The study of American Literature for Juniors, was highlighted by the study of American poetry, and a modern idea in drama. Our Town”. Macbeth by William Shakespeare will long be remembered by the seniors, as they concentrated their last year of high school English on English literature. Of course, the dreaded pribble must be passed before a senior is allowed to graduate. Writing, delivering, and interpreting speeches and literary works, was the duty of the speech class. Climaxing a semester of making speeches, was a ten minute original memorized oratory. Bill is hard at work laying out a pag of tha Rohian. Communications With a bang and a whistle was how the 19 7-58 Speech and English classes started. Speech students recall how nervously they delivered their intro- ductory speech. Of course, the usual grammar re- view greeted Sopohmorcs, Juniors, and Seniors in their English classes. Sophomores adventured through literature into the talcs of Silas Marner by Charles Dickens, and waded through Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, in their English classes. Marilyn laaf through a faw of tha many books wa ancountar in English classas. Under the guiding hand of Mr. Ferguson, this years Journalism class undertook their usual task of publishing the Star” along with learning the preliminary skills of newspaper writing and jour- nalism essentials. One of the years highlights was a trip to Bemidji State Teachers College for a Journalism Conference, that was enjoyed by eight Journalism students accompanied by Mr. Ferguson. This was the first time Virginia was represented at this con- ference. Visiting city newspapers was one of the projects of the Journalism class. Budding young journalists are given an oppor- tunity to display their talents and possibly discover sufficient ability and interest in this course to pur- sue a journalistic career. Fine Arts For many years. French and Spanish have been offered to (hose students wishing to take them as electives. These courses take two years to complete with one credit being given for each year if both years are taken. First year students learn the basic essentials of grammar. By the second year, they have advanced far enough to read pieces of real literature. Students in Spanish II had a Christmas party where they enjoyed breaking the pinata . French II students received a paper entitled La Jeunesse Both groups supplement their courses with movies and records. ii,..

Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast , and since their were no savage beasts around RHS, credit for keeping the halls safe must go to the RHS choir. The choir, directed by Mr. Donald Colton, had a very successful season. Their first performance was a Christmas concert in which they presented two Bach cantatas with orchestral accompaniment, besides a variety of other Christmas music. As an Easter concert they presented Prologue to Mcphistophelcs” by Boito. The RHS choir also took part in the annual dis- trict music festival, and finished the season by sing- ing at baccalaureate services. Jan and Pat sdmirs ixing Spanish lift.

Throughout the year the students learned different ways to sketch with crayon, pencils, and chalk. Painting varies, too, among water colors, poster and oil paints. There was craft work and modeling done also. This included working with clay, chip carving, constructing, etc. Besides working at these things they were also kept busy making posters and decorations for school doings. Yes, this certainly was a wonderful place to find and develop interesting hobbies. Mr. Colton instructs his choir concert. so they will bo up to por for thoir Current Events publicationi for 10th.

