Everything flows past us, around us, with us, taunting our awareness. So we remember. All of us existing in the Roncalli world are individually conscious of its Everything; seeing, hearing, understanding Move inwards, behold, The Story Through Our Eyes. English ... a blend of heritage and electrifying ideas of today • Sr. Sheila Crampton True Communication requires people re- moving their masks and being honest with each other'' Mrs. Kost Speech is simply oral communication and communi- cation in essence is sharing ideas and feelings. True communication requires people removing their masks and being honest with each other. (Mrs. Kost) I enjoy journalism because it provides a medium through which I can influence and perhaps convert people to my beliefs. (Yvor Matz) I take journalism because I find it a rewarding course and it will be helpful to me in the future. Also it's fun. (Kevin Whalen) Journalism II students on the Cavalcade Staff invade the office in search of school news. Mary Schleder, Mary Marth Dunhom (seated), Yvor Matz, Diane Ellerbusch, I take journalism because I like writing for the paper and it gives me the behind the headlines news. (Dallas Cefre) Being on the Cavalcade staff, I felt my assignments were more meaningful when they could be shared with others instead of just receiving a letter grade. (Diane Ellerbusch) Sharing self-expression could sum up these two classes. They teach the kids responsibility and leadership. (Becky Rovang) About speech? I have nothing to say. (Pat Lindner) I think that if you are shy and afraid to be in front of people, speech is a great place to try to get over it. It really helps a lot. Next semester we are go- ing to start really going up in front of the class and speaking. (Kathy Sieh) Speech? There's nothing to it. All you do is go up to the front of the class and start talking. When you get done you sit down and Mrs. Kost tells you what you did wrong. (LeRoy Hansen) Writing and editing the newspaper is no small task, but it is a great experience. (Becky Rovang) Kelly Zacher, Kevin Maloney, and Dick Molseed, who con- duct a speech class at Saint Mary's Grade School, plan their daily procedure. 14 Kevin Whalen, Dallas Gefre, Brian Schu- macher, and Sr. Jean Marie Farrell, advisor. Kevin Dandurand delivers a speech to fellow speech students as his voice is recorded on tape. Journalism I students on the Cavalcade Staff: STAND- ING: Linda Whiteside, Colleen Marski, Peg Bauer, Sue Carrels, Mark Zerr, Mary Pat Cohn, Karl Matz, Sue Davies, Mike Jandl, and Jim Howell. SEATED: Deb Gandner, Sue Schmaltz, Carol Olson, Jim Charron, and Cindy Sieh. 15 This is a representation and combination of the areas of social studies in which the students of Roncalli are involved. Three such classes exist, Senior Modem I l f l Problems (including Psychology), Junior U. S. History, and Sophomore-Freshman Social Studies. I’m trying to teach my modern problems students to be o success. Mr. Charles Hanish I'm trying to teach my Modem Problems students to be a success—reliable and well-balanced people. (Charles Hanish) We have to read Psycho-Cybernetics in Modem. It's supposed to change your attitude in 21 days. It hasn't changed mine yet. (Kathy McCarry) We had a test today in government, and I actually enjoyed taking it! (Kathy Yunker) Enjoyed it! How could you? (Mary M. Dunhom) Do you have any current events to share with your class today? (Sr. Marmion Maiers) We watched Indian films in American History, and they sang so loud I got a headache. (Barb Leisen) What did we do in Social Studies? Well what didn't we do! We studied early man first, then about the Chinese. Oh, and then we studied the Greek gods. (Dan Howell) Senior Tom Schmidt quietly absorbs assigned pages of The Greening of America for Modem Problems. I like the teacher, Mr. Hanish is interesting. So far, we've studied Europe and now we have world geogra- phy. (Debbie Lindner) 16 Juniors bring history alive in this skit. John Paul Jones (Dick Molseed) is interrogated by Falter Conkrite (Greg Bell) as the naval officer emphasizes his famous pro- clamation, I have not yet begun to fight. Modem Problems is so relevant. It's not history or math, but it affects daily life so much. It helps bring all other things we've learned into focus. At first I didn't understand at all, but now that it's more on my own level it's getting better. (Carol Weber) Because I'm able to go on individual study in Amer- ican History, I think I learn so much more. I can go at my own speed. (Jeff Murphy) Everybody has a country to make a booklet on in Social Studies. We have to include maps, land fea- tures, flag, education, just about all the information we can find about the country. (Jim Schriver) The reason I took Social Studies was because, uh, I don't know. (Mary Beth Engelhart) Don't fall asleep with open eyes. (Becky Rovang) American History students Jerry Eckrich, Steve Keenen and Steve Schmidt admire projects made by fellow class mates. 17 We re growing our own Euglena . Jan Novak Fourth hour algebra students begin working on pro- blems given to them by Mrs. Kathy Ernst, second quarter practice teacher. Trigonometry student, Sue McClure demonstrates her knowledge of the use of the slide rule to teacher Mr. Dan Lipp. Mr. James Hauck, biology and chemistry instructor, introduces his baby boa constrictor in sixth hour bio- logy class. It's just o bunch of Letters • Debbie Woods Frank Sieh and geometry teacher, Mr. Elroy Cruen- wald, listen to an explanation of an angle by sopho- more Kathy Engelhart. Math and science aren’t really subjects for the brains only. These courses can be related to other fields like gardening. You need biology to recognize the plant and use chemical formulas to help plants grow. (JoAnn Valentine) In chemistry we’re working on chemical equations. Something must be wrong because I actually know what's going on! (Karen Piatz) We're studying cells and stuff under the microscope and parts of the human body. It's very interesting to look through the microscope. We're growing our own Euglena and Paramecia. (Jan Novak) Science is a body of knowledge, factual or theoretical, motivated by curiosity, and is a process of relating facts and concepts. (Mr. James Hauck) It's just a bunch of letters. (Debbie Woods) Geometry is the oldest and most basic math. It teaches students to think logically. (Mr. Elroy Gruenwald) When you mix me and Mr. Hauck, you get an inert sub- stance-my brain. (Jerry Eckrich) General science helps the student better understand the world in which he lives. (Mr. Don Fischbach) I don't see how anyone can live in this world without chemistry. (Sr. Sheila Crampton) A camera focused through the door window catches a candid shot of one general science class, taught by Mr. Don Fischback. There are still new things to discover. (Mr. Dan Lipp) It takes a good guess to get the answer. (Ann Lanham) Karen Piatz takes a reading of the balance to deter- mine the mass and density of a substance in chemistry class. 7 like Mrs. Levsen; she's potient with Business courses at Roncalli can be classified not only as vocational in nature, but as college prep courses also. College surveys and studies have shown that on a national average, those students who took business courses in high school, particularly typing, have done as well or better than students who concentrated on college prep courses only. (Mr. Toni Long) Phil Schroeder prepares tomorrow's bookkeeping assign- ment following instructor Mr. Lon's lecture. Office practice is a little of everything. Mrs. Levsen gives us something to do, and we do it by individual study. Every two weeks it's something different - a machine or filing or bookkeeping or helping Mrs. Lev- sen with different work. (Peggy Werlinger) Typing I is a class with easy bookwork, but my fin- gers are too uncoordinated and so I am still using the hunt and peck system. (Diane Ellerbusch) My duties in the Roncalli office, which is like a busi- ness course, are: filing, typing report cards, ditto machine, electrostatic photo copier, mailing, placing orders, keeping records. It's like any secretary. (Jean Braun) Business law is a large class with individual projects. Some examples are: Military Affairs, Negligence, and Liabilities. Then we go over them in class. (Jean Brunson) Bookkeeping is either a debit or a credit. (Kathy McGarry) Mr. Fishbach incorporated several helpers this year to record class attendance and tardies. They are: Bonnie Hare, Pat Wolf, Pam Albert, Pan Lindner, Kathy Harder, and Lora Hauck. Missing: Becky Rovang. 20 me and good - lookin' too • Jim Charron Brian Schumacher figures a tentative answer for an adding machine problem in office practice. Typing I students, taught by Sr. Delphine Lehner, exhibit their interest in the class by preparing before the class begins. Putting knowledge of sec- retarial work to use in her job at the Internal Reven- ue Service is Mary Beth Kervin. 21 the soul's own speech. A no ny mou: Problems of scheduling, lack of interest on the part of boys and sports interference are difficulties felt this year in chorus. In addition, many people find themselves so involved in other activities that it is necessary for them to drop chorus. (Sr. Jean Marie Farrell) How can you sing with a dry voice? (Carla Gefre) Music isn't just songs, but the feelings, emotions, and actions of a person. (Lois Ryan) Band doesn't get enough support from the students. (Mark Meyers) The band also supports its team and tries to inspire and excite them and at the same time entertain the fans. The band has an awesome responsibility and at the same time a marvelous opportunity to deliver a pleas- ing message to the ear. (Mr. Bob Downie) For the common things of every day God gave men speech in the common way, For the deeper things men think and feel God gave poets words to reveal, For the heights and depths no word can reach God gave men music, the soul's own speech. (Anonymous) I also feel that music should have greater emphasis in the elementary grades and Junior high so that interest will carry over into high school. (Sr. Jean Marie Farrell) It's something to be proud of. More kids should be in band. (Cathy Johns) Sounds of jazz and pop spring from the stage band under the direction of Mr. Bob Downie. Chorus gets a bad deal. I think, though, that Sr. Jean Marie asserts herself enough that few people skip chorus or plan meetings during chorus time. (Mary Martha Dunhom) I don't think anyone really realizes just how much we put into band. Until someone sits down there with us in the band room for an hour a day practicing, they have no right to knock us. 1 think the band deserves a joy jug all our own! (Karen Piatz) Music expresses my school spirit at games . . . da, da, da, da, da, ... (Mark Rieger) Music involves about one- fourth of the student body. I feel it should have a full period everyday as band does - but even band has not had this schedule for many years. (Sr. Hean Marie Farrel) 22 V ip f ft 7 io ■ IS V 3fi J? IQ V. V ii it 29 3 o 30.

