Mr. Pegelow also teaches science 8-9, drivers' education and health. i Vocational Courses Prepare Students For Future Careers Courses in home economics, mechanical and vo- cational agriculture and industrial arts are probably the most interesting for many students. There’s never a dull moment in a class where a boy is re- pairing his own tractor, making his family's new bookcase or testing the soil of the family farm. And most girls are more than interested in a class where they study about and practice the role of the homemaker. CENTER RIGHT, RODNEY LARSON and W. Hagen put a tractor back together.

Smiles and screams of delight swept over the audience as Liz Skogberg. popular senior cheerleader, was crowned Home- coming queen. The Thursday evening coro- nation ceremony ended the suspense which had been steadily mounting during Home- coming week. LOWER CENTER, a school favorite. Wally Hagen, receives the King’s scepter from junior cheerleader, J. Schwinghammer as T. Hamm re. Q. Peterson, and P. Holt applaud approvingly. Keith Bjorndal. accompanied by Mr. Joseph B. Olson, played Purcell's Trumpet Volun- tary as the royal procession entered the auditorium. The football players formed an honor guard through which the Homecoming royalty marched to the beautifully deco- rated stage. The royal party was enter- tained by musical numbers and a skit. Mike Mahlum. 1964 graduate, spoke for the alumni. Following the ceremony a large crowd gathered around the bonfire blazing sky- ward. symbolizing hopes for a Viking vic- tory. The bonfire was unusually successful this year because some enterprising senior boys supplemented the sincere but inade- quate efforts of the freshmen. There were the usual cheers and pep talks accompanied by cracking chestnuts tossed into the fire by enthusiastic grade schoolers. The weather could not have been more ideal; it was a glowing autumn day for the afternoon parade. Led by the SHHS march- ing band and followed by colorful class floats, the royal float, decorated in pink and silver, moved through the town at stately pace. LOWER LEFT.

LEFT, these are the girls who entertained the royal court with a humorous skit: K. Tomes. R. Skrukrud, C. Anderson, M. Kvistero, and S. Kingstrom. One memory brushed over lightly is the disappointing outcome of the Homecoming game, which the Vikings lost to Stewart. UPPER LEFT, seniors K. Hamilton and L. Sagnes dance away the blues following the game. The formal portrait of King Wally and Queen Liz will recall a multitude of memories for their classmates and friends. Yes, Homecoming is smiles and tears, tradition and memories, a touch of nostalgia. 21 SH Football Season Is Good And Bad Winning the opening game 6-0 from Clara City broke the last year's Vikings' losing streak and launched the team on what seemed to be a success- ful season. However, after downing Clara City and Maynard in non-conference tilts, the gridders ran into trouble with injuries and failed to score in the win-column. Wally Hagen, Gary Hopkins, and Mike Knutson, rugged members of the squad, were honored by 212 loop officials and coaches when Hagen was elected to the All-212 Conference Team as defen- sive halfback; Hopkins and Knutson received honor- able mentions as defensive linebacker and offensive tackle.

Conquering Cagers Defeat Rival Renville It may happen only once in six years or so, but when it does, it makes headlines. With a deadly zone press the Vikings, in their second clash with Renville, started off with a bang, gained confidence and composure, and settled down to play a good game. The local cagers led through the whole game and had a good margin at half-time. Walter Hagen was leading scorer with 27 points; Charles Holmgren was second with 18; Larry Sagnes was third with 13. Hagen set a new school record by scoring 46 points against Stewart. The previous record was 44 points scored by John Eitrem in 1957. In addition to setting a new scoring record, Hagen was named to the WCCO Prep Parade Team of the Week, and was the highest scorer in the 212 conference. He missed the 1,000 point mark for his career by only 25 points. A fine, unsel- fish team spirit helped Wally to make use of his great ability. • 25 Wrestlers Place Third In District Coach Red Fostvedt's wrestling team ranked third in the district tournament behind impressive Hutchinson and Olivia grapplers. TOP LEFT, Steve Williams receives his first place trophy. Gary Kortgaard and Mike Knut- son placed second and Jerry Schneider, third. Knutson had an impressive 19-0 record going into the tournament.

Sarry Sagnes will be greatly missed among the team’s graduating seniors. Leading the team with a . 333 batting average, Sagnes was also an effective starting pitcher and one of the best first basemen the school has ever had. In a heartbreaking loss to the 212 champions, Danube, Sag pitched the team to a 3-2 score, giving up two walks and only two hits. Steve Williams, promising junior, batted . 305. With five experienced ball players graduating, next year's team will rely on Williams' big bat and strong pitching arm and Olson’s, Peterson’s and Knutson’s fielding.

Paper And Yearbook Reflect Moods Of School, Student Body School is activities and studies, disappointments and achievements, fun and frustra- tion. The yearbook tries to capture these and project the many moods of the school through pictures. But pictures are not enough. Copy, re- written and revised, makes these pictures come to life. Six times a year, the edi- tors and staff of the VIKING SCRIPT write, type, paste and arrange dummies, and type stencels to put out an enjoyable issue of the school paper. Again this year, this responsi- bility was shouldered by the junior class and their advisor, Mr. Wolf. LOWER LEFT, editors C. Hov- da and K. Nelson look up from revising a dummy sheet.

FHA, FFA Build Better Citizens Through their respective activities the Fu- ture Homemakers of America and the Future Farmers of America work to make better women and men of the young people enrolled in the clubs. The FHA, with the motto, Toward New Horizons, plans its monthly meetings around objectives set by the national and state branch- es of the organization. Leisure Time--Con- structive Time; Neighbors Near and Far; Jobs, Careers and You; and Good Family Re- lations through Communications were stressed at the meetings.