Social Studies are a very important part of our studies at Roosevelt High. The studies of the accomplishments and fail- ures of the world are important to students who will become the future leaders and voters of the country. We can hope to learn from the mistakes of past generations to make our world a happier and more stable place in which to live. As sophomores, World History taught us of the develop- ment of our civilization from the beginning to the present state of affairs. Miss Simons and Miss Beckstrom sometimes have a hard time pounding important dates and famous his- torical leaders and events into the minds of students. In the junior year, Mr. Anderson and Mr. Haldy intro- duce the constitution and political conditions of the United States in the United States history classes. Presidents, their parties and terms, are one thing that are especially drilled upon this year. Finally our senior year and we meet either Mr. Mcllvenna or Mr. Rukavina for a first semester of Civics. This branch of study deals with the political machinery of our country. Dur- ing the second semester seniors have a choice of either Eco- nomics, which covers money problems and economic condi- tions, or Sociology, where we encounter problems of people and our social order. Ev«ry Friday senior! enjoy reeding Newt Week to learn about world affairs. Amid the beeps of Sputnik and the classified com- muniques from Cape Canaveral, the Wchrner Von brouns of Roosevelt did their part to uphold U.S. pres- tige, although reports of success didn’t seem to be oscil- lating at any great frequency. Biology, Physics, and Chemistry offered many chal- lenges to future button-pushers, which were heartily accepted by many of the rank-n-file. Most sophomores were to be found in Biology class- es, first of all — to eliminate the ’despised’’ science re- quirement, and in the process of doing so — study the racket; involving dissection of forms of animal life, and learning the plant phyla. Microscopes allegedly were very helpful. With the exclamation 'great Caesar's ghost!’’, Mr. Truax introduced his Physicists to facts about light, heat, electronics, sound, and various other items, indispensable in the ICBM, Polaris, The Rat and other everyday con- veniences. Students of Physics worked ’’simple’’ prob- lems using basic formulas, and conducted experiments, putting their knowledge to practical use. If you ever caught sight and whiff of smoke escap- ing from the crack under the door of the Chemistry laD, you will appreciate the skill and industry of the amateurs who inhabit Roosevelt’s proving grounds. Atoms, Mole- cules, lots of formulas, faiences, and symbols ear-marked this course, requisite in the curriculum of every red- blooded future demolitionist and research worker. Guid- ed by Mr. Oman, a veteran of many years in the capacity of Chemistry instructor, students of this science gained knowledge that is becoming vital in the reach for the stars . . . .

A course in homemaking, which consists of a semester of cooking and sewing is offered to the beginner. A full year of cooking or sewing is offered to the advance student. Girls in cooking specialized in learning to make menus, learning food values, giving luncheons, and distinguishing different cuts of beef and pork. Other valuable knowledge was gained by making jams, jellies and canning. Students in sewing began the year by studying children's clothing. Other projects were sewing dresses of wool and synthetic fabrics, studying textiles, moth control, and fabric dyeing. New projects in sewing this year were a play school, in which child care was taught and a home nursing course. All y«s on thoir books, spood and accuracy. ona of Miss Wast’s typing classat works for Courses such as typing, shorthand, bookkeeping and office practice offered in RHS give any student a well-rounded back- ground for further educatioq or for work right out of high school. As juniors, shorthand I supplied a good knowledge of its basic principles. As seniors, shorthand II awarded special merit awards to students meeting its standards of speed and accuracy. Typing is a must to all students and especially to those going into the commercial field who need typing before taking office practice. In bookkeeping the ledger and the journal are the basic books. Students work for accuracy and neatness. Office practice is a big help for those going into business of secretarial work, as students learn to use the dictaphone, adding machine, calculator and similar machines.

Physical Education The two main objectives of a physical education course are to develop a healthy body, and to help the student ap- preciate physical laws and achievements that will be of value to them in leisure time. Girls sports include soccer, speedball, field hockey, bas- ketball, volleyball, softball, recreational sports, badminton and table tennis. Boys sports include basketball, volleyball, besides track, relays, dodgeball and others. In swimming, the student must master the crawl, back- stroke, side stroke and trudgent. Life saving is another phase of swimming offered to seniors. In this course the student must learn different ap- proaches, carries, defenses, and releases. Th girls fry desperately to score points for their team during a volleyball game. Skill and coordination are stressed in gym classes. 17 On of th f w girls in drafting d . Mary Kay works itra hard.

Vocational Education prepares young people for their life’s work. It also helps them choose an occupation. Courses offered include: welding, electricity, cabinet- making, drafting, printing, and auto-mechanics, Smith- Hughes. job relations and on-the-job-training is also pro- vided. Although a student spends three hours in a Smith- Hughes class, only two and one-half credits are given be- cause it is a laboratory not a theory subject. On-the-job- training and job relations are taken together and one credit is given for each. Here students learn a valuable lesson of associating with people in the business world.

