DALE ROCK, junior high science te acher, aims to stimulate interest in science and to stress the importance of a general knowledge of our environment and the world in which we live. CIE CE A D MATH MR. JOHN STONE, the chemistry and physics teacher, makes this statement: Science affects the lives of everyone in some degree. A knowl- edge of chemistry helps one understand life in its fullest me aningg a knowledge of physics helps one to understand the forces of nature and their relationship to our environment. EXTE IVE MR. JOEL PERKINS teaches biology to the sophomores. Biology, a study of animal and plant life, broadens a student's View on the sciences of life. Laboratory activities include microscopic and macroscopic study of living organisms. Students make collections of insects and keep a comprehensive notebook. in MR. VERNON VOTH QLEFTJ and MR. RONALD MISKOVIEC QRIGHTQ teach seventh and eighth grades mathematics that is adapted to provide a comprehensive base for mathematics in future courses. Using modern math techniques and technical vocabulary, they em- phasize understanding of concepts rather than rote memory of meth- ods. For example, students study other numeration systems in order to help them understand more fully the principles of the decimal system. TR CTIO COPE i 1 lVlRS. lvlARlON SCHULZ te aches higher math with the purpose of preparing students for future education in engineering and sciences of math. She says, To be able to communicate fluently in today's modern world of business and science, one needs the language of mathematics and related techniques ,f-XM, Students in MR. ROGER Ol.SON'S room 211 may be studying algebra, higher algebra or business math. Freshmen in algebra learn basic concepts which give them greater understanding of the many arithmetical processes previously learned and lay the groundwork for advanced math classes. Students in higher algebra pursue a course that adds new concepts which will broaden their stature in math by enabling Q-'S-...ss them to develop thought processes essential to cri- reers based on these concepts. Subjects of a practical nature such as savings. interest checking accounts and installment buying are taught in business math. MR. WILLIAM HAMIVIES teaches seventh grade social studies, a study of American history, which becomes a fascinating story of adventure, conflict, and growth of a great nation. QCIAL TUDIE TEACHE AMERICAN HI TORY AN RE P0 IBILITIE OF CITIZE HIP MR. CORWIN KRONENBERG teaches civics, a course designed to teach government on local, state and federal levels. Since government of a democracy is dependent upon an educated and informed citizenry, the responsi- bilities of citizenship, as well as the privileges, are stressed. The late president, john F. Kennedy has very aptly summed up the meaning of citizenship in his statement to Congress, Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country. 12 American history in the tenth grade is taught by MR. LA VERN GILBERTSON. The course is a continuation of the same subject matter as taught in the seventh grade with a greater emphasis on a world approach. MR. THOMAS LAWRENCE teaches world history, a course considered essential for the understanding of men, nations and their cultural backgrounds. The study of Christianity as opposed to Communism, the Reformation, World Wars and their effects should make students aware that civilized people should make attempts to settle dif- ferences through reason not violence in this global space age. MR. EUGENE YANKE is the instructor in the senior classes of social problems, which stresses the unbiased appraisal of the contemporary problems of today's society and evaluates the U. S. in world perspective and policy in relation to other powers of the world. Study in the area of the active role as an adult citizen in the American way of life becomes meaningful to seniors. '39 15 r K VW . JW? fi ,Qi U Wei WY if --...,,,,,.-I MR. DEAN WEBER in his tenth and eleventh grade classes of English encouraged originality and creati- vity as well as perfection in the form of themes students Wrote. They studied and enjoyed the styles of writing of different authors. TEACHER QF MRS. ELEANOR KOHNER, teacher of junior, Senior and College Prep English is lecturing here, perhaps on the Elizabethan Theater. Chaucer, Shakespe are, and other writers of English literature became both meaningful and interesting through audio-visual devices. Trips to the Guthrie were most enjoyable. MRS. CANDACE LEHNITZ in her eighth and tenth grade classes sought to help students overcome the hurdles of usage, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure. Various types of literature were read for an appreciation of form and content. LA UAGE ART MR. BERNELL FEDJE emphasizes classes of ninth grade English that the knowledge of basic principles of grammar is necessary for the improvement of correct oral and written communication. A wider range of interest in reading was encouraged. In speech class students listened to tape recordings of their own speeches and became critical of their effectiveness as a speaker. Xi. MR. JOHN UUANQ CLARKIN made pupils realize that the study of Spanish in today's world supplies a vital and realistic need in the understanding and appreciation of other races of people and their culture. Students enjoyed his accounts of trips to Mexico and his observations of the country. ii MRS. LOUISE PLONTY checks papers here for those ever present errors in seventh grade written work, run-on sentences, and sentence fragments. Reading in PROSE AND POETRY IOURNEYS was both enjoy- able and helpful in developing comprehension 3.biliTZIleS.

