Dairy Becomes Alief, Students
Travel to Nearby Districts
The Alief community has come a long
way from the 1890's town that was
informed that it must change its name,
Dairy, in order to obtain postal service so
that it would not be confused with the
town of Daisy.
In 1935, Alief gained the benefit of
electricity and by 1940 the town had
grown to a total population of 150.
In 1934, 90 first through seventh
graders were taught in a three story
building. At the same time, high school
In 1934, 90 first through seventh graders

enrollment had declined so that the few
remaining high school students had to be
bussed to HISD and Ft. Bend ISD
schools.

Sophomoresand the Juniors.
After their halftime per-
formance, the Blue Bombers
were assaulted with water
balloons by the cheerleaders.
The Juniors emerged victors
at tho ond of the game with a
score of 7-6.
Elsik Outgrew Hastings South
Now Future Expansion Needed
In 1964, state laws were altered stating
that high schools must consist of twelve
grade levels rather than ten. As a result,
high school enrollment increased and in
1964, Alief Junior-Senior High School
(presently Alief Middle School) was
opened. In its first year, it housed junior
high school and ninth grade. Each year an
additional grade was added with the first
senior class graduating in 1967.
The original Elsik High School, presently
Hastings South, was opened in 1975 with
a freshman class of 313 students. In ten
years, Elsik outgrew one building and filled
another to maximum capacity with
almost 3,000 students.
Because Elsik's growth is expected to
continue, construction for new wings on
Elsik’s north and west sides is tentatively
scheduled to begin in January, 1986 and
end in the fall of 1987. When the
construction is finished, Elsik is expected
to hold approximately 4,200 students.

Opening 5Growth,
Diversification,
And House Bill 72
Influence Activities
As Elsik has grown and changed in size and interests, so have the
many activities in which students participate.
Some of Elsik’s early clubs such as History Club and Library Club have
disappeared, but new clubs such as Mu Alpha Theta, Wet Paint and
Academic Decathlon have formed.
The first homecoming was celebrated in 1979 when the first senior
class that graduated returned home. New sports and teams such as
soccer, swimming and diving were also added.
Organizations have also grown. The first Revelliers squad consisted
of only 36 members and has 70 members today. The first band had
only 24 members and now has 157 members. Clubs such as NHS and
Student Council have grown from 22 and 23 members to 130 and 166
members.
House Bill 72 raised eligibility standards so that participants in any
extracurricular activities who were failing one class were ineligible.
Although involvement has maintained, participants and sponsors
were given a new challenge with HB 72’s passage.

They Tried But. . .
The Points Never Came
The opponent,
Spring Woods, was the
same team that Elsik
challenged last year.
“Although we won last
year, the score was
only 3-0 and the
victory didn't come
until the last thirty
seconds when we
finally got that crucial
field goal."
remembered '84
Graduate Kathie
Lanigan.
Spring Woods
scored their field goal
with 11:55 left in the
fourth quarter, and at
the seven second
mark, the Rams
scored their only two
points of the game on
a safety. “It seemed
like no matter what
we did. we just
couldn't put any
points on the board,"
remarked Quarterback
Rusty Skinner.
Senior Gary Neal
explained. "The game
was a major
disappointment. We
have a better team;
we just weren't ready
for the game."
The night was
perfect. As the first
few people trickled
into the stadium,
expectancy and high
hopes filled the air. No
one would have
guessed that the pep
rally at school
Thursday morning was
a total disaster.
“Everyone was really
bummed out because
of the new rules about
not wrapping the
school and staying
behind the black line
at the pep rally.”
explained Senior
Wendi Pena.
Sophomore Karen
Speanburg said. “I was
really disappointed at
the pep rally. I would
have hated to have
been in the shoes of
the football players.”
At the game, typical
noises of the band
playing Jump, the
Revelliers' chants and
cowbells on
homecoming mums
filled the air. Every few
seconds, there was a
scream of delight as
someone saw a friend
that had graduated
and welcomed him
home.
This was the third
game of the season
and the varsity
football team had
managed to maintain
a 2-1 record. “After
defeating Lee and
Katy in the first games
of the season, the first
game of district
competition held high
hopes for everyone.”
said Senior Jill
Edmunson.

demonstrated a
heartbreaking loss,

Homecoming 9Breaking Tradition
Seniors Profit
From Dance
"Why are there so
many people
dancing?" Sophomore
Alicia Parada
commented
sarcastically. It was 10
p.m.. 15 minutes after
the dance had begun
and the dance floor
was still empty!
Nevertheless, the
DJ.'s kept playing
those records
enthusiastically. Just
when things were
beginning to drag a bit
too much.
Homecoming Queen
nominees Nora
Wilkerson and Mitzi
McDowell decided to
get things going and
took to the dance
floor. With this cue.
others soon followed.
Before the dance,
most people had been
at the game or out to
eat. The fact that Elsik
was losing didn't seem
to affect anyone's
mood. They came with
the intention of having
a good time and it
certainly looked as if
that was being
accomplished. "...
We're making a good
time of it.”
Sophomore Shannon
Collins said.
Homecoming Queen
Kim Adams arrived
around 10:30 with her
boyfriend Tim Moore.
Kim was in something
of a daze, but then
who wouldn't be? "I'm
real excited." she
said. "I guess it's a
neat feeling to know
you're a queen. It's
hard to believe. I
guess - just - thanks
everyone!" She was
almost breathless, and
her eyes glowed, the
perfect image of an
ecstatic person.
By 11 p.m. the
South House cafeteria
was filled with a crowd
of energetic dancers.
10 Homecoming
Songs of the night
were Top 40 favorites:
She-Bop. Borderline,
Let's Go Crazy, Just
Called To Say Love
You. The Reflex, Wake
Me Up Before You
Go-Go. and When
Doves Cry. The D.J.'s
dedicated We’re Not
Gonna Take It to the
seniors. Halfway
through the dance
they introduced and
congratulated the
duchesses, queen
nominees and the
queen. The smell of
popcorn dominated
the air. By the atrium
couples were having
photographs taken.
Although many came
with dates, a number
of students just came
with friends.
Attendance was
definitely up from
previous years, and
for the first time in the
history of the dance,
the Senior Class made
a profit from tickets.
Attire varied. There
was really no dress
code but the rules of
the school dress code
still applied. The
students took this
opportunity to dress
up a bit. Almost all of
the guys wore suits,
some even renting
tuxedoes. The girls
were in formals or
party dresses.
The crowd began to
disperse about
midnight. Post-dance
plans? "Cruise
Westheimer!"
exclaimed Sophomore
Richard Palacio.
Junior Jay Anderson
commented
thoughtfully. "I think I
forgot to tell my
parents that I'm not
coming home
tonight.” The night
ended when the D.J.'s
played the ballad Drive
by the Cars.

But Disappointing Season Finale

Houston Chronicle
Reporter Eddie Sefko.
with the help of Head
Coach Sciba. capsuled
Elsik's past football
records and told the
story of the Ram’s
"Cinderella season.”
Cinderella season it
was; the Rams had a
5-1 district record
and, if they defeated
Hastings on November
9. they alone would
have captured the
17-5A District
Championship.
Senior receiver
Doug Schamburg
commented, "they
say that Hastings has
all the good athletes,
but I think we’ve
proven we have a few
good athletes this
year.” Going into the
game, the team had
already secured a spot
in the play-offs but a
victory over Hastings
could have provided
"a District
Championship and the
personal satisfaction
of knowing that we
(Elsik) beat Hastings.”
remarked Senior
George Craig.
Senior Don Ballard,
"just couldn’t believe
that we lost.” as
Hastings kept a
perfect 8-0 record in
its series with Elsik.
"The game looked
great when we were
ahead 6-0. We thought
we already had the
game in the bag.” said
Senior Becky Bettega.
Then, with 4:44 left
in the second quarter,
Hastings Runningback
Ken Franklin scored a
touchdown and. with
four seconds until
intermission, Franklin
scored a field goal to
give Hastings a 9-7
lead. "After the first
half, the game was all
downhill.” said '84
Graduate Kevin Allen.
"We were already
looking ahead to the
Astrodome.” said
Senior Rusty Skinner.
Because they lost to
Hastings, the team
would have to face the
second in state ranked
Madison Marlins on
November 16. For this
game the picture
wasn’t as pretty - Elsik
was picked to lose
27-7. "If we’re going
to win. Curtis (Larry)
has got to get through
their defense,"
concluded Senior Gary
Neal. Throughout the
game. Larry was
allowed only 33 yards
on 22 carries and
Elsik's offense was
shut down for a 35-0
loss.
Outstanding
linebacker for the
game. Shawn
Forestall, had eight
tackles and two
interceptions for the
evening. “The loss
hurt but. overall, we
had a great season,"
said Senior Gary Neal.

"They're gonna win.
The Senior Class of

Senior Citizens Coach
George Craig had
similar thoughts. "We
worked hard and
we're hungry. There
ain't nothing stopping
us."
Underclassmen had
mixed thoughts. "We
want the juniors to win
because we’re tired of
the seniors winning,
and we’re gonna beat
the seniors next year

claimed Sophomore
Chaula Gandhi.
"Powder Puff gives

lot of fun," said Junior
Mary Meredith. "I was
tired of sitting in the

Junior Alice Hsiao. "I
wanted to show my

Senior Teri Packard
said, "It's fun to see
the temporary role

Jefferson reflected.
"This game has
brought unity in our
class, and new friends
that I never knew I
had." Tracy Geise
agreed. "Everyone is
so supportive - like a
family."
"It’s my senior year
and I wanted to get
involved in some
extracurricular
activities." explained
Richard Rennison.
"The Blue Bombers
was the best one I
could think of.
Besides, for one day.
we can fool around
without getting in
trouble!” Junior Tim
Wardlow admitted that
he "especially liked
being trained by the
drill team!"
"During Powder

relax a bit.”
commented Senior
Jason Martinez. "The
Blue Bombers offer a
release from school
pressures and show us
that we can be silly
and humorous even
here." Freshman
Jimmy Harrison simply
exclaimed. "It's the
best way I've started a
Thursday morning!"
The game started at
7 p.m. on the side of
the stands, the Blue
Bombers could be
seen (and heard)
causing their usual
uproar. “No food or
drinks, you guys!"
reminded Senior Sue
Lee. "Remember,
you're the drill team!”
Belinda Tunon

