Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1972 volume:

The school year '71-72 was a unique one. It will never happen again. Trying to capture this year and record it in words and pictures is a yearbook's reason for being. St. Peter is a unique town—from the gang in front of the Pool Hall to the company picnic in Minnesota Square ||k Park. Some of us will never leave St. Peter, some will ||l' go and never come back. Yet it will always be remem- bered by all for it is unique, just as this schbol year ; was unique. I We are all unique. St. Peter, and St. Peter High has ; tried to teach us. It has taught us, fought us, and hopefully—prepared us. The Class of '72, unique as both a class and as individuals, has left its mark on this town and this school, just as they have left their mark on them. For some of us, these were the best years of our lives; for some it will be looked back upon with sadness and pity. So because it will never happen the same way again, this year and yearbook is dedicat- ed to the uniqueness of St. Peter, St. PeterJ-Iigh, and the Class of '72. vI i Part I 8 PREPARATION 10 MEMBERSHIP 38 Part II 60 COMPETITION 62 CELEBRATION 84 Part III 100 PEOPLE 102 PRODUCTS 118 CONCLUSION 140 INDEX 141 ADS 144 7 PART ONE PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN TO LIVE. WE LEARN IN MANY WAYS, BUT THE MOST BASIC WAY TO LEARN IS BY BEING TAUGHT. THE FOLLOWING PAGES SHOW THE WAYS IN WHICH ST. PETER HIGH TEACHES US. IT TEACHES US THROUGH PREPARATION, SOME BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF OURSELVES AND OUR WORLD. IT TEACHES US, THROUGH MEMBERSHIP, THE FEELING OF BELONGING TO A GROUP, WORKING WITH A GROUP AND EXCELLING IN A GROUP. PREPARATION ABOVE: Mr. Schaible makes one of his daily trips to the office.

Mr. Schaible teaches the senior high students, and Mrs. Laabs works with the junior high students. Throughout the year these two classes have presented successful art shows in our community. Most of the year the students work in- dividually on projects. They work on everything from pottery, to water color, to ceramics, to oil painting, and on and on. The art classes also support other activities, such as working on the senior class motto sign. Art is often chosen as a favorite by a number of students. SUSAN LAABS- Art 7, 8.

American Minorities proved to be an interesting and informa- tive class. Mr. Aanonsen delved into the human mind in Psychology and Mr. Haukoos taught a relevant class on SE Asia. Mr. Nelson taught his favorite subject, Minnesota History. Mr. Waltman studied the problems of people and society in Sociology. Of course the 'regulars’ World History, American History and American Govern- ment are still around, but only as se- mester courses. These new innovations brightened up the year and provided a change of pace for all. TOP: The hynotists in Mr. Aanonson's Psych class was a highlight of the course.

Cov- ering everything from Poetry to Prose, the English department gives us a wide variety of learning. Starting with Mr. McDonald's and Mrs. Swenson's classes, and then struggling through grammar with Mr. Smart, you wind it all up with Mrs. Bjerke, Mrs. Anderson or Mr. McDonald again as a Senior. Mrs. Turrittin and Mrs. Thorn work hard to keep our library filled with good litera- ture and up-to-date magazines to help out the English department. Whether it's figuring out what is the past participle or reading Mythology, English is a diversi- fied subject that is necessary for all. 16 LEFT: Teachers Bjerke and Anderson combine their classes to discuss literature.

MATH, SCIENCE It's a Lot of , but. . . Math and Science courses are both elec- tive in our school, so one can only blame himself if he starts to drown. That doesn't often happen, though, because the courses are taught by some good teachers who are always more than willing to help. Mr. Kurseth and Mr. Dierks hold down the Science Department and teach about life and the world around us. The Math department hosts a great variety of num- bers and equations of all sorts for every- one. With so many different levels, one can obtain a great deal of knowledge about the wonderful world of numbers. Chemis- try and Biology experiments are another favorite, and everyone can tell by the smell in the halls if it's a lab day! Giving us a basic understanding of life and the principles that govern it, these two departments work hand in hand.

BUSINESS Practical Training for All Nearly everyone takes at least one busi- ness course during their years at St. Peter High. Whether it’s pecking at a typewriter or struggling with an adding machine in Bookkeeping, the business courses are among the most popular and most practical electives. These are the courses that train us to fact the everyday problems of our business-minded world. A new feature was added to the business department with the advent of Mr. Krohnberg's special programs. Students taking one of his special classes could get credit and a job at the same time through the school. This was been a boon to many in lots of ways. Besides, it gets you out of school a little earlier, even if it is just for a job! It's just another fea- ture that makes the business courses so popular. UPPER RIGHT: D. Braun, M. Kendall, and B.

