to portray some of the many problems found in life. Both plays proved to be excellent in every respect and both were well accepted by the audience. tjift Qect Cast Maurya...... Catbleen ... Nora........ Bartley..... Old Women . Old Men.....

Mr. James Marcell, assisted by Steve Zimmerman, was the director of the play. The play is a story of a mid-Victorian family who lived in New York during the I880's. Due to the late date of presentation the pictures for the yearbook had to be taken before the costumes, sets, or anything else were ready.

Charlotte Potter was the captain of the football-basketball squad and Sharon Erickson was the captain of the hockey-wrestling squad. Mrs. Howells served as advisor for all the cheerleading squads and under her able direction they performed at all pepfests and sporting events. All the squads get together for a joint pepfest. 153 This was sports 1963. Football brought pep-fests, sockhops and cold feet. Once again fighting for the Lake Conference championship and receiving silver footballs instead of gold. The rush to get to Homecoming and lovely Queen Pat. All the sweat and strain of cross country and record breaking Jim Yurich. Moving into winter sports brought Senior buttons, more pepfests and another championship. Our undefeated hockey team with six All-Conference selections and All-American Jim Branch. The Region Five tourney took on a new look as the champs were draped in TP. The State Tournament mascot Miss Johnson, another triple overtime and a long sought after victory. The wrestling squad moved upstairs and realized what it was like to perform before a packed crowd. It looked like another championship as the basketball squad started like a house of fire only to come back after vacation like a blizzard, but then to warm again for tourney action. The ski team in state tournament brought Richfield more ognition. With golf, track, tennis and all coming up in the spring. Richfield look forward to more victories. 1962 Champions in baseball have many returning ith hopes of another championship.

This was by far the best Cross Country season we have had at Richfield, commented coach Howard Norness summing up the past season’s record of his very impressive Cross Country Squad. Impressive they were with a season's record of 6-2; placing second in the District 18-8 mile relay; and finishing a very successful season by placing fourth in the regional meet. This year the squad had no less than nine boys running the mile and eight-tenths in less than ten minutes, nearly doubling the school's past record. Leading the runners was Jim Yurich who set a new school record of 9:01, just a few seconds off the Lake Nokomis record. Jim also went on to participate in the state meet. Prospects for next year look good with Yurich and six of the other top eight runners returning.

Tfiefo UXg(i£ During the latter weeks of August while most people were still enjoying their vacations, the Richfield Spartan gridders were preparing to defend their Lake Conference Crown. This season had more than its share of surprises and disappointments, but a spirited Spartan squad turned in a very colorful year. With fifteen senior lettermen gone. Coach Collison had many vacant spots to fill. With the help of Coach Ward, a good but not yet unified team was thrown against St. Louis Park. But as the season progressed Richfield turned in some of the best team performances ever shown by a Richfield team. Against such teams as Mound. Bloomington, Robbinsdale, and Edina, Richfield clearly showed that the Spartans were the best. As for individuals, the Richfield team faired very well with Tim Wheeler, Jeff Halcnza. and Jim Branch being named to the Lake Conference coaches All-Conference team. Tom Peterson also was named to another All-Conference team along with Halenza and Wheeler. Co-Captain Jeff ended up on all the All-Conference teams and was considered to be one of the best linemen in the conference. Co-Captain Tim Wheeler also was selected as Richfield's Most Valuable Player by his teammates and was a close second in the Like's Most Valuable rating. Topping off the season was Tim's appointment to the All-State team. Head Ouch Collison and Coach Ward plan out the Spartans' strategy for their next foe. i_4 Qt.

