With blank stares the typical Sam and Sally Sophomore wandered down the emmense halls of R.H.S. mumbling, S2? G4? HI ? Of course, there was always the handy junior or senior to help with directions, most often: Take the elevator up to fourth floor and turn right by the pool. Be careful of the polo ponies though, they're restless in the mornings! Despite all, Sam and Sally survived the first hectic days and went on to new and exciting high school big time adventures. Buying class rings provided a thrill to warm Sam and Sally's hearts, along with buying their first official yearbook (what's a supplement?). But despite these thrills, the most exciting moments had to come the night of the big football game. Anxious sophs impatiently cheered on Big Red, intently waiting for the big moment when they could rush off (or rather walk off) to meet the gang or crowd or mob at Bridegemen's where despite a few East-West rivalries, Sam and Sally managed to gain new friends every week. Regardless of the traumas of being a soph-O-more, Sam and Sally survived their first year at R.H.S. But remember when you know that It's gotta be a SOPH! everyone was once just as Sam and Sally were in 1974-75. UPPER LEFT: Sam wonders, Will it hurt coach ?

Coronation activities were headed by co-chairmen Pat Anderson and Dawn Danner. On October 2, students, alumni, and friends gathered in the gym while C.L. Directions played. With Tom Niemackle acting as emcee, each of the candidates and their escorts made their way down the traditional red carpet. A note of nostalgia was added to the evening by Barb Langseth, the 1957 Homecoming Queen, who reminised about the fads of the fifties. The Four Musketeers brought back the old barbershop style of singing as they entertained the crowd. Further entertainment was provided by the Madrigal Singers and the Tapaires. The suspense mounted as the moment of decision grew nearer and when Kim Ashland was finally picked the crowd gave a burst of approval. After Candy Kurth relinquished her crown to her successor, Kim laughingly exlcaimed, I guess I'm going to have to grow some more hair to keep my crown from falling off. After the crowning the crowd retired to the lunchroom for the Queen's Reception. The following Saturday 200 couples arrived at the lunchroom for the Homecoming dance. Articles from past Homecoming issues of the Spotlite lined the foyer walls and pictures of couples decorated another hall to depict the theme of this year's dance, Just You and Me. As the band, Flow played, some couples gathered on the dance floor while others took time to sign in or look for their leaf on the big tree on one wall. Mr. John Diana and Mr. John Nelson were kept busy taking pictures of couples who wanted a lasting memory of the evening. As the dance drew to a close, it was certain that foremost, this night would long be remembered. UPPER LEFT: Couples dance to the music of Flow . MIDDLE LEFT: Shawna Brennen ? butlon up Don Wolpers.

On October 4 and October 5, the spirit was overflowing when both factors were present as Big Red took on Edina West Cougars for Homecoming 1974. On Thursday evening, the Spartan soccer crew again came through with a 3 to 1 victory over Edina. Scoring the winning goals for the Spartans were Tom Scudder, Bill Gardner and Mike Kennedy. 22 Homecoming On Friday, the Spartans successfully erased the claim of Edina West students who had painted several E.W.'s 1 on Richfield's track, press box, and concession stands, as they defeated the Cougars in a tough 10-3 decision. With the help of junya McHenry's 39 yard punt return, Dan Bane smashed his way to the only touchdown of the game. At halftime, the 1974 Homecoming Queen Kim Ashland and her royal court were honored as they drove around the track and then proceeded onto the field, where last year's Queen Candy Kurth passed on the symbolic torch to Queen Kim.

Homecoming 23 Student Lounge Lends Intimate Setting for The Crucible A combination of realistic costuming and brilliant acting brought alive the horror and terror of the Salem witchtrials to Richfield students as a cast of 20 performed Arthur Miller's “The Crucible. Forced to relocate the play because of the remodeling of the auditorium, the director and producer Lee Dudycha commented that “The student lounge provided a perfect setting with the right touch of intimacy for such a play as “The Crucible . His comments proved to be true as effective lighting transformed the lounge into the blackness of Salem, 1692. Greyed hair and wrinkled faces were obtained by skillful use of make up to transform RHS students into characters that served as historical models of that time period. Strong acting performances highlighted the two act play. The actors and actresses had received unusual insights into their roles beforehand as they had seen the Guthrie production of “The Crucible and had had a chance to talk to the actors themselves. The result was evident. The piercing screams of the girls who “saw the devil in their neighbors and the terrified denials of the accused sent shivers through packed audiences. With the final scene showing the tragic fate of the inhabitants of Salem, audiences slowly moved home, shaken and stirred by the powerful impact of the 1974 fall play. TOP LEFT: Mike Scott (Rev.

Fall Play 25 Sadie Hits The Hay If anyone had been passing Richfield's lunchroom between eight and eleven o'clock on the evening of December 7,1974, their ears would have been met by the sound of polkas. Were the senior citizens having a square dance? No, it was really R.H.S.'s annual Sadie Hawkins Dance. Planning had been started months before by the Senior Planning Committee. According to Karen Franzmier, “Everyone seemed to want something different than last year's fifties dance. It was for this reason that they decided to use the barnyard theme and polka band. Many worked long and hard planning decorations, picture backdrops, publicity and the like. Richfield students soon saw a farm couple staring at them from posters and heard daily announcements of the top ten eligible senior guys. The night of December 7 soon arrived and most of the 229 couples dressed quite in the spirit of the dance. Overalls, patches, suspenders and straw hats were common sights. The school itself had also been dressed for the occasion. Scarecrows sitting on haystacks were found in the halls, the sign in sheet was a big paper cow, and couples names were written on paper animals. Even the refreshment stand, which sold pop, was a country store. The Polka Men was the band for the dance. According to Leslie Hagen, Most couples tried to dance, but some were more successful than others. There were even a few collisions as couples got swinging! Pat Thompson added, The polka was a good idea because it was different and everyone could catch on fast. Marrying Sam (Dean Lapham and jim Edberg) was in attendance for those couples with matrimonial desires. For a mere 25c, a marriage license and ring could be purchased. Just a word of warning to those couples who managed to get hooked without paying; you're not legally married and are surely living in sin! TOP LEFT: Paula Kursu and Joel Peterson swing to a polka.

Sadie Hawkins 27 Tinsel Turns To Starlight The Horizons Club was an organization of about 110 girls whose theme was involvment with people. They worked to get the students acquainted with and involved with one another. The girls were divided up into several chapters, and each of these groups were involved in many activities of their own. The main events of the club as a whole, were the carnival, the November breakfast, and the formal dance. The carnival was very successful and drew a large crowd. The club members dressed in carnival costumes, with each chapter responsible for a different booth. Features of the carnival proved to be the whipped cream kissing booth, the marriage booth, the minnow swallowing contest, the haunted house and the jail. About 50 sleepy girls showed up for the traditional 6:00 morning get together held at Perkins during the fall. The formal dance was held after Christmas this year on Staurday, January 18, and thus the name was changed from Tinsel Twirl to Starlight. 28 Horizons As the band, Woodbridge, played, 100 couples danced beneath the mirrored globe which swept starlight across the floor. Punch and cookies were provided as refreshments, and snowflakes decorated the windows of the corridor. Couples stood in line for pictures and brought home their falling stars as memories of a special evening.