Doug Schaumburg,

Then the Blue

their earlier routine.
The game lasted a
little under an hour
and a half, with the
seniors leading all the
way to the final score
of 16-6. A surprise
came when "Blue

16 Our TownOur Town Sets An Unusual Stage
On October 11, the
opening night of Our
Town, an empty stage
greeted the audience
in the Little Theatre.
This production was
different from past
performances because
the author. Thorntorn
Wilder, required the
players to pantomime
a majority of the
props. Scenery, also,
was minimal. "There's
some scenery for
those of you who feel
you have to have it.”
said Stage Manager
Shawn Fields to the
audience at one time.
Despite the lack of
:oncrete props, the
audience was very
receptive and the play
a great success.
The Theatre
Department put a
great deal of time and
effort into the
preparation of this
play. Auditions were
held August 30 and
31. Rehearsal began
almost immediately
afterwards, on
September 4, and
continued until the
day before the
performance. The last
week was the most
tiring. The students
would stay as late as 8
p.m. sometimes.
Everyone went a little
crazy that week.
There were a few
problems with the
light and sound crews
which were
straightened out as
soon as possible.
Technical Stage
Manager Junior Patti
Parsons probably
experienced the most
pressure being the
only inquestionable
authority next to Ms.
Boone. But everything
paid off on opening
night.
Backstage activities
were hectic as the
tension built. The time
was 7:20. "Circle up in
five minutes.” Drama
instructor Carolyn
Boone suddenly
announced. She was

cast members spent as much
referring to a tradition
in the Drama
Department. Five
minutes prior to a
show, everyone who is
involved in the play
links hands in a circle
while Ms. Boone offers
words of
encouragement and
often some very
personal messages. It
ends with everyone
whispering "Break a
leg!" and dispersing
the circle.
The play is about
how the little things in
life matter. Junior
Christopher Lundquist
and Sophomore
Shannon Collins
played the main
characters, George
Gibbs and Emily Webb.
The major supporting
roles of George's and
Emily’s parents were
portrayed by Senior
Chris Everett and
Junior Bobbie Wagner
as Mr. and Mrs. Gibbs,
and Seniors Wil Clark
and Penni Siemens as
Mr. and Mrs. Webb.
The most significant
and most difficult role
was Senior Shawn
Fields' part as the
Stage Manager, who
served as a narrator
for the story. The play
was shown three
times, opening on
October 11 and
performed again in
both a matinee and
night presentation on
October 13.
Closing night saw
mixed emotions in the
cast and crew. Tears
of both joy and
sadness were shed. "I
can't believe it’s over
so soon.” said
Freshman Claudia
Jiminez. "It’s so sad.”
Sophomore Michele
Krohn, a
Townsperson, made
sure Patti’s efforts did
not go unrecognized.
"Wait, I want to say
something,” she
announced as the
circle was beginning to
break up. "Before we
go out there I just
want to say Patti,
please disregard any
rude remarks, dirty
looks or name-calling
on our part because
you did a great job as
stage manager." Patti,
who was already in
tears, thanked
everyone for being
cooperative. Feelings
of relief and
satisfaction prevailed
as the drama room
was cleared. "You
won't believe this
now." Christopher
Lundquist said, "but
you're going to miss
rehearsals. Next week,
when you get home at
three, you'll feel
empty. You will."
At 10:45 everyone
headed out to Wil's to
celebrate a job well
done. As he walked
out Freshman Jody
Ezernack stated
happily, "This is the
first thing I’ve been
involved in at Elsik and
it has been a
wonderful first
experience!” By C.

Autumn Fest
Encourages Yearly
School Participation
“We’re pulling out
all the stops to make
this festival by far the
biggest and best
ever.” stated the
general chairman of
the Alief Autumn
Festival. Bill Henry.
Additions to the
festival included many
new booths and a
dance on Saturday
night. Mel Garret and
“The Texas Travelers"
played at the free
dance on October 6.
Other highlights of
the festival included
the largest selection of
rides ever for the
festival, homemade
arts and crafts and ten
thousand pumpkins
that were given away
by the West Houston
Medical Center.
Not only was the
festival better than
ever, but the parade
also provided a good
time for those
watching and
participating in it. The
parade included many
civic organizations and
school groups. Groups
from Elsik that
participated included
the Marching Ram
Band and Flag Corps,
the Revelliers. the
cheerleaders and. for
the first time, the
Student Council had a
truck full of members.
President Tracy
Kagan explained. “We
wanted to represent
Elsik. The parade got
us publicity and we
had a lot of fun.”
Senior Cheerleader
Julie Johnson. After
participating in the
parade for the past
three years said. “This
is my last parade
ya’ll."
One of the reasons
that the parade was

so memorable was
that it was on a
Saturday morning and,
after staying out late
on Friday night, many
of the participants
would have preferred
to be at home asleep.
Senior Revellier Angie
Hudson remarked. “I
am too tired. I wanted
to sleep in. Why can't
they do this in the
afternoon?”

Autumn Fost and Parade 19Having Fun, Setting Traditions
Ten Years Marked
With Many Changes
Those were the days
“when we had fun at
school,” remembered
Coach Gary Pless of
his first year at Elsik
(1976-77). In the
beginning, activities
such as
Student-Faculty
Volleyball games.
Christmas plays
involving students
and faculty. Pep Rally
skits by teachers and
the first Freshman
Slave Market (Sale) in
which not only
freshmen but teachers
also were sold, were
not uncommon.

who has taught at
Elsik since its first
year, remembers

The second year
(76-77). Mr. Bobby
Porter became the
vice-principal and the
third year (77-78).
Mrs. Elsie Kneeling
came to Elsik from
Hastings as one of the
two assistant
principals.
The first students
had a big hand in
starting many
traditions. As eighth
graders, they
assembled and
decided Elsik's
mascot, colors, alma
mater and fight song.
“When they voted on
the colors, there was
a tie between green
and white and purple
and white. Just before

were held in ten
upstairs rooms
(because the school
was not finished) and
Mrs. O'Donnell was
the only principal. She
said, "One of the
funniest things about
the school was that at
the football games, we
always had our band,
drill team and all the
parents and students
while the other team's
stands were practically
empty because they
were freshman and
sophomore games.”

said Mrs. O'Donnell.
Mrs. Marti Toulmin

tradition for the girls
cross country team in
her first year at Elsik
(77-78) which was
also the first year for
Elsik to have a cross
country team.
Actually, there weren't
enough people running
to have an official
team. Five people are
required to score
team points. For the

explained Coach

"There were about
eight of us who rented
a condo at Padre

morning and came
home Wednesday
night. It was great to
get away for a few
days!” explained
Senior Michelle Hahn.
"Spring Break gives
us a chance to take it
easy for a week - it is
the only holiday, other
than Easter, during
the spring semester,"
said Senior Vijaya Rao.
The most popular
activities during Break
were going to the
beach and snow
skiing. While some
students just got their
friends together for
fun. others took trips
with their families or
other groups.
Junior Shannon
Pratt said. "My family
always goes skiing
over Spring Break.
Colorado is a great
place to "get away" to
for a week."
Journalism students,
including Ramblings
and Rampage staff
and Journalism I
students, took their
annual trip to the ILPC
Convention at the
University of Texas at
Austin.
Sophomore Dan
Billman, Rampage
reporter, was the
recipient of traditional
initiation rites. "I knew
I was going to get it
when I heard a bunch
of noise outside of my
door and then,
everyone was in my
room at once." said
Dan.
"Spring Break is a
necessary part of the

couldn't believe it
when I heard that the
School Board even
considered not having
it next year. I love
Spring Break!" said
Freshman Cheryl

Foxworth And Rocha
Worse Than Mask
Over 200 parents,
teachers, and students
came to see this
special presentation,
an hour of Elsik’s best
talent. The lights grew
dim and the curtain
swung open, displaying
The Light Band ‘‘We’re
not a real band just a
group of friends. It
gave us a good feeling.
We're in Students for
Christ because it's
neat to be in school
and still relate to God.
replied Lead Singer
Erica Cheng.
Six out of the ten
acts were dances,
three of which were
Revellier dances.
They also danced with
Chris Lundquist in It's
Cats.
It’s Frightening was
the only act without
music. It was a skit
from a book
performed by Tangy
Foxworth and Diana
Rocha. “I'd wanted to
be in the Talent Show
since I was a
freshman and this
was my last year, so
why not.” replied
Diana. Minutes before
the show Chris
Lundquist came up to
them and asked if
they would mind if
Jason would take off
his mask before they
screamed and ran off
stage to add a little
more to their skit.
They agreed and it
brought laughs from
everyone.
For a finale every
participant in the
Talent Show sang We
Are the World.

Reagan Re-Elected, Snow Blankets Houston Area
Around the globe,
there were human
tragedies and
triumphs. Most
Americans felt a
surging optimism
despite the chaotic
events around them.
Renewed
nationalism resulted
from the XXIII Olympic
Games and the
presidential election.
The United States
swept through the
events to emerge with
174 gold medals. The
men's gymnastics
team won the team
competition and
Houstonian Mary Lou
Retton won the
women's all-around
gymnastics. Track star
Carl Lewis streaked
through to win four
gold medals and the
swim teams ran away
with 27 out of 29 gold.
After the glory of
the games came
another victory for
Ronald Reagon who
won in a ‘landslide'
over Walter Mondale.
However, this did not
detract from Geraldine
Ferraro’s achievement
as Mondale's running
mate and the first
woman to run on a
presidential ticket.
Though inflation was
down, unemployment
remained high and
over 35 million people
lived at the poverty
line, the highest
number in 20 years.
William Schroeder
received an artificial
heart, lived through a
stroke, and did
miraculously well
afterwards. However,
the controversial
baboon heart
transplant on Baby
Fae was not
successful, as the
infant died three
weeks later of kidney
failure.
Human tragedies
devastated cities and
killed hundreds. In
Bhopal. India, a gas
leak poisoned over
2.000 people and a
gas explosion in
Mexico City killed
hundreds. In Ethiopia
millions of people
starved to death due
to drought and
famine. And in the
United States, the
McDonalds slayings in
July shocked the
nation.
BandAid. the British
relief group, inspired
the likes of USA for
Africa and similiar
efforts from Australian
and Canadian artists.