Musicians Mary Schleder, Ron Schmidt, and Paul Lapka don't believe in all work and no play. The RHS marching band performs a first, trodding a two mile route in the Northern State Gypsy Day Parade. ALL-STATE CHORUS MEMBERS: Greg Bell, Larry Johnson, Paul Lapka, Sue McClure, Barb DeWalt, JoAnn Sitter, Lois Ryan, Carol Weber, Kevin Maloney, and SITTING: Mike DeVaan. MISSING: Mary Martha Dunhom and Paul Dutt. 24 BAND MEMBERS - BOTTOM ROW: Karen Piatz, Cheryl Biegler, Jane Rice, Maralee Hinds, Nancy Braun, Mary Mattern, Cindy Bossley, and Pat Haffe- man. SECOND ROW: Mark Carlson, Mark Meyer, Tim Wall, Duane Braun, Cindy Scheets, Mary Music expresses my school spirit of gomes.' Mark Rieger After weeks of individual as well as group practices, with many different instructors, fifteen freshmen fin- ally approached the day of the Second Annual Junior Festival Chorus. Saturday, October 16, we practiced all day with students from other schools and towns. (Mary Engelhart) There were 1100 of us at All-State Chorus and the sound was fabulous. Jester Hairston was our director and he was really a magnetic, loving person. (JoAnn Sitter) Schleder, Paul Lapka, Mark Rieger, Nancy Sanders, Mike Evelo, Kathy Johns, Priscilla Haffeman, Beth Johns, and Cindy Nikolas. BACK ROW: Paul Dutt, Jim Schrivcr, Shannon McGee, and Mr. Robert Downie. Missing: Jean Gerber. In November, we had All- State Chorus and Orches- tra in Watertown. This group comprises the best-quali- fied singers from upper classes. Competition is keen for this honor. (Sr. Jean Marie Farrell) The only word to describe All-State Chorus is 'soul- ful!' (Lois Ryan) Our Christmas musical was well received. One parent commented: 1 came expecting to hear Silent Night for the umpteenth time during the Christmas season, and was pleasantly surprised by the folk musical. (Sr. Jean Marie Farrell) Meeting other kids and getting to know them was pro- bably the best experience any of us had. (Debbie Woods) Our spring musicals now have a three year tradition. These musicals give students a chance to work on sing- ing, dancing (much of the choreography is created and taught by students), staging, makeup and costum- ing. It gives students a chance to find out whether they'd like to study seriously for the stage. (Jean Marie Farrell) JUNIOR FESTIVAL CHORUS - TOP ROW: Jim Walker, Jim Sayler, Mary Beth Engelhart, Linda Valentine, Debbie Woods, Jan Novak, Shirley Lacher, and Becky Waltman. BOTTOM ROW: Kim Labcsky, Laura Dickin- son, Jim Johnson, Becky Schumaker, Mary Jo Pauley, and Roger Weber. Missing: Tim Roby. After putting many extra-curricular hours into practice, the Roncalli Band members perform for the Christmas concert. . . . She works us o lot, but it's Sophomore girls practice a dance routine which they presented in the patriotic concert consisting of band, chorus, and drill team. worth it. Roberta Herman Freshmen girls find chorus practice loads of fun until Sister Jean Marie cracks her proverbial whip at their failure to keep silent while the sopranos learn their part. Sister Jean Marie leads a group of choristers in practice for the patriotic concert presented in the gym, March 1. 26 Jon Ussery, Mark Meyer, Gary Tiegs, Mark Carlson, Paul Lapka, and Mark Rieger. The band was direct- ed by Mr. Robert Downie. concert - both I liked the musical's theme better than the concert because there is so much about patriotism around. And love is something that everyone is willing to listen to. (Jo Ann Deibert) To me, the musical and the concert are about the same. They both add life to the school. It's something to be involved in other than just school work. I also like it better than just sitting in the chorus room. (Ann Lanham) Our musical was really a lot of fun and I think that this concert will be fun, too. I've never heard of a concert in the gym, but it seems like a good place. Sr. Jean Marie really has picked out some good songs and she works us a lot, but it's worth it. (Roberta Herman) We started our tour with Sacred Heart School and the Junior High. We mostly play jazz music and a little old music. Mr. Downey started it last year and we just kept it up. I like it because it's a good experience.' (Cheryl Beigler) I really like band and Mr. Downey is a great teacher. He seems to care about us and does his best to help us. We worked so hard for the musical that we almost knew our parts by heart. (Nancy Braun) like any basketball, football, or track team, we need school support to improve on. An extreme amount of work and hours for rehearsal go into each concert, but playing for a full house would make it worthwhile. We hope that more people will be at our concerts next year and I am sure we can provide some good entertain- ment. (Mark Meyer) The Roncalli Stage Band, FIRST ROW: Mary Schle- der, Cheryl Biegler, Mary Mattern, and Karen Piatz. SECOND ROW: Mike Evelo, Pual Dutt, Greg Bell, The musical and the add life to the school.

