Aggie 1962 - Yearbook

The Northwest School is fifty-five years old.
Over 5,000 students will have received diplomas by
1962. One does not travel far in the Red River Valley
without finding graduates of the Northwest School in
positions of leadership in all walks of rural life. Up
until the late 1930’s, the Northwest School was probably
the single most important educational force in agri-
culture in Northwestern Minnesota.
The Red River Valley will be largely agricultural in
character for decades ahead. This agriculture is changing
at a faster pace each year. The Northwest School is
called upon for new and added educational service for
this rural life. This evolving role will provide post-
high school education of a technical nature. Neces-
sarily, the technical role must be geared to a farmer
who must increasingly feed more people and who must
have more knowledge and skill than any previous time
in history. This knowledge and skill will need con-
tinuous reshaping as this farmer goes through life.
The farmer of the future needs liberal arts as well as
technical arts.
The many graduates of the Northwest School will be
among those citizens interested in an orderly and
timely adjustment of this valuable education and re-
search medium-the Northwest School and Experiment
Station.

Relieve in what you are doing-in your house-in its
policy and principles-become an inseparable part of
your institution-get back of its purpose, and look with
optimism upon the unlimited field for your own endeavors
-there your influence and efforts will be felt and you
will he sure to be rewarded.

For the moment the telephones are silent and not
ringing insistently; no teachers or agriculture people
are waiting with problems to present to our super
intendent, Dr. Youngquist. But moments like this are
few and far between for this energetic “little Swede!”
Many a night a light can be seen burning in the
office of Dr. Youngquist or Mr. Reiersgord our
principal. This is a sign that they are at work on
those things that require quiet and meditation.
The daylight hours are a series of interruptions,
parent conferences, interviews, high pressure
salesmen, refractory students, harried teachers,
telephone calls, college applications, important
documents to sign, and multifarious miscellany.
Despite their hectic day and busy night, Mr.
Reiersgord and Dr. Youngquist manage to remain
entirely human. They find their school unfailingly
interesting, if demanding.
As school administrators they have few equals
and probably no superiors. They have put our
school on the map, and we are glad they are
here!

Every student at the NWSA has some talent, no matter
insignificant or valuable, to contribute to this school;
some are leaders, some are followers but all are nec-
essary for the growth and progress of the school.
The achievements of many students have been outstand-
ing and have brought recognition to themselves and this
school. The achievements of other students, although just
as valuable, have not gained this recognition or are just
in the process of being developed.
It is a difficult task to select an individual from the
Junior Class, whose accomplishments have been more
outstanding than his friends. Howard Applequist

Busy, busier-that’s how we were those first days of
school. While we were still trying to reconcile ourselves
to the idea of getting up in the morning, we were out the
door running down the sidewalk to get to breakfast before
Ma Brown locked the doors.
But there was plenty to do during study hours, for text-
books had been issued the very first day. And we went
back to our rooms twenty-five pounds heavier than when
we came to school the very first day.
Rut we managed to have a little fun directing innocent
freshmen to Kiehle or ringing the door bell before entering
the dorm.

Mr. Joseph Mazzitelli

We were one of the smaller classes in senior high, and we did
not feel too sure of ourselves. We had to find our new home-
rooms and our classes. A lot of the juniors and seniors were
very grown up and seemed as large as the teachers.
It seemed strange from being the oldest class in grade school
to being the bottom of the heap as freshmen. But everyone was
friendly and wanted to help us get started. Of course, we
received lots of advice and encouragement.
Most helpful were our teachers. They explained the plan of
the buildings and told us how to find our way around.
Another thing that made us feel at home quickly was the Aggie
Student Council that took us on tours.

meeting on Parents’ Day to nominate new
members and discuss issues of importance.