Along with a new slate of officers, GAA started the 1937- S8 school year with a new advisor. Miss Theresa Moroni. Leading GAA this year were Diane Isaacson, President; Dor- othy Lundeen, Vice-President; Patricia Johnson, Secretary; Nancy Anderson, Treasurer; and Jean Ostrov, Student Council Representative. The purpose of GAA is to promote good sportsmanship among girls. Due to inclement weather and the remodeling of the gym, the opening sports for the year, archery and speedball, were extremely handicapped and many scheduled games were can- celed. Winding up the first semester, bowling climaxed GAA sports for 1957. Initiation of new members highlighted the beginning of the new semester. With the playing of basketball and volley- ball, along came the finale of winter, and the birth of spring. What goes better with spring than softball Other spring activities included the spring initiation, tumbling and recrea- tional sports which consisted of darts, badminton, ping pong and shuffleboard. Shirley end Barb taka a jump for th« ball, while teammates Donna and Ton anxiously look on.

As the year drew to a close, we looked back on a year chock full of Theps' doings; performances at the Duluth Play- house found Thespians front row center, assembly programs written and acted out on the Technical building stage, speech meets won, and during February a Thespian play was given. By participating in assemblies, plays and speech meets, members who earned 7} points were awarded the Thespian letter, a mask of Comedy and Tragedy embossed on a blue and white emblem. The club meetings were called to order by President. Bill Amis; committees were headed by Vice-President. Mary Bcl- fiori; reading the minutes w?as Secretary, Kathy O Brien. in charge of club dues was Ronnie Goldberg, Treasurer and order was kept by Sergeant-at-Arms, Tom Parish. Pat Luoma repre- sented Ro-Hi-Theps at Student Council meetings. Throughout the year dessert meetings, parties and busi- ness meetings were attended by all Roosevelt High Thespians.

Tri Hi as the name indicates, the Tri Hi Club celebrated year with the same purpose in mind; to promote Gail. Renee, Jean, Linda. Jeanette. Mary, and a few of Tri Hi's many new initiates, take their oath to be loyal members of their club. Under the supervision of Miss Moberg, the offices were filled by; Michele Hansen. President; Kay Parish. Vice-President; Kay Marchetti. Treasurer and Patty Cron, Secretary. The Sergeant-at-Arms was Sharon Johnson; Representa- tive to Student Council, Kathryn Johnson and the scrapbook chairmen were Sue Carey and Betty VonderHaar. Starting the year off with Homecoming, Tri Hi placed second with its original victory bug” composed of sheets and club members. Its slogan was We've got the Victory Bug”. After a decisive battle, the girls finally won and sponsored the Turnabout along with the other girls’ clubs. Searching for a candidate, the girls of Tri Hi chose Denny Serson with the slogan, Don't Be a Menace, Vote for Dennis. Selling earrings before Christmas was the chief money-making project, along with shoe bags and scarfs. There will always be memories of the splash parties, especially the Christmas party when the members exchanged gifts. To bring to an end of the get-togethers” of the Senior girls, the Tri Hi underclassmen sponsored the annual Senior Girls Tea. The grand finale of the club came at the spring banquet held at the Coates Hotel. Tears came to many eyes when we reminisced over the three years of membership in Tri Hi.

Heading the club this year through one of its most successful years were President. Imogene Miller; Vice-President, Virginia Jenia; Secretary, Sharon Altobelli; Treasurer, Carol Pogorelc and Advisor, Miss Amy Beckstrom. One of the first successes of the club was their float, De-Feet the In- dians , winning first prize in the homecoming parade. This was the second year in a row that Entre Nous had won first prize for their float. Other projects of the Entre Nous members were decorating the halls for homecoming and the selling of Christmas cards. When the annual Turnabout Dance came around Entre Nous had another success when their candidate Bob Isaacson was Miss Beckstrom, Entre Nous advisor, pours at the an- nual Christmas tea. sponsored by the three girls’ clubs. crowned “King of Autumn ”. In December, Entre Nous, along with Tri-Hi and Hae-W held the tradi- tional Christmas Tea for all senior high girls. At Christmas, the girls held a party and gave gifts to four needy children of grade school age. Entre Jackie. Lorraine, and Marilyn do a rollicking commercial at the Entre Nous pep assembly.

