IN APPRECIATION OF A JOB WELL DONE The duty of education, a complex job with tremendous responsibilities, has been given to our administration. The members of the Board of Lduca- tion and the administration of the learning centers of St. Ansgar Commun- ity Schools have tackled the problems confronting our school, an often thankless job, which includes hours of wrestling with the cold hard facts and endless debate with conflicting opinions. For their consideration and efforts, we thank them and acknowledge their work on a job well done. Wallace E. Burns Superintendent of Schools Walter A. Rixen Vernon Bottorff Marilyn Rapien High School Principal Junior High Principal Elementary Supervisor BOARD OF EDUCATION: Ronald Priem, Newland Jensen.

ART DEPARTMENT Karen Tritle You will find the budding artists of STA at their regular hang-out in room 18. Here, you will find a conglomeration of clay, shellac, sandboxes and also the more domestic art materials. The zany creations are mixed in with the serious works to provide a general atmosphere of dynamic creativ- ity. The products of these artistic talents were exhibited at ihe first Fine Arts Festival and were valuable proof of the ingenuity of young students. Patricia Hinman: Shorthand, Business English, Office Practice, Per- sonal Typing and Business Law. HIGH SCHOOL GUIDANCE Art Lee Stuck away in a tiny cubicle is a Giant Among Men, Mr. Art Lee, our faithful leader at STA all six foot plus of him. His problems are an accumulation of all the students’ problems at this senior high, whether it be a choice of a college or a date. Struggling to figure out a senior’s gradepoint. he is never too busy to play Dear Abby” and straighten out a deathly serious problem. Larry Kester: Machine Shorthand, Secretarial Typing, Bookkeeping. BUSINESS EDUCATION DEPARTMENT A coded language of scribbles and dashes never ceases to amaze the non-shorthand students and ever frustrate the future secretaries trying to re- member if that odd sign is a significant word or just another doodle. Some of the most skilled machinists at the senior high are those people who work daily with the shorthand machines, typewriters, calculators and adding machines. And some of the most frustrated students are those trying to balance figures in a bookkeeping assignment. Good Luck! You deserve it! DRIVER EDUCATION J. David Runyon Wildly careening around corners and laying rubber is not J. D.’s style of driving as those of you lucky enough to be taking driver ed know. For you really are lucky: we all have to pay at least a dollar to get into a show to see all those bloody bodies and hear all those hilariously funny jokes. So good luck on your driving tests and pray god you don’t have to parallel park! 7