Breaking all standards of human decency, a sudden loud bzzzzzz has rudely interrupted dreams of vacations and graduation. After staring at the clock through slits (called eyes at other times) it is decided that a few more minutes of rest will do no harm Unfortunately just at that moment good old Mom cheerfully informs you that breakfast is on the table and “You'll miss your bus if you don't get up now. “After styling your hair with deoderant its time to sprint to the bus stop. Thus begins another day. 12:07 P.M. Sexing fruit flies had never been your specialty and after staring at ebonies and miniatures for 20 minutes they all look alike. The other fumes had already intoxicated your partner and you were sinking fast when your specimens begin to wake up and fly around the microscope light. That is at least the unsquished ones were. Those that hadn't made it through the rush looked reminiscent of your mothers homemade chow mein casserole. And of course there is the promise of a 2AM date with your flies. 2:13 P.M. Its been a long, long, long six hours and somehow the thrill of hearing your history teacher relate the events of the 1942 Yugoslavian bank crash has been dulled by the drone of his monotonous voice. The only logical course of action: sleep. Especially since its the easiest way to forget about the English test on Ethan Frome that just didn't quite get studied for. It doesn't really matter however for in just 12 minutes the bell of freedom will ring and with the music of Benny Goodman floating down the hall, 2450 bodies (yours included) will jam down the stairways toward daylight. Until then: Zzzz. 7:46 P.M. “With age comes responsibility said Dad, and consequently you've now joined the working force of America. Wait-ressing at minimum wage and, taking notice of the managers position at all times, its the off time; time to relax and think off all you can buy with your new money. Unfortunately the money goes faster than when you didn't have any. A clicking noise attracts your attention as the group who had asked for seperate checks is dropping the tip in their water glasses icy fingers again. 30 Calender Student's Day 9:15A.M. Second hour means study hall and today you have discovered that you have a Crse Conflict so its off to L.C. II to See Yr Coun. After waiting in the A-Be line for 30 minutes your counselor becomes ill and you are transferred to the W-Z line for another ten minutes. Finally the big moment arrives and you find that you are the only girl in Bachelor Know- How. After consulting The Big Board an opening is found in the home ec course that you really wanted. The only problem is changing 5 other classes to get it. 4:19 P.M. After 2:25 its time to relax and enjoy one's self, right? Wrong, since Bigtime Varsity Athletics has called you to join its ranks. After 20,000 windsprints, drills and benchjumps the call of the jock has seemed to have lost its appeal. Itsunbelivable how many muscles can hurt at the same time causing the mind to become blank and the eyes glazed. However, practice has just begun and as the coach approaches its time to resume moving — just in time for a nice little scrimmage against the starting five. Practice makes perfect, right? 11:08A.M. Its finally lunch time. After battling through the milk line to get warm skim milk you find that all your friends have gone on a field trip and vou are eating alone. Munching on a marvelous bologna sandwich (only your fourth one this week) and staring at THE eirl across the lunch room, there is suddenly a warm dripping feeling on your back; today's lunch menu included tomato soup. Oh well, the new shirt you were wearing wasn't the right color anyway. 12:51 A.M. Works done at 11:30; or is it? Now comes the time for the Homework. Breaking all previous records, you have work in every class! Yesterday's Algebra will have to wait till tomorrow since the ripple tank physics experiment takes precedence. But before that, the English paper due tomorrow should be started and the history project assigned 6 weeks ago must be completed to get rid of the book due 3 weeks ago. In the backround Mom's voice yelling You'll get mono slowly fades and the head sinks and .. thus ends another day. Calender Student's Dav 31 Renewed Interest Sparks Fire Ice Festivities 1975's coronation for Fire and Ice was held on ice — literally — at the Richfield Ice Arena on February 26. The annual event was combined with an exciting student vs. faculty hockey game that provided the fire. As cheerleaders, led by captain Larry Rasinski, entertained the crowd, the students played hard but lost 8-7. Between the second and third periods, the red carpet was rolled out onto the ice, and the arena was transformed for the ceremony. Led by Homecoming Queen Kim Ashland, the Sophomore and Junior Prince Candidates and the Senior King candidates carefully made their way down the ice. The M.C.'s for the ceremony, Cindy Varosky and Sandy Lane, led the coronation as Lisa Tjornholm and Denise Sandquist provided the musical entertainment. Finally, after several trips up and down the line, Paul Amos was chosen as Sophomore Prince and Geoff Haroway was chosen as Junior Prince. Dale Heebl was crowned as the 1975 Fire and Ice King with his reception held after the game at the school The tradition of the Fire and Ice dance was revived on February 28 with attendance figures almost double those of past years. With the accompaniment of the band Woodbridge , couples signed in, danced, or stopped to visit with friends at tables in the cafeteria. Punch, brownies, and cookies were provided as refreshments and the photography teachers again took pictures of couples to end a successful Fire and Ice Week.

The competition began on January 23 at Armstrong where Richfield was one of ten schools striving for the district title. Only two schools advanced to the regional contest, and from regions, only one advanced to the state comptetion, held on February 8. The competition on all levels was rigid. Richfield's contest entry was Sganarelle or The Imaginary Cuckold . It was a stylized comedy by Moliere, the playwright thought of as the standard for comedy. The central theme of the play was appearances may be deceiving. It involved a series of mix ups between the four main characters which eventually threatened to undo relationships. The problem was finally resolved when all four finally got together and the true story slowly unwound before them. Under the direction of Ms. Delores Ziemer and Mike Tracy, the student director and stage manager, the cast practised hard and long. As an added obstacle, the cast was forced to put up with the inconvenience of an auditorium being remodeled but learned to adjust to their different setting to produce a successful play.

On the Richfield level, program director Mr. Gilbert felt that the organization was very important in helping kids get to know cultures as it aids greatly in future communications. There was an A.F.S. club made up of interested RHS students designed to raise funds and help exchange students to understand Richfield's atmosphere. 36 AFS Quite naturally, this years AFS students found American life style different in comparison to their home countries. Marcia Borelli from Brazil saw RHS as a “very organized institution. French student Didier Connan found most course offerings, “close to what one will face in real life. It was through students such as Di and Mar that AFS hoped to promote an understanding between different cultures. Foreign language students benefitted greatly from this program along with all students who came in contact with the adopted AFS'ers. TOP LEFT: Didier Conen and Marcia Borelli, RHS AFS'ers.

AFS 37 38 Clubs Competition, Travel Spark Club Participation Though the Foreign Language department as a whole was active this year sponsoring such things as a German dinner and a Christmas party, German Club remained the only surviving language club. Starting the year as they had for the past ten years, the Germans trounced the French and Spanish students in the annual Soccer game. Fast action volleyball games and hard hitting broomball games also provided fun and excitement. The highlight of the year, though, was eating at the Bavarian Hunter in Stillwater, the only authentic German restaurant in Minnesota. Two busloads of Germans left school at 11:00 to eat wienerschnitzel, sauerbraten and knockwurst. After lunch the owner showed films of his hometown in Germany and German Christmas carols were sung. Above all, however, the Germans were still best known for their hardsell techniques. If a student wasn't full from buying donuts in the morning before school, the Germans were more than happy to sell him their almond and crunch candy bars. Buttons declaring, Kuss mich, Ich spreche Deutsch were readily available, as the Germans strove to gain enough money for their Easter and summer trips to Germany. . The Chess Club began their season in November with a new advisor, Mr. Gary Kampf. The club's season ran until January, culminating in the final playoffs. Richfield was a member of the Southwest division of the Twin City Senior High Chess League. Forty teams comprised the entire league with each division competing at a centralized location. In Richfield's case, their tournaments were held at Sibley. Each school entered five players in competition. The school was then awarded one point for each win and one half point for each tie to compile a team score. As the season drew to an end, the top two teams in each division continued on to the Twin City Tournament. TOP LEFT: Chess players analyze a game from a previous match.

Well, it was neither the Exotic Rocks Collection, nor the Eastern Remers College. At RHS, E. R.C. Stood for the Early Risers Club. The club met every morning at 6:30 from November to March. No one was ever turned away. The hour was filled with the hard hitting aggressive style of basketball that E.R.C. was rapidly becoming famous for: Abusive language and hacking around. Dr. James Grimmer (chief advisor) theorized that the free flow of emotions between students and faculty occured because it was one of the few times they met on the same competitive level. In other words, all was fair in love, war and E.R.C.

E.R.C. 41 Small Groups Plan Large Activities Two groups at R.H.S. whose meetings consisted primarily of planning activities were the Senior Planning Committee and the National Honor Society. This year, Senior Planning wascomposed of 15 active, ambitious seniors. Their mission was to plan the many activities and dances which were senior sponsored each year. The first obstacle, Sadie Hawkins, was a real challange with the elaborate decorations. With little or no time to recuperate, the committee regrouped and charged on to head the soc-hop, talent show, Fire and Ice, and the Senior Banquet. Shouts of, But I'm not even going! , and I'll be glad when it's all over. were frequently heard. The gang in Senior Planning discovered the essence of diligence — little glory and much work in their activities this year. 42 Scnior Planning Committee Facing the task of paying for the banquet 44 two-year members of the National Honor Society handled not only concessions but also banquet plans and arrangements for singing valentines. Fearless officers, Jim Stein, Karen Franzmeir, Renee Langendorf and Nancy Prottengier, held most of the responsibility for the N.H.S. fund raising success. The highlight for the year was by far the banquet where 100 seniors and 72 juniors were installed. TOP LEFT: Senior sponsored Soc-Hop was a huge success.

NHS 43 Senate, Council Strive to Open Government to Student Body The student's representation at RHS consisted of elected officials from their peer group to form the student senate and a part of the school council. This year, they began again to deal with controversial issues and in some cases, students not holding offices became active. Richfield was noted for its progressive procedure in high school politics. Our student enrollment was represented by two governmental sections. One of these was the school council. Eight students shared positions with three administrators, eight teachers, one non-member parliamentarian, and one nonmember secretary. The power with which the council dealt was set by the limitations decided upon by the school board. The other portion of the student governing body was the senate. This was made up of a Administrative Committee headed by Peter Vogel and an Academic Committee headed by Jeanine Haar, each having three elected representatives, from each of the three classes. Of the senate's main duties, one of the most outstanding seemed to be to serve as a sounding board for the student body. Revisions in the honor pass system proved to be a major problem of the senate this winter as several new proposals were debated upon in open informal meetings. Many Richfield students shed their apathetic labels in order to influence major decisions of the senate. This involvment extended to other senate and council projects as an audit system and a student exchange were developed by the senate. Student Body President Mike Scott also instituted a communications proposal which let Senate members report individually to social studies classes in order to open communications between the students and their elected representatives.

At their first tournament, the varsity team of Dave Lutes, John Klippen, John Taft and Glen Bruder won two debates and lost four. Many people believed that Richfield Debate would not amount to much this year after the graduation of all of the varsity team last spring. But, since October, dedication on all levels brought the team to a 70 percent win record by the end of December. In January the varsity team continued its four year tradition by capturing the Region Five title. At the State Tournament, Richfield placed second in the consolation division and took third at the National Forensics League Tournament. This season was a time of rebuilding for the debators. Next year promises to be extremely successful with three of the four varsity members returning, combined with the tremendous job the novice coaches, Ms. Sundre, Ms. Buss and Mr. Raub did to develop the potential of the sophomore and junior debators.

In preparation for the 74-75 school year, the staff recruited members, held workshops on journalistic style and sent three staffers to a training session at the U. of M. Some of the staffers were quite involved in journalistic activities outside of the production of the paper. News editor Colleen Seifert was a member of the Minn. High School Press Association board; Scott Toney, graphics editor, was awarded several prizes for work in art contests; and sports editor Dale Schuveiller wrote for the publication let's Play Hockey. 46 Spotlitc The objective of the paper was to focus on students in the school: their activities, their beliefs, and their concerns. The staff tried to keep the school informed on school activities while still maintaining a news magazine format. The editorial section dealt mainly with activities of student groups, such as the government and the administration. Though many minor mishaps occured, the Spotlite never failed to come out, and the staff, most of them at least, emerged unscathed. TOP LEFT: The Spotlite Staff: S. Toney, K. Barber, M. McDermott, D.