VO-AC, HOME EC Vocation Trainers Preparing students for vocations, the Home Ec. and Vo-Ag Departments are important ones. The shop boys learn everything from woods to metals. Mr. Dowling keeps his students well versed on the changing world of agriculture. Electronics is another of the tough ones that requires much skill. Teaching students to maintain better and happy homes, the Home Ec. teachers are always coming up with new and exciting ideas. Now offering a greater variety of courses such as Family Living and Child Development, this department is expand- ing. C. W. DOW LING-Agri culture; FFA.

ED, HEALTH, DRIVER'S TRAINING Learning New Skills Sweating and working hard for 45 minutes and showering and then dressing in 10 are all a part of the life of a Phy. Ed. student. Teaching these kids new skills and knowl- edge is a part of the teachers life. There is a new emphasis on many varied sports, and teaching them is a constant challenge. Health is a class that teaches people about themselves and is often very interesting. With new diseases and cures cropping up daily this course is an ever-changing one. Driver's Training is the one course that students really work hard to pass. After all, Mr. Fredlund 'holds the keys to your car.' Besides, it's very important to learn about safety rules and insurance and things necessary to become a good M • tf cruiser. SHELIA JOHNSON, Phy, Ed Secretary.

Spanish is now being offered to those as young as seventh grade. It was a popular course, and enjoyed by all who took it. Besides Spanish, the traditional German, Latin, and French classes were all busy conju- gating verbs, constructing sentences, or listening to the headphones. The all women Language faculty are all good teachers and they help to make the Lan- guages popular elective courses. Besides just learning in class, the Lan- guage classes have tried some new and different things. German and French dinners were all carried out beautifully. However, the grand Tour De St. Peter never was, although the French II class still managed to eat! UPPER LEFT: Mrs. Anderson readies a tape. ABOVE: Best-dressed Frau Mudrinich helps a German student.

SPEECH, JOURNALISM Communication Counts These two courses are offered as a chance for students to get into a more specialized field. Speech is taught by Mr. Fosburgh, and required of every seventh grade student. Who can ever forget that first speech, way back then? When a stu- dent reaches senior high, he can choose to take speech as an elective, which many do. Giving the students a basic background in public speaking is the purpose of this course. The Journalism class taught by Mrs. Burdick is basic instruction on the media. The main task of this class is putting out the school paper, the Peter Patter. Often working long hours to meet the deadlines, the class gets plenty of practical experi- ence. 29 LEFT: Marlene Wenner gives a speech in her senior speech class. ABOVE: Two Journalism students practice the hard work that makes a good paper. MUSIC Learning Appreciation The music program at SPHS is a con- stantly enlarging one. Miss Kelley and Mr. Trembley work with students from 7th grade on, giving them a background in music as well as some practical expe- rience. A music class is taught on the fundamentals of music during the 7th and 8th grades. From these classes the stu- dents can choose to go on with choir or band on the junior high level. From there they are ushered into senior high band and choir where they face some tough competition from the older kids. St. Peter High offers to all a good chance to develop an appreciation of good music and a chance to make their own music, too.

PROGRAMS Men With Big Ears The men in our school who have to be the best listeners are the counselors. Mr. Sauer, Mr. Bollum and Mr. Roemhildt. These are the guys who plan everyones schedule for next year, hoping that the students will not have to change it any more than two times. With the help of Debbie Ewalt, their sexy secretary, they handle student-faculty problems, and administer every test in the book to stu- dents (just to keep them on their toes). Always lending a helping hand, the counselors are greatly appreciated by all. Special Programs at SPHS include help in the Special Education Department which is a commendable one. Mr. Krohnberg also works with students on a very popular work-study program. 33 RIGHT: School Board members L TO R, Geo. Anderson, Mrs. Gloria Benson, Wayne Pettis, Dr. Olmanson, M.