Dean and Mrs. Fenske have been at every Leader-
ship Camp since its first year began, and for good
reason, for if it had not been for Dean Fenske and
Dr. Youngquist and a few others Leadership Camp
would not have been a reality.
While busy with the summer’s activities, many of US
were pleasantly surprised to hear by mail that we were
chosen to represent the Northwest School at the Itasca
Leadership Camp. From then until the weekend prior
to the conference, we counted the days.
Finally, when September rolled around, we gathered
at the Northwest School Campus; from there we went
by car to Itaska State Park, where the University of
Minnesota maintains a summer camp. All of us were
immediately impressed with the beauty and grandeur
of the park and the headwaters of the mighty Mis-
sissippi. The camp itself is located in a beautiful
setting of Norway and white pine right on the shores
of Lake Itasca.
Because of our early arrival, we spent endless minutes
waiting for the arrival of the other Schools of Agri-
culture at Morris, Waseca, and Grand Rapids.
Accompanying us were: Dr. and Mrs. Youngquist, Dr.
Youngquist being our accomplished public speaker;
Mr. Reiersgord, our smooth, polished conversationalist;
Mr. Flancher, number one slave driver; Mr. Heckman,
foremost leader in fun and song; and Mrs. Myrtle Brown
and two assistants, whose job it was to keep us fed.

The daily “buzz” sessions were a very interesting and
important part of the program. The special programs
held at general assembly added a great deal.
Apparently the Northwest School had leader-
ship where it really counted. Here we see
temporary chairman Richard Olson congratu-
lating Rodger Swanson, who was elected
permanent chairman.
The solemn and impressive candle lighting service was
a very moving ending for our Sunday night service. A
lot of interesting and really constructive work was ac-
complished in the various committees.
A demonstration on proper parliamentary procedure was presented
by one of the groups. It brought out a lot of useful information
that many of us had not even been aware of.
37

Meals were served, dishes done, and tables were
set by the students of the various schools, while
Mr. Flancher works feverishly to get his fingers
out of the dishwasher.
During one of the after dinner leisure hours we find boys
from Morris, Grand Rapids, Crookston, and Waseca discussing
school problems and telling jokes.
We had a lot of fun putting on a mock wedding for Mr. and Mrs. Matalamaki whose wedding anniversary fell on one of
the days we were at camp. The car was decorated with crepe paper, shoe polish, and tin cans were hanging from
behind.
38
Dancing was one of the forms
of recreation that was enjoyed
by all. We also had games
along with snowball and broom
dances.

This fall the first Northwest School Headwaters
Club was organized with the purpose of furthering
leadership qualities, and provi ing leadership in
key campus organizations.
Topics are reviewed and discussed among the
club and a considerable amount of thought is
given to these ideas, many of which were in-
troduced to the entire group of students from all
the schools of Agriculture that were present at
the Itaska retreat.
Mr. Reiersgord was always around to help us at
Leadership Camp.

Master of Ceremonies for Variety
Day was Stewart Boelter a Senior
from Crookston.
Claudia Hanson sang “Ma He’s
Making Eyes At Me.”
Here is James Kovar playing his “Love Me To Pieces” was sang
guitar and singing his way merrily by Georgia Ovsak. It certainly made
to success. a hit with many.
’61 Varieties came later but sparkled with enthusiasm which carried
over into other activities for the rest of the year. Light and more
serious acts were tied together by Stuart Boelter, who was an ex-
cellent master at the microphone.
Some of the acts were far-fetched portrayals of the teenage idols;
others were expressions of genuine homespun talent in guitar play-
ing, accordion playing and impersonations. The piano was used to
accompany many acts, and cut out completely the use of records. So
popular were the acts that most of the student body hated to leave
after the curtain was closed and the “house lights” were turned on.

In accordance with its national charter,
scholarship, leadership, character, and
service are the four main points that are
taken into consideration when a person
is nominated for admittance into the
National Honor Society. In order to be a
member in this organization, one must
maintain a scholastic average of 3.00
throughout his high-school years, have
an excellent character, and show a willing-
ness to serve the school. Twelve members
are elected annually, six from the senior
class and six from the junior class. They
are elected by the faculty and the former
members of the society. The newly
elected are inducted into membership in
a formal ceremony at an assembly near
the end of the school year.
Some of the various duties of this or-
ganization are to take roll at every as-
sembly and serve coffee in the gymnasium
on Parents' Day. Meetings are held when
the necessity arises, with Mr. Reiersgord
acting as advisor.