Spotlite 49 Loss Of Innocence Marks '75 Aurean Take four normal, sane people, stick them together in a cold basement with an impossible task and a limited amount of time to do it. Result: Four screaming maniacs and hopefully a yearbook. Under the guidance of Mother Aurean, advisor Joan Larson, the Aurean staff soon learned to express their journalistic talents by scribbling graffiti on Room 1's walls and writing P.A. announcements. Soda, Bun, Flame, and B.B. Bones spent their third hours Rung Fu fighting and dreaming about their new refrigerator. Visits from Bert and Mrs. Gopher proved to be refreshing interruptions in otherwise chaotic hours of work. Despite the lack of productivity at school, Soderberg's downstairs Aurean office provided many hours of work and work. Co-editors Patti Soderberg and Kari Anderson often even managed to stop screaming at each other long enough to hit the post office at 90th and Penn, usually in time to lock the doors behind them. Long hours of work were interrupted only by trips to local porno theaters to initiate next year's editors. With Armi's fatal words echoing in their ears, the twosome fought to miss all their deadlines (which they did successfully). Photography editor John Justad remained the only sane individual on the staff at the final deadline and tried to calm down panicky editors by reassuring them that tomorrow will come. Much to the surprise of the staff, and the advisor, tomorrow did come and with it the product of thousands of hours of blood, sweat, and tears — the 1975 Aurean. TOP LEFT: Bun Seder and B.B.

Coordinated by Mr. David Sher, the Richfield chapter offered opportunity for all students enrolled in D.E., and some not, to become aware of the business world around them. Through many competitional and social marketing oriented activities, the club continued it's tradition of extending practical education experience. This year, the organization's agenda included working on the S.T.E.M. project, bringing speakers into grade schools, laying out magazine ads, and doing window displays for Korner Plaza at Christman to raise money for travel. One rather interesting aspect of D.E.C.A.'s activities was that visiting nursing homes and childrens hospitals was still an important part of the years events. 52 DECA TOP LEFT: DEC A member gives friend a helpful hint.

DECA 53 54 V.I.C.A. The whole situation in the cooperative training program was much more personalized than in many of the other classes at RHS. This was no less true in the T I course. Basically, the program was made up of three sections; classroom, on-the- job and V.I.C.A. Along with the learning and mastering of a job, a student enrolled in this program could belong to the Vocational Clubs of America (V.I.C.A.). The entire organization was under the direction of Mr. Oliver Agerlie. The group elected their own officers to form a small government of six. But with only 34 students involved, it was an adequate size. Some of the clubs main activities were participating in the Minnesota V.I.C.A. Skill Olympics along with various other skill contests. This year, Molly McGinnis and Debbie Vounker ran for state offices. Together with the O.E. and D.E. departments, T I also hosted an employer employee banquet.

It was because of this that RHS presented the option of cooperative training programs. One such program was the two year office education plan, coordinated by Mr. Frank Jordon. During the junior year, the basic office skills were taught and drilled, while as a senior a student faced the challenge of actual on-the-job situations along with following a classroom agenda. But not everything was class and on-the-job training. A very strong part of O.E. was the Minnesota Office Education Association. M.O.E.A. was the youth organization and social end of Office Ed. Roller skating, bowling and parties were emphasized along with inter-club government. This year the group got out to aid in service projects such as Christmas caroling at nursing homes. They also competed in Regional and State Conventions. 1974-75 M.O.E.A. officers were: President, Debbie Nelson; Vice President, Ann Alfano; Secretary, Laurie Hoversten; Treasurer, Sondra Iverson; Parliamentarian, Karen Brown; Historian, Judy Ehr.

THE HIGH COST OF In the rip-off, money hungry world of today, the tuition free public school was one the only refuges, right? Wrong. Getting to school at RHS might have been free, but once a student stepped into its hallowed halls the pocketbook returned to the empty state. What could possibly cause this fast acting phenomenon?

Costs to Students 59 60 Checrleaders Fifteen Cheers For The Richfield Team! Donned in new cardinal red and white striped uniforms, the cheerleaders emerged on the 1974-5 sports season with unmatched enthusiasm and unending energy. Summer practices, and the experience of nine returning varsity cheerleaders helped shape each squad into unique groups. Each was headed by one of three captains; Beany Robert, Kathy Randall or Kim Ashland. Different as they were, however, all shared the goal of keeping the great school spirit alive at R.H.S. An additional six member B squad was added to involve more sophomore girls in cheerleading. As always the sophomores added a fresh quality to jV and sophomore games and pepfests. The years 74-75 were ones of great excitement for the Richfield cheerleaders. Winning teams and a trophy winning performance of their own at the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire clinic provided highlights that all would remember. Banquets, breakfasts and pot lucks were also unforgettable parts of the year. Much more than just making it to the games, cheerleaders were cookie bakers, locker decorators and chauffeurs while trying to keep up school grades and part time jobs. All in all, cheerleading served to add great experiences for each and every girl involved. What was a cheerleader? That girl dashing for the bus with pom poms in her hands and curlers in her hair; embarrassed but loving every minute of it.

JOB APPLICATION FOR THE RICHFIELD TAPAIRES NUMBER OF OPENINGS — 20 JOB DESCRIPTION — Performing and pom-poming at football, basketball, and hockey games, pep fests. Homecoming Queen coronation, talent show. Fire and Ice King coronation, dance clinics, and a statewide dance-line competition. HOURS — Two days a week all summer, three afternoons a week during the school year, plus extra practices which will be called when needed. (In other words, every possible afternoon when things got hectic . .. which is always!) REQUIREMENTS — A sense of rythm, legs (Preferably two), strong arms which will learn to love pom-pom routines, an unending smile, a desire for pain (achieved through a slow process of leg disintegration called shin splints ), medium to long hair preferred — will be pulled into a high ponytail whenever possible. WARDROBE — Maroon basketball jumper and football uniform, white turtleneck (guaranteed to turn pink after one wearing), opera hose (suspected of being made of thin fibers of steel), ballet and saddle shoes, an endless supply of red lip gloss, black shoe polish, and bobbypins. Looking at the above application form , what girl would ever have wanted to put herself through such grueling work to do a two-minute dance at a game which, many times, even lost out to the concessions stand. Obviously, there were 20 girls who would, and did endure all this just to be a Richfield tapaire; but why? Maybe there were some benefits of the job which couldn't be found on the above form . Things like, memories, friends, fun and laughter, a sense of satisfaction, and the special sense of closeness which developed between 20 girls who worked and sweated together for over five hours a week, just to make a two-minute dance look fantastic. Maybe it wasn't really so hard to understand. After all, the dances would all be forgotten sooner or later; but the friends would be remembered forever and ever.

Tapaires 63 Auxiliary Units Add Color, Class to Band Without auxiliary groups to the marching band, much could be lost along the lines of flash, style and color. For though the musicians carry the audio, ignited batons and spining flags provide a great deal of the visual. From the twice-performing Spartanettes of nineteen fifty-seven, to the present day RHS Flag Twirlers, it was conclusive that the organization had come a long way. Advised by Mr. Rounds, the group was in self-taught affiliation with the Spartan marching band. The director explained to President Beth Hengen, Vice-President Olga Tatarko and Secretary Lynne Schultz how a band drill would look, and they took it from there on their own. Nineteen seventy-four, seventy-five was an exceptional year for the group as they fielded seventeen. Practices were held in accordance with the athletic time of year, but generally they met at least three times a week. The organization trained ninth graders themselves each year to prepare them for spring tryouts. The twirlers element of originality laid in the fact that they were the only unit in the Lake Conference League who spinned short flags. When observing the marching band during a half time or parade performance, one might have noted that Richfield's baton twirlers added the touch of class needed so in general drill effect. But fez who looked on realized the immence preparation that had gone into mastering the skills of handling a baton. Liz Kohenson and Cheryl Jackson understand. 64 Auxiliary Units tough, for they were Richfield High School's two and only baton twirlers. Like the flag twirlers, they were a section of the band advised but not taught by Mr. Rounds. The pair worked on their own making up routines and fitting themselves into football halftime shows. Both girls were seniors, and both had taken baton lessons. Liz Hokenson carried her abilities out of school to competitions and teaching. In recent years, there seemed to be a growing interest in the field of baton twirling at the high school. The number trying out each year was on the rise. Richfield was unique in that only two baton 'majorettes' accompanied the band. Most other schools either carried one or many. LEFT TOP: Baton twirlers Liz Hokenson and Cheryl Jackson.

Auxiliary Units 65 Musical, Production Groups Provide Diverse Experiences If during the year students were walking through the halls before school and heard the music of Woodie Herman or Doc Severnson, it was none other than the RHS stagehand. The stagehand in reality was conducted by Mr. Mike Rounds, the new music teacher at RHS. The stagehand consisted of eighteen members. According to Mr. Rounds, the band would have been more of a success if there had been more time to organize it, and that with the few members there were, it was difficult to tie everyone's schedule together. However, next year better organization and a better band will be planned. The C.L. Directions group was originally formed at Richfield East Junior High in the 1973-74 year. This year, the group included about 50 sophomores and juniors that performed as a stagehand with singers and a danceline. C.L. Directions, which was named in honor of Mr. Carlton Lytle who organized and got the group started, was directed by Mr. Harold Strobel. For a young group they were successful as they performed regularly, including performances at the Homecoming Coronation, the football banquet and on the Mel Jass show. The stagecrew, along with the lighting crew, provided the audiences with a stage and a setting that could not have been made without cooperation. Even though the groups worked behind the scenes they were essential to their productions. The stage crew provided scenery and props while the lighting crew set the correct moods with the lights. Both crews were small but got the job done. Mr. Donovan Klausen, director of the stage crew, commented that this year's crew was the best he had ever worked with.