Economics students Rita Burgard, Becky Cotman, Monica Salei 28 Who are you, why are you, what are you, and where are you going, may well be questions you'll be asked to ponder if you are a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior beginning Home Economics. I use such thought questions in helping students select a work plan tailored to their needs as well as their wants. (Mrs. Robert Haffeman) I thought it'd be a lot different than it is, I mean, like she'd tell you what to do everyday. But you get to study what you want. And, besides just learning homemaking, you can also learn things on personality and friendship. (Anne Schriver) My main interests center around Home Economics, so that's why I'm taking it. It's a course that if you want to learn, you can. I mean, you know and make your own grade. (Peg Bauer) It has been a pleasure to teach Latin at Roncalli. There is no limit to what can be taught in Latin— mythology, history, architecture, art, literature. These are only a part of our great Latin and Greek tradition which the Church so carefully preserved dur- ing the darkest hours of civilization. (Sister Loyola Mullally) I like languages and enjoy learning about other people and their customs, so I thought Spanish would be a good subject to take. I am planning to go on to Spanish II which is a compliment to the teacher as well as the subject. (Karla Bormes) When Gina, the girl from Brazil, first came here, I realized that English just didn't get through to her, so I was really glad I had Spanish. It's so much easier to relate with her. (Mary Daschle) Spanish I students, Kris Thompson, Mary Noble, Mary Jo Pauley, and Tom Schick, listen to Spanish transla- tions on tape. Spanish is one subject that I can really say I like. It's really a lot more fun than I thought it would be. If you're planning to travel to any countries, knowing a language like Spanish is really a help. (Pat Beckcl) Spanish II students prepare a taco dinner to serve to the student body. Sr. Loyola, in her last year of teaching Latin at Ron- calli, goes over translations with Bill Bormes, and Candice Bothwell. (Not pictured, Kevin DeVaan) Canadian students, Howard Restall, John Getz, Bonny Fraser, and Robin Cowryluk, exchange ideas about the United States with Rich Dafnis, Linda Whiteside, and Cal Clausen. The time that we passed together was only happiness. Gina Maya Explaining Brazilian customs to speech classes, foreign student, Gina Maya pauses to catch her breath. James Abourezk, Democratic U. S. House Representa- tive, speaks on state and federal issues before an assembly of Roncalli students. Lieutenant Governor William Dougherty speaks out in favor of the 18 year-old vote at a special assembly. Boys State 1972 candidates are, Dick Molseed, his alternate Tom Schumacher, Randy Hinds, Joe Bam- altemate Bob Pitz, Greg Bell, Jerry Eckrich, Greb's ett's alternate, and Mike Heil. MISSING: Joe Barnett. The 1972 Girls' State candidates are, BELOW: Karen Piatzaand, Candice Bothwell, JoAnn Valentine's alternate. ABOVE: JoAnn Valentine and Cathy Harder, Karen's alternate. Being selected for Girls' State from Roncalli is really an honor. You are given a chance to participate in government on the state level, and so it's really some- thing more than your picture in the yearbook. (Cathy Harder) Each boy will have an opportunity to learn that each act of government has some bearing on his own and his fellow citizen's life, liberty and happiness. (Mr. Fischbach) At our assembly, Mr. Dougherty impressed me as an honest, clear thinking politician who was not afraid to answer questions from the student body, even at the risk of offering an unpopular opinion. (Mrs. Haffeman) In Canada, I had to accomplish the making of friends and mark my being in the lives of my Canadian fam- ily. (Peg Bauer) Having a Canadian student stay at my home is some- thing I'll never forget. I found out Howie was just the same as me. He did the same things only did them different. For example, his beer is about 5% more alcohol than ours. (Jerry Eckrich) What can be said, Dougherty represents SD at its finest. Believe me, it shows. He was just great the way he handled the kids. (Mr. Lohman) I'm sure I was only one of several other exchange students that will come to study at Roncalli and I'd like that you give them the same love I received. Now, I have to go back to Brazil but my thoughts will stay always here with you. One thing I want to say before goodbye and thank you . I love you. (Gina Maya) Members of the Liturgical Committee: Wendy Howell, Corinne Schmidt, Jean Braun, Cheryl Brunson, Mrs. Levsen, Larry Johnson Do not withhold him The Guidance Department at Roncalli helps a student to know himself through various kinds of evaluation, and provides information to help him plan his future realistically, as well as to help him with any personal problems that come up. Students, freshmen to seniors, are asked to make use of these services. (Sr. Marmion) I work in another part of the Guidance Department, personal problems of the student and family here at Foncalli. Many people talk of the Christian Commu- nity at Roncalli. I like to think that I'm part of the community, working with students, teachers, and families. (Sr. Rita) The Liturgy Committee brings out the student's idea in the celebration of mass at Roncalli. I believe we do a good job of it. We try to make mass meaningful to the students yet keep the idea that we're here to worship God. (Joe Barnett) We are not the Fathers of our conscience. (Mark Meyer) Religion here at Roncalli is to open the students to the good news of Jesus Christ and encourage their per- sonal commitment to love Christ and mankind. (Fr. Krier) It's different to look for and try to find your mean- ing of God in books. I like independent study because I did my religion, I didn't have it pushed into me. (Anonymous) Religion this year is more enjoyable to me than ever before. It has a wider selection of topics and makes it more interesting. (Kevin Maloney) Frank Schmidt, Joe Barnett, Jim Sayler, Mr. Hauck, and Fr. Krier. from doing good . .

Learn by doing, by experiencing. '' Mrs. Anne Kost Mr. Jerry Krueger, Minority Croup Relations instructor at Northern State College, speaks to the Roncalli Key Club on the essence of prejudice. Drill team member Sue Carrels and Cindy Sieh work at Valet's car wash to raise funds for new uniforms. President Biff King and Student Council members hosted Bonnie Fraser and other Canadian exchange students for a special dinner. Kiwanis Club sponsors the student ex- change. I think FTA gives kids with time on their hands something to do with this time. They learn to know how a teacher feels, and also have the satisfaction of teaching. (Sr. Carol Grant) You feel a joy inside when you find a grade-school student who has learned something you have taught him. (Mike DeVaan) Future Teacher's is fun and also a good tiling to do for a study hall. (Pam Lindner) I don't know if anybody realizes it but Key Club is an open service club for anybody in the school. We sold popcorn and Christmas wreaths this year. (Tom 'Schumacher) All the money made by Booster Club goes to Roncal- li in one way or another; however, we like to spend it the way we sec fit. A few meetings with the wives arc to create enthusiasm in the whole school, not only with athletics. (Pete Yunker, Booster Club chairman) We at Roncalli make our fortunes in caramel apples. Even the more conservative Roncalli students stand in line for hours just to purchase a 15c caramel apple at a bakesale. (Kevin Whalen) Ever since summer we've been having bakesales, car washes, even working for the air show to raise money for new drill team uniforms. (Sue Carrels) Last week, 1 spent $5.00 to make caramel apples, and when I was finished, I didn't have 15c left to buy one back. (Mary Martha Dunhom) Anxious expressions are vividly shown here as RHS students flock to purchase goodies at one of the bakesales sponsored by the cheerleaders and drill team throughout the year. Going down to Stephan, South Dakota, to observe the Indian way of life on a reservation are, STANDING: Debbie Fettig, Mary Frey, Carl Matz. SEATED: Larry Johnson, Kathy Engelhart, andJimGefre. They plan to prepare a Brotherhood program based on their ex- periences at Stephan. Student - Faculty com- mittee - an overdue means of communica- tion. 11 Scott Sahli If the Student - Faculty Committee will help to break down barriers or so-called walls between them and the faculty, then I think it's a good idea. (Shirley Erickson) The night the six Minnesota Vikings football players came to town it was a big dream come true for the young fan. He witnessed six husky brutes attempt to play an alien sport. For the adults the evening was spent to charity. (Jim Noble) At first I joined A. R.C. because I thought I was going to have fun, but once I started working with the children, I found that the fun wasn't in the conventions or seminars but in seeing the joy in their faces. Helping them learn to swim or some other simple skill gave me more enjoy- ment than a seminar ever could. (Jerry Eckrich) I'm in Young Dems because I want to be prepared for the day when my generation will be running this country.