Current Events 29Legislature Forces H.B. 72 Reforms
As school let out for
summer vacation in
May 1984. many
students did not
realize how
tremendously the
special summer
session of the Texas
legislature would
affect their lives.
House Bill 72,
sponsored by H. Ross
Perot’s Select
Committee on Public
Education (SCOPE),
and H.B. 246, initiated
many education
changes.
Seniors returned to
school disheartened
because of the loss of
final exemptions.
Senior government
teacher Mrs. Brandt
remarked. ‘‘I miss
them (exemptions). By
second semester I
think you've done all
the finals taking you
need to do. I
understand the intent
of the legislation, but I
don’t think it will
necessarily prove
anything."
"Even though exams
are important, the
Seniors have worked
for the privilege of
exemptions . . .’’ said
Senior Ray Schmidt.
H.B. 72 instituted
the ‘no pass no play'
rule which affected all
extracurricular
activities. It stated
that if students were
not passing all six
classes at the end of
the six weeks, they
would be ineligible for
the following six
weeks.
Girls Cross Country
and Track Coach Liz
Parke said. "I feel it is
a little harsh. Most
coaches stress
academics and agree
that grades are
important, but I feel
that maybe we should
be allowed to check
grades after three
weeks instead of six."
The bill also stated
that students would
not be allowed more
than ten "school
business” absences
per year or over eight
hours of participation
due to activities per
week.Teachers received
a whopping state salary
base of $15,000.
Another issue of
concern to students
was absences allowed
per semester. In the
past. AISD students
were allowed fifteen
absences per
semester. Statewide
regulations changed
this to a combination
of ten excused and
unexcused absences
per semester.
Although these are
the most talked about
changes, they are not
the only ones.
Graduation
requirements were
raised to 22 credits
and students were
allowed to choose one
of three graduation
plans to pursue. As a
result, electives began
to suffer a lack of
enrollment of college
bound students.
Discipline policies
were altered to
comply with new state
regulations. IBS
became the Special
Assignments Class -
SAC. and students
received 100% credit

Education Reforms 31Courses Created To Fulfill HB2 46 Requirements
Students scheduling
their classes for the
1985-86 school year
found a number of
new courses had been
added to the
curriculum. To meet
the requirements of
House Bill 246. four
new courses were
created: Introduction
to Biology.
Introduction to
Computer
Programming, World
Geography, and
Business Data
Processing.
According to North
House Counselor Molly
Brown. “Introduction
to Biology is a lab
oriented course
teaching the basics of
biology.”
If a student opts to
take World Geography,
he will study different
cultures in all the
major cultures of the
world as well as
examine the role
physical environments
play in the interaction
of people.
The demand for new
computer courses and
the growing use of
computers in society
prompted legislators
to require school
districts to offer more
computer oriented
courses. Elsik already
offers a computer
math class through
the Math Department.
However, only those
students with a math
background higher
than Algebra I are
eligible to take it.
“The new computer
courses differ from
the present computer
math class in that the
math levels are
different. Students
would want to take
Introduction to
Computer
Programming and
Business Data
Processing to gain a
more general
knowledge of
computers.” explained
Mrs. Brown, head
counselor. ”1 would
say that all the new
courses available to
students, especially
the computer courses,
will help students
because they will
appeal to those who
aren't math oriented.”
Counselors were

freshmen. Since all

a student's schedule
for the next four years
of school.
“We've been
working closely with
the freshmen, showing
them they have to
plan earlier and be
more selective in the
classes they take.”
said Mrs. Brown.
The class of '88 will
be able to choose
among three
graduation plans: the
Regular Program,
Advanced Program,
and Advanced with
Honors Program.
Freshman Chris Fox
said. "I chose the
Advanced Program
because I think it will
give me a better
chance of getting into
college.” Mrs. Brown
stressed that even
though a student may
choose to follow a
Regular Graduation
plan, it would still be a
college preparatory
plan. “All three can be
college preparatory,”
she stated.
Some students had
already taken the time
at home to work out
their four year plan.
Freshman Due Tran
said. "I've already
planned out everything
I will need to take to
graduate with the
Advanced Plan. To me
passing a course has
always been
secondary to making
an ‘A’ in it.” said Due.
Some students,
unlike Due, are not
college bound and
instead may choose to
take Vocational
Education to help
them gain work
experience. At first
there was some
question as to how the
new graduation
requirements would
affect the vocational
programs. Vocational
Counselor John Hall
cleared up the
confusion. “It is still
possible to take
vocational classes anc
graduate with an
Advanced Plan." said
Mr. Hall.
"Since it now takes
22 credits to graduate
there won’t be much
room for failing.”

suicides. On April 23
and 24, meetings on
this much publicized
topic were held in the

Though both Drs.
Karen Helffenstein and

Dr. Helffenstein was
unable to speak due to

Dr. Katz, also a

Spring Branch ISD,
and several Catholic

presented an
interesting and
earnest discussion on
the factors that lead
to suicide and coping
with suicide. Several
members of the
audience contributed
to the discussion with
personal situations
and questions.
The recent airings of
movies such as
Surviving (ABC.
February) provoked
controversey. Though
Dr. Katz was unable to
view Surviving, he had
comments on such
programs. "If these
programs glamourize
or popularize suicide,
then they are
detrimental. Suicide is
a problem. What
should be the focus of
these shows are
coping skills.” One
positive aspect of
these shows is "that

Additional Wings, New ISC
To Improve Facilities
Construction for the
new wings on Elsik's
north and west sides
is tentatively planned
to begin in January,
1986, and end in the
fall of 1987, according
to Director of Planning
and Construction
Phillip Cappola.
Elsik's corridors and
classrooms
accommodate 2950
students. By 1987 the
district expects an
additional enrollment
of 1250, making the
total number of
students 4200.
Cavitt McKnight
Weymouth Inc., who
originally designed
Elsik. is the
architectural firm
contracted to design
the new wings. "Along
with the addition of
new classrooms, new
teachers will have to
be hired," said
Cappola.
In addition to the
new wings, a corridor
on the second floor,
extending from the
North House English
to the South House
English has been put
into consideration to
help reduce student
walking distance.
The new ISC building
will put Alief in the
spotlight of alternative
education reforms.
Now that construction
is underway, their
program can perfect
its methods in the
area of alternative
education.
"House Bill 72

it, he or she will have
the same choices of
activities to choose
from,” said Cappola.

"A school is judged

ts students are active
articipants.
accomplishing honors,
and its staff is
competent and
dedicated. "Mrs.
O'Donnell explained.
She has recognized
and appreciated the
individual worth of
every person with
whom she has worked
whether it be staff or
student. She helped
nuture what was best
for Elsik. Mrs.
O'Donnell stated that
without a feeling of
pride and self esteem,
true teaching and
learning can not take
place. Her mind and
heart has always been
open to anyone's
problems, no matter
how great or small,
and in those times of
trouble and self doubt,
she was there to offer
guidance, sympathy,
and support.
"Mrs. O'Donnell is
supportive to
administrators,
teachers, and
students, as well as
being thorough in
work, thoughtful.
knowledgeable and
having a high energy
level.” said Sylvia
Kelly. Senior High
Program Director.
Mrs. O'Donnell was
with Elsik until 1981
when she was offered
the position of
Assistant
Superintendent for
High Schools. Since
then she has moved
up to Deputy
Superintendent of
Instruction where she
sees that the teaching
and learning process
for all students and
programs are
accomplished
throughout the
district. She is the first
woman to hold this
position. Although she
seems to think nothing
of it. her former staff
members are very
pleased with the
accomplishments she
has reached.
She began as a
math teacher and
became a department
chairman. She was
also an assistant
principal for Hastings
for 2 1 2 years. She
thought her greatest
accomplisment was
the opening of Elsik as
well as being a female
in a male dominated
world. In order to be a
good administrator
one must let people
know you care enough
to come and see what
they are doing. Mrs.
O'Donnell does this.
She does not see
herself in the role of
superintendent but
friends and past staff
members do. Sylvia
Kelly added. "Mrs.
O'Donnell has the
capacity to
accomplish anything
she undertakes. She is
truly amazing in her
abilities. A real super
woman!"
Elsik grew from a
staff of 25 to one of
over a 100. During the
first year, thoughts of
disbanding the school
were discussed. That
is until a group of
students decided to
attend a school board
meeting and fight for
their school. They
believed that their
school could make it.
"Elsik’s first students
developed a pride in
school and respect for
school and education.
I think that this pride
has passed from class
to class.” she said.
Although she was
missed, she left a part
of her with Elsik that
touched many. She
went on to accept new
challenges and grow
so she could offer
even more to the
education of young
people.
"During the ten
years of Elsik’s
existance, it has
always been supported
by its’ students, staff
and parents. Even the
years that Elsik’s wins
were few. the stands
were full. That says a
lot about the school.”
replied Mrs. O'Donnell.

“I was really excited
before prom. It felt
neat to be all dressed
up and drive up in a
fine car,” said Senior
Ricky Kopps.
Pre-prom activities
included parties such
as the ones hosted by
Seniors Don Ballard
and Tracie Rutherford
and going out to
dinner at fine
restaurants such as
Vargo's. The Great
Caruso and The
Rainbow Lodge. The
students who did not
eat dinner out chose
to save money and eat
from the buffet at the
Hyatt.
“This prom sure did
out-do last year's. A
better place and
better food added to a
better night,” said
Senior Ray Schmidt.
"I had a lot of fun. I
was so excited about
prom and dancing,
that I didn't eat. I'm
sorry that I missed the
food because it all
looked so good!” said
Senior Chappell Wells.
After prom, many
people attended
parties or breakfasts,
then a large number
of people headed
toward the beach,
where many beach
houses had been
rented.
"The best part of
prom was spending
the night at the
beach.” said Senior
Brett Rogers.
The rest of the
weekend was then
spent in the sun. The
weather could not
have been better.
The seniors who
were granted a skip
day the Monday after
prom, made the most
of it. but this was the
last year for Seniors
skip days.
"I was really
nervous before prom,

everyone was at the

Seniors Experience Government
Four seniors, Lisa
Baroski, Julie Clasen,
Jonathan May, and
Wendi Pena, along
with sponsor Linda
Graessle. and
Superintendent of
High Schools, Bob
Schumacher had the
chance to learn about
government in a more
exciting way than in
the classroom. They
went to Washington
D.C. as a part of the
Close-Up program
from January 27 to
February 2. The
students stayed with
students from Atlanta,
Ga. and Kansas. The
trip cost $875. This
included everything
except souvenirs. They
attended seminars and
workships, and visited
points of interest such
as the Capitol building
and the Jefferson and
Lincoln Memorials.
"It is so worthwhile.
I can’t say enough
about it! You learn so
much, not only about
government, but about
other people too,”
said Wendi.
Other activities
included a luncheon
with Texas
Representative Bill
Archer, a formal
banquet, and a dance
for all the Close-Up
members.
"The trip was very
educational, but we
did have some fun
too. It helps a lot with
Government,” said
Jonathan.
Julie said. "The trip
was awesome and well
worth every penny I
spent. Given the
chance, I would go
again!”
"The best part of
the trip for me was
running around the
Pentagon," said
Wendi.
Some seniors
experienced
government in a
different way. The
1984 presidential
election gave 18-year
old seniors a chance
to vote for the first
time. David Dougherty
said, "I felt kind of
awkward because it
was an experience I
had never had
before.”
"It was a great new
experience. It was
really neat,” said

