Teachers, too, find other activities. Pictured here are some of the faculty members taking time out for a breather . . . Through the year, you have probably noticed certain idiosyncrasies about our individual instructors . . . One can always identify Mr. Esse from just about any distance by his long stride . . . If you're within hearing distance you'd probably hear Mr. Peterson telling one of his chuckeling jokes . . . Mr. Ball also would still be going strong on his days in Iowa . . . From one direction we see Mrs. Jepson scurrying some place, and from the opposite direction come Miss Marschall as much at ease as ever . . . Oh! the life of a teacher! WHATEVER HAPPENED, I DIDN'T DO IT. Otto Sorensen. The home economics room is buzzin' after school. It is the hang out of the faculty. No one will ever for- get the exercise Mr. Loose gets in class. (Are you nervous? Nupe! !) Or the deep, mysterious voice that rings throughout the junior history class. Of course, it's Mr. Strommen. There are dangerous articles in school like a sharp pointed paper spindel. (How about that Mr. Crosgrove?) And then, there are those who have more trouble in remembering their entire uniform. (Isn't that right, Mr. Sorensen?) As a summary, Teachers Will Be Funny! GOOD MORNING MERRY SUNSHINE. Janice Duncanson. YOU LIKE'UM ROCK N' ROLL? . . . UGH! Milton Wetzel, Charlotte Jonsen, Janice Porter. HO! HO! HE! HE! Juanita Sogard, Joelle Halverson, Emery Krech, Gene Bonzer. 8

In the final game of the season, the Saints turned in their most impressive offensive effort by downing the Waseca Blue jays by the score of 59 to 6. The successful season can be contributed to the outstanding coaching of Mr. Haws and assistant coach, Mr. Wilkinson and the great desire and spirit of the team. The Saints received a beautiful gold trophy for winning the conference championship. Each let- terman received a gold football signifying their part in the successful season.