The Spartans, defending Lake Conference Champs, opened the 1962 season against a confident and highly regarded St. Louis Park eleven at the Oriole's field. The Orioles received the opening kickoff on their 35 and promptly marched to the Spartan 11, before the tough Richfield defense stiffened and took over the ball on downs. The Spartans' initial series was unsuccessful and they punted to the Oriole 48. Park once again marched deep into Richfield territory before the defense once again held and the close of the quarter found the ball in Richfield's possession on their own 21. Under the effective play calling of Chuck Thoreson, Richfield ran off the first sustained drive of the game which saw Thoreson driving the ball over from the one and Wheeler adding the running conversion for a 7-0 lead. Park then took to the airways and tied the score with six seconds left in the half. The second half found the Richfield defense once again dominating play and Park passing much of the time. Park scored eventually on a fluke, bobbled pass in the end zone and Park led 13-7. However,' the Spartan eleven was not to be denied and marched 65 yards to tic the score. Wheeler than went over for the game winning point making the final score 14-13. Tim Wheeler roars toward the hole as Jim Branch hits Mound s Jeff Li ht (29) out of the way. Right: Co-Captain Tim Wheeler. 20 fjjowull In the second game of the young season the Spartans defeated a tough Mound squad which eventually turned out to be the Lake Conference Champs. In an unimpressive first halt during which neither team was effective, the Spartan and Mohawk gridders played to a virtual standstill with only one score in the half. This score was made by Mound's excellent quarterback. Bob Haddorff, who rolled around end 7 yards to paydirt. The Spartan offense was unable to get started and Mound led at the half with a very solid looking 7-0 score. The first few moments of the third period previewed the rugged Spartan defensive play which was to determine the rest of the game. The Spartans appeared to be a different team as they ripped off large gains through gapping holes and the defense blocked a punt and intercepted three passes. The first Richfield score came when Wheeler drove over from the 8 to finish a 55 yard drive. The point after was good and the score was tied 7-7. An interception on the Mound 35 set up the next score which found Jim Branch driving over from the 10. The point after was not good and Richfield led 13-7. A battered and bruised Mound line weakened slightly late in the fourth quarter and the Spartans taking advantage of this marched 45 yards for the score by Ken Nelson from the 5. Tim Wheeler, on his way to the Lake Conference back of the week honors, ran the point and the final score was 20-7. 48 Wftqgafcft 20 On September 21, a highly regarded Spartan eleven invaded Wayzata to battle a badly undermanned Trojan squad. There was no question from the start that the Richfield squad was superior in all respects. A dominating Spartan line led by rugged center Roger White opened tremendous holes for the backs. Coach Collison emptied the bench for this contest and the second and third units accounted for two scores. Chuck Thoreson accounted for two touchdowns himself and passed to Ken Smith for a third. Jim Branch, Tim Wheeler, Mike Palmquist, and Greg Wasick also scored as Richfield totaled 48 points, a new school record. The final score was 48-20. 158 Before nearly 7,000 onlookers a fired up Spartan squad took the field to battle a number one ranked Robbinsdalc eleven. This game was rated the top contest in the sfate and was broadcast on radio. At the end of the game, both teams had proved to all present that they had to be rated two of the top teams in the state. Except for a few seconds, Richfield dominated play. Perhaps the most disastrous ten seconds of the Richfield season came at the end of the first half as a stout Spartan defense relaxed slightly. It appeared that with Robbinsdalc on the 35 and only seconds to go, the Spartans would start the second half with a 7-6 lead. However, the Robins quarterback Steve Hokanson had other ideas as he lofted a long aerial which halfback Bob Jewett took in stride and legged across the goal. The extra point was good, ending the scoring, and both teams went to the locker rooms with Robbinsdalc leading 13-7. The Robbinsdalc line proves to be stiff opposition for the Richfield backs RIGHT: Bob Tripanicr. The Richfield team next moved to Minnetonka where, under the expert direction of Chuck Thoreson they rolled methodically past a badly outclassed Minnetonka team 34-0. In winning their fourth victory in five starts, the Spartans scored one touchdown in the first period, added a pair in the second, and finished with two more in the first 3 minutes of the third quarter. Coach Collison threw in the reserves to hold down the onslaught after the first five touchdowns. Richfield dominated play in every phase of the game. The forward wall, led by Jeff Halcnza, manhandled the Skippers as the running and passing of the Spartans reached a high point for the season. They scored the first three times they had their hands on the ball and were never forced into a punting situation. The squad had a scoring field day as Chuck Thoreson scored two touchdowns and counted two extra points; Tim Wheeler scored a touchdown and two extra points; and Ken Smith caught two Thoreson aerials to account for the rest of the scoring.