Money, Fun Motivate Seniors
To ‘Kill’ Friends In TAG Game
The varsity
basketball game had
just finished, and
seniors were
cautiously making
their way out to their
cars. All of a sudden
darts fly and shouts of
“I got you! You're
dead!" were heard.
This was all a part of
TAG. The
Assassination Game, a
game played by a
large group of Seniors.
The idea for the game
came from a movie
called T.A.G. The
Assassination Game
and was started by
Senior David
Dougherty.
David said. "I saw
the movie on cable,
but I was not the first
one to start the game.
It has been played at
other high schools and
even colleges." David
ruled the game. A
total of 35 Seniors
played, and each one
had to pay a $2 entry
fee. The money was
the prize awarded to
the winner.
To play the game,
each player had to
pick three name cards
and shoot those three
people with a play dart
gun. Any person who
was shot was then out
of the game. When all
three were shot and
killed, three more
cards were picked.
The game was
played from lunchtime
until 10:30 pm on
weekdays. 10 am until
10:30 pm on
Saturdays and from
noon until 8 pm on
Sundays. No one was
allowed to shoot a
person inside the walls
of the school.
"It lasted a lot
longer than I thought
it would.” said David.
The first player killed
was Leslie Lawless.
The last three players
were Diane Shrout.
Steve Hoffmann, and
Robby James. On
February 2. after the
game against
Memorial. Steve shot
Diane in the parking
lot and then went to
Robby's house to wait
for him. When Robby
got home, there was a
chase until he and
Steve stopped on
opposite sides of a
parked car. where
Robby shot and killed
Steve.
Robby was declared
the winner of the
game and was
awarded $65. Steve,
who came so close to
winning the money,
jokingly said. “I really
felt like killing Robby!”
"It was a lot of fun. I
like to play games like
this. And. I was
excited about winning
the money!” said
Robby.
Leslie Lawless
commented. "The
game is a lot of fun
and it brings
everybody closer
together. It's fun to
see everybody walking
around with their dart
guns watching out for
anybody and
everybody!” By L.

students and parents
from Elsik and
Hastings milled about
in both cafeterias with
intentions of planning
for the future. Elsik
has sponsored an
annual college night
ever since its first
senior class.
Representatives
from institutions such
as Princeton, Cornell,
and UCLA come every
year to “sell" their
schools by way of
pamphlets, slides, and
lectures.
Though the purpose
of this night was to
review the options for
further education, the
students also
socialized. An obvious
interest in the
University of Texas
was expressed when
both sessions of the
UT lecture in the
North LGI were filled
to capacity. UT’s
popularity was further
expressed by
students' comments.
“I want to go to UT
because of its capacity
for a well-rounded
education as well as
an opportunity to
meet a lot of people
and have a great
time." commented
Junior Michael
Veomett.
“I plan to go to UT
because they are
(among the) top ten in
the nation as far as
education goes." said
Senior Teri Packard.
“I like the Plan II
Liberal Arts Program."
specified Senior John
Christ. “There are
special accelerated
courses not normally
offered."
Other choices for
college varied. Junior
Mary Villareal wants to
attend Oral Roberts
University “because it
is Christian.” Senior
Kelly Fordyce plans to
go to UCLA. “It offers
a wide variety of
programs and is in a
different environment.
Then, of course, she
added, "there's
always the beaches
and the guys!"
Some had more
definite plans. “I know
the whole SMU
campus like the back
of my hand.”
explained Junior
Shannon Wimmer
adding that he used to
live right across the
street from it.
"I'm going to Rice."
said Junior Noel

an American college in
Europe and study
international business.
I want to be a fashion

The discussion began
with McEvoy’s general
definition of
“adolescence." He
then went on to
discuss the early signs
of this stage and ways
to deal with the
constantly changing
behavioral patterns of
a teenager.
McEvoy mentioned
that his 17-year-old
daughter has given
him great insight in
this subject area.
"Through her. I now
know that all the
things that I thought
were wonderful in
college don't work."
He opened the floor

conclusion of the

kept the score tied
until the final quarter.
Just minutes into the
fourth period. Spring
Woods got its three
points on a 34-yard
field goal. The Rams
didn’t capture their
two points until there
were merely seconds
left to play.
For the first time in
Elsik's history. Elsik
beat Stratford. In the
first half, the Spartans
held a lead of 3-0. but
midway through the
third quarter. Junior
Curtis Larry, the
district’s leading
rusher, made a 5-yard
scoring run. Then in
the fourth, Larry
capped the longest
drive of the night with
a one-yard dive over
the center. But
Stratford scored, and
added the extra point
with 1:14 left in the
game. The Rams ran
out the clock and won.
12-10.
“We think you have
a fine ball club and
you proved it by
beating Stratford
rather impressively,"
said Memorial
Mustangs’ Coach
Wayne Hooks about
Elsik's potential. "We
have to stop Curtis
Larry." Larry scored
three touchdowns to
lead the Rams to a
27-7 - a first time
victory over the
Mustangs. Memorial'
only score was on a
9-yard scramble
during the fourth
period.
For Elsik's third wi
of district competitic
Carril Cooks
intercepted a
Northbrook pass anc
returned it 40 yards
for a touchdown witf
1:30 left in the first
half. The Rams held
the Raiders' scoring
one early touchdowr
It came during
Northbrook’s first
possession of the
game. Juniors Curtis
Larry and Daryl Orsc
accounted for the

Varsity Football 57‘We’ve All Got Madison
On Our Minds.’
The Rams edged the
Raiders 14-7 as the
Rams pulled ahead in
a four way tie for the
second place title. As
Elsik tied up two more
victories, one over
Westchester and one
over Spring Branch,
they moved into that
last week of district
competition. “It's a lot
better feeling when
you go into the last
game of the season
looking for your first
district championship
than yourfirst
touchdown as in
1979.” stated Coach
Sciba.
Spring Woods and
Elsik were tied for the
district championship
with 5-1-0 records.
The night before the
Bear game, the
Spartans faced off
with the Tigers and
held them to a 5-2-0
record.
That meant that an
Elsik tie or victory
over Hastings would
make us 1. but no
matter how the game
ended, the Rams were
still in the Dome.
Senior Rusty Skinner
announced. “We've all
got Madison on our
minds. We're worried
about beating
Hastings, but we can’t
let it get in the way of
the play-offs."
Elsik scored only
once against Hastings,
in the 2nd quarter on
a 36-yard pass to
Darren Bell from Rusty
Skinner, with a kick by
Al Fuller. Hastings took
the ball and scored to
make it 7-6, Elsik's
favor. But with 4
seconds left until the
half the Bears kicked a
54-yard field goal to
win the game 9-7.
Trainer Scott
Woodle described
Sciba's technique. “He
teaches 'em the plays,
tells ’em how to win.
and lets them make
the choice.” Our guys
chose to win.

Varsity Football 59'Copley Brought The
Team Together By
Instilling Confidence’
"I didn’t expect
them to go nine and
one. but I did expect
them to be winners
and they proved to be
that.” said Coach
Copley. With their
second winning season
in a row. the junior
varsity football team
went six and four, five
and two in district
play.
A 7-6 victory over
Houston Lee,
highlighted by an
80-yard punt return
for a touchdown by
Rob Rathgeber. got
the team off on the
right foot. “Many
things contributed to
the success of our
team, but our defense
had to be the key,
especially our
secondary. Not very
many teams could
pass against us and
that stopped a lot of
drives of opposing
teams wanting to
score.” stated Junior
Rodney Allen.
Another part of the
team’s success was
due in part to the play
of runningback Randy
Rios who picked up
clutch yards when the
team needed it.
’’Coach Copley
brought the team
together by instilling
confidence and moral
support for the players
so that we always had
a positive outlook on
all the games,” said
Junior Rob Atiqi.
“Coach Copley was
great. He really
pushed us so that we
could become the best
players that we could
be. Not only that, he
also stood behind us
100% in whatever we
did. and that really
helped.” added David
Phillips.
Of course, every
year the last game of
the season is against
Hastings. The Bears
came into the game
without a defeat in
district play. Despite a
great defensive effort
by the team, the
Bears were the victors
on a 52-yard field goal
to give them the win.

district competition,

Junior Varsity Football 61H.B. 72 Eligibility
Reduces Opportunities
For Sophomore Wins
It was an extremely
frustrating and unusual
year for the
sophomore football
team and their two
coaches. Both Coach
Fawcett and Coach
Rayome started off
feeling optimistic, but
for the first game. Lee
coaches informed
them that Lee didn't
have a sophomore
team to play due to
H.B. 72 eligibility
requirements. So the
coaches decided to
reschedule the game
against Katy in place
of Lee. Four more
cancellations caused
the team to play only
seven games all year.
Even with these
setbacks, the team

“The boys have shown
a real good effort this
year." stated Coach
Fawcett who was a
great instiller of
confidence. “Coach
Fawcett is very
confident in our ability
to play football and
that helps us players a
lot,” stated Lee
Smitherman. “If we
didn't have all those
cancellations we could
have beaten
Northbrook, but the
boys kept a good
attitude all year.”
added Coach Fawcett.
“The team really

caught the winning
touchdown against
Brazoswood. Another
reason for the wins
was defense. “Coach
Rayome is a great
defensive coach, and
he knows how to
psych up for the
games.” added
Packwood.
“The last game
against Hastings was a
tough loss for us. We
just didn’t have any
defense.” explained
Lee about the loss.
Hastings racked up
twenty-nine points
against the tough
defense.