They accomplished this primarily through working with the athletic department in publicizing school sports events. Their hard work was displayed throughout the school in their creative signs and their locker messages to the players. They also sold and handed out programs at sports events. This year, one of the club's biggest projects was painting the stadium bleachers. The 40 members had a new advisor this year, Ms. Lois Bollman, who said that she really enjoyed her new activity. It was also possible for the club members to earn a letter for their work. They accumulated points for every activity they participated in and according to the total number of points compiled through the year, members recieved either a certificate, a pin or a letter.

Jesus Christ was the main reason eighty Richfield students participated in Young Life. Jim Edberg and fifteen other volunteers shared the importance of Jesus Christ with these students in a personal way. Each person was treated as an individual in a caring and loving way. Students were able to see Christianity in a new way. Through weekly Monday meetings, weekend ski trips, and summer trips to Colorado and Northern Minnesota RHS'ers had the chance to share and learn with others. Christianity became Itian Groups ifi alive for them. Student Life was the group that had a genuine love for people because of what Jesus Christ had done for them. Campus Crusade sponsored this group which was led by interested students. Each week fifty students got together for Bible studies that helped them grow closer to Christ and each other. In December about twenty people from Student Life attended a Christmas Conference in Kansas City, Oklahoma. LEFT: Brad Kallenberg LOWER LEFT: Bruce Christopher starts his day in the prayer room.

Valentine's Day Brings Out RHS Talent On Valentines Day, Richfield High held its second annual senior Talent Show. The fact that talent was by no means lacking at RHS was clearly shown by the number of acts that tried out for the show. But because of time limitations, the number of the two M.C.'s Tom Niemackl and Dave Tragethon, and soon the Varsity Men's Band performed Way Down Upon the Swanee River on their kazoos. Original compositions were sung by seniors Katie Rutherford and Howie Kelly. The Roaring Twenties were brought back by theTapaires in a tap dance to Thoroughly Modern Millie. The show added its own commercials as the singing raisins informed the audiences that plump, juicy raisins were the reason Raisin Bran was so good. It was back to the fifties for one of the highlights of the show, The Leader of the Pack. Sophomore Bill Stixrud thrilled audiences with his daring motorcycle stunts as junior girls played out his final scene. Switching back to the seventies, Pam Johnson and Gayle Guth performed a contemporary ballet dance which was followed by Steve Thompson playing on a somewhat uncommon instrument; the lute. Other novelty performances included the Zits and the Blackbirds. The finale of the talent show was the band Patent Leather which played such oldies as At the Hop, Peppermint Twist and California Girls, the latter one being accompanied by Richfield's own California girls.

Provides Experience for Future Business Men and Women junior Achievement is a program designed to orient high school students with the American business system and economy. Students learned by doing. Each group formed their company and elected officers. Junior Achievement was a success this year with approximately 80 Richfield students participating. Each participant spent 2 hours each week working on products or services that they would sell individually. A variety of products and services were produced ranging from candleholders to almond bark and an auditing service to a radio program. There were three trade fairs held during the year at Ridgedale, Brookdale, and Southdale. At the trade fairs, each company rented a space and sold their products. Many scholarships totalling $10, 000 were awarded to some 40 deserving achievers. At the end of the year, trophies were awarded to the Best Salesman, Speaker of the Year, Officers of the Year, and Young Business Man and Woman at the Futures Unlimited Banquet.

Traditional economic tools seemed to be unable to cope with the mounting recession and continual inflation at the same time. Public confidence in the ability of the government to deal with the economic situation was at an all time low. In October of 1974, President Gerald Ford refused to label the economic downturn a recession and urged a 5% surtax in additional taxes to fight inflation under the WIN program. But in 1975, the President completely reversed his position and began to fight the effects of the recession. Car sales were the lowest in years. Stockpiles of new cars mounted to over a 100 days. The drop in the GNP was the largest since World War II. Unemployment continued to rise while the stock market dropped. The energy crisis continued to drive the cost of fuel higher. Massive programs of public service employment attempted to provide the unemployed with jobs in all parts of the country. But the effects of the economic turmoil were not limited to the “outside world . RHS students felt the economic bite in all areas of their daily life. The rising price of sugar resulted in a 100% price increase in candy bars in the student lounge along with an increase in pop prices. Continually rising prices in the ala carte line drove many students to bag luncnes. I ne numoer of ous riders rose with gas prices as students could no longer afford to drive to school. The popularity of Levi's could be placed in part to their comparative cheapness although even they rose in price throughout the year. Friday and Saturday nights found more and more students staying at home for entertainment rather than paying for food, films and gas. The high cost of almost everything led many to find part time jobs only to battle the tight job market. But RHS'ers managed to sustain themselves through the year with no lack of fun, enjoyment and rowdiness as they survived the dark days of the 1974-75 recession.

The Peer Counseling program was designed to help students build a better understanding of themselves and others through training sessions focusing on building trust, caring for others, communication skills, and other related counseling skills. The members used what they have gained from these training sessions to help their friends who were having difficulties with friends, school, and self. 1974-1975 was the second school year the program was in existence. Peer Counselors work with their friends and others in and out of the school setting on a very informal basis. Not only did the counselors benefit from PEER, but the counselors themselves gain a great deal of insight and satisfaction. Next year Peer Counseling will be converted to a trimester course which will consist of the same basic concepts, skills, and good feelings. Showing PEER to be a positive program, one Peer Counselor said, It's the best thing that ever happened to me in all my high school years ' TOP LEFT: Group discussion in the student lounge over pop.

One hundred and ten teachers and administrators volunteered to serve as advisors to groups of up to 22 students. Certain school days were run on a shortened schedule to allow both advisor training sessions and group meetings. The purpose of the Advisor-Advisee program was to provide contacts for students, a problem in a large school. The advisors would lessen the load of the counselors, and the groups would give students a chance to meet people they wouldn't otherwise get to know. In addition, the groups would serve as a vehicle to get information out on matters such as scheduling. In the first sessions games were played to help the students get to know each other. This proved very helpful for sophomores and new students. A review was made of the Advisor-Advisee program, and one of the problems was thought to be the infrequency of meetings. However, most thought the idea was worthwhile, and a needed experience in a big school. Advisor-Advisee 79 80 Learning Learning 81 82 Language Arts Variety Is The Spice Of Language Arts The Registration Manual states a student may elect to enter either the elective program or the regular Language Arts program as it has traditionally been offered. According to the new head of the Language Arts Department, Mrs. Delores Zeimer, both programs were good for different reasons. The focus in Language Arts was on communication, which could be broken down into four main areas: speaking, reading, writing, and listening. Both programs met these goals, but in different ways. In the regular Language Arts program, the four main areas were combined and studied over the entire year. In the elective program, the activities were broken up into three trimester courses (literature, communications, writing) so that one area concentrated effort for a longer period of time. Many electives to choose from in all three of the areas let students work in areas that most interested them, ranging from Sports English to Film Expression. Enough electives were offered so that everyone was able to find three per year that interested them. If a student preferred, the traditional program was also available. As Mrs. Zeimer stated, The Language Arts department was trying to provide for a variety of ways in which people can learn. TOP LEFT: Dan Mohs.

Language Arts 83 New Films Highlight Social Studies Courses The Social Studies Program was based on first a required course, and then electives chosen by the students for the other trimesters. Sophomores had two classes in American History, and then chose from classes dealing with the Golden Twenties to the Red Power movement. Juniors had one trimester of World History, then chose from classes which included Modern China to Archaeology. Seniors had a trimester of Social Problems, followed by two trimesters of the American economy to civil liberties. The vast elective program was in its second year after being revised and rescheduled. Most reactions were favorable due to the ability of the students to choose their own classes. It was hoped that using this method, students would be in a class they had a high interest in. Well received additions to the Social Studies department were several popular films. Students saw films such as Becket, Tora Tora Tora, Exodus, and the Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman to supplement their various curriculums. Besides added insight to the studies, they served to break up the usual routine and make social studies a little more enjoyable.

The class was designed to teach students various techniques in foretelling what society will be like in the years to come. After the techniques were presented, the students were required to pick a topic concerning the future which interested them. An in-depth, independent study was then made on the topic with an oral, written or taped report on their findings. Since this class combined English and History skills, students were not required to take these two courses but credit was given. The reactions of the Futuristics students, although mixed, seemec to insure its success for another year; Futuristics is time consuming but I think I'm learning something important I'm lost, what do I do? Wow, I don't believe how much know I hope Mr. Bielke knows what he's doing Fo the Futuristics students of Mr. Bielke, the future was now.