Hae-W started the year with a new purpose in view. An eight-fold program built on this thought was written and added to their constitution. The folds are: Sportsmanship, Religion, Occupational Help, Fine Arts, Community Service, Social, Athletics and Self Improvement. Every month s enter- tainment was devoted to carrying out a different fold by speak- ers, or the members themselves. At one of the year’s bigger social events, the Turnabout, Hae-W sponsored Bill Heikkila as their king candidate. At Thanksgiving and Christmas, Hae-W members made up a food basket which was sent to needy families, a tradition that has been established throughout the years. The club s income came mainly from the sale of candy Easter eggs, Christmas ribbons and pom-pons. Miss Marian Fairbanks, the new advisor, led the girls to the end of an enjoyable year that closed with a beautiful ban- quet. The officers for this year were: Nancy Anderson, presi- dent; Judy Strong, vice-president; Marilyn Matt, secretary; Pat Anderson, treasurer; Pat McBride, representative-at-large. FRONT ROW.

As president Dor- othy Lundeen called the meetings to order, sergeant-at-arms, Tom Carey made sure the members of the Spanish and French club kept order. Club advisor, Mr. Turner, new to RHS this year, helped Tom also. Meetings were held every fourth Wednesday evening in the social room. Usually lunch and a program were prepared for the evening. Bake sales at Ketola's and a Halloween Party, were only a few of the many things the Spaench club participated in dur- ing the 1957-58 school year. Six officers were elected, including a president, a vice- president for both the Spanish and French students, a secre- tary, a treasurer, a representative to the student council and a sergeant-at-arms. This year a representative to the student council was also elected. Those elected for the 58-59 year were revealed at the annual banquet held at the Coates Hotel in May. Au revoir, direy-vous!!

League Disca Rama was the theme for the annual water show of 1957. Hit tunes of the century were used to set the back- ground for the original routines and costumes put together by the girls. The members of the club developed many new tricks in synchronized swimming through the year by attending the AAU Swim meets in Stillwater, Minnesota and the meets held in Ely, which helped them in extending their interests. The officers of the club are Patricia McBride, president; Judie Abrahamson, vice-president; Judy Strong, secretary; Katherine Wiklund, treasurer; and advisor, Mrs. Lenette K Mallettc. Fourteen efficient students assisted Miss Wadd, high school librarian, in the RHS library this year. Assistance was volunteered by the students and was not credited, but they all found it very self-rewarding. Most of these students volunteered their services during their library periods. These students did such jobs as checking books in and out, finding magazines, shelving books and many other helpful services. Whenever students were unable to find what they wished, Miss Wadd or one of her cheerful library helpers was always in the library to assist them. Library 50 ... L®T 1°, Joann Sendne� .

N H S Twice a year, a committee composed of teachers elects students within the top half of their class to become members of the National Honor Society. This organization has clubs throughout the United States that enroll junior and senior high school students. Roosevelt High School is proud of its twelve members who were elected because of outstanding scholarship, character, leadership and service. Jim Rowbottom served as President, Dorothy Lundeen as Vice-President, Nancy Anderson. Secre- tary and Pat McBride, Treasurer. We salute Mr. Truax, who served as advisor and helped to make all of National Honor Society's endeavors successful. A prosperous year of work ended in June 19 8 for the Junior Red Cross. . . C11 This voluntary group, with the help of advisor tllen Korpy, started the year with a kick-off assembly. The as- sembly presented resulted in the enrollment of 9 r r ot RHS. Making favors for the local infirmary, filling a chest to send abroad, and making a correspondence album were among other projects completed by the group, among other projects completed by the group. The students who contributed the most time and effort in JRC were rewarded by trips to JRC Training Centers throughout the state. The increased knowledge they brought back will help make future years in JRC even more prosperous. Red Cross FRONT ROW FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: Marcia Baumgartnar.