John Roehr i v The Cavaliers, who have never lost a homecoming game in six years, continued tradition in scalping the Sisseton Redmen. The defeat also enhanced the Ron- calli '71 football season. I think homecoming on SDEA week-end was a great idea. It gave us plenty of free time, cleaning the gym, collect- ing barrels and lumber, building the stage, decorating, and football. Another great thing about homecoming was the talent show. The priests at the mass added to homecoming spirit the most, giving extra swallows of wine to the tense football players. (John Roehr) It was hard to get the students fired up for the game, mass, and pep assembly. The bread and wine received at mass gave a closer feeling to God. (Mary Beth Kervin, Barb DeWalt) Homecoming was a bummer, a dry one. (Ron Seiler) It's too bad the weather didn't cooperate better for the mass. To make the bonfire more fun, we should've had a weanie roast. (Tom Schumacher) For some reason or another, we all couldn't get together and participate. The mass, dance, everything was well- planned and two well deserving people were coronated Thursday, October 7. (Brad Fritz) I thought he (Wayne) was going to fall off the horse.

'' Sr. Jean Marie As ihe years pass, our memories center around the special things in our school life, the things that stand out in our minds. How many of us ever sit down and remember the every-day tilings we did? A normal day is being tired from getting up early. (Vicki Ickrich) It's the pain of those locked relief areas. (Jim Crabowska) What we need is a can opener. (lorn Schmidt) Oh, Oh, Don's down there and he's coming this way. (LeRoy Hansen) There's just no such thing as a Saturday morning. (Brian Schmacher) What I like about school is when we don't have it. What I do not like about school is when we have it. (Ksley Thornton) 'The only word to describe noon hour is CHAOS! (Sister Jean Marie Farrell) Not all happening of an ordinary day are bad. Once in a while something is at least funny. (Becky Rovang) It's really nice to see so many kids. (Sister Carol Grant) In general, the people who pass through these halls are open minded. Those that are not are immediately distinguishable. (Karl Matz) I don't know if I'm coming to school tomorrow. I think I might be sick. (Debbie Randall) Taking a break during one of his more interesting classes is Dick Molsced. Coming to school in the morn- ing, Bill Schapp, along with many fellow students adds finishing touches. Jim Crabowska exuberantly ends another school day. w The Freshmen boys (?) sport interesting attire at the Freshmen-Sophomore Basketball Marathon sponsored to raise money for the Christmas Fund Drive. The best team always wins 11 Wendy Howell People get so original on Berry Becker Day. Ken Stanley would have felt proud. (Kathy Yunker) I think the Christmas fund was a great tiling. It showed that the students really did care, at least about the things that matter. Much effort was put into to it and much satisfaction was gotten out of it. (Kim Kaiser) When Roncalli played Central, it was the most fun game of the year. (Buffy Herges) Senior skip day? A big drunk. The only time I get drunk all year. (John Bossly) I wouldn't mind movies at school if we had some that I haven't already seen. The two so far this year, Arabesque and Rachel Rachel, I've seen. Oh well, I guess you can't look a gift-horse in the mouth. At least we get out of class. (Mary Dunhom) The student center is a place for the kids to get away from the monotony of the school day and see and talk to each other. (Nancy Andries) The Impacts were the first real soul band to come to Roncalli. (Tom Schumacher) 44 Seniors Ron Schmidt, Steve Amtz, and Dave Wolf literally eat turkey at the annual Thanksgiving dinner. The rest of the student body ate chicken. Green and Gold comes through again with another two points for the Roncalli fans and Coach Hanish in the now classic, January 18, Roncalli - Central basketball game. 45 To improve school spirit, students from each class were chosen as Mr. and Miss Pep.

The freshmen chosen were Kim Labeski .1 Roger Weber (not pictured). School's not always so monotonous, special things do happen now and then. (Karen Piatz) Relaxing on the football field, students gather for an outdoor pep assembly. We need more things during the school day to get students and faculty together for special events. We have things outside the school, but we need situation like an in-school party or movies so that the students and faculty can have fun together once in a while. (Mrs. Sandra Levsen) What I liked best about the Thanksgiving Dance was Barb. (Jeff Murphy) The Smoke Ring were great. (Marilyn Wetzler) At College Nite I left after two sessions. All they did was to sit you down and every guy told you the advan- tages of their college. (Jim Howell) I think we should have more people like Bill Dough- erty here to make the kids wake up and think once in a while. (Becky Rovang) It's a good place to start our thinking of what Roncalli could be. The Roncalli Evaluation Team is kind of a summary thing. They hear all points of view from an objective, unbiased look. I hope they can come back in two years to see Roncalli moving in a direction they helped us reach for.