Biology I, required for all sophomores, involved the study of life from cell biology to ecology. In addition, it was hoped that the students would gain experience in the problemsolving method and develop the habit of using common sense to solve problems, and then apply this knowledge to other areas and life in general. The elective chemistry and physics programs were divided into three levels; general, for students with an interest in science, but not planning a science- related career; study or project, for college-bound students with a math background; and advanced or PSSC, for students planning or pursuing a career in a science-related field. An advanced study of biology investigated the various organizational levels of life. The elective program in science was well-received; the reasons for taking the classes were quite different: I had an empty spot in my schedule . I'm interested in the field of science ... I like math, or I used to like it ... I love test tubes ... I haven't figured out why I took it yet ... It would expand my knowledge and be of help in college ... I wanted to find out how to make a laxative .. I need it and like it ... Its necessary to become a good pyromaniac. Likewise, what the students gained from their experiences varied: I had a 'rewarding experience' ... I got alot of hard work .. I learned the scientific approach ... I got an easy grade I got experience for college ... I learned what makes me move ... I learned how to keep water spots from forming on test tubes ... I got interested in other sciences ... I got a D- ... I learned alot and remembered it ... In biology, I learned all about sex. TOP LEFT: Sophomore biology students study in the lecture room.

Las clases avanzadas como el tercero, cuarto y quinto ahos de espanol consistieron en la gramatica, charlas. mucho estudio intensivo de la historia y la cultura mexicanas, pero todas hicieron muchas otras cosas tambien. En el segunda trimestre la mayor parte del tiempo consistia en el estudio de la Navidad en Mexico, Espaha y otros parses donde se habla espanol. Cantando con el Senor Brett y su ukelele, la Sehorila Edberg y el Senor Saxton, todos los espanoles cantaron villancicos en los corredores de la escuala. En el ultimo trimestre hubo mucho trabajo.

Foreign Languages 91 Math: Now More Than Ever According to Mr. Miller, head of the Richfield math department, accelerated changes in our society were largely responsible for increased math requirements. He felt that due to the great expansion of knowledge that occured during the past three decades, an understanding of elementary statistical theory was a necessity to anyone attempting to keep up with the development in a particular area. In addition, he saw the use of the computer as a tool of the masses becoming a rapidly approaching reality. He also commented that, It can be argued that one need not have a math background to make a place for himself in life. However, this same argument can be used to show that a person can survive winters in Minnesota without a heated dwelling, but ... who wants that type of life? 92 Math Apparently Richfield students heeded Mr. Miller's words as math classes were easily illed. However, their reasons for taking the rourses varied greatly: I would like to jecome a computer programmer ... I discovered I needed math to go into home :c; how hard is it to half one cup? ... to prepare for college ... I've always been $ood at math, I like working with numbers there are more guys in math than there ?re in home ec .. I get a feeling of .atisfaction from solving hard problems hey told me that everything in society is based on math — I'm still waiting to see the connection I feel less guilty failing a harder class ... I want to become a teacher and math is my best subject .1 wanted to learn how to write Merry Christmas on the computer tapes... It's a good overall class.

Richfield's Business Education Department was a larger and broader department than that found in many of the other Lake Conference schools. In order to best meet the needs of the students, the curriculum for business education was set up to provide students with personal-use skills, to prepare students with marketable or vocational skills, and to provide students with fundamental information about the contemporary business world and our economic system. A new course offering this year, business communications, taught the students how to compose business letters and how to use these skills to write a report. One of the student's needs, as seen by the business department, was a separate room of typewriters for the student's personal use throughout the day as they felt it would greatly benefit the students in future years.

Although mar courses were not mixed, the option was open t  participate in an elective co-educational clas . Reactions to the change varied as some studen i enjoyed the open spirit of competition, while others questioned the practicality of mixed classes. Bi.t despite some objections, mixed phy ed classes appeared to be here to stay. % Physteal Education Following last years switch to the mester system, the phy ed 'partment again offered a wide iriety of specialized elective urses. An increase in physical lucation classes occurred, as udents found time to fit a trimester f exercise and fun into their schedule. Hopefull , the renewed interest in athletics served to keep RHS students healthier, happier and, with co-educational classes, in tune with the society's turn toward equality between the sexes.

In previous years, the program was able to accomodate only 50 to 60 sophomores. The program during the school day consisted of six weeks of classroom training, two weeks of simulator classes and two weeks of independent study, enabling the students to choose from such subjects as motor-cycle education and driving tactics. The nine hours of behind-the- wheel training were scheduled for after school times. The reaction of most upperclassmen was, Why didn't they have that when I was a sophomore? For the first time at Richfield, all Health classes were coeducational. At first the members of the classes were inhibited when discussing personal subjects, but soon the discussions became spirited. Everyone agreed that the new arrangement made the classroom discussion more meaningful. The Health curriculum also underwent some changes. The mental health unit was increased, and some aspects of interpersonal communications were explored. In addition, the students were able to pursue their interests in many independent projects and study units. UPPER LEFT: Mr. Lewis points out driving maneuvers on the screen.

Health Driver's Educalion 99 Industrial Arts Combines Practicality With Fun Industrial Arts was a study of industry: it processes, techniques, materials and people. But in addition to all that, Industrial Arts offered classes that were fun to take at Richfield. Unlike many classes. Industrial Arts combined practical techniques with challenging skills, the end result being some sort of tangible product. Students at RHS discovered that having skills and being able to create a product with their own hands was really a self satisfying ability. A variety of practical skills, such as home wiring, the drawing of house and small building plans, working with hand tools and cabinet making were offered to students in various classes. An advantage of Industrial Arts classes was their individualization. For example, in the woods classes, students could draw up plans for and make a project of their choice, without being forced into making something they didn't want or need. Many safety techniques were also stressed, since carelessness in the Industrial Arts area could have been serious. Following recent trends in other formerly male classes, the number of girls taking Industrial Arts classes increased constantly. With more and more girls taking Industrial Arts classes, the day of the helpless female seemed to be on the way out. LEFT: A student practices what he learned about welding.

Home Ec Equips Students For Everyday Living The Home Economics Department at Richfield made concentration in psychology classes extremely difficult; after all how could students be expected to keep their minds on Freud when the aroma of freshly baked bread, cookies, steaks, and cakes filled the air. During 74-75 many guys realized the value of home ec. and the female dominated classes were replaced by co-ed ones. More and more boys enrolled in home economics courses and learned many useful skills. Various foods classes featured Hors d'Oeuvres parties and two course dinners with guests included for the meal. Practical low calorie and low cholesterol foods were prepared and taste-tested and kitchen management skills were learned to help the “behind the scene part of meal preparation go smoothly. Bachelor-Know-How, again popular with RHS boys, familiarized them with such skills as pants pressing, simple mending, and hair grooming. The consumer's viewpoint was always stressed in all the home ec. courses. Useful skills such as how to cut up meats to get different things from the same cut are taught. Child Development studied why kids behave the way they do. Consequently, the very short kids that were sometimes seen walking through the halls weren't undersized sophomores, but 4 and 5 year olds who were taking part in a nursery where their actions were watched by students. The RHS Home Ec. Department also included a super sewing department where talented students made professional looking coats and jackets. Overall, life skills were taught in all Home Ec. classes: Skills which everyone has to use at one time or another and which help to uncomplicate life. After all, who's life doesn't need uncomplicating! TOP LEFT: A home ec room usually has a look of casual disorder about it during class. BOTTOM LEFT: Nancy Rose does hand work on her sewing project.

As department head Mr Houts phrased it, those who did go on generally did sc because of positive instruction received, a desire for sell discovery, and the hope to develop further their art abilities. Richfield had the highest rated art department in Minnesota. Quite a number of past graduates earned their livelihood using the skills they polished while attending R.H.S. The practical side of art was that it dealt with the realities of living. The philosophic outlook was in observing those who discovered methods of communicating their feelings through creative composition.

The course itself involved the requirement of regular class attendance. But along with that, opportunity was open for a student to participate in the musical portion of the school spring play, the choir pop concert, the Richfield orchestra festival, and other such musical events. Richfield's orchestra operated in direct affiliation with the band department so that percussion and brass were interchanged when need arose. Some stringed instrument players from orchestra were members of the band, and in some cases band members joined the orchestra to complete special arrangements.

Orchestra 107 New Director Emphasizes Student Involvement Mr. Miles Lundahl, former RHS band director, became choir director this year. He emphasized student involvement in every area, such as directing, managing and concert planning. Joint choir programs were held, with the music performed ranging from GODSPELL to OKLAHOMA! The choirs were involved in a Lake Conference performance of Elijah, held in the spring. The three different choirs offered different opportunities to the students involved. Chorus — All first year choir students participated in the chorus, primarily a training choir. An all girl choir, performed outside of school such as at a Christmas program, besides the regular school and Lake Conference concerts. Concert Choir — Eleventh and twelfth grade experienced selected voices sang in a mixed choir. It participated in many school functions and represented Richfield in many concerts and festivals outside of school. Madrigal Singers — An exceptionally talented group of mixed singers numbering around twenty gave performances at Southdale, churches, banks and a doctor's convention. They performed for the Minnesota State Legislature in January, where at the reception a male member spilled milk on Governor Wendell Anderson. This group required much outside time for rehearsals and programs. TOP LEFT: Rob Hugi looks over music. BOTTOM LEFT: Karen Franzmeicr plays piano for Sondra Iverson.

It rolled, that is, until the school year of 1974-75 when it was awakened to the new style of a new director — Mr. Mike Rounds. At first many students rejected the concepts of the new band but the end product was superior program for musical education at RHS. Aside from the change in directors, the two large Junior-Senior and Sophomore bands were split into four smaller bands. Ability instead of grade became the facet in determining placement. Consequently, band became more competitive with the selective nature of the higher bands. Also initiated was the co-curricular system in which band members were not required to play at games as a part of their grade. Some facets of band, however, remained constant. The band room was still an escape for the serious musician and a refuge for a busy director with lots to do. O Band T .IP LEFT: The band performs at a basketball game.