Success Doesn’t Always
Come From Winning
Senior Sherri
Barrett commented.
“There are always
things you wish you
could change when
you look back. Our
record does not show
it very well, but
actually we had a
successful season. We
had a young team with
only three seniors.”
There were only
four returning
lettermen, and several
players were out of
games due to
ineligibility, but Coach
Brannan felt
optomistic about next
year. “We will be
much stronger next
year. We will have
more returning
starters, and some
strong, aggressive new
players." Junior Cindy
Feakes commented,
“We now know that
our success doesn't
have to show on the
scoreboard, but it
does show through
our friendships and
team unity."
The best game of
the season was
unanimously voted as
the first Hastings
game. Junior Dawn
Lyngaas exclaimed,
"We all played to our
best potential while
the fans went wild and
crazy !" Coach
Brannan explained,
“Both teams played
well; there were many
fans, and regardless of
the outcome, this is
what athletics is all
about." They beat
Hastings with scores
of 15-7, 10-15, and
15-13. To
commemorate this
occasion, the team
received blue and
white balloons with
"BUST THE BEARS"
on them.
Jenny Heisler was
the only freshman to
play on the team. She
started out as a
member of the
freshman team, then
moved up to J.V. She
finally had her chance
to play varsity when a
player became
ineligible.
There were several
key players on the
team. Sherri Barrett
and Dawn Langaas
worked hard as the
setters, and Cindy
Feakes did a good job
at middle blocker and
hitter. Despite these
exceptional players,

‘‘All Right! All Right!

chant was needed to

before a game. The
voice of Junior Belinda

used other good luck
charms like crossing
fingers and saying a

game. At the special

tied beef jerky to the

good luck.

very well, with only
three returning

record of nine wins,
five losses. ‘‘They're
all real coachable.
They have lots of
potential and
experience playing

the determination to
be the best.”
The team had three

Heavy Turnout In
Beginning of Season
Boosts Standings
In the past the boys
cross country team
was one step behind
every other spot in
recruiting runners.
"The team had to
really struggle to get
boys to run for us, but
this year was different,
and it showed in our
standings.” stated
Coach Scarborough.
Highlighted by a
third place finish in
district, this season
turned out to be one
of the most successful
in several years. “At
the beginning of the
year we had a lot of
guys come out so we
knew we had to have
some talent to make
us respectable.”
stated Sophomore
Ben Geller. "We never
really expected
to get third in district.
but we could see for
ourselves that we had
the talent to make us
a good team." stated
Senior Tim Damron.
Of course hard work
paid off also. "Coach
Scarborough was a
great help. He was
always there to
support and help us
when we were down,”
said Tim.
When the team
finished third in
District they finished
only eight points
behind their arch rival
Hastings. "That was
one of the best efforts
we put out all year.
We have never come
so close to beating
Hastings ever, and we
should have beat them
then.” said Ben. By B.

year’s performance.
We’ve been working
since August, and the
girls have shown a lot
of dedication to the
cause of winning
district, I’m real proud
of them,” said Coach
Parke.
The team got off to
a strong start in
August and with some
exceptional running by
Wendi Pena and
Donna Thom. They
finished as one of the
top two teams in
every meet. “Nobody
expected us to go as
far as we did, but we
knew we could do
most of the things we
wanted to do.” stated
Sophomore Cinda
Shine. “I think
dedication and team
unity brought the
team together so we
could reach our goals
for the year,” stated
Wendi Pena.
One of the big
reasons that the team
went so far is Coach
Parke according to the
runners. "Coach
Parke is great at
getting us prepared
for meets. Not only
does she get us
prepared physically,
but mentally as well,
and that is real
important for a sport

their team to a ninth

“This is the chance we’ve been waiting for.”
In a fight for the
istrict title, the Rams
ad to beat Hastings,
id Memorial needed
ne more loss. So on
ebruary 15th, the
jams met, played and
ie Bears were
efeated. But the
lustangs beat the
ams by two points
nd were declared the
hamps.
The Hastings game
as like fighting an
Dhill battle and
inning. Like Senior
athy Humpherys. the
ins were ‘‘all riled
p” and “so excited",
'hen Hastings made
le first score, it was
ot expected that
ley would never take
the lead again.
At the end of the
first quarter, Hastings'
Senior Danny Bagget
made a shot that tied
the game 14-14. The
Bears fouled with 8
seconds to play in the
half; Jeff Glasgow,
with 2 extra points,
made the score -
Rams 35, Bears 30.
"Jump high Jeff, get
up off your feet," was
the chant that opened
the second half.
Though the third
quarter had a slow
start, the Rams pulled
it together to enter
the fourth with a
47-45 Ram lead. With
5:30 left the score
was once again tied
and the audience,
tense. Senior Jeff
Glasgow broke the tie
and the fans went
wild.
With 1:30 left on the
board. Hastings got
the ball and tried
desperately to hold it
and tie the game as
the clock ran out. But
Senior Tom Luce stole
the ball, dribbled down
the court, scored, and
Elsik was up by four
points.
After a score by
Senior Wade Watson,
59-57, the Bears, with
3 seconds left to play,
ran down court, shot
the ball, missed the
point, and the Rams
won it! The fans were
crazed as they pushed
their way to the end
of the court to huddle
around the team:
“Number one!
Number one!”
As the second place
district team, the
Rams played Madison,
the 16-5A champs.
Coach Hartfiel said,
“Even if we lose
to Madison, we won't
lose any pride.”
Though Madison
defeated Elsik at
Hoffeinz Pavilion, 42
to 84, players like
Senior Tom Luce had
positive attitudes.
“They're big and
they're mean, but
we're meaner."
Playing the Madison
Marlins gave the guys
more to think about
than just winning.
“This is the chance
we've been waiting for
- to play a nationally
ranked team.”
explained Tom Luce.
The experience built
by a team of mostly
varsity lettermen
remained clear
throughout the
season. And even
though Elsik is losing
experience. Coach
Hartfiel knew, “We'll
build another winning
team.” By Lisa

Boys Varsity Basketball 774 Year Coach Leads
1st Ranked Team
He’s a calm, serene
man that always
flashes a quick smile
and hello to all who
pass him in the hall-
ways. Who could this
be? None other than
Davis Scarborough,
the coach of the boys
J.V. basketball and
cross country teams.
Born in Houston and
raised in Richmond.
Scarborough is a
native Texan. In 1963
he began his freshman
year at Lamar
Consolidated. He was
involved in basketball
and golf, and lettered
in each; three year
letterman for basket-
ball, four for golf. His
excellent skills in
basketball earned him
the All-District title for
three consecutive
years.
In 1966 he attended
Stephen F. Austin
State University and
belonged to a
fraternity. Pi Kappa
Alpha. Although he
excelled in basketball
throughout high
school, he was unable
to play during college
because of the stiff
competition for height.
Unfortunately his six
foot two frame wasn't
considered “height".
However, he played
with his fraternity in
intramural fraternity
ball. As for golf, he
replied, “Golf is a
tough sport and I was
good in high school,
but college golf is a
whole other ball
game."
He has been
coaching the J.V.
team for four years
and the team ranked
1st in district this
season. “Basketball
was my main interest
in high school and
college and I always
wanted to coach." By

Ranked First-Off to Varsity
A victorious season
brought the junior
varsity team a rank of
first in district with a
13-1 record. Another
achievement was the
fact that they won 16
consecutive games.
Sophomore Tim
Schumacher said. “We
are playing together
as a team very well - I
would say that we are
much better this
season than last
season.”
Coach Scarborough
stated. “We had two
equally valuable
players - Brock Wilson
and Tim
Schumacher.”
Scarborough
supported his decision
with a list of qualities.
Wilson led the team in
scoring and
rebounding and his
experience has held
the team together in
many tight ball games.
However, the
playmaker and ball
handler of the team all
season was Tim
Schumacher.
Wilson started his
basketball playing in
the seventh grade and
played for the Holub
Hawks in the eighth
grade. He was
influenced by his older
brother who got him
interested in
basketball.
As for the future, he
said, "I would like to
play in college if a
school offers me a
scholarship.”
Schumacher also
played for the Holub
Hawks, but his
basketball playing
began in the fifth
grade when he played
for the YBA. He does
hope to continue
playing on in college.
Coach Scarborough
added, "All of my
players will be playing
varsity next season.”
The team is
experienced and ready
to progress. By N.

Lead To 2nd In
District
As usual another
one of the basketball
teams came into the
season with
reservations about
their success. “In
most of the
tournaments we
entered we beat
teams that we weren’t
supposed to beat
teams like Terry and
Dulles,” commented
Coach Parker.
In the Willowridge
tournament, the team
beat Willowridge,
Terry, and Dulles. In
the Terry game, the
team really poured on
the aggressiveness to
dwindle a ten point
lead. With two
seconds left, Brian
Witmer drove the lane
to give the team the
upset 55-54.

plus the fact that
Coach Parker really
pulls for us and
inspires us was a big
help also.” stated
Sophomore Phillip

"I don’t think that
one player can be

fine season that we’ve
had, but players like

Freshman B Team Achieves
District Champ; A Takes Fourth
It was almost a
Cinderella story. The
Freshman A basketball
team started out at
the bottom in almost
last place in district
play; they lost five of
their first six district
games. Working
together was a key
factor of their
improvement from a
record of 1-5 to a final
one of 6-8 and fourth
place standing.
"Teamwork turned it
around,” commented
Coach Rayome.
Some of the
outstanding players on
the A-team were Clay
Middleton, Rolin
Visser, and Dave Atiqi.
Atiqi was the leading
scorer. The game
against Spring Woods
was one of the most
memorable because.
"They had beaten us
by twelve points
before, then we came
back and beat them
by one,” said Clay
Middleton.
The B-team similarly
had an outstanding
season. They lost their
first district game to
Hastings then
returned to the courts
with a vengeance to
win the next six
games. They ended up
with an impressive
12-2 district record
and a first place
co-championship with
Hastings. Again
teamwork was the
decisive factor. "We
always tried to pull
together,” stated Luke
Prentiss.
Luke Prentiss and
Randy Brown were the
outstanding players.
Prentiss was the
leading scorer. The
most remarkable
game was the last one
against Hastings; the
team won by ten
points.
Both the players
and Coach Rayome
had an enjoyable
season. Although this
was his tenth year
coaching, he felt that
his first year at Elsik
was exciting because
of "what can be done
when young people
work hard.” By E.