DOLORES STONE, pictured BELOW, in addition to if ' ' teaching classes in home economics, teaches classes in X ., W' family living, a course designed to help students develop H X mature attitudes and ideals of adulthood and to approach 2 this period of life with a knowledge of factors which A ' contribute to unity and harmony in the family. N In the picture ABOVE MRS. GLADYS MEYERS is showing the girls in her home economics class the art of making an attractive centerpiece. Home economics classes are designed to enhance the art of homemaking through acquisition of skills in food preparation and care and sewing of garments. Meal planning, money management, home furnishing, child care and guidance provide practical subjects of study. MR. AL LAUER offers to students in his agriculture classes a basic course in the study of farming and related occupations and includes a study of soils, soils management and soil conservation. In addition, students study the production of farm animals, the business and man- agement of farms, and a system of bookkeeping to be used in keeping records of expenditures and sales. 16 DU TRIAL ART DEVELOP SKILLS AND CREATIVENESS Here is a group of students learning funda- mentals of auto-mechanics. Other areas in the metal shop area are sheet and art metal, machine operations, arc and gas Welding and assembly, repair, and maintenance of small engines. MR. DONALD BAKER of the industrial arts depart- ment offers students an opportunity to learn methods of construction and to develop skills in the use of hand tools and operation of machines. Creative abilities of students are guided in planning, organ- izing, and completing projects in woodworking. MR. ERYNHXI TOLKINEN in the drafting department teaches his students a broad perspective of general drafting fundamentals and gives them experience in both machine and architectural drafting which have both vocational and practical applications. CCDMMERCIAL CLASS Students in their second year of shorthand receive a nine weeks' couxse in office prac- tice consisting of training in such skills as: filing procedures and operation of adding, ditto, mirneograph, and dictaphone machines. ACTIO In MR. ED FLEMlNG'S typing class, students realize that typing can be both a challenging and useful experience. Students who acquire skills here are better equipped for college days ahead or are prepared to seek a career in the business world. Here students in MR. KEITH BROMAN'S bookkeeping class are learning basic principles of keeping books that can be applied to both personal and business use. Mr. Broman also teaches classes in business law, economics, and general business. S DE T TALE MU IC AN RT ARE DEVELQPED. MR. RICHARD FOLEY discovers and develops music talent in students of the high school. Consistent practice with organized bands as well as with individual students makes notes on printed pages mean more than just symbols to ambitious musicians. MR. LEE CARLSON directs the vocal area of the music department. Music appreciation, development of artistry and poise and voice control are objectives of the various singing groups under his direction. Classes in art are offered for the first time this year at St. Francis High School. MR. SIGMUND KUROSAD guides the interests and skills of students to a fuller apprecia- tion of art throughout the ages and seeks to develop the young art students into a creative thinker through growth of his own ability in this area. 19 PHY'KNUgEDUCATKD FOR, PHYSICAL FIT SS AN Students in MR. STAN YOVETICI-I'S classes in phys- ical education had opportunities to develop attitudes of fair play and sportsmanship While enjoying the playing of competitive games such as football, soft- ball, and volleyball. Gymnastics and other forms of physical exercises were also emphasized as important to the physical growth and development of today's youth. Mr. Yovetich is athletic and health director and is in charge of all athletic events with schools of the Skyline Conference and others in the area. RECREATIO MRS. HELEN SWANSON in charge of girls' physical education provides activities which encourage Whole- some social behavior such as teamwork, sportsman- ship, self-improvement in general health, and devel- opment of skills and attitudes that provide satisfying participation in recreation in adult life. These girls seem to be enjoying this game of volleyball. 5'2If1??r.3g Sometimes classes in physical education were conducted as a co-educational participation activity.