The Dining Hall was all decked out for the
Junior-Senior Banquet. All the tables were
decorated with sparkling candles set in a
sparkly sea foam, and at each setting there
were place setting cards and a menu.
“Ma” Brown and her dining hall employees
planned a very delicious meal, which con-
sisted of: Swiss steak, mashed potatoes,
gravy, peas, bread and butter, and last but
not least the dessert, Apple Crisp, which
everybody was anxiously waiting for. It
seems that the dessert is always the favorite
of the students, and we were sure that every-
one could have eaten all night, but we all
wanted to go to the Gym and dance to the

special occasion.

All winter long everyone waits for the time
when they can dust off their suits and re-
move their formals from the storage closet.
It’s time for the Prom.
The theme for the Prom was “SAYNORA”
which means “till we meet again.”
Our prom, held on the night of March 12th,
was the climax of our Junior year. By nine
o’clock, the gymnasium was filled with
handsome young men in their Sunday best,
and lovely young ladies in gowns of silk and
lace. This night of splendor has ended, but
it will always live in our memories.

As we find teenagers of many backgrounds and types in
school, we realize they are of many faiths and denomi-
nations. Yet each seeks God in his own way.
In these crucial years that may determine the course of our
lives, we need influence of religion to help us make right
decisions and guide us in the present and future. We
nurture our maturing faith in many ways.
Most of us choose to attend the services of our own churches
Sunday mornings to pause and have our spirits renewed and
to refresh our faith, so that we can face the pressures of
the week with serene anticipation. Some of us contribute
to the services in youth choirs, lifting clear, fresh voices
in anthems expressing the glory of God.
Sermons arouse our interest, challenge our intellect. Some-
times they answer our questions, relieve our doubts.
Many of us like to have prayer meetings and get more
spiritual emphasis during the weeks, and therefore we have

known as Tri-Hi-Y. a part of the Young Women’s Christian
Association, and the Young Men’s Christian Association.

One of the school’s most active organizations, the
Carpentry Club, is primarily concerned in developing
skill in all phases of carpentry. Not only that, but
loyalty, friendship, honesty, integrity and leadership
are also stressed.
Each club member must have a specific project, and
many of the boys do outstanding work. There is a real
satisfaction in putting your skills and energies into
creating something where you can actually see the
results.

Student Body President, Edward Huot
The purpose of the Student Council is to give
the students a voice in school affairs. It serves
as a mediator between the faculty and the student
body, which has delegated spokesmanship to its
elected representatives. These representatives
have been elected by their respective classes
while their president has been elected by the
entire student body.
If students have problems they feel should be
presented to the faculty for discussion, the stu-
dent council members listen to all sides of the
issues and make sure that the faculty understands
the desires of the students they represent, thus
the student council is in reality a very important
connecting link between the students and their
administration.
Student Government excels in preparation
for homecoming, the junior-senior prom, dances,
convocations, and Parents’ Day and promotes
projects such as co-operation between the classes.
One of the recent issues that is being worked out
concerns the “Teen-Age Code”-a list of proper
dress and conduct rules that is to be adopted by
the students on our campus. Not only has this
code met with a great deal of support from the
students, but it has received widespread approva
from the faculty.