NopkinS 0 October 12 found our Richfield Spartans meeting the Warriors of Hopkins for our 1962 Homecoming Game. Our Homecoming slogan 'Chopkins' proved to be an accurate description of the highlight of the Homecoming Week. It was a game of many disappointments as the Spartans threatened often but couldn't score. Penalties and mental mistakes were the causes of most of the difficulties. The only score Richfield managed was a 46 yard drive off of an intercepted pass. Wheeler and Branch drove the ball deep into Hopkins territory before Thorcson took it over from the 4. Wheeler ran the extra point making the score 7-0. The rest of the game was a hard-nosed, rib-rocking battle of the defenses with neither team's offense being effective. The Hopkins line was big and strong and gave the Spartans their toughest game of the year. It was probably the best game Hopkins had played. But, the Spartans' line was bigger and stronger and wouldn't give an inch. The Spartans' defense was headed by Tom Person who was voted Lake Conference Lineman of the Week. After this fine showing, everyone looked forward to the Spartans' next contest against long time rival, Bloomington. Chuck Birch Ken Smith prepares to punt as the Spartan line sets up protection. RXcii eW 1_9 0_ A finely tuned Spartan squad next invaded Bloomington to play a highly keyed Bear squad. Utilizing the best blocking and tackling of the season, and with a nearly perfect offense, the Spartans muscled past a tough Bloomington team 19 0. The third shutout in a row. The offense was led by Gary Soderberg who ran and passed like a veteran. He passed to Dick Metz for the second touchdown and scored the last touchdown himself. The first score came when Tim Wheeler scored from the 2 yard line after a recovered fumble by Jim Branch on the 6. The defense was outstanding in this game as Bloomington penetrated Spartan territory-only twice during the whole game. Many was the time when Bloomington had third or fourth down with long yardage to go for a first down. The line charge was so hard that their linemen were in Bloomington’s backficld as much as their own backs were. By the end of the game, there was no doubt in anyone's mind as to who was the better of the two teams. 161 Ken Smith Jim Brihch, left, and Bob Bunker (68) move in to stop Edina's Doug Fisher after receiving the handoff from quarterback Ted Carlson. BdUtfo 2J 6 The Lake Conference Championship was on the line as Edina invaded Richfield for the final contest of the year. A spirited and determined group from Richfield battled and clearly outplayed a tough Edina unit for the first quarter. Richfield scored early in the second quarter from the Edina 15 on a pass play by Tim Wheeler. A pitchout that looked like a run pulled the Edina defense up leaving Ken Smith wide open in the end zone. Tim threw and the pass hit him perfectly. The point after was not good and the score was 6-0. After the kickoff, Edina drove to the Richfield 20 where they were stopped on downs and Richfield took over. On the next play, Ken Nelson took the ball and ran 79 yards to the Hornet 2. However, the play was called back because of a questionable penalty. This was the turning point of the game as the Spartans obviously showed a let down. On the next play the Spartans fumbled and Edina recovered. They didn't score but for the rest of the game Richfield couldn't seem to hang onto the ball and fumbled no less than five times within their own 20 yard line. Edina turned but two of these fumbles into touchdowns, being stopped cold the other three tries. Chuck Thorcson ThtoViMlhj From Row: Chuck Burns. Jeff Peterson. Ken Ogden. Deane Lambert. Pat Elliot.

With but two returning veterans able to play, the Spartans displayed great poise, terrific rebounding and aggressiveness. The Spartans ran up a string of three conference and four victories over-all before invading the Rob-binsdale court for an early season showdown. After being down by as much as ten before the half, Richfield came storming back to tic it up with five minutes left, only to lose in the last two minutes 57-52. Richfield then put together two more victories to remain in the race before coming back after the vacation break to lose four of their next five games to ruin all title hopes. The Spartans then put together their best £ame of the year as they settled an earlier beating by squeaking by Robbinsdale 71-70 and then winning four of their next five games to go into sub-district play tied for third place. Throughout the season, Spartan cagers were honored for their fine play. Tim Wheeler received prep star of the week and both Tim and Jim Low received Lake stars of the week for their fine performance against Robbinsdale.