Denny spent his month interim from St. John's University working with the Roncalli art department. 48 Lynn Reis and Dave Fettig diligently apply paint to the easel as they work on the oil paintings for Art II. Art is the working of o feeling. Roncalli's art department has great potential thanks to Sr. Rosaria. I hope her dream of having it expanded comes true. It's a great asset of Roncalli and a depart- ment everyone should be proud of. I am. (JoAnn Sitter) Art is expressing yourself on paper or wood and then having something to remember it by. (Tom Burgard) Art is the working of hands to form a feeling. (Phil Schroeder) Art gives you a great feeling of accomplishment when you see your finished product, especially the wood- carvings! A sigh of relief is in order, when you seethe woodcarving that you slaved on for nine weeks painted and framed! (Barb Leisen) Art is different than any other class I have taken. It sort of takes the hassle out of the day. (Dave Fettig) Each day I look forward to art class because it is a time when I can express myself. The time spent in class is all done with enjoyment. (Kathy Sieh) To me, art is relaxation. It satisfies my desire to be creative and makes me aware of the talents I have been given. (JoAnn Sitter) I think art is a lot of fun. Art helps you to get through the day. (Tammy Fredenberg) hands to form Phil Schroeder Sr. Rosaria has outshone any teacher here at Roncalli in her complete dedication and sole interest in her work and students. She will be a warm and wonderful Roncalli memory. (Kathy Yunker) Perhaps what I like best about the art course is that we never put out simple projects. Each project takes time and effort and when one's done he has a feeling of pride and accomplishment. (JoAnn Sitter) Art is one class that is working its way up in the Ron- calli curriculum. (Dave Wolf) Each project consumes much time and hard work. The joy of finishing a project and knowing you have accom- plished this leaves you with a great feeling. (Kathy Sieh) I think art is a great class. It doesn't really give you complete instructions, but small amounts of each kind of work such as woodcarvings, pastels, and others. (Anonymous) I just wish I would have taken Art I last year so I could take Art II this year, because it really is a lot of fun and good experience. (Cal Clausen) Art is significant because it freezes a part of the crea- tor's true self in a sharing media. (Anne Kost) 49 Dave Wolf uses a caliper to insure the correct length of the head he is making in Art II class. Molding and shaping it with her hands, Rita Burgard forms a head for the sculpture project of Art II class. If you do o port well enough, it in peoples' minds. reflects Tom Schumacher Drama is an intellectual experience of expression. You can express things so well on the stage with body movements. It's so much fun to be someone else, too, for you can be anyone on stage. If you do a part well enough it reflects in peoples' minds and stands out as an emotional thing. You can express yourself so freely and openly in dramatics. (Tom Schumacher) The biggest tiling you learn about directing a play is to be as good of an actor on stage as off; as much of an actor as your actors so you may show them the patli to perfection. (Yvor Matz) The drama at Roncalli has shown some outstanding efforts of the students and is unique in that students do so much of their own writing and directing. (Greg Ball) Drama is good exercise for the imagination. (Jackie Costello) I think students have a lot to offer in the area of dramatics - if only they would. (Wendy Howell) One-act plays are what it's all about . . . Once a year budding thespians choose, select, arrange, adapt a series of one-acts and in a marathon of presentation every Roncalli student whose industry is equal to his choice, whose work is equal to his desire, walks on stage and turns into a character . Plays are chosen by them, directed by me, and presented to you. Sometimes it's a big affair - sometimes it's a sort of flop - but always it is work and fun and worth it. (Sr. Sheila Crampton) Drama can bring the shyness out of a person. (Kevin Dandurand) The 'Summertree' road trip was wild. I thought the best part happened while the truck was turning a comer in Sioux Falls. The horn stuck and we drove for 13 blocks down the main section of town before we could get out and pull the wire off the horn. (Paul Lapka) Drama is a way of releasing emotions. (Buffy Herges) I myself don't like drama. If a person plays a part which fits his own character then it is worthwhile. All else is phony. I hate phony things. (Dave Janusz) Drama can help you forget enough about yourself so you can look back on who you are. (Anonymous) Next year, I look forward to drama in the curriculum - with a presentation every nine weeks. That will be grand. (Sr. Sheila Crampton) I believe drams is the purest form of expressive art. It interprets society - people - endless in the human spec- trum, from the point of heavenly bliss, to the depths of Freudian darkness and despair. (Yvor Matz) I think 'Summertree' afforded me many insights - a deep consideration of a very real world situation, the Vietnam War, appreciation of Ron Cowen's simple talent to reach behind a political war and reveal a senseless waste of young life, and a closeness to the thoughts and feelings of five other people, the other cast members. (Kathy Yunker) Chuck Morrissey expresses one emotion captured in the play My Next Husband Will Be a Beauty to his cast, Sue McClure and Karen Piatz. 50 Surrounded by those who become other people , Sister Sheila sets a schedule for use of the stage. Dave Janusz Yvor Matz, the first student direc- tor for a Roncalli play, expresses disgust at a mix-up of the actors' lines. The camera catches Chuck Morrisey and Tom Schumacher practicing lines for Summertree , by Ron Cowen.

Personally I feel that the cheerleaders are an energe- tic bunch of young ladies, who have an outstanding amount of talent. The hardest thing for me is trying to remember what it was like when I was their age. At times I know I may push them too hard, but in doing this I found how much they really can give. (Mrs. Sandra Levsen) Their spirit was up even when things looked down. (Mike Brown) For the amount of work that they go through, it shows a great deal of dedication and belief in our school. (Sr. Rita Dohn) Sometimes I get mixed up, like the time I was sup- posed to be doing the routine to 'Hey Look Us Over' and I started to do the routine to 'The School Song'. Boy, was I embarrassed! (Margie Janusz) Advising the cheerleaders seems like a pipeline to the rest of the school activities. Through the cheerleaders I learn how most of the students feel. I find it easier to relate to my students. (Mrs. Sandra Levsen) Winter Snow poses no stop the zesty wrestling cheerlea- ders in making numerous out-of-town matches.

(Sr. Carol Grant) I think the drill team is an outstanding group of girls with many modernized ideas. They should perform more because it not only adds to the excitement of the game but also displays the Roncalli spirit. (Caron Fisher) There was one time that I remember when we got our skirts mixed up and I ended up with one too big for me. I almost lost it during the performance! (Sue Carrels) Let's appreciate these girls while their here because we all know that a good thing never lasts too long, and be- fore we know it they'll be gone, leaving only memo- ries. (Sr. Carol Grant) I feel tliat the drill team opens up to girls the chance to perform before the school and to show their school spirit. Also not everyone gets to be a cheerleader and the drill team provides for this. The drill team makes up for it. Also, it helps the girls learn to work toget- her and learn team cooperation.

Nine weeks of dedication and effort despite minor injuries and pains. The game is basically violent in nature, but requires a great deal of self-control and self- discipline. In my view, Roncalli football was good this year, but it was short of great. The basic reason it was short of great was because there wasn't total commitment by all the players. Football is improving at Roncalli and has great possibility in the future. I hope potential is realized in the next few years. One good year does not make a tradition, it takes many years of good years to have a great team. (Tom Long) It was a good season For a school this small. But wait 'til next year And we'll win them all. (Leroy Hansen) I never went to any of the games and it never bothered me. (Chuck Morrisey) The season was pretty good. You notice we never lost a game at which the band played! (Paul Dutt) Nobody broke training regular. Last year almost every- body got drunk at the Homecoming dance.

V. 14 14 Britton 22 7 Groton 14 0 The weather was cold. Miller was at the 3-yard line, second half of the game. We formed a goal line de- fense. They whipped a triple-option play where the quarterback can either fake to a half or fullback or keep it. Well, he kept it after a fake to one of the backs and ran around the right. We tackled the back, thinking he had the ball, and so did the ref. He blew his whistle calling the ball dead, just before the quarter- back had ran past the goal for a touchdown. So it never counted, as the ref. can't go back on his decision decision. (AI Lingor) The defense got tired because offense couldn't do any- thing. Clark won the game in the last two minutes. Mike Culey was a bulldozer. (Kevin Dandurand) Our winning record was due alot to the fact that all the juniors who didn't start on Varsity played Junior Varsity games. Bill Charron did a terrific job as quarterback having been switched to that position from last year as a halfback. Speedy Dave Janusz was leading rusher and Randy Hinds was leading pass receiver. (Bill Yunker) The Roncalli freshmen team was a group marked by exceptional individuals, but injured with lack of depth. Their season, displayed many close games.