After a few weeks spent getting to know each other we met in the gym for our first class meeting. Greg Hanson was elected president, Al Fanucci, vice president, Rich Olson, secretary, and Andy Eakman, treasurer. Before we knew it, a year had passed and we were eighth graders. The mention of eighth grade brings back fond memories of geography in the lower annex with Mr. Yanke and the fun we had at our class roller skating parties. Then came ninth grade and WE were the rulers of junior high. We were freshmen! This year we welcomed to our class seven new members from Crown. That year while some struggled through a speech every week most of the class wrote our first book. None of them quite made the bestseller list although we thought that they should. In the fall of 1963 we were finally in senior high. In the spring twenty-two members of our class were chosen to serve at the jun- ior-Senior Banquet. The most important memory in our junior year is, of course, our junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. lnto it went much time, effort, money earned from a very successful spaghetti supper. Then came our senior year, which we were sure was going to be the best year ever. The first major event was Homecoming. We quickly chose our candidates, planned our float and stage decorations, and set up committees to publicize Homecoming set for October 29 . As the day drew closer, the race grew tighter. It was beautiful day for a parade and when we were back in our classrooms, we could scarcely settle down wait- ing for the bell to release us for the game. Finally we were out cheering our team to their first Homecoming victory in several years . The victory put everyone in a happy mood and somehow we managed to hang on until the Coronation Ceremonies . The first big announcement was that our float had won first prize. Now the candidates and atten- dants were on stage, and the big moment was here. When Sonny put the bouquet of roses in Bev's hands, everyone let them know of his approval. Other memories we shall cherish are of the class trip and Prom . Our class of 1966 has the honor of not only being the largest class ever to graduate from St. Francis, but also being the first from the newly enlarged building. About one- fourth of our class are planning further education. Others have plans toward business careers or the military services . With our class graduate ten varsity football players, six varsity basketball players, four wrestlers, twelve members of the A band, eleven members of the Senior Chorus in addition to many others who have participated in other extracurricular activities offered. In looking back over our years at St. Francis, we hope that in the years to come, St. Francis will miss us as much as we will miss St. Francis. T A or ,W pm.

One hund- red players reported for practice throughout the season demonstrating their interest and desire to contribute to the team's efforts. From this participation these athletes have received infinite values. Coach Cilbertson sums it up thus: Football teaches athletes to recognize weaknesses in themselves and to be brave enough to rise above fear. It conditions them to accept defeat graciously and to Win with humility and sportsmanship. 1 SX? ' . . .Q TRAPPED! ! St. Francis High School Football Squad re ceived recognition by having Clem Stine chosen as All Conference at offensive end. His placing on the All Conference team climaxed a season in which he made the following record: 55 tackles, which is 21 more than the next highest contender, tied for the most fumbles recovered, and Was the leading scorer with 21 points. Congrat ulations also to Rich Olson, Dan Richards and Dale Smith for receiving honorable mention. The team voted to name Rich Olson the most valuable player for this season.

'65-'66 BASKETBALL If the season ended with a disappointing note with the Saints losing to Spring Lake Park, having beat- en them twice during the regular season, the rec- ord of ten wins against eight losses cannot be discounted. To quote Mr. Yess, head basketball coach, The season must be considered one of the best, if not the best our team has had in many years. The highlights of the season were many. St. Francis enjoyed the high- est final standing since entering the Skyline Con- ference. It was the first year that a Saint had been nominated to the WCCO Prep Team of the Week. To Dale Smith goes this honor. lt was a first having two players selected for the Sky- line Conference All-Conference Team. Richard Olson and Gary Schumacher were awarded this recognition. Dale Smith and Cliff Breiland were given Honorable Mention recognition on the All Conference selection. B SQUAD The B Squad finish- ed the season with a record of eight wins against ten losses.

Happiness to a coach is a cooperative aggressive team and Mr. Yanke, head wrestling coach, expresses his sentiments: Although our season record may not be impressive this year's team has shown more desire and dedication than any other squad I have coached in the past at St. Francis. Impressive, however, were the state tournament results. Kirk Anderson, a sophomore, captured the state title in the 165 division bringing to the school a state tournament championship, a first in St. Francis athletic competition.

The 1965 Homecoming activities began with a bonfire and a snake dance on Thursday evening, October 28. On Friday morning the students met in the gymnasium for a rousing pep fest. At noon a parade consisting of the band, floats, and decorated cars marched through the streets of St. Francis. The senior class float, using this year's slogan Sioux-icide the Chiefs , won first prize of twenty dollars. The seventh and eighth grade classes Won second and third places re- spectively. A football game with Centennial ended in a victory for the Saints with a score of 12-7. Friday night our Homecoming was climaxed by the coronation of Clifford Breiland and Bev Tagg as King and Queen. Rich Olson and Dan Richards were named the players of the day . Q Following these ceremonies, emceed by Mary Ellen Guelker and Tom Dahlen, Queen Bev proclaimed the evening to be spent in dancing. Everyone en- joyed the dance in the gymnasium which had been beautifully decor- ated for this occasion.