The “Rouser” is well known to the students as
the campus newspaper, and to be called this it
must be informative. In order to keep our students
up to date on school events the staff has to be
quite large, and many extra hours must be spent
by everyone to check through every article for
content and value.
After each paper is sent to press and students
have gotten their copies the English department
sends a corrected copy back to the advisor.
The advisor for the school paper is Conrad published-
Kvamme, who was formerly an assistant county
agent in Norman County.
Elna Krueger is this year’s editor and her coeditors
are Sylvia Magsam, and Shirley Piker.
Sometimes it is these people who get all the
praise, but somehow this year the people working
as typists, proof readers, and reporters have been
running so much about the campus that YOU just
can’t help but notice them, especially so when

To the uninitiated, getting an 88 page yearbook to press in about
eight weeks may seem easy. But experienced staff members know
that’s not one too many days!
First there’s planning, with reliance on those with originality for
fresh picture ideas. Then there’s the dummy pages and scores of
layouts to be made. Following this is the scheduling of pictures
and arrange a time for them to be taken. Finally the frantic rush
is on to complete the multiples, themes, stories; label and type
the material under the pictures, and make the final check forerrors
before the pages can be sent in to meet the final deadline, for
publ ic ation.

“Kiss me quickly, you fool!”
This year’s winter play was a perennial favorite, “Bargain
Bride,” a hilarious type of comedy that is foolproof even for
rank amateurs. The Junior Class did very well, putting on
the play at our school for the first time.
It is difficult to figure out what the expenses for this play
would be when considering the rented clothing, theater equip-
ment, and royalties.

Shelstad, Diane Schultz, Gary Tvinnereim, Shirley Piker,

With the addition of new vestments acquired this
fall the choir has made a fine appearance at the
Parents’ Day ceremonies, and will take art in the
Christmas program on December 20 as we p l as sing-
ing for the play “When The Chimes Rang.” The
choir will also take part in spring festivities; the
Baccalaureate service, Graduation, and the spring
concert. We have a male quartet and male octet and
a small girls’ chorus that will take part during the
Winter Shows.
The girls’ glee club that meets on Monday afternoons
to practice, will sing at the Christmas Program and
the spring programs as well as at the Spring Concert.
At these practices the girls work out the trouble
spots in their songs and under Mr. Thorson’s ex-
cellent direction they try to get the songs worked up
to near perfection.
Mr. Thorson is the director for the band, choir, and all
the musical organizations. We call him the “The Music
Man.”

The piano training department under the direction of Mr. Donald
Anderson; has had extensive training at the University of
Minnesota, and at Teachers College, Columbia University,
New York.
Beverly Shelstad and Carol Fehr are the two girls who are
taking organ lessons this year. Throughout the year they
are given opportunities to play for different activities.
57
The piano course of study offers opportunity for
thorough training in both beginning basics and
advanced piano. Training in beginning, college
prep., and the first two years of college level
studies can be acquired. The full course is
divided into 10 levels, or approximately 8 years
of study.
Beginning students are guided into visual and
auditory keyboard knowledge of all twelve major
and minor tonalities. Ear training is particularly
stressed.
Intermediate and advanced students are guided
in five phases of studies.
1. Intermediate and advanced harmony through
creative effort.
2. Technique, or skill development and basic
music knowledge.
3. Intermediate and advanced repertory studies.
4. Intermediate and advanced sight reading
training.
5. Review testin and relearning basic skills
and understandings.
Mr. Anderson also offers beginning organ for the
first time this year. This division of the department
will be broadened as time, facilities, and
preparation are extended.
Chances are Carol and Gary enjoy practicing on
the piano very much.

Some of the time we have to go over a number
many times to play it with more accuracy.

For pep meetings, on the football field or at
basketball games, at assemblies, and especially
in its own spring concert, the Aggie band in-
spires spirit or gives music-lovers an inspiring
treat.
This year the band has been featured at one of
the assembly programs. Mr. Thorson put on a
real show by having his students put on a
demonstration of the different instruments in the
band, as well as having the Clarinet Quartet,
Saxophone Quartet, and some other groups play
to show everyone how harmony is formed.
The spring concert is the real test of the band’s
excellence. It is in this performance that the
audience recognizes the musicianship of our
band when they present marches by John Philip
Sousa, as well as modem and old favorites.
The band’s final appearance of the year is at
commencement. This is a sad time for many
because they will be leaving an organization in
which they have had fun, and in which they have
been an important and worth while member.