HARDING FREDRICKSON, Superintendent of Building and Grounds; LARRY LUEDKE, Business Manager; EDGAR OLANDER, Senior High Principal LESTER SWARTWOOD, Superintendent JOHN YOUNGSTROM, Junior High Principal 34 ADMINISTRATION Keeping It All Under Control The people who handle the business end of the high school are referred to as the Administration or more commonly known as THEY. The District Office that houses Superintendent Swartwood is where most of the business and money matters are carried out. Everyone has bought a lunch ticket from Mrs. Pitmon or tried to get a requisition form from Larry Luedke. Busy behind the scenes are Harding Fredrickson and the superintendent's secretaries. The Principal's office is another story. It controls teacher and student activities, and is often filled with both students and faculty seeking a pass, admission slip, leave school permit, supplies, or a hun- dred other things. Mrs. Thompson and Mrs. Maas are daily on their toes trying to keep everyone in class. Mr. Olander and Mr. Youngstrom are always busy working with teachers, students, and counselors. THEY are the force behind a lot of things in our school and, like it or not, they keep our school running smoothly.

The janitors keep our halls clean, unjam lockers, and occasionally supply a student with a life-saving piece of gum. A more cheerful group of guys would be hard to find. The cooks keep us fed, with smiling faces, and then clean up the mess we leave in the lunchroom. Mrs. Robeck, who keeps the Phy. Ed. department supplied with clean towels can be found loading up her dryers all through the day. The lady who keeps our bathrooms clean and washes off some of our 'grafiti' is Mrs. Heilman. Joy Sanderson, the school nurse, sustains our health and gives a lift home to ailing students. These people are another vital and im- portant part of our school. We know we couldn't function without even one of them. LEFT: Mrs. Sanderson checks out Cris Custer's temperature before letting her go home 'sick.

Then there were the mellow mouths who beat the Owatonna experts 2 out of 3. Other traditional activities were also carried out, such as swimming and bowl- ing. Broom hockey proved to be a vicious sport, yet exciting for those who played. The girls' track team was also victorious in the spring. Although there were fewer girls involved this year, it was still fun. Pep Club carried on this year with its round of poster-making crews. The girls worked hard and came up with some really clever ideas. Their talents really showed at District Wrestling and Basket- ball. The girls are a devoted bunch, led this year by two 'tiny tots', Stacy Ball and Barb Meyer. mum The Pep Club and GAA members com- bined their forces well this year and put out a float at Homecoming, besides the usual job of building Coronation.

With only four old staff mem- bers, the Peter Patter began the year. The group really got it together though. In no time at all the first issue was out and they were busy thinking about the second, third, and fourth. Carol Sauer was the editor of this year's paper. New ideas were brought up and discussed and then presented to the school via the Peter Patter. The final result of the staff was a magazine that was very well presented. The magazine gave a farewell to the Class of '72 and also gave the other school news. In the end, the staff had proven itself to be a good one that knew how to work. ABOVE: Staff members T. Dopp, S.

RIGHT: 1972 Peterian Staff. 42 PETERIAN Hard and Tedious Work From soliciting to the final layouts, the Peterian '72 has been a lot of hard work for all concerned. The year was started with a driving force trying to capture everything of importance with pictures. A broken camera and flash that did not work often led to frustration. Often times putting off final work, the editors hoped all would turn out well. Next year's edi- tors were already working on plans for Peterian '73. Mrs. Johnson who was for- ever trying to get us going deserved better than she got—but we made it! Larry, Rick, and Kim were the photog- raphers that captured the scenes; Connie, Ronda, Cris and Jac were the ones who put them together. TOP: R. Wright and K. Olson are finally photographed. ABOVE: Co-editors C. Custer and J. Nelson share a smile with the photographer. SCIENCE CLUB The School's Scientists' Working around all the postponed meet- ings, the Science Club managed to get their experiments done. Working under the leadership of Mr. Kurseth and Mr. Dierks, some very interesting things were discovered by the junior scientists. Science Club is a small group, but one can be sure that among those kids there is a genuine interest in the ever-changing field of science. Meeting monthly on a designated Thursday, the Club explored many different fields and came up with new results that were of importance to all who had participated in them.

With the help of Mrs. Turrittin and Mrs. Thorn, they planned their annual game night that was all fun and games. The kids decorated the library for Christ- mas with everything from stockings to bells to brighten the atmosphere. When they got the new carpet in, the assist- ants were rather taken aback by the odor for a few days, but they trudged on. Helping with the books is only one part of their job. The Club members also help the students with research prob- lems and also get them to and from the Library with passes. This spring they took a field trip to the Guthrie and ab- sorbed some culture. The year was a good one for this group, and when they received their pins for serving, they knew it was a year well spent. TOP: Camie Custer takes time out for her job as a librarian assistant.