New Band Uniforms Arrive They’re here! Our uniforms are here! were words circulating around the school at 2:30 on December 21, the afternoon of the annual Christmas concert. Then began the rush of trying on, fitting and alterations. Assisted by Mr. Grams and Mrs. Northouse, Mr. Olson issued the uniforms during seventh hour in the music room, where or- ganized pandemonium reigned. Once issued, the uniforms were taken home and quickly hemmed up or let down. At 7:55 that evening, the ninety-one band members, proudly wearing their new uni- forms, marched into the gym for their Christmas concert. Proper intonation is very important in musical performance so each horn must be carefully tuned. RIGHT, band president J. Kramer and vice-president K. Nelson tune the trombones. This year, Mr. Olson introduced a new friend to the music students, the metronome. In band rehearsals, contest groups and solo practices, the metronome bacame a familiar taskmaster. CENTER RIGHT.

Musicians Maintain High Standards Once again this year, both choir and band received superior ratings at the large groups district contest. In the small groups contests Sacred Heart re- ceived more superior ratings than any other school in the district. Students who participated in music ensembles will probably remember the practices more than the performances and practicing in the bus more than per- forming before the judge at state con- tests.

Eliot’s THE ELDER STATESMAN, direc- ted by Miss Loretta Hanson, was presented by the juniors in April. The play centers about the states- man who finds he cannot escape the consequences of his actions; the follies of his youth have become the tragedies of age. R. Hamilton as the elderly statesman, M. Anderson and M. Knutson as people from his past and the rest of the cast effectively portray the moral that the sins of our youth never leave us, no matter what pinnacle of honor we may afterwards scale. THE SATURDAY REVIEW com- mented about the play: It deals with universals, and reveals to us a more human T. S. Eliot than before. LEFT, M. Knutson, R. Hamilton, M. Rude, M. Anderson, C. Johnson and S. Williams in a poignant scene. In November, the seniors, under the able di- rection of Mr. Don Ramstad, presented Gibson’s THE MIRACLE WORKER. A play with the power to wrench the heart was the report of the NEW YORK MIRROR about the Broadway production of this play, and that could well be said about the SHHS production. Liz Skogberg was superb as the deaf, blind and mute Helen Keller, PICTURED RIGHT with mother R. Kortgard. Kathi Hamilton as the miracle work- er, Annie Sullivan, effectively won the audience's affection and confidence. A strong supporting cast and effective use of lighting and stage setting made this play an unforgettable emotional experience.

Misty Moonlight Is Theme Of Annual Banquet — Prom Girls in beautiful formals, boys in their elegant best, a theme, mu- sic, and a banquet of delicious food furnished prom goers with many happy and sometimes tearful memories. The dress-up occasion of the year, coming as it did after hobo day, provided a real contrast in faculty and student attire. BELOW, waitresses L. Hoberg, S. Hamre and N. Enestvedt are seen behind the streamers as guests S. Sheggeby, R. Lerud, P. Kronlokken, R. Holmgren, B. Hoff and W. MacFarlane enjoy a moment of relaxation. RIGHT, J. Schwinghammer and K.

ADMINISTRATION AND CLASSES New Administration Merits Board, Council, Faculty Students of SHHS felt the change in an admin- istration directed by three newcomers. Superin- tendent Vernon Frankfurth and Principal Belmer Fostvedt succeeded Milton Anderson and Orville Wolf respectively, while Peter Freiborg took over the chairmanship of the school board from Bennie Benson. And Staff Support LOWER CENTER, the school board interrupts a meeting to pose for a picture. STANDING are Earl Northouse, Superintendent V. Frankfurth, and Thorvald Holum. SEATED are Louis Berg- strom, clerk; Alfred Santjer; Peter Freiborg, chairman; and Melvin Johnson, treasurer. LOWER LEFT, the Student Council meets in the library. STANDING are P. McKenzie; W. Wil- liams; K. Peterson; W. Kronlokken; and adviser Mr. Fostvedt. SEATED are D. Frank; M. Knut- son, secretary-treasurer; T. Hammre, presi- dent; Q. Skogberg; and M. Nester. Not Pic- tured, D. Peterson, vice-president. RIGHT, secretaries Mrs. Gladys Northouse and Mrs. Marianne Burke confer. Never too busy and always pleasant, Gladys and Marianne are an invaluable aid to both teachers and students. Superintendent Frankfurth, a friendly but businesslike adminis- trator, ably directed school policy and soon became a familiar figure in and out of the office, halls, and classrooms. It is not hard to under- stand why Mr. Frankfurth has cho- sen school administration as a career, for his interest in and affec- tion for young people are apparent in all his relationships. Mr. Fostvedt, affectionately known as Red, was counselor, dis- ciplinarian, and friend to all in SHHS. He handled all matters, pleasant or otherwise, with dispatch and long before the end of the year, had won the respect and confidence of everyone. Special Activities Supplement Studies Learning is more than books,pa- pers; questions and answers. Children learn from things besides teachers and books. Second graders learn about antiques from a trip to the Granite Falls Historical Museum. Fifth graders learn about county government from a trip to the Olivia court house. The sixth graders learn both history and state government from the annual trip to the state capital. LOWER LEFT, Mrs. Lerohl, Mrs. Schjoll and their sixth grade class look wa-a-a-y up to the capitol dome. Each spring a kindergarten class begins to learn what school is all about.