The Spartans opened sub-district play by crushing Shakopec of the Minnesota v� Conference 71-33. Richfield's reserves ran up a 14-3 lead midway through the first quarter before the first team came on to increase the margin to a staggering 42-17 deficit at halftime. Throttled by the Spartan defense, Slukopee managed a mere three field goals in the first half and finished with eight. Despite brief appearances, Wheeler and Low led the victors with 16 and 14 points respectively as the whole squad saw extensive action. Turning in one of their best performances, the Spartans ran over Minnetonka 60-32 in first round action of the District 18 Tourney. The Skippers held the upper hand at the end of the first period 12-11 but then couldn't hang on as the Spartans opened a 30-21 halftime lead. Led by the 26-point production of Chuck Birch, the Spartans out-scored Tonka 30-11 in the second half and held them to just two field goals to earn the right to take on Robbinsdale in district semi-final action. Too much height and muscle was the Spartans talc of woe as they lost to powerful Robbinsdale 64-56. The Spartans made countless errors and coupled with cold shooting and lack of rebounds, fell behind 34-22 at the half. Once again Chuck Birch led the attack with 15 points as the Spartans cut the lead to 60-54 in the final minutes only to miss shots and lose 64-56. With Tim Wheeler being named to the All-District team, head coach Parrel and assistant coaches Crosby and Stoez wound up the season with a fine 14-7 over all record.

This year's squads had many fine individual performances during the year but the squad as a whole couldn't seem to put together one good match in their own conference. With assistant coaches Harold Maimer and I.loyd Grandprcy working hard with the boys, the squad wrestled to a 3-5 conference record and an over all record of 8-5. A few breaks in those close decisions could have meant victory instead of defeat. Against outside competition, Richfield showed the strength of the conference by trouncing four other squads and surprising Columbia Heights in another. The Columbia Heights match was the highlight of the season as Heights was ranked high in the state and Richfield wasn't expected to give much of a battle. But Coach Ward's grapplcrs came back from an 11-9 deficit to win four straight matches in the middle weights and then hung on for a 23-17 victory’. The strength of the conference was again shown as the top four teams in the conference posted victories in post-season matches over four of the top eight teams in the state. During the regular season Captain Bruce Warren led the team with an 11-2 record followed by Vern Aas with 7-0, Mike Evans with 6-2, John Carlson with 7-2 and Dale Mahnke with 8-3. Richfield went into the District 18 tourney confident and came away with 29 points, good for seventh place. Four Spartan grapplcrs qualified for the Region Five tourney by placing in the district. They were Bruce Warren, who took second in the district, Mike Evans, Bruce Etter and Dick Pacholke, all finishing third in their class. As they advanced to the region they found the goings tougher and they all were defeated. Region qualifier Dick Pacholke.

Never before has a team dominated the league as the Richland Spartans did in winning the Lake Conference title. Said to be the best hockey team in the history of the school, Richfield compiled a 16-0 record in conference play and 22-4 overall. This was the first time a Lake team has gone undefeated in league play since the double round robin schedule was adopted. In Lake action Richfield seemed to hold onto the theory of score early and then play defensive hockey. Richfield dominated the league but had a few close calls as in their 1-0 victory over Minnetonka. In the final Lake contest of the year, Richfield had to overcome Park leads of 1-0 and 2-1 before Rich Hansen and Jim Branch both hit the red light in the third period for a 3-1 win and an undefeated season in the league. During Christmas vacation the squad traveled to the Coleraine Tourney where they beat Grand Rapids and lost to Greenway of Coleraine for the title. The Greenway game could have gone either way as their third goal came after the buzzer but was counted and the Spartans lost 3-1. In Region Six competition, Richfield had a rough going as they squeaked out wins over RobbinsdaJc 2-1 and in a wild free-for-all oyer Bloomington 3-2. They then played Edina for the title in what was to be expected to be the top Lake game of the year. Through the first part of the period it looked like a really tough hockey game but then Richfield opened up with a four goal spurt in the last six minutes of the first period to lead 4-0. Exchanging a couple of goals in the second period, Richfield led 6-2 before the defense slacked off and Edina scored two more. But the Spartans held on to win 6-4 and once again the)- were in the State Tournament. During the year, Kip Myre had nine shut-outs which earned him a spot on the All-Conference first team along with Ken Smith who won the conference scoring crown, John Wells and Co-Captain Jim Branch. Barry’ Bloomgren and Tom Peterson were named to the second team with Co-Captain Rich Hansen being given honorable mention. Ken Smith was also named to the tournament's All-State team and Jim Branch was named to the WCCO All-State team and on an All-American high school hockey team. Terry Knutson of Minnetonka makes a vain attempt to stop Rich Hansen’s flip into the nets. SCORING goals assists points K.

