HOMECMING Vikings Blank Maynard Eagles 20-0 The SHHS Vikings thrilled the large crowd by winning their second homecoming game in a row as they blanked Maynard 20 to 0. That favorite week of the year Homecoming, saw few changes from the tra- ditions long established. This year the annual parade was discontinued, and Clash Day replaced Back to the Fifties Day. For the first time the dancers enjoyed live music. But there were the usual Blue and White Day, Button Day, the ex- citing pep fests, Halls of Ivy, another triumph on the football field—happy memories of another homecoming. The candidates for king and queen were K. Holien, H. Johnson, S. Swartz, B. Erickson, M. Flaata and D. Peterson, all active in school activities and popular with the stu- dent body. The students and faculty voted for king and queen on Mon- day of homecoming week, but the results of that vote were secret until the moment when Howard and Bonnie were crowned. The coronation ceremony was tra- ditional. Trumpeters S. Sunvold, R. Enestvedt and J. Lerohl played the processional and recessional. T. Mahlum was the page. Enter- tainment for the royal court in- cluded a saxophone solo by S. Haug, Autumn Leaves and Somewhere by the girls' ensem- ble and the very funny performance by the Whistlers LEFT: D. Peterson, M.

Guest spea- ker for the program was Sigurd J. Ode, assistant to the Commissioner in the Minnesota Department of Education, St. Paul. Pastor Allen Monson gave the invocation and benediction. Special music was provided by the high school band and Mrs. Charles Pegelow who sang Bless This House. The program for the new addition began in the summer of 1972. The bond elec- tion for $400,000 was carried in Decem- ber of that year. Some difficulty was encountered in April when the low bid was far over the amount of the bonds. But in June, when bids were again taken, the low bid was within the al- lowed amount. Architect was Kenneth H. Walijarvi. WSW Construction, Willmar, was the general contractor; Hoberg Brothers the mechanical and Barr's Electric, Ortonville, the electrical contractors. Shortage of various supplies caused many delays, but finally the dream came true. The new gymnasium was a reality. The first public use of the building was October 24 when the girls' basketball team defeated Renville. ABOVE LEFT: A view of the new addi- tion taken from the south. The old building in the picture is the cafeteria with the music department on second floor. Connecting the old building to the new is the commons area, then the gymnasium, and finally the stage. ABOVE RIGHT: R. Ashburn is shown working out on the popular weight ma- chine housed behind the stage. RIGHT: A capacity crowd enjoyed the Renville- Sacred Heart games on February 14. The local A team lost, but the B team won their game. 8 O' DRAMA —DECLAM i Ms Gens Directs Speech Activities Speech activities, under the direction of Diane Gens, included two plays presented locally and declamation, in which students participated in several contests. In December a junior high cast staged the one-act play, The King Who Loved Lollipops. In April the senior high drama club presented the hilarious three-act farce, See How They Run. S. Larson and C. Ulrickson represented SHHS in distrjct declam competition, Sandy win- ning first alternate in non-original oratory, Cindy winning second alternate in serious drama.

It was the Vikings' second winning season in a row. One of the most memorable games of the season was the Clara City game which the Vikings won in a double overtime. H. Johnson, co-captain for 1974, was named to the West 212 Conference squad and to the WCCO Team of the Week and voted by the squad members as most valuable and best offen- sive player. Although K. Holien, co-captain for 1974, was kept from playing much of the season by a knee injury, he and W. Peterson were voted best defensive players. Statisticians for the season were Pat Knutson, Bonnie Erickson, Laurie Krogstad, Dianne Larson and Mary Wolf. BELOW RIGHT: Assistant Coach R. Miller and Head Coach T.

But the most exciting game of all was the 55-49 win over Renville when the girls' teams initiated the new SHHS gymnasium before a capacity crowd. Kelly Swartz and Rita Andree were named to the 212 Conference team. R. Andree was voted M.V.P. by her teammates; P. Knutson, M.I.P. Co-captains for the year were R. Andree and P. Knapper.