Many of the School’s problems were set before the student council leaders to solve. Represent- ing their fellow classmates was a tremendous responsibility for every member. For the past two years the council has sent two representa- tives to the state Student Council Convention. This year Mary Kay Hoffman and Randy Hedican were chosen to attend the convention at Thief River Falls. Here, helpful advice to im- prove our student council was gained. Officers for the past year were: Frank Chiaverini, Presi- dent; James Rowbottom, Vice-President; Mary Kay Hoffman, Secretary; and Elizabeth VonderHaar, Treasurer. Student Council Pep Council Pep! Athletes! Cheerleaders! Sportsmanship! These make up the Pep Council of RHS. Football homecoming turned out a success and was the biggest task of the year.

These girls practiced fourth hour every day in the hand hall. Their long hours of practicing led to a triumphant twirl team which re- ceived wild plaudits from its rooters after an exciting display of baton prowess. Throughout the course of the year our high school hi- steppers led parades, performed at the athletic games and tournaments and led the drill team. Thanks girls, you will always be a part of our memory. Clip, clap, clip, clap, (wait) clip, clap! Everyone will re- member this yell as one in which the boys proved their voice strength. Four new cheerleaders were elected to the squad this year. They were: Betty Bodovinitz and Cheryl Pauletti. sophomores; Judi Abrahamson, a junior; and Mary Belfiori, a senior.

Choir director, Mr. Donald Colton, had a full schedule during this, his second year at Roosevelt High school. Juniors and seniors composed the mixed choir during the first semester. An experimental group of a sophomore girls’ chorus and a sophomore boys’ chorus was also conducted suc- cessfully. Fall preparations for the Christmas program included a new method of “sight-singing in which notes are Hashed on a screen for quick recognition by the students. The traditional Christmas concert was a presentation of Bach cantatas with the combined efforts of the choir and the Roosevelt High school orchestra. Mr. Colton and the choir traveled to neighboring Gilbert for the 19 8 Music Festival during the second semester. Guest soloist. Allen Donns of UMD, was featured at the spring concert. The choir and Mr. Donns presented the Pro- logue to Mephistofoli” by Boito for this annual event. Mr. Geary helps out Dave and Julie Ann on a difficult piece of music at orchestra practice on Tuesday nights. Orchestra The RHS orchestra, directed by Keith Davis, provided most of the music for formal functions during this past year. Every Tuesday night, members contributed time and talent to re- hearsals. The results were evident at plays, which were supplied with suitable background music, and at the annual spring concert. The im- pressiveness of commencement was largely due to the music the orchestra played for the processional and recessional. Many of the members took part in the string ensemble, which play- ed for gatherings, such as banquets and meetings of businessmen's or- ganizations where the full orchestra could not play. Three teachers deserve the credit for helping to develop the skill and musicianship of the orchestra. These three are Mr. Davis. Mr. Humpal and Mr. Geary. Those of us who have been a part of the or- chestra are glad that we had this opportunity to come to know and appreciate the value of music. Larry, as wall as other orchestra members, diligently pours over his musical scores at orchestra practice. LEFT VIOLINS—FIRST ROW. LEFT TO RIGHT: Mr. Geary. Tom Rykken. Julie Ann Nimtz. David Neff.

Though they took many band trips throughout the range, the one considered most exciting by the band members was the trip to Minneapolis for the State Fair. Here they received $200 for appearing. Probably the most outstanding project of the year was the band show. Music 1957 sponsored by all band members. Don Jacoby, star trumpet player from Chicago, appeared as guest on the program. Students from the surrounding area also appeared as guests on the program. Through the efforts of band members and their ticket sales, the auditorium was filled to capacity. This was the first time any such program had been attempted by the High School Band. The band has de- cided to make the band show a project and tradition from this year on. and hope their success will continue.

Journalism was a lot of fun, and a lot of hard work, too, which makes this subject one of the most interesting in the Roosevelt curriculum. Most of the course involves work on the ’ Star”, and the Rohian , two items that are as much a part of life at RHS as anything. � back- second Busiest of the 210 mob was Sharon Johnson, editor of the Rohian, who di- rected the terrific project of producing this annual publication. A silent part- ner, Mary Lee Nelson, was indispens- able on the editing of the Star”. The Journalism class worked on the Rohian during Christmas vacation, when a lot of progress was made. The class also tried its hand at sales- manship, by selling advertising for the Star”, and for programs at the football games.