Both teams went scoreless through the first period, although they each had open shots. The Rams scored at 4:10 of the middle segment before Richfield came back four minutes later when Tim Olson fired the puck in after assists from Doug and Ken Smith. With a little over four minutes left in the game, Roseau came up with a power play and scored for a 2-1 victory. Richfield’s failure to finish off in front of the Roseau net meant the difference as the Spartans missed open shots on the Ram goal. Kip Myre had a formidable performance as he had 23 stops to 13 for the Ram goalie. R2 RoosW l Richfield avenged an earlier loss to Roosevelt by beating the Teddies 2-1 in a triple overtime thriller. Rich Hansen skated around from behind the Roosevelt cage to score unassisted at two minutes of the third overtime period. Roosevelt scored first as the)- stunned the Spartans in the first ten seconds of play. Ken Smith knotted the score at 1:39 of the first period and then the two clubs settled down for a long defensive tussle. Again Kip Myre was outstanding in the Richfield nets, turning back 36 shots for the victory.

Bombing Myre with a barrage of shots, Ramsey scored twice in the first period as Richfield could manage to fire but one shot at the Ramsey goalie. Doug Smith took brother Ken's pass near the Ramsey blue line and scored from 20 feet at 5:45 of the third period to bring the Spartans within 2-1. But in the final minutes when Richfield pulled Myre from the nets, All-State Bob Boysen went around the packed Spartan defense and hit the open net with 30 seconds left in the contest. The Spartans simply ran out of gas in this one following their grueling class with Roosevelt. As in the first game, Richfield was out shot 28-15.

Richfield's first year in Lake Conference golf didn't bring much in the way of victories, but our golfers received much experience and fun from their season. This year's team included only two seniors who won't be back for the '63 season. The boys practiced at the Fort Snclling course and played their home matches at Minnesota Valley Country Club. Inconsistency plagued the team throughout the year as they lost to second-place Edina 12-6, but then lost to seventh-place Mound 16-2. Jack Sykora was the number one man and had the distinction of being the first person to letter in golf at Richfield. With able personnel in Jack Sykora, Jim Gouge ( 3 man). Jack Gcrlinger ( 4 man), and Fred Wallman ( 6 man) coming back, Coach Carlson can look forward to bettering this year's 0-8 record.

Tabbed as an inexperienced team with only eight returning seniors from last year's fourth place finishers, our team came through in true Spartan fashion, finishing a surprising third. Led by four consistent seniors and helped by ever improving juniors and sophomores, the Howard Norness coached sejuad reaped many honors throughout the past season. Starting off with a fourth place finish at the Mound relays; picking up momentum by-finishing first at the Indian Relays at Mankato; and then topping the season with an impressive 13Z2 points and fifth place in the District. Placing in the District were Jim Mitchell, third in the shot put; Gary Moss, third in the 440; Bob Babekuhl, tied for third in the high jump; King Smalley, fifth in the 440; and the mile relay team of Moss. Smalley, Blair, and Morrow which placed third. With an impressive nucleus of sixteen returning lettermen, G ach Norness and assistant coaches Collison- and Halgrcn. look forward to improving upon last year's third place conference finish and to a very successful year.