There is nothing quite as exciting
as the clear call of the trumpet
or the mellow tones of the coronet.
A good march would not be com-
plete without the smear of the
trombone.

are the instruments that play the

Because they like to play, and learn
more about music, some people that play
different instruments have joined to-
gether to form small ensembles, which
is just one other way to build in tech-
nique and reading power outside of the
regular band rehearsal.
Not only does this group have fun read-
ing new music, they can relax and clown
on certain times. Although some of the
practice time is scheduled by Mr. Thor-
son, most of their practice is done on
their own.
Throughout the year these small groups
have an opportunity to play for such
occasions as Parents’ Day, the Christ-
mas concert, and during the assembly
pro grams.

The Minnesota Vikings and Northwest Aggies had
more in common than inexperience in 1961. Their
football teams had similar seasons. The Vikings
and Aggies both showed that they could play ex-
cellent football and yet at times their efforts
didn't pan out with victory.
64
Although only two regulars, Co-captains Don
Strickler and George Proulx, returned this year,
the team proved it could play good football after
they got some experience under their belts.
The Aggies played especially well in the Oak
Grove and Northwood games, winning by 19-0 and
27-0 respectively. In the Homecoming game with
Northwood, the Aggies played hardnosed football
throughout the entire game, not allowing but a few
yards the entire game.
The team consisted of many young and inexperi-
enced men. Injuries took a tremendous toll as the
first few weeks progressed. It seemed as though
the percentage had caught up with us in depriving
us of many sturdy boys.
Outstanding in their contributions this year were
Co-captain George Proulx, offensive and defensive
star, and a fiery leader on and off the field; and
Don Strickler, who played the major part of the
season with a bad leg.
The men who were an important facet in instilling
gridiron know-how were coaches Hershel Lysaker
and Joe Mazzitelli, and Leon Flancher and Rod
Flancher and Rod Mosher.

Football practice began a week before school com-
menced. The first few days were spent getting in shape
and going over basic fundamentals. Toward the end of
this rigorous week, the first scrimmage was held. Those
of us not in condition experienced sore muscles, tired
bodies, and many bruises. As camp ended, a sigh of
relief and a feeling of pride were felt among the boys
who had tried to do their very best.
When school began, many boys, who were unable to
come the first week, checked out uniforms and really
worked to make up for lost time. As the season pro-
gressed and boys began to fit into the different posi-
tions and formations, they received full satisfaction
for their work.

With the team hard hit by graduation and illness,
Coach Lysaker faced a major rebuilding job for
the 1961-62 season. However, games can be
won when unselfish team play and good sports-
manship are practiced, as exemplified in the
aspirants who diligently practiced every evening
in hopes of making the starting five.
Captain Dick Olson, the only returning regular,
was the tallest man on the squad at 6 feet,
2 inches. The only other six-footer was Ernie
Swift. The juniors, especially at the guard
spots, showed a lot of promise.
The loyal fans and schoolmates of the Aggie
team are pleased with the brand of entertaining
ball the boys have played thus far. The team

field goal to put the Aggies out in front.

Pat Larson, Sophomore flash, tries in a vain attempt to
block the pass.
70
Dan Stahn puts in two points to aid the winning cause.

“See anything you like, Ernie?” It looks like Dennis
missed the action on this one.
As always, Ernie is determined to get the ball
whether he fouls or not. You just have to give him
credit for trying!
Stretching back and up, Dick Olson strains for a rebound
in the Red Lake Falls game.
Coach Lysaker gives pointers to the starting five in last
minute preparation for the first game of the season.

Captain Mark Hoper and Coach Mr. Beresford.
They call it a lonely sport. Yes, a cross coun-
try runner is likely to be alone or running with
the pack, depending upon how good he is. This
year the Northwest runners were not alone out
front all of the time, but they gave a consider-
able amount of competition to their competitors.
This is cross country, the toughest sport of
all. There are no substitutions, no bands
playing, or cheering by cheerleaders to urge
them on, and there is no chance of passing the
blame for his own poor performance on to a
teammate. Each man is on his own and can
prove his ability for all the world to see.
It is called a lonely sport. Though dramatic
and thrilling, all too often there are few spec-
tators to see, only the few faithful fans who
recognize "class" when they see it.

get ahead of you.”