Dur- ing football games coffee, hot dogs and candy were sold. At basketball games, a pop concession and a check room were operated. Sponsoring the basketball homecoming was the highlight of the year for the club as they picked their own queen to reign over the pep assembly and game festivities. Also sponsored by the V club was the annual Lettermen’s Ball held Decem- ber 13 at which couples danced to the music of Jimmy Baldrica’s Orchestra. Advisor of the club was L. L. Michels.

Jackie, and Michele look over last minute duties lor the big homecoming festivities. Amid cheers and screams of joy, Kathryn Johnson was crowned Queen of the 1957 football Homecoming. It had been a tense moment as Gene Carlsen hesitatingly gazed from Kathy O'Brien and Bruce Anderson to Sharon Johnson and Denny Hayes; started toward Judy Arnberg and Steven Hunter and finally back to Kathryn. She was presented the tradi- tional scroll, football and a brilliant bouauet of chrysanthemums. Enthu- siastic RHS students flooded the stage as tnc program came to a close. All week, RHS had been buzzing with anticipation as the day drew near. Entre Nous members spent an exhaustive weekend decorating the halls. How well we remember the radio someone smuggled in and the cokes and the gay laughter of our fellow members during those long hours. Every club held several secret sessions decorating their float. The forPthe entmCmberS Canvasscd Roosevclt hi£h selling Homecoming pins Scalp the Indians' provided a theme that sparked a number of original and unusual ideas for the Homecoming floats entered in the parade. Among these were Hae-W's ' Scalp the Indians ' quartet. GAA's float and Tri-Hi s Victory Bug. ' Entre Nous captured first prize with their theme, De-Feet the Indians” to remain undefeated for their second season Tri-Hi took second place and Hae-W, third. Queen Kathryn and her attendants headed the parade in gleaming convertibles. In another car were the RHS cheerleaders. Mid-parade the Drill Team followed. Roosevelt s superb Marching Band was a rousing attraction during the Homecoming festivities.

Homecoming ’57 During half time, the Drill Team, led by Jeanne Kobylinski and Patty Cron, dazzled admiring spectators as they demonstrated their skill. Flashing white bucks, blue slacks, and white shirts, topped off by blue and white beanies, complimented their formations. With infinite ease, they tackled many difficult arrangements. Her Majesty set the bonfire ablaze at the 6:30 pep fest before the game. Again the bonfire had been saved from arsonists of neighboring schools by the posting of a guard of several RHS boys. Also during half time. Queen Kathryn and her attendants were escorted onto the field and introduced to the crowd. Then they were driven around the stadium several times before the second half began. The prize-winning Entre Nous float encircled the field with Pat Luoma in De-Feet and JoAnn Koroshec vaunting her ax like a warrior. Newly-elected cheerleaders Nancy Bodovinitz, Mary Belfiori, Judy Abrahamson, Sue Johnson, Cheryl Pauletti, and Betty Bodovinitz, outdid themselves during the coronation ceremony and at the game. Their en- thusiasm and pep added greatly to the homecoming spirit. Despite the heroic efforts of the team, cheerleaders and fans, the Grand Rapids Indians managed to De-Feet the Devils” when they push- ed past Virginia for a 12-6 win. Following the game.

The moment I’ve waited for, ever since I first heard of a Turn- about, finally came. For every girl, this traditional dance is one of the big moments gf the year. It’s her one big chance to ask that certain someone she’s been admiring from afar, to go with her. Tri-Hi, Bntre Nous and Hae-W went all out in decora- tions. The colored leaves, pumpkins, and waving corn- stalks really carried out the theme of Autumn Leaves.’’ Can't you just imagine seventy-eight couples dancing to the slow rhythm of Baldrica's orchestra? But the high point of the evening came when the crowning of the king occurred. Entre Nous sponsored Bob Isaacson; Tri Hi, Dennis Scrson and Hae-W, Bill Heikkila. Toast mi stress, Sharon Johnson, finally announced the big moment, and Bob Isaacson was crowned King of Hearts ’. What a grand moment! But now the lights have lowered and the evening is over. My dress is hung in the closet and my shoes are off, so my feet don't hurt anymore. But I’ll remember this October 25, Dear Diary, I'll remember it in my heart if not in these words forever.