DEBATE, DECLAM, NFL Speaking With a Purpose Debate, Declam and NFL are all speech associated organizations that plan an im- portant part of SPHS. Mr. Fosburgh is the advisor for all three. This year the Debate topic was Resolve: That the jury system of the United States should be significantly changed. The Debate kids worked extremely hard to present their cases. Many experienced quite a few frustrating moments but all were worth- while. Debating affirmative as well as negative is not an easy task. The Dec- lamation students went all out this year. A number survived sub-district, but dis- trict proved to be a little harder. Linda Edwards was our single representative at region. Also this year, P. Jansen, L. Sorenson, J. Bolton, and P. Martinson gave radio talks and competed for scholarships. P. Martinson won a scholarship as well as the title of Speaker of the Year. NFL is the organization that is made up of those students who have earned speak- ing points through Debate and Declam. It is an important organization and is valued by those who belong.

They also participated in a Homecoming Game ex- change with the Hutchenson Marching Band. Their first concert of the year was at Bjorling Hall and was a great success. The second annual Band Carnival was highlighted with the coronation of Patty Germscheid as Queen. The Band also had a concert exchange with the Paynesville Band. The trip to Paynesville was an eventful one and resulted in the change of some of the Band personnel. The Band previously had received four stars at the District Contest. The climax of the year, though, was the earning of four stars at Regional State which is the highest rating they could receive. 49 ABOVE LEFT: Constant practice is necessary to achieve a good sound.

CHOIR The Joy of Singing The choir this year was a small group with a good sound. Miss Kelley worked with only a few girls and even fewer boys. Picking her selections for this small group presented some problems, but she worked around them. The first concert was held at Bjorling Hall on the Gustavus campus. It was a new idea that worked out well. The second concert was held in the school gym. A good turnout and a good concert pleased everyone. District 13 competition rolled around next and the choir received one star as a whole and the individuals singers and ensembles also starred. The third and what was to be the final concert never was, due to the un- fortunate illness of Director Kelley. She was able to come back near the end, but too late for a concert. Despite all this, those in the choir will remember it as both a learning and a fun experience. 51 FFA Club With a Cause The FFA Chapter of St. Peter is indeed a busy one. The boys and girls always seem to be promoting projects for not only the community and school, but also for Mother Nature. This year among other projects, they cleaned the grounds of a local cemetery. Another encounter was that of raising pheasants which surely proved to be a challenging one. This year there were also a few girls in the group — which means that there is something rather attractive there. One can be sure that there is something that draws the kids to join this club. Whether it is Mr. Dowling or worthwhile projects, there is most certainly a large number of stu- dents who take part. TOP: FFA Club with advisors Mr. Dowling and Mr. Tupper. ABOVE: FFA entry in homecoming parade. 52 FHA The Hard Workers FHA means something different to each member, but no matter what it means, it is truly a lot of work. The girls are very dutiful and meet weekly to make their’s a better organization. This constant drive has paid off. Membership is constantly growing as is interest throughout the school. This year they sponsored a fashion show with Bretts which was an interesting program on new spring fashions. Another project was a roller-skating party. Near the end of the year, they had a farewell slumber party in the school gym, which was, of course, exciting and fun. Miss Heiman, the FHA advisor, has worked closely with the girls to promote fun and hard work and she is greatly appreciated by the girls. FHA is a hard-working group of girls that is going somewhere. ABOVE: FHA Club with advisor Miss Heiman. 53 STUDENT COUNCIL Starting under a new constitution, the student government of SPHS once again worked for the rights of the students. They often found themselves getting com- pletely tied up in red tape, but they did manage to accomplish, through a lot of hard work, some things. Because of an overabundance of students in school this year, they were not able to reopen the lounge. However, they were the initiators of a new program, flexible periods. This program was started to give the students a chance to make a little more decision in their educational process by letting them decide what to do with their spare study hall time. Of course the Student Council was also putting on the usual dances and entertain- ment for the students. The Senate planned the first Homecoming parade in a long time, and Snow Week was also planned and executed by them. Meeting weekly, the council had its share of undecided prob- lems, but they also managed to promote a lot of fun and some new responsibility for everyone.

