On August 4, 1986, as he was returning to St. Ansgar from a school-related meeting in Stacy- ville, Mr. Jensen was involved in a serious two-car accident. He spent approximately fourteen weeks at St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester, MN, recuperating from head and other injuries. As the school year began, the three principals, Mssr. Mueller, Turner, and Tyler, shared the decision-making responsibil- ities. Mr. Tyler served as the Su- perintendent Designee. It was decided by the school board that a substitute superinten- dent was needed. Norm Kolberg, Superintendent of the Riceville school system, was hired begin- ning with the second semester. His title is Administrative Assistant, and he will remain on the job until Mr. Jensen can return to work. A rather unique schedule was worked out between the two schools. Mr. Kolberg works in St.Ansgar on Mondays, Wednes- days, and Friday mornings, and the remainder of his work week is spent in Riceville.

Treas.- Jennifer Hinman Class Motto: Single file and yet together, We have shared our greatest days. And we carry common memories, In different ways. Though we don't know where we're going. We will cherish where we've been. I want to cry. I want to shout Want to let this feeling out. Hold on to the moment. Let the feelings show. Hold on to the moment. Never let it go. I can picture us together With my arms around my friends. Just let me hold on to this moment, Before it ends. There was laughter. There were tears. Through the dozen golden years. 25 Timothy Bruggeman Steven Brumm Andrew Buechele Wade Buntrock 26 Amy Christofferson Maria Coronado Kimberly Current Steven Ehlke Rebecca Gonnerman Justine Hansen William Havlovic Melvin Heaps Delores Hemann Joseph Hemann Timothy Hemann James Hendrickson Jennifer Hinman Robert Hoevet Paula Jahr Patrick Howe Peter Jahr Paul Huemann Paula Huemann Kathleen Johanns Dwight Jorgensen Catherine Mauer Pamela Mauer Nancy May John Miller Kristine Mullenbach Nhut Van Truong Beth Nack Brian Petznick Thomas Pierce Deborah Rauen Kara Rust Michael Schiemann Bruce Steinberg Rick Storlie Damian Thome Daniel Thome Steven Thome Kimberly Thome Leslie Turk Robert Warrington Pamela Weber Cindi White Coralie Wilde NINETEEN EIGHTY ACTIVITIES Homecoming Royalty New queen Dee Hemann tearfully accepts her crown. 1986 Homecoming King and Queen: Delores Hemann and Dan Thome.

Fall Play — Don't Count On Forever After many weeks of long, hard work, the fall play was in full swing. The many practices paid off, and the play — Don't Count on Forever — a 2-Act Drama, by Nancy Gilsenan, was presented Friday, November 8 and Saturday, November 9 at 7:30 p.m. Except for a few incidents (like falling chairs and crashing tables) everything went well. Under the able direction of Ms. Brodersen, the play, which dealt with how a high school yearbook editor handled her parents separation, was well-received. It was the first time in several years that the fall play was a drama rather than a comedy or musical.

Early in the school year the officers decided to try something new to generate membership and chapter enthusiasm. The new members were encouraged to learn the FHA creed, motto, flower, and symbol at one meeting and were rewarded with a different ingredient of an ice cream sundae for each. Capri Cosmetology visited and performed a demonstration at another Fall meeting. In November, the chapter attended the district FHA meeting at N1ACC, where Noel Collier was elected Vice President of the district. Another new twist was a cookie sale on Valentine's Day. Sweetheart Swirl was held in March, co-sponsored with the FFA. Brenda Mayer, Kelli Marsh, and Noel Collier along with Mrs. Wendt, attended the State FHA Convention in Des Moines in late March. Ending the year was the annual Rose Breakfast, a tribute to the Senior members. 1. FHA members share the load of work with FFA members in decorating for Swirl. 2.

As the season progressed our fundamentals im- proved very much. Our girls had a lot of desire and were a real joy to work with. With almost every one coming back, next year we should be an exciting team to watch. Coach Paul Hannam Baseball: We played lots of games against older teams with experienced pitchers.

Jennifer Brower, our solitary cross-country runner, proved that the third time's the charm at the state meet this year. After taking seventh place as a freshman and second as a sophomore, Jennifer captured the coveted state title. Coach's comment A very rewarding season for Jennifer! Capped off with the class IAa State title. Cross-country requires a lot of dedication and self-discipline if you're going to be successful. Jennifer is definitely both!