On February 22, at 8:13 p.m., the curtain went up on the second annual Ro-Hi Thespian play of Brandon Thomas' rollicking farce Charley’s Aunt . Ever since the beginning of time, man playing the part of a woman has been high humor. In this play the humor became hilarity in the part of Lord Fancourt Babbcrly, played su- perbly by Bill Amis. Babbs was forced into the part of Charley’s rich aunt who failed to arrive in time for a luncheon party which Charley and Jack Chesney, (fellow colleagues of Babbs played by Jim Welsh and Joe Ketola respectively) had planned for their sweethearts Kitty, Kathy O'Brien, and Amy, Michele Hansen.

These beautiful decorations were quickly brought back to normal when the Rockwoods and their son Mattieboy played by Ronald Brown, Sue Carey and Joe Ketola, returned from their journey to the west and found the Gage family living in their home. The Gages’ and Rockwoods’ battle over the ownership of the deed resulted in a hilarious comedy. The supporting class included: Mary Vitzthum, Jane Koske. Kathy O'Brien, Bill Amis.

A definite improvement over last year’s squad and an improvement in every game as the season progressed, de- scribes the 1957 edition of the Virginia High School Blue Devils. For the first game of the season the Devils traveled to International Falls and received a 27-0 defeat that was closer than the score indicated. Virginia then followed with their second straight loss; Greenway doing it 26-7. The Blue Devils broke into the victory column by trouncing the Chisholm Blue Streaks 33-12 in a game that saw five different Devils score touchdowns. The following week the Grand Rapids Indians dampened RHS homecom- ing festivities bv sneaking bv with a 12-6 victory. The Virginians climbed back on the winning trail by romping over the Ely Timberwolves 31 7. Chuck Elliot sparked the team with two touchdowns and a conversion. For the final game of the season the Blue and Whites journeyed to Evelcth with hopes of spoiling the ' Bears” homecoming celebrations. This desire was not fulfilled as the hometown boys finished on the long end of 20-7 score. Frank Chiaverini lead the team throughout the year and was named to All-Conference second team.

This was one of the better units afloat on the range. Instrumental in the business of winning their events, a vital objective in swimming meets, were Bruce Bergman in the 100 yard backstroke—doing good time in his belly side up specialty; Dick Forsman in the 100 yard breast- stroke; Bruce Anderson in the 50-100 yard free style, and Jon Isaacson, a sophomore, whose possibilities in the butterfly event are astronomical. Isaacson, a scholarly looking chap, owns one of the best butterfly strokes in the area, and with two years ahead of him, could conceivably be- come even better. Also winning with considerable regularity was the Medley Relay quar- tette of Don Wicklund, Dick Forsman, Team Captain Tom Parish, and spectacular Jon Isaacson. The seniors on the squad, departing with the class of '58, were Tom Parish, Bruce Anderson, Dick Forsman, Leonard Stone, and Bob Isaacson, all of whom ultimately contributed towards the team's success. Coaching the team was L. L. Michels, a real cagey veteran in the tank wars. The terrific turnout of underclassmen points to a bright horizon for VHS swimming teams. FRONT LEFT TO RIGHT: Don Koski.

Hockey The 1957-58 edition of the Virginia Blue Devil Hockey team produced the finest record to date since the sport was revived in 1953. The Blue Devil Pucksters compiled eight wins as against nine losses to establish Virginia as somewhat of a hockey power in this area. Ely was the first victim of the Devils by a 6-1 score. The Blue and Whites’’ then lost to International Falls; took Duluth Denfeld; fell to Green- way and Duluth East and dropped Hibbing by a 6-2 score. The Blue Devils went on with a win over Grand Rapids; losses to Eveleth and International Falls, and victories against Grand Rapids, Ely and Cloquet. Hibbing, Greenway and Eveleth edged out Virginia to end season play. The Blue Devils defeated Hibbing 3-0 in the District tournament and lost out to Duluth East in the Regional by the identical score of 3-0. Rod Politano, Dick Fossum, Co-captains Don Niininen and Bill Pepelnjak, Frank Chiaverini and Goalie Steve Hunter were standouts for freshman year coach John Bcste.