I wasn't going to choke away the game so I passed the ball to Mike Heil who scored the win- ning two points on a layup. (AI Lingor) It isn't so easy to sit on the bench and watch your buddies play. Although, since we are winning I don't mind getting blisters. (Steve Talcott) Basketball's just a game to me. If you play well you don't get an A or B. I guess it's just for the crowd to see. Shooting a lot is part of my game. (Tom Schmidt) Basketball to me is a sport of mixed emotions and feelings. Sometimes you're up and sometimes you're down. Certainly nobody enjoys the hard painful prac- tices throughout the week, but it is all forgotten soon after it is over. Winning a game is the greatest feeling a guy can have. Lucky for us, most of our experiences on the Roncalli basketball team were great ones. But don't doubt it, everything isn't fun in basketball. Pain and shame occur occasionally. (Randy Hinds) I was satisfied with the way my poll turned out because everybody was so anxious to see who was rated each week. Roncalli's rating ranged from No. 6 to No. 2 throughout the year which reflected not only the great- ness of our team but the faith the voters had in our team.

I think that Roncalli will have a winning team next year. (Mike Leif) It was a great experience to be down at the State Wrestling Tournament. (Keith Seiler) We should work more as a team. We wrestled good against the better teams and poor against the weaker teams. (Frank Sieh) It won't be as big as basketball, but it is a program that will soon come into its own. (H. I. King) What is a wrestler? Dedicated, sunken-faced, hungry, scentful, psyched up, tight, lean-limbed, hopeful. (Jerry Eckrich) 68 I went to one match, I think it's gross.

When you're out on The 1971-72 wrestling season began with about 35 men reporting for practice. Being a young and in- experienced team their goals were clearly defined. They must work for their own personal improvement and promote the sport in many different ways. It must be sold to parents, fans, sportswriters and fellow students. After the first month has past the team has shown much progress toward their goal. With the present attitude of the team our program will definitely develop into a great one. (Coach Elroy Crucnwald) 'The fans don't give us enough support. And if the fans don't have confidence in us liow can we have confidence in ourselves? (David Oliver) Wrestling means work. It means getting out there and doing it yourself. It means losing weight. It means winning. (Ron Salwci) I'd never do it, but I don't mind it. (Kevin Maloney) Cruenwald's the best wrestler because he's a married man. (Richard Ceary) Wrestling is the most underated sport in school. (Kevin Whalen) 'There's only one feeling better than winning a match. (Wayne Zacher) It could use more support from the school. (Joe Barnett) I understand it more now that I'm a wrestling cheerleader. Ami once you get to understand it you appreciate it more. (Kathy Prunty) Wrestling is a sport for the individual, when you're out on the mat, you're all alone. (Bob Zacher) the mot, you're oil alone.

Kevin DeVaan Anytime a group of 20 to 30 students can finance, produce, and sell the complete story of the ideas, events, and people of as large an institution as we are, they're showing responsibility and a lot of caring of Roncalli. (Mrs. Anne Host) The Lance takes a lot of work, but it's worth it. I do think next year it should be a class, to bring about more interest in it. (Kevin DeVaan) Mike Sayler, Kathy Yunker, Sue Davies, Mrs. Kost, Karen Piatz, and Carol Weber, got it all together. ■ American Yearbook Representative, Gary Ilstrup, checks layouts on one of his monthly visits. Some fiction, some fact, but lots of fun! (Mr. Fishbach) We do have a lot of good times. The darkroom was the original student lounge. We've grown closer and personally I've made friends I will always cherish. (Mike Sayler) Working on the Lance is really alot of fun even though I complain about it. You learn how to be real nice to people that hate your guts and you hate theirs too, just for quotes or pictures for the yearbook. I'm finding out a little bit here and there on all kinds of tricks of the trade , like cutlines, cropping pictures, getting good copy, etc. I wonder what next year will bring. (Tom Schumacher) Working on the Lance has meant finding a Christmas tree in the darkroom, searching for hours for a lost picture, not having to do supper dishes because a mem- ber of the Lance staff did them for you, and getting up at 4:00 a.m. to leave for a yearbook meeting in Brookings. (Mrs. Anne Kost) For everyone who helped us keep a sense of humor and spirit when Sue and I and the staff were two weeks behind a deadline, thanks! (Kathy Yunker) Mark Rieger loads his camera. Roncalli photographers added a Christmas touch to their home away from home , the darkroom.

It just started with an idea Yvor Matz I I Mark Zerr, Roncalli's only Cross-country team member, stays in shape the year round. If we would have had a full team and a coach, I feel the season would have been more successful, although I did work out with Central's team coached by Mr. Salmi. (Mark Zerr) I started the season with the Roy Granger race at Lee Park, after working out all summer. I placed 39th out 107 (fair). The second race of the year, which I attended with Central, was the Ipswich Invitational. There I placed 12 out of 70 (very good). The Northeast Conference at Redfield was the next race. Hampered by a cold I placed 22 out of 59. The next weekend I participated in the State Cross- country Meet in Brookings. I was the first RHS runner to run in this meet. (Mark Zerr) All in ?11 I think the Cross-country season helped me in many different ways to make this next track season more prosperous. (Mark Zerr) 'The Roncalli Bowling League is divided into 13 teams with three members to a team. Each week you bowl a different team, so you get to know everybody in the league a bit better. The teams compete against each other for the top position. The roughest part of getting to the top is beating the guys with a high handicap and a high game. That's the real challenge! Some people go away with hard feelings but those are usually washed away when next week comes and they win all four of theirs. It takes a lot of concentration but it's also a lot of fun. (Pat Reis) Being on a bowling team is a great experience for each individual person. It is something to look forward to each week. Some people live just for Tuesday night at 3:45 when they can go bowling. (Pat Reis) We think the Chess Club is a good thing to have at Roncalli since it is so hard to get anything going here. The club consists of 14 people, the matches are played according to tournament rules. The players are rated in places first to fourteenth. To go up a place you must play the player who is one above you and beat him. We are planning to get experienced chess players to come and talk to us. We are also looking forward to having a tournament against Central's chess team. (John Dobrick) We're a new organization and we're going to gear the club mainly to the uixlerclassmcn so they develop it when the seniors are gone. It just started with an idea. (Yvor Matz) Students of every class spend Tuesdays and Wednesdays playing intramural basketball in the gym. Two of the eight girls' teams clash here in a thrilling match. The first girl to touch the person's toes opposite her own is the winner in this race for physical fit- ness in girls' gym class. 7 wanted to get more Mrs. Peg Johnson, physical education, instructor, explains the basic rules of basketball to one of her classes. The annual Powder Puff Football Game held each fall had three Roncalli players, Buffy Herges, Shirley Erikson, and Marilyn Wetzler on the junior and senior teams. 76 T involved • Carol Hartze The Ladies' Auxiliary's prime function is to be a ser- vice organization to the school and its faculty. Mrs. Gordon Bell is the president and Mrs. Clarence Herges is the secretary-treasurer. The salad luncheon tire auxiliary had was a first with enthusiasm for next year. The proceeds were given to the Catholic Central School Board to be allotted to the religion department. (Mrs. Sam Woods) The Booster Club sponsored a basketball game between members of the Minnesota Vikings football team and Aberdeen Sandy's. They didn't make any money after they paid for the Vikings and the arena and other ex- penses. The Vikings were pretty good at playing basketball, though they lost. It was funny the way they kept intimidating Mr. Gruenwald who was one of the referees. (Lora Hauck) The Seniors won the Powder Puff Football Game. It was pretty close. There were only three of us from Roncalli. Boys from Northern coached us and gave us Northern uniforms which were too big. The winners could get in free to the dance afterwards. (Marilyn Wetzler) 1 joined girls' intramural because I didn't belong to anything else at Roncalli. I wanted to get more in- volved. (Carol Hartze) Some rules are different for girls' basketball, but that's okay because the rules they left out are the ones I usually break. (Caron Fischer) There's nothing better to do on Wednesday night than play basketball. I wish we'd play die whole court in- stead of half. The way they let the clock run is differ- ent. It runs even if we make a foul. (Mary Jo Pauley) A member of the Ladies' Auxiliary, Mrs. Woods brings her favorite salad dish to a salad luncheon, which the women's group sponsored in the fall to raise money for the religion department.