Olmanson THES., HONOR SOCIETY Always Working Hard This year these organizations were not real active but they did carry out their traditional functions. The Thespians were led by J. Smith who tried to keep them ac- tive. In the fall, the Thespians traveled to the Guthrie to see a comedy entitled Misalliance. Then during the school year they were busy working on the vari- ous class plays and the contest play. In the spring, there was the formal initia- tion which meant learning one more dramatic speech for some. N. Boettcher was given the Thespian of the Year award, and 16 juniors were initiated. The informal initiation was held in the park and the new Thespians read parts to demonstrate their talents. P. Martinson with the help of a missing secretary worked for National Honor Society. This group met often and dis- cussed traditional business but never worked on any real projects. Mr. Sauer got them working in the spring on the choosing of the new Honor Society mem- bers. A court-room scene was used at both the formal and informal initiation. D. Olmanson was elected the new presi- dent with the pledge to be a good one. TOP: The new Senior Honor Society members.

She and ad- visor, Frau Mudrinich, made plans for a picnic and several other things, but they never got carried out. The highlight of the year for the German Club mem- bers was the fondu Christmas party at Kris Cope's house. The food was pre- pared by several members at Kris's. Several of the classes cooked something during the year. The third year class had a dinner that was a success except for the fact that the chocolate cake had too much rum in it.

LETTERMAN'S CLUB The Muscle Boys Letterman's Club is not one of the most active clubs in our school, but it does have its purpose. President Jerry Straka with the help of Brad Von Essen and Dave Mines led the group in its activities. The boys could often be seen ushering and helping at most any game or match dur- ing the year. The highlight of the year is the Letterman's Banquet. This year there were a few senior athletes missing be- cause of previous participation in Senior Skip Day. The Banquet was a success as the guest speaker was Murray Warmath, the former Minnesota Gopher Coach. Mr. Sipes and Mr. Hyduke were honored as retiring former coaches. And the big announcement was that Chris Biehn was named Athlete of the Year. PART TWO PEOPLE NEED DIVERSION. WE HAVE LEISURE TIME TO SPEND FREELY. SOME OF US USE THIS TIME TO COMPETE WITH OTHERS. WE WANT TO BE FIRST OR WE WANT OUR TEAM TO BE FIRST. ST. PETER HIGH GIVES US A CHANCE TO COMPETE, TO BE A PART OF A TEAM. SOME OF US USE OUR TIME TO CELEBRATE. WE ACT, WE DANCE, WE LAUGH.

FOOTBALL New Coach, New Team, New Hope Headed by a new coach, Mr. Lyle Eidsness, and led by a freak quarterback that knew how to pass, the 1971 team brought football back to SPHS. Players Dean Kliest, Jerry Straka, and Chris Biehn were all named to the South Central All-Conference Team. Even with all the rainy nights, the crowd turned out to cheer on a winning team. The season started with a win over Lakeville, the first ever. A victory at Home- coming over Glencoe only spurred the mighty Saints on. One of the best games ever played by St. Peter, the Fairmont game unfortunately ended in a 34-33 defeat. Yet it clearly showed that in future years a victorious season will not be a rarity for the St. Peter Saints. RIGHT: Jerry Straka makes another gain on the ground.

This year the team was a group of fun-loving boys with much energy to spare. With growing crowds, this sport seems to be a very popular one with SPHS students. It's no wonder that more are starting to take notice, though, because the effort put out by each, merits a great deal of acknow- ledgement. Running across that golf course is no easy job, and it requires much skill and training. The Cross Country boys proved that they have both of these plus the ability to have a good time while doing it. 66 LEFT: A St. Peter runner looks a little tired as he completes his run.

The St. Peter wrestling team had another good season this year. They continued to draw exceptionally big crowds in a year that seemed devoid of school spirit. Providing excitement was one of their biggest attractions. Mr. Schaible called this year’s team one of the funnest bunch of kids he had ever worked with. The highlight of the season had to be the match with one of their biggest rivals, Mahkato. Winning that match closely by 25-24, the Savages had every reason to be proud. The season was also filled with other great matches, each one a special thing for the wrestlers. It's teams like this year's, and good coaches like Mr. Schaible, Mr. Peterson, and Mr. Rundell that make wrestling one of the most popu- lar sports at St. Peter High. 69 ABOVE: Wrestling Team (L.

The season also started on a disappointing note with many defeats. Then about half way through the year SPHS acquired a new coach. Gene Krohnberg. Soon after, the Saints defeated Hutchinson by a score of 56-46. From that time on, the games were close and often exciting. There was the game with Mankato Wilson that went into over- time, but still resulted in a loss. The boys were now executing fine plays with a great deal of precision. Then came Dis- tricts, and the Saints had a victory against Prior Lake, winning by 10 points. They were then, however, defeated by New Prague. It does look like SPHS has an exciting future in basketball though, because even though winning was not one of the predominant factors in the season, effort certainly was and that's where it all begins. 73 ABOVE: Mile relay team (L.