Band 111 Special Education Gives Students Individualized Help The Special Education department at Richfield High School offered a number of classes where individualized instruction was given in consumer math and individualized typing as well as the required English and social studies. Most of the sophomore participants follow the regular school day program except for one period of work experience in one or more areas of the school. Juniors and Seniors chose from several options along with their classroom w'ork. They could be involved in a work evaluation program part-time where they tried many different kinds of work to see where their interests were. Another alternative was a Vocational School experience in an area of their choice as well as a work-study program involving four hours of classroom academics in school and credit given for supervised work out of school. Richfield High also had four part-time resource teachers who worked with students who needed individualized help. The resource program covered two main area, remedial and enrichment. Basic skills were stressed in the remedial areas while the enrichment program covered relevant and current issues and problems students encountered outside of school. The Special Education Department used many audio-visual aids such as film strips, loops, and tapes, and stressed involvement in discussion groups. As in most of the other departments in the school. The Special Education Department was individualized because it served a variety of students with different needs and interests. TOP LEFT: Typing instruction keeps students busy practicing.

The program was offered to students in all grades with 35 being placed in it after final selection. The students in this program were required to spend four hours in school per day with a minimum of twenty hours spent on the job each week. To determine grades, the employers and Mr. Gilbert worked together to decide how much effort and energy was put into the program by the individual student. The grades were based on the regular A,B,C,D scale. The Work Experience Program was not just for students uninterested in school, but also for those who needed financial assistance or desired on-the-job training before graduation. 114 Work Experience 1 OP LEFT: McDonalds employs many RHS students.

These eleventh and twelfth graders chose between 22 different vocational or technical course offerings ranging from Floriculture to Welding and Metal Fabrication. They received three credits each tri-mester for successful involvement in the vocational experience. The Hennepin County Vo-Tech schools were rated at the top in the nation. They offered a unique experience in many fields which could not be accomplished in the high school setting. Many students continued after high school graduation to over 70 fields of study at Vo-Tech. RHS students found a way to fit their interests into a field and gained experience in it while still in high school. They hoped to get a head start on their future. 116 Vocational Technical School )P LEFT: Ken linderholm and Jim Fitzenburger participate in a mechanics class. )TTOM LEFT: Todd McDonald works in shop.

With such a growing sport, the Richfield Spartan soccer team had an excellent season with a record of ten wins, four losses and one tie. In region five playoffs the team had a good start with victories over Minnehaha Academy and Benilde, but were defeated by eventual State Champion Lincoln 2-1. Tom Scudder scored the lone Spartan goal in the game. The All-Conference players were honored at the soccer banquet on November 12. They were Chuck Waltz, Bill Garner and Larry Mollan, while Mike Kennedy received an honorable mention. Most Valuable Player was Bill Garner and Most Improved was awarded to Chuck (Brillo) Waltz. One of the most sought after awards was given to Dave Jarzyna for being the Least Valuable Player. TOP LEFT: Tin Goalen passe the ball past opposing player.

Soccer 121 Donuts Keep The Goals Coming Practice for the Spartan Soccer team began early in the summer months in the Summer Soccer program leagues designed for grade school, junior high and high school levels. Two games a week, along with practice, filled the players summer months. Approximately two months of the Summer Soccer practice gave members an increased adeptness in handling the ball. Between exercises the players would rest while juggling the ball with their feet, thighs and heads. Practice paid off as could be seen in the Cooper game. The Hawks and the Spartans had been trying to break the 1-1 tie when, with approximately five minutes left in the fourth quarter, Richfield scored two goals within one minute and won with a 3-1 score. Such play was encouraged by the award of a donut for any individual who scored or played exceptionally well. A turnabout of the custom occured when the coaches were awarded with giant donuts at the annual banquet, putting a finishing touch to an excellent soccer season. 122 Soccer TOP LEFT: Bill Garner takes the ball from an opponent.

Soccer 123 Big Red Reigns Again As Red Division Champs The opening football game on August 30 turned out to be more shocking than disappointing. It had been a tradition to have the Spartans win their opening game, but this year St. Louis Park upset Richfield, 24-8. However, this uncommon occurance was immediately reversed as shown by the Spartans Conference record of nine wins and one loss. The Spartans displayed a stingy defense led by tri-captains Dale Heebl, Bruce Kottom and Doug Nelson, giving up an average of only six points per game. Reversing columnist Bruce Brother's predictions, the team grew stronger as they defeated front runners Edina West and Kennedy. In the Lake Conference Championship play-off, the mighty Spartans were matched against an explosive Jefferson team. Although Richfield outplayed the Jaguars for the majority of the game they could score only seven points, maintaining a one point lead. With only a few minutes left in the last quarter, the Jaguars completed several quick passes to go in for a score. As good a team as Richfield had to have good individual players. This was definately the case as Dale Heebl, Mike Roach, Todd Johnson, Doug Nelson, Bruce Kottom and Dan Bane were all voted as Lake Conference players. Linebacker Doug Nelson wound up an especially good season by being elected to the All-State Team. UPPER LEFT: Halfback Neal Kurjeski runs past an opponent's grasp.

Football 125 Winning Spartans Provide Excitement For Fans One of the most exciting games of the season was against the Knnedy Eagles when Richfield won in the last minute of play to clinch the Lake Conference Red Division Championship. With only a few minutes remaining the Spartans got the ball and the Spartan fans exploded. Throughout the drive down the field, the crowd chanted CO BIG RED . This seemed to be the boost that the team needed. Quarterback Joe Smith let loose a long bomb to receiver Rod Bloom to set up the touchdown. The fired up squad then dumped a Kennedy player in the endzone for a safety and two points, before the game was over.

While others were just dragging to school, the hearty Spartans had already run out to Lake Harriet and back, rain or shine. Then, if that wasn't enough, they were off again in the afternoon running intervals or long distances to build the stamina and endurance needed to compete in their grueling sport. Fortunately, the Spartan's toil was frequently lightened by the antics of teammates. For example, Captain Paul Case happened to take a wrong turn during a race. Remedy: Teammates provided him with a compass at the annual banquet. The result of the Spartan's hard work seemed hidden in their conference season but appeared in the district meet. Ending the season with an unimpressive record of 1-12, Coach James Grimmer commented, It's not what you do in the season that counts, it's what you do in the districts. The Spartans proved this by placing 19th out of 24 schools in the district meet. TOP LEFT: Captain Paul Case paces himself while preparing to pass an opponent.

Cross Country 129 Spartans Shine in Victory Over Top Seeded Edina-West The 1974 season of the volleyball team was marked by frustration in an up-and-down season that led them to a disappointing 3-9 season record. Although the year began promisingly for the squad coached by Ms. Judy Mom Winiecki with vast skill improvement by many players, troubles soon set in with the two week loss of the two starting setters, co-captain Patti Soderberg and Jean Grant, due to injuries and personal conflicts. However, the team held, and by midseason the team had been taped back together. The Spartans played several good games, only to lose due to frustrating mistakes. The team finally pulled together for their first win of the season against Edina-East, before finishing out their regular season with a 2-8 record. As in many sports. District competition meant a fresh start and the Spartans eagerly prepared for their match against top seeded (in the district) Edina-West. The team played brilliantly as they won over previously unbeaten Edina in a 2-1 match that featured a skillful use of the Spartan's 6-2 three hitter offense. However, frustration again hit as Richfield was defeated by eventual State Champion Runner-Up Kennedy in the second round of District action. Despite trials during the year, the Spartan's season ended on a good note. At the banquet, Patti Soderberg was Most Valuable, and Karen Hermansen Most Improved, with Katie Coenen receiving the Super Soph award. Recognition was also given to the B squad and JV teams coached byassistant Nancy Gladsen. Both squads played well throughout the season, holding much promise for future RHS teams.

They seemed to be missing some courts; the convenient Augsburg tennis courts were still under construction. Consequently, everyday the whole team would jump into one of the school's station wagons and drive to two seperate courts on the west side of Richfield. Then, tennis coach Ms. Vel Teichroew traveled between the two courts giving instructions and uniting the team. Despite the inconvenience, the result was an impressive record of 6 wins and 2 losses, with some outstanding individual accomplishments. Captain Chris Andresen, became the first girl tennis player to earn three letters. Leslie Larm, first singles player was voted most valuable after an excellent conference season. Lynetta Kelly, a skillful sophomore with two more years to go, recieved the most improved player award. In districts, singles players were Chris Andresen and Leslie Larm. Leslie placed second, which qualified her to go on to the regional championship. In doubles competition the team of Cathy Sirany and Mary Olinger placed fifth, beating Robbinsdale with set scores of six-two, six-three. However, all three girls had disappointing regional matches. Leslie defaulted in the second round against Lindbergh when she fell and sprained her arm during the second set. Mary and Cathy also lost in the second in a tough game against St. Cloud, losing a chance to go onto the first Girl's State Tennis Tournament. However, with a young squad, the future of the tennis team looks good for several years to come. TOP LEFT: First Doubles player Mary Olinger concentrates on her serve.

Two of the wost memorable games were the Edina-East and the ■dina-West games — when the Spartans upset the •astern rival Hornets 5-3. As junior wing Tom •zepanski put it, The crowd really wanted us to •fin. Surely it seemed as though the Richfield hucksters were really fired up for that game, if, for fio other reason than previously losing to Edina-West P-1.