Our coach is shown hare with co-captains Joe Sklasz and Dale Hansen. Basketball One of the finest records ever posted in VHS' basket- ball history was recorded by this year’s 1957-1958 BLUE DEVILS. With 20 wins and only 2 losses, Virginia was recog- nized as one of the strongest teams in the state. Their only defeats came from the Grand Rapids Indians, a surprising upset in mid-season, and a last second thriller at the hands of Cloquet for the Region 7 Championship. The ' Blue and Whites won 16 and lost only one to win the DISTRICT 27 and IRON RANGE CONFERENCE crowns. In district tournament play they eliminated Evelcth by a resounding 75-20 score and went on to defeat Gilbert in the semi-finals and a scjueeker against Tower to walk off with the tournament trophy.

Michels, coach; Wayne Johnson, assistant coach. Following three consecutive District 27 track championships, 1957 found the Blue Devil thin-clads in third place on the charts at the season's end. Suffering heavily from the graduation of their key point winners of 56”, it was obviously a rebuilding year for coach Michels’ hard working crew. Considering lack of experience, the Devils came through beautifully, paced by broad jumping Dick Fos- sum and Speedy Gene Carlsen, who finished first in their respective events in the district tournament. Carlsen won in the 440, being clocked at 53.6 seconds, and Fos- sum leaped 19 feet 10 inches in the broad jump. Also placing for Virginia were Bruce Bergman and Clarence Stenroos in the mile. The top individual performance of the season was beyond any doubt the broad jumping of Fossum who advanced to the state tournament. There were others, too, who earned points for the Devils’ cause, but departed with the class of 57” — Dan Lind, pole vault; Pat Lanin, 880; Fred Sorgenfrei and Don Mattson, hurdles; Wally Con- ner, discus; and Galen Squires in the broad jump. Credit should also be given to the many trackmen who worked out with the squad, developing their athletic talents toward bring- ing future championship Trophies to the halls of Roosevelt High. Track Pouring on the steam, Don Mattson leads the way while Chuck Elliot makes an attempt to overtake his teammate. Bill Mattson uses all the spring he can muster as he hurdles his si«-foot five inch frame over the crossbar. With a grunt and a groan. Dick Fossum flies horizontally through the air to win the broad- jump event. 83 Tennis 1957 found Coach Emil Erickson’s Blue Devil tennis team rebuilding after experi- encing heavy casualties from graduation. The boys were unopposed in District 27 with the other schools not fielding teams. Upon having tucked away an automatic district title, the devils found rough going in the regional tournament where they were completely wiped out. Winning letters were Tom Rowbot- tom, Melvin Frisch, Jim Pellow, and Pete Johnson. Jim and Pete both have left the scene, but '’58’’ will bring back lettermen Rowbottom and Frisch to make things miserable for all challengers. Others on the team were Maurice Johnson and Curt Thomley. Jim Pallow waits for tho ball with de- term.nation as Pete Johnson envies his fine style. Golf Golf was a productive sport for Roose- velt High in 07 with seven lads, who wield iron and wood, receiving mono- grams. The Devils waltzed easily through Dis- trict 27 competition, and gained four berths in the Region 7 tournament with Fred Belay (76), Tom Vehring (80), Tom Urick (86), and Bill Lahti (87) teeing off. Vehring survived the regional engage- ment, and went on to the state tournament, where he finished in the middle of the final listings. Other golfers were Richard Kullberg, Tom Carey, and Toby Nigro. Talent-wise, the future looks to be ter- rific with so many underclassmen turning in superior performances. Fred Belav aims across tha groan. Just a slight tap—Dick Kull- 84 barg is only inchas away.