The projects they have undertaken thus far include: several school dances, Homecoming, and the Christmas fund drive for needy families in Aberdeen. All of these events have been successful. (John Longtin) They recognize the proglems in this school - but the problems haven't yet been solved. (Carol Weber) The constitution of our school is often overlooked, but it is important because it ties the school together in the same way the spirit at a basketball game uni- fies us. (Joe Barnett) What's it all about? (Kathy Sieh) The Council has tried to stimulate and foster a spirit of unity and community here at Roncalli. Through motivation by the student council we seek a more en- thusiastic and spirited student body. (John Longtin) Student Council members, Tom Weber and Dick Mol- seed use their muscles to earn money for needy fam- ilies in Aberdeen. Mark Rieger me, I haven't paid mine yet.''

(Tom Schumacher) Our service projects have included going door to door with drug alert leaflets, club members drive old folks to church for Christmas, and have helped buy a piano for the boy's club in Aberdeen. We also went door to door selling popcorn with all proceeds going to the 'Help Line'. (Tom Schumacher) Meetings are held every Tuesday - but you'd have to see it to believe it. (Mark Rieger) I've seen them setting up chairs, cleaning the gym and selling refreshments at dances. They do jobs no one else would do, and if they didn't do it, it probably wouldn't get done. (Sue Carrels) We sponsored a Christmas wreath sale this year, we sold three times as many as we did last year. This year we also increased our membership and we've be- gun more service projects with the community. The money we cam goes toward donations. (Mike Sayler) Another tiling is you don't have to be a super good athlete to be in Key Club.

Lettermen's club the base of spirit at Roncalli.'' � u Pausing a moment before a work-out on the weight machine is Scott Sahli. He was in contention for the Physical Development award. The Lettermcn Club is one of the most active student clubs at Roncalli. Some of our trademark activities during home games are tug-of-wars (roping off the court) and dutifully beating up little kids that cut across the corners. The thing we do best, however, is earning money. We all sincerely appreciate the man who schemes up money plans and economizes all our money to make this all possible. (John Roehr) Being vice-president in the Roncalli Lettermen's Club is like being a silent partner in a business. The club has come a long way and is getting better. The best addition was the changing to our new letter jackets. (Steve Talcott) A highlight for the efforts of the lettermen is a year- end banquet and dance for all lettermen. (Mr. Long) No one can downgrade Honor Society without secretly wishing they were part of it • Mary Martha Dimhom In the rush of athletics, drama and other school acti- vities, scholarship is many times forgotten, but the National Honor Society places its emphasis on the things that are really important to the school, its scholastic program and the people who excel in that program. The people elected to the honor society, on the national average, are the leaders of the school not only in the classroom, but also as overall citizens in the school. (Mr. Long, advisor) I think the honor society ceremony should be like it was when we were freshmen - with the candles and robes and all the secrecy. Last year, I was told in study hall, and all I can remember about the cere- mony was that 1 was second-to-the-last in the line and didn't get a chair until someone brought up two extras. (Cathy Harder) I was happy to be a new member of this select group of fellow students. I think it is a honor and a privilege to belong to the Honor Society. (Bob Pitz) No one can downgrade Honor Society without secretly wishing they were part of it.

Cheryl Biegler I like the challenge the first graders give me. You realize how stupid you really are when they pop you a question you can't answer. (Peg Bauer) I think FTA gives kids with time on their hands some- thing to do. They learn to know how a teacher feels, and also have the satisfaction of teaching. (Sr. Carol) I joined FTA for the experience of communicating with young children. I teach kindergarten at Tiffany. I enjoy working with the kids (and eating cookies at the meetings). It gave me a greater appreciation and understanding of children. (Cheryl Biegler) I go to Sacred Heart and help the fourth graders with reading. Sometimes I take the whole class and some- times just the slower ones. I joined FTA because I like little kids. It gives me a feeling of accomplish- ment when they learn something.

We are on our own, yet we have supervision and gui- dance under which to grow. Our overall project is to build a Christian community. If we don't first of all have that, we might as well be a public school with CCD. A person should be able to come in and know it's a Catholic school by the attitude and by the relationships between students and faculty. (Mr. Lawrence Lohman) We should feel priviledged to say Mrs. Schaefer is our school secretary. (Chris Graeber) To them it's more than a job. It's working overtime diligently without extra pay just to keep the school in top shape. (Dave Oliver) The administration and student body should do something to make communications between them better. (Vicki Kopecky) Joe's cute and round and jolly! (Kathy Prunty) I've been here eight years. I've thought of learning but I never did anything about it. I'm staying here because I've had two kids graduated from here, one daughter here now and one coming up. Another reason I'm staying is because the kids are all great. (Joe Schmaltz) I started working here because my daughter wanted to go here. With four changes of administration I've never had a dull moment. I don't have much time for other tilings, but I do place importance on taking care of my home and family. (Mrs. Andrew Schaefer) Compared to my high-school days, Roncalli kids have much better spirit. (Mr. George Heier) Mrs. Esta DeVine, Mrs. Adelide Schmaltz, Mrs. Donnabelle Backous and Sr. Agnes Marie Donelan display one day's supply of the 38, 921 buns they prepare each year. Relaxing in the lunchroom with the students after a busy morning are Mr. Lawrence Lohman, principal, and Mr. Don Fischbach, dean of students. Mrs. Andrew Schaeffer, office secretary, and Mr. George Heier, business manager, pause for a moment during a busy day. Mr Robert Arend, School Board President, and the Reverend John Kasch, Superintendent of Catholic Schools, arrive at Roncalli for a School Board meeting. Along with janitorial work, Mr. Eugene Zacher builds a new home at Country Aire Estates. 109 Mr. Joe Schmaltz, custodian, helps supervise lunchroom activities. mMMHUMf 9n s c(aj u)Ms utroo on -iM, kiy o Aoadsy j'fav 6( ilrruu WJdl Luu Cs ijdtju 5(rnULp aOLs JlUXy Or ijrfjL uoco LOhjtAJLs -Mm, b J boy play, ThjUj u Ujo Iu sbutio out ttuuAs oaontO y _ SOTnjunwo skatouz M QfnjJUL be yoUAO. bjtrtc bt lu n ur j } ’((Tic uyfWLu niunjUj jtrty yy[un ) cjrourru bnytAy C(ncL hiAju's ffio mrm.