A shut out and three periods of good plays ' exclaimed goalie Pasckiewicz, Even the coaches agreed. On the other hand, We were too confident about winning the game against Eisenhower, said the other goalie, junior Geof Haraway. The two Spartan goalies, juniors Steve Pasckiewicz and Geof Haraway were considered to be two of the best goalies in the Lake Conference. The two goaltenders were almost equal in abilities according to their teamates and coaches. Both of them fought the never ending battle of keeping the puck from crossing a small red line, a line which meant the difference between a shut out or a hard practice the next day. 136 Hockey We couldn't have any two captains that would be better. said junior defensman, Scott Swanson, of the Spartans' senior captain Brad Perlick, and junior captain Steve Christoff. Said Perlich, Christoff is a good captain, I like working with him. Next year he'll do just fine. Brad's a good leader, Christoff commented. Coaches Larry Hendrickson and Jake McCoy were very proud of the 1974-75 team. These coaches tried to make the pucksters go all out in their efforts, and play up to their potential. Most of the team members definatly agreed that, We definitly have the potential to play better. Perlich said about the coaches, I think Hendrickson and McCoy are really good coaches, they know what they're doing. Christoff added, I've learned alot from them. Next year, all but two of the Spartans will be back and looking forward to another fine season. LEFT: Crowded Spartan bench concebtrates on game. TOP LEFT: Steve Christoff fights for puck.

Cross Country found their training a little longer than expected — no snow would come! When it finally came, the girls got off to a good start, or rather most of the racers did. At the second meet of the season Lynn Jennings, Jaimie Bennett, Vicki Kaminski, and Lori Matte managed to take a wrong turn on the race course at Hyland Lake. They figured out they were going in the wrong direction when they ran into the boys racing on the other course. Motivated by Lynetta Kelly's popcorn and Captain Chris Andresen's mint brownies, the team finished the season with a fantastic 9-1 record. The skiers lost their coach, Ms. Val Teichroew who was hospitalized a few days before districts. The skiers made a fair showing in districts placing fourth with Cathy Sirany placing third, Carol Agerlie twelfth, Chris Andre-sen sixteenth, Mary Kampa 34th and Linda Conrad 37th. In regions, under their substitute coach Judy Winiecki, the team excelled with Cathy Sirany taking fourth and Carol Agerlie sixth, placing them second only to Edina-West. The Slalom team was able to begin skiing earlier on the man-made snow at Buck Hill with the boys team. Coached by Head Coach Harold Ahlbom and Dad Tadsen, the team skied to a quadrangular Lake Conference Championship with Eisenhower, Edina-East and Edina-West. The team also placed fairly well with a third place in districts. Co-captains Patti Soderberg and Diane Seeler finished third and ninth respectively, with Kim Ritter eighth and Kathy Kalkis 19th. The slalom team's season culminated likewise in the regions with Patti Soderberg placing third, Kim Ritter sixth and Diane Seeler, after losing a ski two gates from the finish, 12th, in a field of 90 girls. This gave the skiers the Slalom trophy and the overall Region trophy with Cross Country.

Fairing well through the Lake Conference season, the teams headed into regions. There, though backed by few fans, they captured the Overall trophy. After skiing the many gates with the girls at Buck Hill, the slalom team pulled it all together to take first in the Region A slalom competition. Captain Dave Amos placed third while Jeff Boser placed fifth. Other high finishers were Greg Boser in eighth. Enduring the three mile course at Theodore Wirth, the cross country skied to a fourth place finish. Placing well for the team were Karl Ermisch and Gene Bruesehoff. Boy's Skiing Region Champ, Fifth in State 140 Skiing-Boys However, Richfield's strongest event lay in the umpers. The Spartan Flyers came off the jump strong aking fourth and fifth places and the trophy. Because of this overall victory, Richfield was allowed to send heir top three skiers in each event to the State Meet at Cloquet. The boys slalom team had a rough day at Cloquet having only one finisher, Jeff Boser, taking 24th. Jumping had an excellent day with Larry Mollan placing 16th. Bob Best placed 21st and Paul Erickson placed 26th. Cross Country held their own with Karl Ermesh and Gene Brusehoff placing 25th and 27th.

Skiing-Boys 141 Excellence, Pride Carry Gymnasts To State The 1975 girl's gymnastics team continued their winning streak through the 74-75 season, staying undefeated in more than 25 meets. Under the direction of coaches Bonnie Benson, Donna Lunde, and Nancy Gladsen, the girls proved to spectators why they were rated as one of the top teams in the state. Sparkling performances were given by Julie Johnson, who scored a 8.6 on the floor, Katie Coenen on the unevens, Jan Aslakson on the beam, and Paula Kursu on vaulting. The team also scored a record breaking 94.20 points: the highest any Lake Conference team scored in competition. Led by co-captains Julie Johnson and Julie Savoie, the team consisted mainly of underclassmen, but there was a great deal of teamwork and team unity in this individual sport. Although plagued by ripped hands, shin splints, bruised hips and a number of other injuries, the team always managed to pull through with a victory. A lot of time and hard work was put into making a winning team, and the RHS girls gymnastics team was a winning team in all ways. This year the team looked forward to competing in the first girl's State Gymnastic Meet held in March. TOP LEFT: Paula Kursu executes a difficult handstand vault.

Though they were a young team, they were dedicated, always learning new tricks and attempting to achieve higher goals. Leading the Spartans for the season were Ed Corazalla with a high score of 7.9 for floor exercise, Mark Erickson with a 7.15 on the parallel bars, and Dave Stevenson with a 7.15 on the rings. The team's strong points were their floor, tramp, high bar and parallel bar routines, while a continuous improvement was shown on the horse at every meet. The gymnasts improved steadily from the beginning of the season. An average team usually would have improved their total score by five to ten points, while the Spartans improved a phenomenal 40 points from their first score of 77.00. This occurred when Richfield defeated Kennedy in boy's gymnastics for the first time in its history while also totalling the highest score in RHS history, 118.88. Perhaps the team's improvement could best be accredited to cocaptain Stephen Thompson's feelings, We're more of a team this year. The team will be looking forward toward an even better season next year with most of their performers returning. TOP LEFT: Jon Axelson performs on the side horse.

Gymnastics — Boys 145 Spartan Wrestlers Show Both Individual And Team Strength The Richfield wrestlers began their season this year with two powerful victories against Roosevelt and Edina-East. The wrestlers showed the weight of a more experienced team than last year. They were led by tricaptains Mike Edberg, Kim Wohlford and George Williams. A sense of dedication and team spirit prevailed as they faced some of the state's toughest foes. New spark was added to the coaching staff with former NCAA Champion Bill Demaray. Much of the wrestler's success this year, however, was attributed to the fine coaching of Lloyd Grandprey and Ken Hess. 146 WreMling With many returning lettermen this year, a fine showing of 11-6 was no surprise. The wrestlers were also the first place winners in the White Bear tournament and Spartan Invitational. Qualifying for regionals this year were George Williams, Greg Gerdes and Bob Anderson. George Williams attained the District 18 Championship at the 112 pound weight class. The only unfortunate note of the season was that none of these wrestlers were able to qualify for the State Meet.

Wrestling 147 Injuries Hamper Young Spartan Cagers Injuries plagued the Mighty Spartan Basketball team this season, but nevertheless they gave the fans alot to cheer about. After a heartbreaking loss to Southwest in the opening game of the season, Richfield went on to win four straight, including a thrilling 58-55 victory over Tonka. Christmas vacation gave Richfield a chance to match its strengths against the Rochester teams. The Spartans were victorious against both Rochester John-Marshall (66-58) and Rochester Mayo (52-49). After a conference loss to Kennedy (50-44), the cagers dominated Eau Claire, a visiting Wisconsin team, and winning 75-49. Moundsview was the Spartan's next rival, but they were victorious over the cagers by a score of 54-49. After Moundsview, Eisenhower came to Richfield and was defeated by 10 points. The team then traveled to Bloomington Lincoln and was defeated 57-54. Next, in perhaps the most exciting game of the season, Edina-West came to battle our mighty Spartans. The score was tied with only seconds remaining, when junior forward Joe Smith sank a 20-foot field goal to give the Spartans a 55-53 win. TOP LEFT: Spartans get warmed up for the game.

Hoffarber, however, suffered a knee injury that caused him to miss numerous games while Kottom was out six games with a virus. To add to Spartan troubles, John Stromen, a junior guard who had earned himself a starting position early in the season, injured his knee almost the entire season. Encouraging efforts by seniors Jim Peterson and Mike Bender plus underclassmen Mike Voelker, Joe Smith, Pete Kottom, and Paul Haugen enabled the Spartans to play an aggresive style of basketball throughout the season.

Basketball —Boys 15T First Year Cagers Take Conference Title First year coach Val Strachan began the first season of interscholastic basketball for girls with a strong starting line of experienced seniors and sophomores that looked as if they could take the conference; she ended up with a short, inexperienced and young team that did just that. In between, the team attained a 7-1 conference record that led them to the first Lake Conference girl's basketball crown. After soundly defeating their first three foes, the team began to feel their first losses to injuries as they pulled out small margin victories that left their small but dedicated fans exhausted, but happy. With the midseason loss of senior center LeAnn Saunders and wing Barb Zilka, the team was forced to rebuild quickly. Junior Cindy Hillger came off the bench to fill the center position with the determination that earned her the Most Improved Player Award. Sophomores Mary Kuzniar and Julie Helmberger traded off at the wing position, with both contributing strong offensive and defensive play. Under the floor leadership of the Most Valuable Player, sophomore guard Mary Olinger, the team gelled quickly. Averaging over 14 points per game, Toots Olinger sparked the team to victories all over all six conference teams. Olinger, along with sophomore guard Sherry Case and senior captain Kari Anderson, the top rebounder and second leading scorer, provided the steady performances that led the team to a one point victory over a huge Jefferson Jaguar team in a game that clinched the conference title. District competition saw the Spartans trounce Eisenhower before losing to eventual state finalist Holy Angels. But the results of 5:30 practices, crunchies and a lot of pride could best be seen by the team's overall 9-3 record, and the determination that led them past overwhelming obstacles to acheive it.