It should be noted that the Saints, whose tallest starter stands 6'2 , accomplished these feats against teams with players reaching as high as 6'8 . There were also many spectacular individual efforts put forth by the Saints cagers and staff. On the All-Conference team were Junior Tim Klapperich, a first teamer. Senior Co-Captain Joe Hemann and Junior Joe Sherman achieved Second team status, and Bill Havlovic and Steve Jensen were Honorably Mentioned. Klapperich and Hemann both earned a place on the Thanksgiving Holiday Tournament Team. Team leader Tim Klapperich was honored with a spot on the North Iowa First Team and State Honorable Mention. And as if this wasn’t enough. Head Coach Merlyn Thorson was named North Iowa Coach of the Year for the first time in his 16 year head coaching career. The future looks even brighter for the Saints Boys Basketball Program. With 3 returning starters, 10 letterwinners, and a successful Fresh Soph Program, the 1987-88 Saints might soar even higher. 69 JV Girls Basketball FRONT: Deanna Rustad, Kim Patterson, Charissa Rosenberg, Becky Horgen, Kari Zosulis MIDDLE: Julie DeMaris, Mindee Scheffel, Diane Hemann, Tracy Dohler, Lana Hemann BACK: Coach Topm Townsend, Rose Coronado, Robin Retterath, Franny Kramer, Jodie Johanns, Cindy Rauen, Heidi Belz, Andrea Falk, Nicole Klapperich, Coach Dave Wilkerson Opp. Osage Lake Mills jpy i wood Norths Greene STA 40 44 00 39 45 55 55 55 49 4 -' 31 Rjteville JV record — 8-3 Fresh record — 2-2 Rocktdrd Manly Rockwell No a Springs 1.

Tracksters secure best season in school history; 3rd at State The 1987 edition of the St. Ansgar girls track team solidified its claim as one of the top girls track powers in the state with a seasonal sweep of all their major meets, including the District Meet, and attained a third place finish at the Class 2A State Meet. Averaging 127 points per meet, the girls shellaqued all opposition on their way to their second straight conference title. With many letterwinners returning next year, the girls tracksters should once again contend for the state crown. Junior distance stand-out Jennifer Brower led the charge after triumphing in last fall’s cross-country meet, garnering another state championship in the 3000 meter run and a second place finish in the 1500 meter run. Amy Theobald finished third in the state 1500m competition and ran on the second place finishing 4x800m relay team. Other members of the state's runner-up 3200m (9:33.93) relay unit were Deanna Rustad, Lori Gerdts, and Brower. Rounding out the Saints State competitors were Ann Miller in the long jump, who finished sixth with a school record leap of 17 feet, 1 1 2 inches, Lori Gerdts, who pocketed an eleventh place finish in the 800m run, as well as a new school record, Stephanie Ask, the state's seventh place finisher in the 200m dash, the school record setting shuttle hurdle team of Sara Sherman, Nancy Weber, Lynda Hemann, and Miller earning a time of 1:07.64, and the 4X200m relay unit reaped twelfth place at state . Comprising that team were Betsy Thome, Karla Hackenmiller, Miller and Ask. The Distance Medley Relay team set yet another school and conference record, registering a 4:33.93 time. Members on that foursome were Hackenmiller, Cindy Retterath, Andrea Falk, and Brower. Saints tracksters attaining conference records were Jennifer Brower in the 3000 and 1500m runs, Ann Miller in the long jump and the Distance Medley squad. With all members returning next year, the 1988 Saints Girls Track team could become one of the most successful teams in 2A competition.

The team placed a disappointing sixth at the Conference meet, in spite of some exceptional performances. Pete Jahr and Mike Hulshizer won Conference discus and shot put, respectively. Mark Krebsbach placed third in the 110 high hurdles and will be the returning favorite for next year. Chace Groth ran second in the 400 low hurdles and placed third in the high jump. With returning letterwinners and hopes for growth and maturity, the Saints' boys' tracksters should develop into one of the top track squads in the North Iowa area.

The girls didn't have the numbers that the boys did but had an equally successful year. Monica Hanna was the stand-out of the fivesome.

Little bits and pieces of laughter mixed with tears, paragraphs and pages written through the years. The carefree days of childhood, the growing days of youth, a few illusions shattered, the endless search for truth. The friendships we remember, mistakes that we regret, the ending of a love affair we never could forget. Yes, memories are happenings, each one a different kind, each one a separate chapter that is printed on the mind. We can't erase the sadness, or edit out the tears, we can't undo the wrong things we've done, we can't relive the years. But since memories keep building, each day can be a start, of making new and happy ones, to store within the heart. 92 1. Cindy Blake takes it easy. 2. Laurie and Kristie- looking good. 3.