Lead to District Title
Defense, desire and
dedication. These
three words are the
key to the season that
the varsity enjoyed.
“You really need all
three to have a
successful team and
year," said Coach
Brown. After last year's
31-5 season, the girls
were not expected to
go as far. "We really
had to work hard to
get where we are.”
commented Senior
Saardia Johnson.
Though the team
started off on the
wrong foot, 7-8. they
finally turned it around
in district. “I think the
key to our turn-around
was the return of Kelly
and Saardia to the
lineup after they had
been injured." pointed
out Coach Brown.
Even with the slow
start there were some
high points in the
slump. "One of the big
thrills of the season
was beating Dulles
which is one of the
top teams in our
area.” stated Senior
Kelly Armbruster.
After four years of
being the head coach
for the team. Coach
Brown has led the
team to three play-off
appearances in four
years. "The thing that
makes Coach Brown
so good is that he
keeps us in shape and
makes sure we're in
shape for every game.
He tells us what we're
doing right and praises
us for it. which really
helps us a lot.” said
Kelly.
After beginning
district competition,
the girls went on a 14
game tear. "We really
blew them away.
Beating Hastings had
to be our highpoint of
the season to that
point. Nobody
expected us to beat
them because they
were so tall but. we
blew them out in both
games which was
great.” said Kelly.
For the second
season in a row the
team went to the
play-offs to meet
Houston Worthing.
The game pitted
Worthing's speed and
quickness against their
rebounding and
shooting. The speed
and quickness won
even though the team
had a 23-21 lead at
half-time. Worthing
went into the fourth
quarter with a 14
point lead and the girls
just couldn’t come
back from that far
back.
"We could have
beat them, but we just
got too far behind too
fast and before we
knew it we were down
by fourteen and they
were too good to
catch up to.” said
Saardia. By B. Payne.

prayer is said to ease
the players and hope
for a safe game to all.
Coach Schroeder
decided that Bizzy
Deckard earned the
honor of being chosen
MVP of the season
because she had
leadership, good
ball-handling skills and
outside shooting.
Deckard's skills had
her playing on the
varsity team at times.
This was one of her

season because she
didn't like being

Twins Confuse Opponents
‘We Won The Games
With Hard Work!’
The freshman girls
basketball team
maintained a winning
tradition clenching a
second place district
standing. “Teamwork
was an asset,” said
Michelle Heiskell.
Coach Bodine agreed
and felt that teamwork
really helped to
maintain a good
playing level.
The team’s attitude
was neither all work
nor all play, but a
balance of the two.
The practices were “a
little serious and a
little bit fun,"
commented Coach
Bodine. “The
practices involved
drills and warm-ups,”
stated Carrie Scott.
Julie Heisler was the
leading scorer for the
team. Twin sisters
Jenny and Shelley
Misiak were also
outstanding players.
The game against
Hastings was, by
general assent, the
most exciting game.
The team played a
consistent, well fought
game in order to
defeat the rival Bears.
"We won by a lot of
hard work,” explained
Carrie Scott.
“Because Hastings
got a better draw, the
other schools didn't
think we could do as
well.” explained Jenny
Heisler.
Having identical
twins on the team
sometimes created
confusion with
opponents.
“Sometimes they
would get real
confused as to who
would cover which one
of us,” commented
Shelly Misiak. The
opponents did
however, have ways to
tell them apart. “They
looked at our
kneepads to
remember who we
were.” remarked
Jenny Misiak.

Fuller Named MVP
Injuries Affect Standings
There was no
stopping the varsity
soccer team in
district. After several
injuries to top players,
the team’s first place
rank in district
dropped to third.
Leading scorer Chris
Adkins was injured
before district playoffs
and it was a big
disadvantage. Right
Half Doug Wilson said.
“He was our main
scorer as well as our
inspiration. His
absence definitely
showed up in the final
game scores." Other
injuries included
Seniors Gregg Martin
and Rajesh Rao; both
sprained their ankles.
Despite the injuries,
most valuable player
A.J. Fuller pulled the
team through. He
stated. "I am happy
with my performance
on the team. I scored
more goals this season
than last."
Fuller has been
playing soccer for
eight years and is
going to continue on
at North Texas State
University. Another
skilled player, Doug
Wilson, has played
soccer for a total of
12 years. He replied,
“My mother is of
Spanish heritage so all
of my relatives on her
side got me to play.”
The team's victories
were numerous.
During the Clear Creek
tournament, the Rams
defeated Clements
(4-1), Fort Worth
Southwest (3-1), and
Katy Taylor (5-2) and
finished 2nd in the 16
team statewide
tournament. A tough,
but well deserved
victory was the Spring
Woods game. After the
first half, the Rams
were losing 3-1. and a
player had been
kicked out of the
game. Martin stated,
“It looked pretty bad
but the team united
together and came
back to win the
game.” They won
scoring two goals in
the last 10 seconds of
the game.
Most of the players
look up to Coach
O'Keefe as their
reason for excelling.
Martin commented.
“He is very effective in
coaching. He
concentrates on
passing and shooting
the ball, but his main
goal is teamwork on
the field." Wilson
added. "He's a great
coach and I loved
playing for him.”
“It was better than
last year's because we
scored more goals
than any other team
in the district,” stated
Rajesh Rao. He also
felt the team has
greatly improved
mentally, physically,
and strategically. By

Inexperience, Coach Maternity
Characterizes Trying Season
The world’s most
popular sport wasn't
that popular, at least
not the female version
of it. The girls soccer
team not only lagged
in its record but also
in fan attendance for
the season.
“Some people don't
even know that
there’s a girls soccer
team.” stated
Sophomore Lisa
Beachler. "I don’t
think that the public is
educated enough on
soccer to really
understand it. If they
were, more people
would come support
us,” said Junior Karen
Meder.
The team
experienced a tough
season winning only
two games all year.
“Lack of experience
was probably our
biggest problem. For a
lot of the girls it was
their first year on the
team, and for some it
was their first year
playing soccer at all,"
commented Senior
Shelly Hopkins. Even
with these problems
they did defeat their
rival Hastings.
One thing that
affected team
performance was the
absence of Coach Le
Reibus due to
maternity leave.
"When Coach Le
Reibus went to the
hospital we were really
left in the dark. There
were three games that
we would’ve probably
won if she was there.
It was really mass
confusion," said
Shelly.

The girls went on to
State, but with the
injury of Chad Pollock,
last year's state
champion backstroker,
the boys team fell into
a dismal season. Also,
fan participation was
down. Coach Eugene
Watson explained. "We

of Texas, but we are
lacking the students
and faculty members
to watch our meets.

"All the golfers felt
the pressure of living

beginning, but we
finally relaxed and
came through in the
end.” commented
David Smitherman.
The point of
relaxation came at just
the right time. The
team shot an excellent

tournament came just
in time for us to

Depth, Hogue Key To Success
When the season
started in September
for the varsity girls
team. Coach Gwynn
was still looking for
that one player who
could make the team
a winner. ‘‘I've had
more depth on the
team this year and
that's one of the
reasons that we've
been so successful.”
stated Coach Gwynn.
“Some of the
younger players have
really come along
great. With Coach
Gwynn's help, they’ve
become respectable
tennis players.”
remarked Michelle
South.
“The addition of
Stephanie Hogue is
one of the big reasons
for our success,”
explained Coach
Gwynn about her
newest player.
Stephanie has been
the most successful
female player in the
team's history,
winning district and
placing third in the
regional meet.
Stephanie has many
great skills that led
her to regionals, but
according to her. one
stands out above the
rest. “The most
important part of the
game at my level now
is the concentration.
Most of the girls I
compete against in the
state are equally as
good as each other
but the ones with the
best concentration
win," said Stephanie.
The team finished
fourth in district, the
best finish ever for a
varsity girls tennis
team. “This is the best
girls team I’ve ever
had. The girls are all
easy to get along with
and that makes it fun
to coach,”
commented Coach
Gwynn. By B. Payne,

Education comes First for Glasgow
Who Looks Forward to Engineering at UT
Known as the Lerch.
Jeff Glasgow was a
great asset to the
varsity basketball
team. He was born in
Houston and grew up
in Alief. Glasgow began
basketball his
freshman year. He
lettered his junior year
and was named
All-District Honorable
Mention for two
consecutive years.
Glasgow will attend
U.T. to major in
engineering. His
hobbies include golf
and computers. Is
basketball going to fit
in his college life? Jeff
replied boldly. "No !”
He believes education
is an important factor
in succeeding and it
comes first.
"Future basketball
players should
concentrate an
academics. Basketball
is only an
extracurricular
activity." he said.
Many of the games
have been personal
victories like the
second Hastings
game. "The final score
was 59-57 and all the
players had given the
best they had." said
Glasgow.
As for winning and
losing, Glasgow is
really affected by
both. When the team
Kelly Armbrustor played bas-
ketball for five years. When
sho started in the eighth
grade, she actually rode the
bench the entire season.
Since that not so memorable
season, she has gone on to
score 600 points and take
down 410 rebounds her
senior season. Photo by L.
Cates
wins, Glasgow is
ecstatic. He stated. "I
have a great high for
about fifteen minutes
and then I'm happy
for a long time.
However when we
lose, I’m down, but I
can bring myself up
most of the time," he
replied.
Coach Hartfiel gets
just as excited as the
players do when they
win.
Glasgow said. "He’s
great! He works his
players hard and
doesn’t put up with
bad attitudes and
childish behavior."

hard and carry on the

Kelly got started on

Elsik.
She made the

injury, her comeback
in 85 was a success,
averaging 25 points
and 14 rebounds a

"She’s the best all
around basketball
player to come out of
Elsik, and is a true
example of what
dedication and desire
can bring if you stick
with it,” said Coach
Brown about his star
player.
For her hard work
and dedication Kelly

It was like a

Swenson's Deluxe
Sundae Delight, with a
cherry on top: Head
Coach Mike Sciba.
The varsity football
team had a string of
bonuses: 13
holdovers, a 9-1 JV
team, and a new head
coach. One big change
that Coach Mike Sciba
initiated was the
change in the school’s
athletic philosophy. He
intended to “unite
Elsik by stopping
class-yells at pep
assemblies: instead,
we'll have team-yells.”
Coach Sciba has
been involved with the
UIL for 23 years.
“These days kids are
too worried about
getting a job and a
car. When I was in
school, UIL was very
important because we
concentrated on
athletics. So. we had
time for school,
sports, and even
dates."
“I don’t think this
legislation could have
come about when I
was in school. It'll take
a few years for them
to straighten it out. I
think they went too
far but can't just
admit it. They'll
eventually make the
new legislation less
strict,” said Sciba.
His participation in
UIL has included four
years at Jones High
School in Corpus
Christi, one year at
Wharton Jr. College,
one half year at the U.
of H.. one year playing
and one year coaching
at Texas A l. one year
of coaching in Corpus,
and 10 years at Elsik,
where he is one of
only four original staff
members remaining.
Since he became
the athletic director,
Sciba has made many
changes. One of his
MVP's, Senior Rusty
Skinner, noticed.
"There is more
experience in the