The Spartans had a 6-3 conference record, dropping two early games. 4-3 to Park and 7-1 to Edina. Richfield lost their last conference game to Bloomington 9-7. then stormed back to win their last twelve games in a row, beating Austin for the championship and finishing with a 20-3 over all record. This was Coach Olive's first State Baseball Tournament after having many near misses. While winning four conference titles, three district crowns and this year's region and state titles, Coach Olive has compiled a fantastic record of 90 wins and only 11 losses, far and away the best in the state of Minnesota. All-State Mike Sadck puts the ta£ on Central's Tom Boldt. D(v Reign When analyzing this year's team, All-Conference Glenn Nord would have to rate as the team’s most valuable player throughout the year. As John Wells came into his own, the team felt his presence greatly and when the pitching seemed to lag, Tom Lind-berg was added to the mound staff with splendid results. The big bats of Ken Smith and John Drury provided those extra base hits when needed and the fine hurling of Dick Hoffman and Lindberg added much to the team’s success. Through the season Ken Smith, John Drury and John Wells led the hitting department, all hitting over .350. Dick Hoffman led the mound staff with a 12-3 record with Lindberg, Kieselhorst and Thore-son compiling an 11-0 record. Richfield was well represented on the All-State team with Dick Hoffman. Ken Smith and Mike Sadek all being honored. But ever)’ man on the squad was important this year and all added something to the victories.

In the second inning the Spartans jumped on Davison for two runs on two hits, two stolen bases and a walk. They reached the Springfield ace for two more in the third and sent him in hiding with a pair in the fifth. John Drury and Ken Smith paced the nine hit attack, each collecting two hits and each stealing two bases. Hoffman went the distance and allowed just two hits while striking out six and was charged with two unearned runs. The Spartans put the game on ice with three runs in the seventh inning off reliefer Dave Neiman to wrap it up. Richfield _s Qt. Paul CeMhal 3 This was probably the most exciting contest of the season as Richfield won a 12 inning thriller from St. Paul Central. The Spartans scored in the third inning as john Wells lived on an error, stole second, took third in another error and then stole home. The Minutemen came back with one and might have scored another if it hadn’t been for a terrific throw from the outfield to nail Central’s Tom Boldt at the plate. Don Vro-man scored in the fourth and then in the sixth Ken Smith tripled and later scored making it 3-1 before Central came back with two runs in the bottom of the sixth. Tom Lindberg had been handling the pitching chores until the eight when Dick Hoffman came on and stopped Central for the rest of the contest. Richfield finally broke the spell in the 12th as Bob Lary singled and Ken Smith followed with his third hit of the night. Then John Drury unloaded with a triple to left for his third hit, scoring Lary and Smith. Hoffman then put down Central in order to end the game. 4 Austin 3 Gary Kicselhorst got the call in the championship game but yielded to Tom Lindberg with the bases loaded without retiring a man. Lindberg promptly put down the side without a run. Capitalizing on Richfield's errors, Austin scored in the fourth and again in the fifth before Richfield cot into the scoring column. Mike Sadek opened the bottom of the fifth with a walk and John Wells followed with a single. Bob Lary then blasted a double, scoring Sadek. John Drury tied it up by lacing a line single to score Wells and Lary. Both teams went scoreless through regulation innings with Lindberg hurling magnificent ball before having to give way to Chuck Thoreson in the eighth. Lindberg had pitched his quota of 14 innings set by the State High School League for the tournament. Austin threatened in the top of the tenth when they loaded the bases on walks with two outs before Thoreson got the last man to ground out. In the bottom of the inning Richfield loaded the bases on an error, intentional walk and Glenn Nord’s bunt single. Two Spartans were put down before Mike Sadek ran the count to 3-2 and then walked, forcing in Nord and Richfield had its first State Championship. 180 tts Qiosoiv The Spartan tennis season started on March 12, 1962, with 30 boys showing an interest in the sport. However, due to the poor spring much of the practice for the first few weeks had to be held inside. By the time practice was moved outside the number of participants had dropped to twenty, most of them being beginners. Dale Chapman was the only lettcrman returning. But these boys had the spirit to work and the scjuad improved. The team finished fifth in the conference. Dale Chapman and Roy Milburn moved on to make fine showings in the District 18 Tournament where the Spartans finished third. Dale finished second in the singles and thereby qualified for the Region V Tournament. At this tournament Dale demonstrated extremely fine competitive spirit which gave him the singles championship for Region V. Later in the state tournament Dale was eliminated by default.