A number of seniors be- came ineligible in the beginning of the season, so Mr. Braunger worked with some handicap. Polevaulter C. Straka was injured at an early meet and was not able to participate for most of the season. The team held together though and broke records and just had a good time working together. The devotion given by the boys was rewarding. Members of the track team could be seen practicing all hours of the day and night. The team placed Fourth in the District 13 competition and sent a few boys on to Region 4. TOP: J. Straka shows his pole.

Mr. Nesheim worked daily with his team and came up with a good combination of plays. The Biehn - Zallek duo was a deadly one for many ball players. The '72 baseball team does not need a good record to show their abilities. All it takes is to watch them play one game, and one knows that they are great. The team worked their way slowly through District 13 playoffs, defeating Le Sueur and Arlington. The biggest disappoint- ment came when they were eventually de- feated in the finals by Prior Lake. The team has a great future with memories of a great past. ABOVE: Catcher Paul Zallek throws the ball back to the pitcher after the batter gets a strike. 77 GOLF A Swinging Group Mr. Aanonsen, the club swinger, worked with a big team this year. Junior high participation was good as was senior high. A number of boys proved themselves consecutively on the course. Practice was not always easy to arrange. They tried to work at the Golf Course, but rain and other activities often prohibited its use. The team came against some tough com- petition but they placed first in District 13 competition and went onto Region 4. TOP LEFT: P. Martinson prepares to return a serve.

Judy Smith always knew they were in good shape. Although the team was a small one, it was a good one. The boys worked closely with their coaches and really had a good time. Their record is not outstanding but the team itself is. ' 79 ABOVE: Curt, Dean, and Richard, three of the rough -and- tough Big O's are ready on the rebound of a free throw.

The weightlifters are working to keep themselves in shape and keep their bodies moving smoothly. The boys that took part in intramurals will never forget those action-packed Satur- day mornings. The Big O's were brought into the spotlight when an article on their playing style was printed in the Peter Patter. Just a bruise is one of those phrases that will go down in history. All in all it was an exciting season that will be remembered by all who shared in the fun.

CHEERLEADERS Drive and Energy The cheerleaders of SPHS are full of energy and pep with a constant driving force. Trying to keep up our school spirit and reputation is their job during the year. With only one Senior on the squad, SPHS will have some really experienced girls next year still around. Appearing at every match and game possible, the girls had plenty of practice. Besides that, their coach Miss Wilharber kept them after school quite a few times to 'brush up.' The excellent results are obvious every time they cheer. All of the cheerleaders, both A and B squad, will end this year with their own special memories of the games, the practices, the shared joys and the petty differences. It is all of this that makes being a cheerleader something to work for if you want it. UPPER RIGHT: J. Thun performs a line jump. ABOVE: B-squad cheerleaders; (L TO R) M. Schaus, J. Nauman, L.

The week had a beautiful beginning with the offical queen coronation. Barb Meyer was chosen from six lovely finalists to reign over the festivities as the '71 Home- coming Queen. Mrs. Carl Aanonsen and last year's queen, Sharon Conlon were honored guests at the Coronation. Karen Dummer, a SPHS alumnus, was the guest speaker. Our Queen Barb was serenaded by Greg Weber, Student Body President, and then she took control........ LEFT: Greg Weber, President of the Student Body, crowns Barb Chunk Meyer Homecoming Queen.

Fields, the Little Rascals, and Laurel and Hardy. Throughout the week the Senior High students and various organizations were busy working on floats for the parade, the first SPHS kids have had in a long time. Thursday night the Senior girls entertained at the Pep Fest with a skit entitled The Night Before Home- coming Friday--the parade! It was a great success. Numerous floats, two marching bands, princesses, and our queen were a real treat for all to see. It was announced that night at the football game that the Junior's float, Is It Soup Yet? had taken first place. The Seniors were in a close second with their float called Pluck the Eagles. 88 .. .Our mighty Saints roared to a 54-22 victory over the Glencoe Eagles that night. Homecoming Week ended with the traditional tea and dance. The dance was a resounding success as Wire provided the music. Homecoming Week '71 was really a great success. Each class contributed to the excitement and the uniqueness. It will be remembered by all as a good way to remember St. Peter High. LEFT: The six anxious candidates (L. TO R. ), Marlene Wenner, Kim Erhorn, Tese Hansen, Barb Davis, Stacy Ball and Barb Meyer await the final decision.