Activities ranged from flag football to ice hockey to softball as hundreds of boys and girls enjoyed playing in a competitive yet friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The intramural program, while staying basically the same expanded under the leadership of Cameron Hedstrom, the new intramural director. He planned all events concerning the intramural program, including such things as collecting entry forms, scheduling teams, distributing the proper equipment and making sure each game has a competent referee. Mr. Hedstrom attended the University of Minnesota during the morning and then began his day at Richfield at 1:30 to attend to what he said, was one of the most enjoyable jobs he could imagine.

The team is ahead 103-26, the restless fans begin their chant, We want Buffalos, we want Buffalos . The gym pulsates with the sound, growing more demanding until finally a wild cheer arises as the coach seeking relief sends in . THE BUFFALOS. The crowd screaming with delight, yells encouragement to the Buffalos, warm off the bench, as they dribble, bump, tackle, and win their way to buffalodom. Feeling unsure without the security of a solid bench beneath them, the buffalos supply the fans with the best moments in sports. The fans holding their sides, are behind the buffalos through all their traumas The setter puts a beautiful set up to the net, the spiker makes a good take-off and arches back to ram the ball down the opponents throats, but somehow misses the ball, gets stuck in the net, and hit in the head with the ball The linebacker sees the play shifting his way and with speed, dexterity and coordinatin dodges the powerful defense to make a supurb flying tackle — of his own teammate ... The ball is tipped, the opposing team grabs it, so the team sets up its defense; somewhere in the scramble our forward emerges with the ball and drives down to sink a flawless layout — in our own basket The runner begins their kick after a hard grueling race, coming from behind to finish several meters ahead of their nearest competition — only to discover they had lost track of the laps and finished one too soon. The incidents are numerous and the benching continuous, but without the Buffalos RHS teams couldn't be what they were, for it was their competition for the starter's piaces which kept Spartan teams working to achieve their very best possible. TOP LEFT: The soccer bench finds the action on the field (without them) engrossing. BOTTOM LEFT: Buffalos give their all in cross country skiing — even though their time doesn’t count. TOP CENTER: With the multitude of injuries suffered by RHS varsity teams, buffalos often turned into starters. BOTTOM CENTER: Coach Stu Slarner calls a time out, while buffalos hope they will be called upon. TOP RIGHT: The separation between buffalos and starters is clear on the football field. 80TT0M RIGHT: Buffalos have to practice as hard as the starters.

(Short for FANATIC) If other schools remembered anything else about Richfield, it was usually the mass of enthusiastic fans backing up their superb teams that stood out in their minds. From the three loyal fans in the near empty bleachers to the crowded stands, Spartans felt the fierce pride within them. Yelling their teams through the tough moments, exhalting in a victory and sorrowing in defeat, were ail part of the fan's emotions. Crying We're Number One! until they no longer could, and then finding enough voice leftover somewhere to sing the school song were common experiences to hundreds of Richfield students. Even RHS fans, along with Spartan teams, held Lake Conference Laurels; they never lost a We've got spirit, yes we do, we've got spirit, how 'bout you? contest to any school.

Admin«tration 239 Supportive Services Lend Behind The Scenes Aid There is a lot of behind the scenes work that goes into the smooth operation of the school that few students stop to appreciate. For example, consider the women who get to school early to prepare the lunches of the day; the ladies who work amidst the din of hungry students in the Ala Carte lines; the newly uniformed men who sweep the halls and classrooms and get things set up for different school oriented activities; the bus drivers who rise early to provide transportation for students; the nurse who helps cure your aches and pains; the office staff who is constantly pestered by students; the attendance women who are kept busy filling out attendance slips; Mrs. Fuselier who takes care of money matters; and the librarians in the learning centers who help students with their unending projects. So the next time you take a bus to school, or call a custodian to fix your broken locker, or have to get out of school for a dentist appointment, or buy a ticket for a football game, or use the resource material in the library, remember that these people play a very important role in our school.

English Musical Cooperation Superb performances such as Richfield presents annually begin with great hopes and dreams and are completed with most of these ambitions coming true. The two men responsible for establishing the audio format for R.H.S s spring musical are dedicated individuals who undertake an amazing task each year. Mr. Marcel, the overall director, has been called the head coach' of the play. He has always been interested in the arts, so he assumes it natural that he be part of the musical. He finds that the four men working with the different functions of the play necessary to make it successful, work well together and with the students. All in all, it makes for good morale and excellent accomplishment. Traditionally, Mr. Marcel's wife makes him a jacket to fit the theme of every play he has been involved with. Aiding Mr. Marcel in audio effects is Mr. Gagnon the orchestration director. At times it has been neccesary for him to rearrange the music since most music is arranged for a Broadway Orchestra and must be simplified. However, his most important duty occurs when the play is before an audience. He sets the pace of the play itself. Both men agree that they enjoy the production and are aware and concerned of the young emotion, excitement, and fulfillment all rolled into one that is the spring musical. Carlson, J.

Psychology Haugen, R. Industrial Arts Henrikson, |. English Unsung Heroes Picture a glittering and exciting R.H.S. Spring Musical opening night. Then visualize the preparation for that evening. A great deal of the effect vibration reaching an audience is through visual media. And no more important visual aids are present during a performance than those the stage crew has built, and the lighting crew makes visable. Mr. Covart is the advisor to the stage crew. He was rather drafted into the position. But for some reason, he is back each year guiding the building of sets. He fully realizes that the crowd's applause belongs to his unsung workers as well as any other group involved in the play. With this in mind, he manages to instill the idea of self recognition into the students he directs. The vocal director and man in charge of lighting is Mr. DeFreese. He was drawn into helping out with the play and stays with it because he likes working with kids. As with Mr. Covart, he too sees an entirely different relationship existing between teachers and students. The gentlemen's reasons for joining the play, differ as do they, but they appear to stay with it mainly for the accomplishments they feel when working with youth. The emotions of opening night, and the tears shed when its finished concern the directors, for they know much more is at stake than simply getting a job done. So they work, they care, they give many hours, and, as Mr. Covart said, they do it for the love of the students. Faculty 245 Ms. McGillivary Makes As Well As Teaches History Ms. Eloyce McGillivary spends her day teaching eleventh-graders about World History. But after school she is kept busy as the chairman of the Richfield Education Association's negotiation Council. They meet with representatives of the Richfield school board to try to come to a common agreement on the terms and conditions of the employment of Richfield teachers. She helps in the negotiations of such things as salary, leave of absences, and fringe benefits. She is also co-chairman of the school Insurance Committee where she helps district employees understand insurance coverage such as health, life, and disability insurance. Ms. McGillivary not only teaches history; she helps make history in working for the teachers of Richfield High School. Hoots W. Johnson, D. Art Industrial Arts Juengling, A. Social Studies Koike, E.

German Teacher On Sabbatical When asked about her year in Europe while on sabbatical leave, French teacher Ms. Nancy Nicholson commented, “It was interesting and I enjoyed it, but I don't think I'd do it again in a long while! Ms. Nicholson spent time in Lauranne, Switzerland and Madrid, Spain, where she studied French and Spanish at the Euro-center School for Languages. In France, she resided in an eighteenth century country-house, learning more about the culture and cuisine of France. Ms. Nicholson learned alot from the father of the family she stayed with because he was an excellent chef. Also in France, Ms. Nicholson met members from the R.H.S. spring French trip, and toured with them as sort of an unofficial guide. She remembered a frantic evening in Paris: “The group was in a different hotel then I was told, and I really had trouble finding them. I finally ended up in a really expensive dress shop, and all the customers were SO concerned for my welfare after twenty dollars in taxi fare and a lot of searching I finally found them. Learning more about the language and culture is what Ms. Nicholson felt she most benefited from during her sabbatical. Hopefully that knowledge will help her continue as an excellent French teacher at Richfield High. Rounds,M. Schwartz, J. Sher, D. Slattery,!. Band English Business Ed. Math Faculty 249 Starner, S.

English Solomonson, E. Social Studies Miss T Active In Minnesota State High School Assoc. For Girl's Sports, Inc. The rise of girl's athletics has progressed quickly over the past few years, and Ms. Vel Teichroew has played an important role in its rise at Richfield as coach of tennis and cross country skiing. But lately her contributions have gone state- wide as she is now executive secretary of the Minnesota State High School Association for Girl's Sports, Incorporated. Each district in Minnesota sends their delegates to the Coaches Association's delegate assembly where recommendations concerning girl's athletics in Minnesota are made and are sent to the Minnesota State High School Board of Directors. The Board then acts on the recommendations which in the past year have included the addition of state tournaments in volleyball, tennis and gymnastics. The job of Ms. Teichroew, or Miss T , is to inform the association's members of activities and developments that occur throughout the year. She accomplishes this by publishing three newsletters each year, along with special notices on special events every month. Miss T enjoys her work with the association and feels that the best possible programs for girls should be made. In her words, That's our business. 250 Faculty Walstadt, S. Business Ed. Trygstad, F.