In addition to the basketball program, a volleyball team was organized with P. Knutson and L. Krogstad co-captains. Twenty-two girls went out for track and competed in meets at Maynard, Marshall, and Buffalo Lake, gaining experience and placing. Cheerleaders continued to develop new formations and executed cheers with almost professional skill. The emphasis on gymnastics was helpful in their coordination.

In the Cosmos invitational tournament during Christmas, the Vikings placed second. Co-captains for the year were Paul Knapper and Galen Seehusen. Most valuable was Galen Seehusen and Randy John- son was most improved. Seehusen's career high, 30 points, came in the Silver Lake game. BELOW: The A team pictured with Coach Munsch, S. Ashburn, D.

BASKETBALL I Young Cagers Thrill Fans In Close Games Although their 5 and 13 record doesn't sound good, the B squad played some exciting games. They lost to May- nard by one point in a double overtime. In the Bird Island game, Sacred Heart came back in the second half to take the lead, only to lose by one point on a last-second shot. But the high point of the year came when they beat Renville here late in the season. Pictured LEFT are the B team basketball players. BACK: R. Beekman, S Sietsema, D. Thielen, Todd Fostvedt, V.

The spirit and cooperation of the seventh and eighth grade teams were excellent. Probably the most gratifying pari of the season for the boys and the coach was the Bird Island Invitational at the season's end where they beat Ren- ville 28-21 for third place.

Theodore Thorsen, director of bands at Bemidji State College, was the adjudicator. These are his comments about the band's performance. Your hard work and attention to details paid off. Fine train- ing and fine attention to needs of music. Twelve band members were selected to play in the district band. They were B. Erick- son, D. Larson, Cheryl Ramstad, S. Sunvold, R. Enestvedt, M. Gunter, D. Peterson, Pam Knapper, Paul Knapper, P. Hamre, Kathy Johnson, Dale Malacek. Majorettes, Pom Pom girls, flag twirlers, and banner carriers are pictured FAR LEFT. BACK: D. Kingstrom, K.

MUSIC Pam Wins State Band Membership Pam Knapper was selected as a mem- ber of the All-State Band for the second year In a row, a first for SHHS musicians. She and Bonnie Erickson were also named to Who's Who Among American High School Musicians. Only two musicians from each school are chosen for this honor. Pam is pictured TOP LEFT, recei- ving honors at the spring concert. The Christmas operatta is the high- light for the elementary music pro- gram. Each pupil in grades 1-6 is involved in the operetta which every year draws capacity crowds to both performances. Scrooge's Christmas was presented this year w ith Van Peterson playing Scrooge. FAR LEFT CENTER: T. Reinke and V. Peterson go back into Scrooge's past. BOT- TOM: The Cratchet family enjoys a game of blind man's bluff with their Uncle Scrooge. Being in the band involves a lot of practice, time, and dedication. The band plays at all the home football games and this year alternated be- tween basketball games and wrestling matches. They march in the Memo- rial Day parade, perform at the Christ- mas and spring concerts, and this year they played for the dedication of the new gymnasium-auditorium. LEFT: The band is pictured at the Memorial Day program. TOP CENTER: N. Erickson plays the suspended cym- bals during the band's pre-game performance. Bonnie Erickson and Paul Knapper are the outstanding musicians for 1975. Bonnie earned a total of 36 star ratings; Paul earned 28 during their high school years. They are pictured receiving their trophies from Mr. Olson at the spring concert. Their names will be engraved on the plaque in the music room. 39 CHOIR Musicians Break Former Record A proud Mr. Olson announced that his musicians had broken another school record by earning sixty-three stars this year. They received two at the large groups con- test, thirty-six at the district small groups contest, and twenty-five at the state- regional. It took alot of inspiration, many hours of hard work, and much practice to top last year's seemingly unbeatable record of fifty-seven stars. BELOW: Vocalists who earned star ratings at the small groups music contests are pictured receiving recognition at the spring concert. One of the most popular vocal groups is the boys ensemble.