A comedy that taught us all the secrets of a happy marriage, it proved that Women's Lib wins out! Director Sally Burdick turned the Senior class into a love machine. With a large cast, the seniors put lots of work into this play, as it was one of the last class efforts for SPHS. Mrs. Anderson got her stage crew together to put up a new style stage. Imagine using a real live dog on stage—what about accidents? Appearing in the play were Jennifer Monke, Gene Peterson, Nancy Boettcher, John Theuer, Jennifer Bolton, P. Jansen, R. Wright, B. Davis, P. Erickson, P. Hruby, K. Davis, M. Miller, P. Martinson, C. Sauer, D. Johnson, F. Molina, M. Lorentz, B. Boutwell, B. Crowe, D. Anderson, and K. Swedburg.

Five Seniors--Nancy Boettcher, Bill Burke, Greg Weber, Jennfier Monke, and Diane Johnson—with the help of their director, Mr. Burdick, gave SPHS a drama like it hasn't seen in a long time. They showed us a valuable lesson about life, love, and age. Using a minimum of props, the Contest Play won first place in both Sub-district and District competition, Nancy was named Best Actress and Honorable Mentions were given to Bill Burke, Jennifer Monke, and Diane Johnson. Something I'll Tell You Tuesday placed third in Region 2, proving again that it was a winner any way you looked at it.

Under the direction of Mr. Smart, the small cast of six evoked a great deal of laughter from all their audiences. The climax was when Vicki Skramstad, Brenda Olmanson and Connie Wenner had their little brawl on the stage. This particular scene was hilar- ious and was certainly enjoyed by all. One can surely look forward to many more successful performances out of the sophomore actors and actresses. Appearing in the play were Steve Gray, Brenda Olmanson, Vicki Skramstad, Connie Wenner, and Shannon Phillips. ABOVE: Director of the Junior and Sophomore plays, Mr. Smart.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY Play Within a Play The Junior Class presented Curtain Going Up this year in grand style. The play concerned a group of seniors who were chosen to present the class play the last day of the school year. They were plagued with minor and major tragedies. First day of practice, the scripts were stolen—but that did not stop them. With more than one love quarrel, the play steadily progressed. As curtain time neared, there appeared one more prob- lem; no leading lady. The Junior Class did a fine job on their southern accents and presented the atmosphere of the deep south. The cast was a large one, with five or six major roles. The little parts once again helped to carry over the play. There was very little scenery, but what was there created a very effective mood.

SNOW WEEK A Winter Holiday Starting with the Coronation of Jeff Ellerbusch as Snow King, Snow Week proved to be a fun week for all. After the Coronation, snow sculptures were built. They were all good and gave the judges a tough decision to make. After a long night, it was announced that the Seniors were victorious with their giant turtle. The wrestling match on Tuesday was another big victory for the Savage Saints as they defeated Blue Earth. Thursday was Fun Night at Minnesota Square. With skating and hot chocolate, it turned out to truly be a 'fun' night. The basketball game on Friday was a disappointment, but the effort put out by the players was a rewarding sight. Spirits were 'high' later that evening at the dance. The band, Blackbone, was one of the great surprises of the week. They were really good! Snow’ Week was a REAL-winter holiday because it wras enjoyed by so many. PROM 72 Hosted by Juniors, the Seniors Boogie The Junior class, with the help of their two industrious advisors, Mrs. Olson and Mr. Schiable, were the hosts of Prom '72. The theme, entitled 'Zodiac' was dis- played in a beautiful fashion. The Juniors had to stage a 'lock-out' to keep the Sen- iors from peeking and they managed to surprise many of them. Prom began with a semi-formal banquet at the First Lutheran Church. Then, it was on to the dance. The band, Sassa- frass, provided good music to 'boogie' by, and the kids were definitely ready to 'boogieI ' There was no organized after- prom, so all the couples partied on their own. Zodiac will go down in history as one of the best proms at SPHS.

The girls all had beautiful slides and pictures to show and exciting stories to tell. They all made an effort to show everyone a little bit of their own special country. Missing their families and friends abroad, they related their expe- riences to classes throughout the school. St. Peter High itself didn't receive any exchange students this year, but they worked on candy sales and the Penny Drive so that they could once again send some students abroad. Going this year are Tim Strand, Melaine Johnson, Lorri Overn, Linda Edwards, and Dawn Holteen. SPHS will be awaiting their re- turn in the fall, complete with slides.