A course in foreign language not only teaches a speaking and reading knowledge of a second language, but enriches the student’s understanding of other nations, other ailturcs, and other times. Languages arc our means of communication with other countries. Mastery of a foreign language promotes better citizenship and enables each student to comprehend the problems which all of us must face in the modern world. Students at RHS have a choice of four different languages- German, French, Spanish, and Latin. Two years of a language must be taken to receive credit. A third year of any language may be taken if enough students arc interested. Each language acquaints the students with grammar and vocabulary. Students also acquire a great deal of knowledge about the different countries and their cultures. Language lab is one of the most important aspects of learning a foreign language. It helps students acquire a speaking as well as a reading and writing knowledge of a language. Various classroom projects aid students in their studies. Putting up bulletin boards, panel discussions in a foreign language, and skits are a few of the special projects in which students participate. 188 This bulletin board, made by Diana McClure and Jan Habcck. illustrates the various aspects of a French Christmas.

Physical education provides physical activity needed by everyone to grow and keep physically fit. It gives each student the opportunity to develop his own special skills in individual and team sports. Health education classes are designed to develop a knowledge and an appreciation of the anatomy and physiology of the human body. Health is required of all sophomores. Sophomore girls have a special unit on home nursing. The students receive the opportunity of learning and actually practicing the home nursing skills. These skills are often of great value in later life. Physical education is required of all sophomores, but juniors and seniors may take more advanced courses if they wish to. The girls' physical education course is geared toward more proficient play and advanced skills. The course of study includes field hockey, golf, badminton, and recreational planning. Recreational planning is particularly valuable to girls wishing to become playground leaders. Boys' physical education places emphasis on good sportsmanship and developing skills. Some sports the boys participate in arc golf, tennis, archery, hunting, fishing, and camping. This program also aims to stimulate thinking and further the interest for those planning on a career in physical education and recreation. Steve Holland and Steve Brown arc taught to master some of the fundamental skills of basketball. Physical education students arc given the opportunity Physical Fitness Kathy Nelson is practicing the forehand stroke. This is one of the basic skills that must be mastered in order to play good tennis. These sophomore boys are actively engaged in a game of volleyball.

Richfield has an excellent Science Department under the able direction of Mr. Loyd Fczlcr. An extensive program, covering a variety of fields, is offered to all interested science students. Sophomores arc required to take biology and many go on to take chemistry and physics. Those students who become particularly interested in cither biology or chemistry arc given the opportunity to explore these fields more thoroughly in Biology II and Chemistry II. One of the most important laboratory experiments done by Biology II students is the dissection of a cat. The Chemistry I course is designed to fulfill the necessary background for those who plan to major in chemistry. Richfield has many excellent science students who have won awards and gained recognition outside of school as well as working on special projects of their own after school. The Science Department at Richfield High School has awakened many students to the necessity and importance of science in everyday living.

Dee Ann Daly is Richfield'S Homemaker of Tomorrow. Many RHS students have achieved success outside the classroom as well as in it. There are many students who have made significant accomplishments at Richfield, but it is difficult to recognize all of them. There arc, however, a few important achievements that should be noted. A few of these students arc pictured on these pages. The National Honor Society recognizes those students of outstanding character, leadership, scholarship, and service. In the spring of each year new members are chosen by the faculty and are initiated into the society. Our debate team advanced to the state tournament this year and made a very fine showing in a field of 23 teams. This is particularly significant since this is only the second year the team has been in existence. The members of this fine squad are Chris Hamlcy, Sue Grande, Carol Willis, Warren Winden, Carol Krueger, and Bill Ovcrmoc. The team is coached by Mr. Richard Fawcett and Mr. Heikkinen. Each year, a homemaking test is given to all interested senior girls, and the winner is chosen as RHS Homemaker of Tomorrow. This year the award went to Dee Ann Daly who achieved the highest score in the test. There were several outstanding Richfield students entered in the speech contest last year. Rog White and Mark Ahlquist were chosen as alternates to the state contest while Paul Nungesser and Dick Metz achieved superior ratings in the regional contest. The students mentioned above represent just a few of the many fine accomplishments of RHS students. Mark Ahlquist is not only a finalist in the National Merit Scholarship Test, but he was also an alternate at last year's state speech contest. 206 It B TfiO'tOugWly ytt nirpt iy1 Pau!