The 160 member
band had its ups and
downs with House Bill
72 introduced at the
beginning of the
second semester. This
bill affected the band
because many
students who received
failing grades were not
allowed to participate
in after school
activities and could
not go on the out of
town trip to Dallas for
the Six Flags band
contest on April 26.
These students were
obviously
disappointed, but not
for long. The morning

Dallas and had to call
home to get clothes
and money and had to
find time to make up
practice time they
missed due to House
Bill 72.
"I was really
surprised with the
court decision
because I could finally
go to Dallas.” said
flutist Freshman Paula
Temple. “It was a big
happy confusion since
I had to call home to
get clothes packed."
she said.
Apart from the
Dallas trip, the band
participated in the UIL
Solo and Ensemble
contest in which they
won 54 medals. Junior
Chris Young won the
outstanding soloists
award at that contest.
He also entered the
Sam Houston Jazz
Festival. At the Foley's
Thanksgiving Day
Parade, the band was
announced as the
"Honor Band”, they
participated in the
Blinn College Marching
Festival, the Alief
Autumn Festival
Parade, and
performed at all the
football games. "One
good thing about the
band is that it kept us
really active in sports
and school activities,"
said clarinet player.
Senior Rachel

The band members
were very enthusiastic
about the band and
they tried to attend all
the performances and
competitions. "I have

In All San Antonio Events
“We have had an
excellent year. That's
why we won in the
San Antonio
competition - we came
together and worked
hard!" said Revellier
Sponsor Mrs. Martin.
The Revelliers
placed first in all
events at the San
Antonio competition
May 9-10 including
team, officers, and line
events, which were of
the highest prestige.
They also won the
sweepstakes and
super-sweepstakes
awards. Entries
included three dances
by the lines, three
dances by the officers,
and 200 other
routines that won the
best choreography in
the entire contest.
"I think that in San
Antonio we proved a
lot to the people here,
and there, that we are
awesome and that
Hastings doesn’t hold
a candle to us!”
exclaimed Junior
Tracy Kizziar.
The Revelliers were
not greatly affected by
the House Bill 72. but
Mrs. Martin said she
“sees it causing future
problems.” She
stated. “Most of the
girls can do well in all
their classes except
one. so that causes
them to be ineligible.”
”1 joined the Revies
to show spirit for the
school and to show
my talent for
something I like to
do.” stated Junior
Wendy Arnold. The
Revies practiced until
4:30 every weekday
because they always
had some event to
practice for. Their
involvement spanned
from parts in Our
Town, officer tryouts,
the Autumn Festival
Parade, talent shows,
middle school
performances, every
football and basketball
game, every available
pep rally, to the six
hour dance-a-thon for
the American Heart
Association. They also
attended workshops at
various high schools in
Spring Branch. Alief.
and Houston school
districts. “I think that
practice is the key to
success and you have
to put in as much as
you want to get out of
it. That’s what Revies
is all about!” said
Sophomore Monica
Covington. Mrs. Martin
became the Revelier
sponsor because she
was a dance major in
college. She loved
dancing and
movement and the
Revies were the
closest thing to
dancing in high school.
Before she moved to
Texas, she coached a
drill team in Salt Lake
City. Utah which
placed first in
Nationals. Ever since
then she has become
very involved in

"She is spirited,

Senior Tru Luu about
the High Point
Revellier.
The girl Tru was
talking about is Senior
Terri Bullington. Terri
was a very active
person who attended
most of the basketball
and baseball games
besides every football
game. She was a
Revellier for two
years.
"The Revies have
really helped me to
know who I am and
what I can really do
that I enjoy." said
Terri.
Even though she
had a busy schedule,
Terri worked at
Pelican Cleaners.
Among Terri’s
awards were Girl of
the Day at summer
camp and The Football
Girl of the Week
Award. She planned to
attend Stephen F.
Austin University in
the fall of 1986. "Terri
is an all around good
Revellier who is a

Senior Linda
Pavlicek was a
Revellier for three
years and also one of

topped it off," said
Linda. Along with the
award came a $500

point of 3.9 and class
rank of 25. She
graduated Magna Cum

she said. "I just keep
in mind that things are
going to get better."
She plans to study at

The two words that
best describe the
cheerleaders are "new
and first.” Unabated
amidst administrative
and internal changes,
the cheerleaders set
Elsik records.
On August 6 with six
new members and a
new sponsor, the
squad traveled to Sam
Houston State
University. It was here
that Julie Johnson was
chosen to compete
with ten other girls to
go on to the
All-American
Cheerleading
competition. Overall,
the squad came within
one point of being
named the best there.
In October, the
group qualified at
regional competition
to go to the National
Cheerleading
Competition in Dallas

did not place among
the top ten, but were

commented. "We
didn't go expecting to
win, but why not go if
you're invited? There
were some squads
there that were just
out of this world."
One of the biggest
changes the girls
experienced was a
new sponsor. Mrs.
Eggers. The first-time
cheerleader sponsor
revealed that
sponsoring is "a lot
more work than I
thought, but it has its
advantages: it can be
fun at times." Junior
Lisa Schultz explained
the transition. "It was
hard at first because
she was new, but as
the year went on, we
all adjusted, and now
she had become a
part of us.”
Besides a new
sponsor, the squad
also got new uniforms.
They decided on a
navy uniform
somewhat like a sailor
suit. Yet another
change took place
when pep-rally themes
were to be
discontinued. For luck,
they taped a penny to
their tennis shoes . . .

Cheerleaders 125Student Council Faces Change
Student Council
made several revisions
including changing its
name, sponsors, and
membership
requirements.
"The reason we’ve
been Student
Congress is because it
was supposed to be
run like a congress.
We changed the name
to Student Council
because it is easier for
the students to
identify with Student
Council," stated
Senior Pat Regan.
Student Council also
had new sponsors, Mr.
Pfeffer and Mrs.
Stephenson.
"I decided to
sponsor Student
Council because I
wanted to be involved
in a worthwhile
activity which utilized
the talents and ability
of our students in the
school and
community,” said Mr.
Pfeffer.
Twelve members
were elected in each
class, and additional
members earned their
way by getting points
toward membership.
(1 point equals 1
hour).
"It was supposed to
be that way last year,
but no one wanted to
tally the points."
explained Ex-president
Pat Reagan.
Student Council was
not as organized as
last year according to
Junior Murphy Klasing.
president-elect. "We
needed a year to get
re-organized because
of new sponsors. We’ll
come back strong next
year!"
In September
Student Council held
an Open House night
with members guiding
the tours, and in
October they had a
stadium clean-up. In
November, members
participated in the
Alief Parade and had a
canned food drive for
the needy in the
community.
"I felt it was
successful because a
lot of people brought
cans to help." stated
Junior Mi Hwang. In
December, the
organization held a
homeroom decoration
door contest, but it
was not very
successful. "There
wasn’t as much
interest as we hoped,
but it did create
Christmas spirit in
some homerooms."
commented
Sophomore Tracy
Evans.
In February,
members held a
SMILE Week to
campaign against drug
and alcohol abuse. It
was an award for
being the most
outstanding SMILE
Week at the state
convention in Austin in
April. "I felt it went
over real well. We got
more response on it
than any other
project.” stated
Senior Blake Myers.
April also brought a
talent show and a
walk-a-thon. "We did
the walk-a-thon
because it was a
community project,
and we help the
community. I liked
doing it because it was
a good cause and it
was fun,” commented

Dapkus, Roesner, Silva Sing At State
Out of the 24
students that began
choir competition at
the district level, only
three, all
underclassmen,
advanced to the state
auditions. Sophomore
Tony Silva placed
eleventh, Sophomore
Annette Roesner
placed fourteenth, and
Sophomore Danna
Dapkus was chosen
first alternate to the
state choir.
When First Alto
Danna did well at
district, she set her
goal for state. She
said of her success.
“Everything I've gone
for I’ve gotten; but I
don’t see myself as
great. When I see
myself (as great) I do
bad -1 get
discouraged.’’
Although Danna relied
on her singing rather
than superstition, she
prayed before she
sang to thank God for
her talent.
For First Soprano
Annette, success at
state competition was
impeded by a bout
with laryngitis only
three weeks before.
She was somewhat
disappointed about
the timing of her
illness, but she was
glad she got to go.
First Tenor Tony
Silva had a more
relaxed attitude
toward competitions.
Tony, who drank pure
lemon juice before
singing, said at distric
he "felt good." At
region he thought,
"This is cool,” and at
area he was "freaking
out!”

Freshman Judd Davis
and fifth grader

Choir 133Theatre Arts Changes Image, Overcomes H.B. 72
“It's an actor's
problem, deal with it,”
is the answer from
sponsor Mrs. Boone
when the Theatre Arts
Department is faced
with a problem. The
actors sought to
overcome two
obstacles. The first
was creating a new
image. The second
was producing the UIL
one-act play Dark of
the Moon without
letting House Bill 72
ruin the show.
At the first officer’s
meeting it was
decided that Theatre
Arts needed to
become more visible.
To do this, the club
began supporting
other clubs and
athletics. Before
athletic games, band
concerts, speech
tournaments, or after
competition, Theatre
Arts delivered good
luck posters or
“Theatre Arts
Spotlight”
congratulations. Chris
Everett contended.
“We've gone from
being an elitest group
to supporting others,
and that support has
come back.”
“House Bill 72 has
had a tremendous
effect on us. It’s been
frustrating for
students and Mrs.
Boone,” said Chris
Everett. In the middle
of Dark of the Moon
two students had to
drop out. Chris
explained. “You’re so
dependent on the
other people, you
become a family. It
doesn’t run on
individuals.
Despite the
problems, Dark was
chosen to advance
from district to area.
At district. Junior
Chris Lundquist was
chosen Best Actor,
Seniors Shawn Fields
and Tamiko
Washington and
Freshman Steve
McMillan were
awarded All Star Cast.
Senior Mike Mullen
was awarded
Honorable Mention. At
area, Shawn Fields
and Chris Lundquist
were awarded All Star
Cast and Tamiko
Washinton, Steve
McMillan, and Mike
Mullen were awarded
Honorable Mention.
The play, however, did
not advance.
Sophomore Shannon
Collins, commented.
”1 was disappointed. I
felt like we put so
much work into it and
we got really close."
Theatre Arts
produced two other
shows. On October 11
and 13. Our Town
played. Senior Penni
Siemens, historian,
said. “Thursday was a
full house and
Saturday had a crowd
larger than expected
because of the rain.”

among other things.
The banquet was
May 10 at Birra
Poretti’s. The theme,
death, was borrowed
from the image of the
mask the cast and
crew of Dark gave
Mrs. Boone. Mrs.
Boone said Theatre
Arts was appealing
because, “There’s a
feeling of
accomplisment and a
very positive
atmosphere, even in
the worst of times.”