St. Peter High brings together people of the same ages, same interests, same thoughts. It also brings together those with opposite thoughts and interests. Yet somehow these people all mesh together to form the Student Body of the high school. Each student is important and unique. Each one of them takes St. Peter and what it has to offer and uses it. Some use it in the traditional ways: they study, they listen, they talk. Others are trying different ways: they yell, they skip classes, they strike. Many combine the two extremes effectively. We need all factions, just as we all need people. The following pages are the people who make St. Peter High what it is. And especially the Seniors who made this past school year what it was. 100 People 103 SOPHOMORES The Locker Kids The Sophomore class has this thing about their lockers, or should we say their homes?! Displaying some of the most decorated lockers in the halls, these kids are always looking for a new picture or poem or saying or anything! One could say they have come a long way from ninth grade. They did have a good year. Their snow sculpture won the prize for Best Current Theme. The black and white snowmen holding hands meant another good time and another memory for them. The Sophomores also presented a Powder- puff basketball game that was first post- poned but eventually took place. As usual, it was quite a sight to see. It wasn't long after that that Prom time came around and so did Prom serving. Six girls and six boys had the task of serving at the banquet and then keeping the punch glasses full at the dance. All in all the Sophomores can be summed up as a class with a lot of implusive ideas, like the 'class' picnic on the last day of school which turned out to be just four kids eating at the A WI!

They are the kids who put together a first place float entitled Is It Soup Yet for the first Homecoming parade SPHS has had in a long time. The rough and tough girls had it out on the football field with the Pretty Dan Goods winning the second annual powderpuff football game. The Juniors also managed a close second in the snow-sculpture contest with a Snow Palace. They sold magazines, with not too much suc- cess, but they DID try. The Class of '73 is a diversified one, from the 5th hour Chemistry wizards to the originators of the first Mike Schwartz Day. Then there are those heavy Junior boys who had a party at Starks' in the snow, and also one at Tim Strand's. President Paul Knautz will long remember the 20 students who sold stationery for their big job: Prom '72. Building Zodiac wasn't easy, but it was rewarding (boogie!) Then there was Annie Weber's party.... The year was a long one, but a good one and is sure to be remembered by all. ABOVE: Treas. D. Olmanson, Sec. B. Von Essen, Pres. P. Knautz, V. -Pres. T. Dimmel.

SENIORS « SENIORS A Divided Unit The Class of '72 has been labeled since 7th grade as the class that did everything different. They were plagued with 'Senior - itis' since first hour on August 31. They jumped right into the year by turning out a Homecoming float that had to win the prize for the most different. The float took a close second in the actual judging. Everything about this class is new and unique. For instance, instead of deciding on five candidates for Homecoming Queen and Snow Week, they picked six. They have to be the only class that has had the same president for four consecutive years, Willie Walter. The first senior class party was held at Curt's three-room apartment and from that time on the parties never stopped— and the 'regulars' didn't either. Spring ushered in a whole new era of good times for the seniors, highlighted by the ever- famous Senior Skip Day. Once again, the class of '72 showed their uniqueness by hosting the only Skip Day ever to be busted. The Senior athletes, Mrs. Thompson, and Mr. Olander will never forget that day, nor will Mike Tollefson. The year was not all parties and good times, however. The Seniors realized that it wouldn't be long before they were thrown out into that Cold Cruel World. College applications were sent out, jobs were found, engagement rings were or- dered. Graduation became the main topic of conversation among all seniors. Some were not only talking about graduation, but also about whether or not they would even graduate. But everybody pulled through, and the unique class of 1972 was a 'unity' in the end. CATHERINE S. ALBRECHT—GAA 1,2; Pep Club 1,2; Student Council 1. BETTY JANE A.

It has to be experienced to fully realize the feeling. The Class of '72 graduated this year and the Class of '73 will grad- uate next year, and so on as time goes on. But there was something special about the Class of '72 that no other class will ever have. Some of the special things are pick- ing Mr. Harvey to speak to them for the last time together. The most important thing though, is those 160 kids (including Richard) who spent so much time to- gether learning to live. Congratulations to each senior for a job well done and just for being themselves. TOP: The Class of '72 eagerly awaits their diplomas. ABOVE: Guest speaker, Mr. William Harvey, gives the Seniors their final bits of wisdom from SPHS. RIGHT: C. Custer receives her diploma from Wayne Pettis. BELOW: President of Student Body, Greg Weber, gives his farewell speech. BOTTOM: Peg Jansen receives Ending the story of 1971-72 is not an easy task.
