SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Mr. Madson Mr. Gillespie Mr. Strandberg St. Ansgar’s science department offers something for every interested scientist, whether it be in the field of earth science, biology, chemistry, or physics. The science faculty-Mr. Gillespie, Mr. Madson, Mr. Strandberg, and Mr. Woolfries-manage to keep the senior high students busy with labs, worksheets, and large group lectures. The high point of the year is, of course, the science fair. We know how hard we all work on our projects .. .just tell the teachers that we put our work off until the last night. INDUSTRIAL ARTS Mr. Peterson Mr. Schubert Mr. Schubert and Mr. Peterson parole the industrial arts department at STA. The many activities of the department include drafting, woodworking, metals, electricity, and welding. The boys and the few privileged girls drew house plans and then built scale-model houses. Those last few weeks of school sure were hectic trying to get those last drawings in on time. The Indus- trial Arts Club worked on their dune buggy in the shop so that kept a lot of kids out of the cafeteria during free time. u

Richard Johnson C. Richard Sherman MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT Whether it be algebra, geometry, general math, or advanced math, the busy math students manage to “blow their cool” on bewildering numerical problems. Led by the fearless (??) mathematicians-Mr. Johnson, Mr. Shaw, Mr. Sherrpan-the stu- dents have tolerated the formulas, theorems, equations, and postulates for another dreary year. The math teachers should be commended. It's quite an undertaking to keep 300 kids interested in such a dull subject!?!?! Mrs. Carlene Luense PHYSICAL EDUCATION James McGrillis DEPARTMENT A new name (Mrs. Luense) and a new face (Mr. McCrillis) are the feature attractions of the physical education department. The “squatty body” kept the boys out of trouble by drawing them to an occasional class with wrestling, basketball, and the opportunity for ringing the fire alarm. Mrs. Luense and her athletic girls played badminton, basketball, swam, worked with gymnastics, bowled, and had outdoor sports in the spring. Richard Barta John Sether MUSIC DEPARTMENT Mr. Barta enjoyed a successful first year at STA. As a member of the Music Department, he also had a busy year, especially around April 4 and 5, the dates of small group contests. He directed the marching and concert bands, and he had a large undertaking in the direction of the orchestra for the spring musical, “My Fair Lady.” Thanks to Mr. Sether, the choir de- partment had a new branch added, a cappella which was finally worked into the schedule the second semester. Those hour practices will come in handy as the a cappella goes on tour to Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota. The choir, small groups, and solos made an impressive showing in Cresco at small group contest.

VOCATIONAL DEPARTMENT The social studies department is alive and thriving as any weary freshmen or junior could tell you. The masterminds are Mr. Thrond. Mr. Luense, Mr. Shaw, and Mr. Hogan. Mr. Luense carries a full schedule with American History, Economic Geogra- phy, Eastern Civilization, and coaching. We all know that he manages to keep his classes on their toes with assignment sheets and various other busy work. Mr. Hogan, the famous psychologist quoted in MAN. THE MANIPULATOR, and historian, “to a degree, has now survived two years at STA. He teaches American History, psychology, social studies, coaches basketball, and “so forth, on down the line’’. We hope the sinkers, led by Coach Dick, go to state next year. Mr. Shaw, along with math, geometry, and U. S. History, claims the title and responsibilities of athletic director. It was doubt ful that Mr. Thrond could find his way to the steering wheel through the mounds of “Newsweeks” stacked in his car, but he did it. He also managed to survive his fourth year at STA- another year of government and a fantastic semester of sociology with the class of ’70-a good experience for all. To round out the year, he also teaches world history and takes field trips to mysterious places. The class of ’70 breathed a sigh of relief and proudly placed their names on the chairs of the lecture room on the last day of school. Richard Hogan James Luense The Home Economics Department added many new one semester classes this year-coed, infact so that for the first time, boys were seen coming from that area. The new classes are child development, family living, housing and interiors, clothing, and foods. Highlights of the year were the merged family living psychology field trip to Faribault to visit the school for the deaf and the state mental institution. Dave had another very successful year with his FFA boys and their accomplishments. It was a little hard to see who was to get what honor at the end of the year, though, because he wrote on the awards himself and no one could read his writing! Maybe the next FFA project should be a typewriter. SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT II Dale Thrond Mrs. Mary Fisk Dave Hinman Kermit Shaw