FIRST ROW: Ed Huot, Larry Paupst, Richard Peck, Dick Hutton, Richard Sheldon, John Pake, Gerald Helgeson. SEC­
OND ROW: Ron Phillipp, Richard Beauchane, Wayne Nelson, Richard Karr, LaVerne Janisch, Steven Beyer, James
Kovar, Wesley Pake, THIRD ROW: Marvin Peterson, Drew Larson, Edward Kovar, Allan Stromstad, Wilfred Huot, Andy
Peterson, Romald Thorson, Timothy Eisenhardt.
Any sport that attracts so many young, aspirIng
candidates must have something to offer. Aggie
men have shown their love for wrestling by winning
many matches through the years, and it looks as
if this season will not be an exception.
IIAII SQ UA D: FRONT ROW: Co-Captain Eddie Huot, Coach Rodney Mosher, Co-Captain John Pake. SECOND
ROW: Ronald Philipp, Ronald Beauchane, Steven Beyer, James Kovar, Allan Stromstad, Wilfred Huot, Richard Hutton,
Richard Sheldon, Gerald Helgeson, Wesley Pake.

Even though the wrestler has to face his opponent alone, there is plenty of team spirit. You can almost hear the team
members giving advice and encouragement.
“Give it to him, Steve!” Lightweight Steve Beyer is really putting the pressure on.
Sometimes the problem doesn’t lie in pinning your man, it’s a tough enough job just getting him off of your back so he
doesn’t pin you.
75

Catching this picture of Dick Hutton and John Pake was quite an accomplishment. Two of our star wrestlers, these
boys are usually moving so fast that it's hard to keep up with them.
Even the Aggie matmen have their ups and downs. One of our boys has just lost a match and the victor's teammates
are rushing out to congratulate him. Losing as well as winning is a part of any sport.
Here's what happens when a wrestler has the misfortune to get on the "wrong side" of his opponent. The probable
result of this one, a pin for our opponents.

DI NI NG HALL STAFF: FRONT ROW: Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. McEwen, Mrs. Ottness, Mrs. Austin, Mrs.

Besides feeding hundreds of
students and teachers each day,
this crew, with the guidance of
Mrs. Brown, plans and prepares
many dinners and luncheons.
Sports dinners, District School
men’s banquets, the spring ban-
quet, and a host of banquets
are served during the Winter
Shows.
Perhaps we take these people
for granted-who give so gen-
erously for our benefit-their
time. For the most part, they
are the truly behind-the-scenes
workers.
Mrs. Brown, who is better known
to the students as “Ma” Brown,
has a very tight schedule during
each day planing out the meals
and seeing that everyone is
getting fair treatment both in
the “Aggie Inn,” and the cafe-
teria.
Mrs. Myrtle Brown is the manager of
our very fine cafeteria.

Miss Berneil Nelson.
Miss Lilie Christianson, Mrs. Esther Erlandson.
Each has her own job, but they all work together to keep
the different offices running smoothly and everybody
happy. Miss Nelson has a job that does not give her very
much time for anything but work during the day. She is
our Librarian, which means that she must order all of
the new books and magazines that will be added to our
book shelves. Along with this job she is kept very busy
working as secretary for our principal Mr. Reiersgord.
The two friendly faces that are always seen behind the
bars of the room next to the superintendent’s office,
are those of Mrs. Erlandson, and Miss Lillian Christian-
son. These two charming ladies are the ones all of the
faculty and students who work for the University like
to meet quite often. Their job is to handle the pay-roll,
and collect the tuition from the students. They are
known to all as “the accountants.”
A friendly greeting is always given to all who pass by
the open door of the faculty secretary, Mrs. “Butch”
Gebhardt. “Tillie,” as she is known to everyone, has
the very tiring job of typing out all the correspondence
for the men in the experiment end of this Institution.