May brings about many outstanding things in South Tom Long, senior class advisor. Dakota. It's probably the first month we can be reason- ably sure there will be no more snow - but don't count too heavily upon that fact. May however, is traditionally Graduation Month . It is that time which all senior look forward to, yet really dread seeing arrive. High school is over. That is the true and simple fact. All the good times and all the friends are no longer a part of our everyday life. The physical situation we have become used to will never exist again. Memories will play the major part of Roncalli in our lives from now on. Roncalli is gone, in the past, and only a visit or a memory brings it back to us again. Good-bye Roncalli, good-bye teachers and friends, it has really been good to know you. You and your in- fluence will never leave us and we will never forget. If we don't see you in the future, we'll see you in the pasture!!!! (Tom Long, senior class advisor) Ted Hartung strikes a pose not usually seen with a graduation gown and hat. Mr. Fischbach and Mary Pat Gohn informally discuss future plans among other lighter subjects.

MISTER'S MENS WEAR BATES MEN'S STORE Autographs 128 Published by Josten's Notional School Services Ltc Winnipeg. Manitoba. Canada. I remember . . . those special days of spring.'' Rainy weather and cloudy skies failed to dampen the spirits of those attending the annual Junior-Senior Tea. Elected Teacher of the Year by the student body of Roncalli, Mr. Tom Long takes a break from his busy schedule to share a joke with his senior lettermen. Mrs. Anne Kost Your attention, please! Your attention, please! The following are the results of yesterday's student council elections. 1972-1973 Roncalli Student Council officers are: Dick Molseed, president; Tom Hopper, vice-presi- dent; Kathy Sieh, secretary; Karen Piatz, treasurer; and Mary Frey, reporter. Congratulations to the new officers. (Mr. Fishbach) When I first entered the voting booth, I was afraid to touch any of the little red levers. For all I knew, I'd end up blowing up the school or dropping through a trap-door. That's how much I knew about voting by machine. But everything turned out all right. The school's still standing, my feet are firmly planted on the ground, and we've got a brand-new Student Council! (Colleen Marske) I think we're going to see a number of things accomp- lished by our Student Council next year. (Cheryl Bieg- ler) Junior-Senior Tea? You want me to put that into words? (Linda Whiteside) I enjoyed the Junior-Senior Tea. I thought it was really great. However, there's one big problem concerning the tea. The juniors have all the fun and the seniors have all the expenses. (Pam Albert) The only thing bad about the tea was the next morning! (Anonymous) Awards Day brings about a strengthening of the already strong faith that the faculty and staff hold in the student body of Roncalli High School. (Mr. Lohman) I don't like Awards Day because it always seems like the people getting the awards are out for every sport the school offers or else play up to the teachers. That's the way it seems to me. (Esley Thornton) Awards Day - the day the students realize that the game they thought they were playing with the teachers never existed. (Father Weber) Awards Day is certainly significant - people who have worked hard all year recieve recognition. However, an award is just that - an award, and we don't have a chance to reward some of the real virtues like maturity, under- standing, concern for others, and love. (Anonymous) “The prom came too fast and ended too ii SOOn. Karen Cl ausen Talking with people and getting ideas brought the theme 'Days Gone By. (Dick Molseed) The 'Young Raiders' put on a great show even though they didn't know they were playing for a prom until the night they got to Roncalli. (Mike Perrizo) The decorations were real good because I helped. (Bonnie Hare) With a lot of cooperation from a lot of people it came out pretty fair. (Dick Molseed) Several of the 62 couples attending the prom await the beginning of the first dance. The setting was good even though the swans we were going to use fell through on the afternoon before the prom. (Mike Perrizo) The prom was fun, but it's not something I'd want to do everyday. (Becky Rovang) A night of gaiety, laughter, and song. (George Kessler) It was neat to see everybody so dressed up. (Barb Leisen) The prom was great, especially after the dance. (Dan Kaiser) Karen Piatz announced Mark Meyer and his date as they pass in the Grand March. . . . the best coach is no coach at all. Greg Bell Roncalli tennis team members are, STANDING: Greg Bell, Jeff Murphy, and AI Lingor. KNEELING: Tom Seiben, Jerry Matt era, and Jim Ward. NOT PICTURED: Coach Charles Hanish. The season wasn't so good, but I was great. (Jeff Murphy) I played the longest match at the state tourney. (Greg Bell) ... our number one man, Jeff Murphy . . . our number two man, AI Lingor . . . and our number three man, Greg Bell. (Charles Hanish) It was written that Lingor and Bell took first in the second flight at the state meet. That was just a misprint. I had nothing to do with it. (Greg Bell) We're going to be great next year. (Jeff Murphy) DAYS GONE BY 1972 Prom chaperones, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Long, enjoy the atmosphere. Music of the ,rYoung Raiuers create excitement as the 1972 prom draws to a close. Lots of practice, lots of fun. Barb Leisen The quality of the musical showed the amount of work put into it. (Kevin Maloney) A good experience to get to know everyone. (Carmen Woodard) 'Tor high school students it was a damn good job of acting. (Jon Ussery) I liked being a part of it. (Jim Palmer) I'd never want to have to sit through a whole production to do a two-minute dance again. (Kathy Engelhart) Turning black in 14 seconds was a lot of fun. (Dick Molseed) An inspiring casty party . . . . (Greg Bell) Senator Raw kins of Finnigans Rainbow demonstrates his newfound talents to passing gospel singers. Woody, Sharon, and the sharecroppers chorus tell of the pros- perity coming to Rainbow Valley. Necessity singers opening packages are eyed by Jim Palmer and Randy Hinds. 3 Members of girls track shown are: Deb DeWalt, Barb McClure, Vicki Echirch, Margie Janusz, Pat Beckel, Deb Lindner, Marry Zerr, Kathy Engelhart, Martha Rinke, Cheryl Brunson, Laura Dickinson, Kathy Mattem, Becky Schumacher, Kim Kaiser, Carla Geffre, Deb Fettig, Lori Engler, Nancy Sanders, Mary Engelhart, Mary Noble, Sheila Schwab, Corinne Schmidt, Nancy Braun, Pat Lindner, and Rose Mattem. The Roncalli golf team had a fine year. Although it was marked with inconsistency, some bright mom- ents did shine through. The team shows good promise for the next two years. Steve Pfeiffer did an excellent job all year and was the outstanding player on the team. Steve and Jim Noble represented Roncalli at the state meet. (Tom Long) Track is supposed to be easy. Well, it isn t; that’s why I never went. (Debby Fettig) It seems like girls aren't supposed to be able to do anything, but I guess girls' track has proved we can! (Kathy Engelhart) Our track girls were the cutest! (Anonymous) Our 440 relay team with Kathy Engelhart, Vicki Eckrich, Margie Janusz, and Carla Geffre, and 220 winner Vicki Eckrich participated in the State meet at Madison. It was really good because they turned in the best times they had ever run. (Mrs. Johnson) Boys' track members are, STANDING: Randy Hinds, Mike Heil, Cary Homaman, Jim Sayler, Tim Wall, Myron Hoffman, Frank Sieh, Craig Brunson, and Mark Foley. KNEELING: Coach John Longtin, Steve Talcott, Dave Janusz, Jim Charron, Joe Barnett, Mark Zerr, Frank Schmidt, and Mike Brown.