On August 20, a
silent revolution took

time, the National

result, Mrs. DeLecour
appointed a board of
directors. Seniors
Missy Brown and

chosen co-presidents
with Juniors Ginger
Winstead and Scott
McFarlane as council
members.

tournament, Freshman
debators. Tara
McGrath and Duk Tran
underwent initiation.
Scott McFarlane and
Hastings' Serini Medi
convinced them to ask
Hastings' Joel
Schwartzberg why
people call his father
•'Stumpy.” In a fit of
imitated anger Joel
yelled, "I can't believe
you asked me that!
My father is a
paraplegic." Later, the
two were told that
Joel’s father is normal.
The last tournament
was held at Memorial
High. For the first
time, two beginning
debate teams
advanced to quarter-
finals. Senior Lorraine
Noone and Scott
McFarlane went 5-1.
and Missy Brown and
Penni Siemens went
4-2. They placed in
the top eight of 70
teams. Eric. Lorraine,
and Scott went to

Athletes meetings.
Under direction of
Mrs. Leribes, health
teacher and soccer
coach, FCA members
took turns preparing
lessons for meetings
from the Fellowship of
Christian Athletes
study guide. These
lessons were
particularly helpful to
the athletes because
they taught the
importance of keeping
God before success.
According to
Treasurer Public
Relations Head Julie
Johnson fall
membership was low
because, “It's been a
busy season.”
Membership grew
slightly later. Because
membership was small
and the meetings took
place at member’s
homes instead of at
school, members
relaxed and responded
emotionally and often
supported each other
and gave each other
advice.
Mrs. Leribes, who
had sponsored Girl's
FCA for two years,
offered support and
helped with organizing
lessons until late
February, when she
had her baby. Seeing
the need for a new
sponsor. Mrs. Pena,
President Wendi
Pena's mother,
offered to be the new
sponsor.

Tuesday mornings.
Attendance peaked at
over 50 people. The
membership size
surprised many
people.
Senior Hollie Fowler
commented, "Without
SFC I would have
never known how
many Christians I was
surrounded by." Mrs.
Lewis explained that.
"Coming from a year
that’s been
suppressed, students
take charge."
Attendance slumped
from November to
January. Original plans
for picnics, church
tours, and Christmas
carolling were
cancelled. To revive
membership, efforts
were concentrated on
re-organization and
advertising.
Senior Terry
Cummings was
appointed social
chairperson to
publicize upcoming
events and speakers.
Sophomore Lee Koch
was made librarian
and compiled a list of
Christian books and
albums members
agreed to lend out.
Besides Bible study,
the club ordered
sweatshirts, entered a
band in the talent
show and helped
Hastings start a SFC.
Efforts to begin SFC at
Stratford failed due to
a lack of
administration
consent.
Sophomore Wing Ng
was the designer of
the SFC emblem. The
word "Yaweh" on
their shirt means
"God.” The Jewish
faith considers the
word, god. so sacred
that they spell it
"YWH" so it would not
be pronounced. Later
vowels were added.
In February Senior
Jonathan May decided
to organize "The

band, for the talent
show. Members
included: Jonathan

Students For Christ 141Wet Paint
With Silk
The art club, with
their new name. Wet
Paint, had a very
active year, starting
off with silk screening
T-shirts in September.
This was the first time
the club did this and it
was successful. The
club also visited the
Houston Museum of
Fine Arts and then had
a picnic in Hermann
Park in September as
well.
"It was interesting. I
really enjoyed seeing
other people's art
work.” said Senior
Jamie Haines.
In October the club
face-painted, a new
tradition that began
last year. Held on the
31st, club members
painted various
designs on students as
well as teachers.
Explained Senior
Ron Crisostomo. "It
wasn't as much as a
turn out as last year,
but it was fun. We still
raked in the bucks!"
The art club proved
they had school spirit
by making bear-buster
signs in November for
the Elsik-Hastings
game to help students
get more enthused for
the game.
December was
another busy month.
Starts Year
Screening
The club held a cookie
decorating contest
and they made
banners for Christmas
and hung them in the
North and South
cafeterias.
Second semester
members made paper
roses for the elderly at
several nursing
facilities for Valentines
Day. and in April they
made Easter baskets
and coloring books to
give to a children’s
hospital.
" I really like doing
things like that. It's a
neat idea,” said Senior
Cindy Elley. The club
ended the year with a
picnic in May.
"The art club is
definitely just for fun.
We met every other
Wednesday and would
work on projects or
discuss activities,”
explained sponsor
Mrs. Hook. "Members
don't have to be in art
classes to join," she
added. By D. Hung,

Over one-hundred
students participated
in the French Club.
Why did they have so
many more members
than any other foreign
language club? The
answer is simple. The
French Club had some
kind of
French-oriented
activity every month.
Members attended the
French movie Les
Comperes, a picnic
with the other foreign
language clubs, a trip
to the Renaissance
Festival, a Christmas
party at a students’s
home, a trip to Jones
Hall to see The Bejart
Ballet, ice-skating, and
a French banquet at
the Magic Pan in the
Galleria. The club also
made and sold
creampuffs to the
school in March and
crepes in February.
Competition was
strong in French Club.
Not only did they
compete with Latin
Club in a friendly
game of volleyball, but
they also played the
Hastings French Club
at the end of the year.
‘‘The club is open to
anyone interested,
and not just to French
students," said
President Thanh Ho.
"The French Club is
known to have more
students involved in
activities," remarked
Mrs. Hogshead, the
French Club sponsor
for eight years. "We
had over thirty
students from the
French Club alone
attend the
Renaissance Festival.”

"We came, we saw.
we conquered."
This was the theme
of the Latin Club
members on their way
back from the
state-wide Latin Club
Convention. The club
had never before
attended the
convention, which was
a weekend-long series
of tests covering all
different categories of
Latin, along with
physical competition
in their own small
version of the
Olympics.
"The club is usually
pretty competitive
toward other foreign
language clubs.”
explained Ryan
Trainer, treasurer.
"But we also get along
well with them, like at
the Renaissance
Festival. That was a
blast!"
All members looked
forward to their yearly
visit to the festival.
Other activities a little
bit closer to home
consisted of stadium
clean-ups, after school
meetings, picnics, and
softball games with
other clubs. "In the
three years that I’ve
sponsored Latin
Club,” said Mrs.
Harris. "I’ve noticed a
great increase in the
number of members
and the amount of
enthusiasm in the
club's activities. The
students are
interested in the Latin
Club because of their
interest in classics and
the desire to have a
good time.” stated
Mrs. Harris. By D.

Diversity,
Changing
Families
Expand Elsik’s
Dimensions
Elsik has changed drastically in ten years and so have the people. The
student body has become more diversified and the percentage of ethnic
minorities continues to increase. Also, the number of single parent
families increased from 21.7 million in 1970 to 35 million in 1983 in the
U.S. At Elsik. 32% of all students live in a single parent home. Single
parent families included many of Elsik’s students as fifty percent of all
marriages in Harris County ended in divorce. With the economic
“crunch.” many students either felt they needed to or were forced to
seek employment. As a result, many saw their grades drop or were no
longer able to participate in extracurricular activities. As time passes, not
only Elsik. but the Alief community has changed. The influence of
Houston's rapid growth and urbanization in the late 1970’s will be felt
forever.

But. . .
Exemptions
Lost
“It’s unfairlThey
only started senior
exemptions two years
ago, and now we can't
have them,” said
Senior Richard
Rennison. Although
this was not the only
change in education
under House Bill 72, it
was the most
disappointing for
seniors. Senior
exemptions began in
May 1983, and were
used by the classes of
'83 and '84. However,
this was not the only
privilege lost. Seniors
could no longer enjoy
traditional Senior Skip
Days. In the past, the
skip days were the
Friday before and the
Monday after prom. It
was not a total loss,
though, since the
seniors were allowed
to take early exams
and had the last few
days off. Senior Julie
Johnson said, "I think
Seniors should be
allowed certain
privileges, but I realize
the school cannot do
anything about it. I
wish we still had the
privileges, though.”
Seniors still had the
privilege of off-campus
lunch. "It's great that
we can still go out to
lunch, because it's a
relief from the
monotony of school.”
said Senior Mike Trost.
Although most Seniors
were disappointed,
others such as Jeff
Glasgow said. "I don't
really mind.”

Language Is The Hardest Part
Although she looked
like a typical American
student, there was
something unique
about Ana
Escarpenter. She was
an exchange student
from Spain. Although
Ana arrived in the US
without her family and
friends, she did not
find it hard to adjust.
Ana said. "I thought it
would be a great
experience to come to

another country." Her
main reason for
becoming an exchange
student in the US,
though, was to learn
English.
To Ana, life in the
US proved to be very
different from life in
Spain. "The school
system is different in
Spain. The students
stay in the same room
while the teachers
change. They are also
more strict. The
student teacher
relations are more
relaxed here, and the
work is easier,"
commented Ana.
Ana’s favorite subjects
were math and
science. Her plans
after high school
included going to
college. By L. Sturm,

SENIORSKavadi and Christ Chalk Up
Writing Awards and Honors
"Only about 13% of
the students
nominated for English
awards are cited,”
stated the National
Council of Teachers of
English (NOTE).
Seniors Manisha
Kavadi and John
Christ became a part
of this 13% when they
received an
achievement award in
writing from the NCTE.
At the end of their
junior year, Manisha
and John entered a
NCTE contest
submitting a piece of
their writing. They also
had to write, in one
hour, an essay on the
"American Dream."
using two literary
references from their
own knowledge to
support their own
ideas. Over 7000
students were
nominated for this
award. John and
Manisha were among
the 850 who won.
Manisha commented,
"It's neat to win
because I’ve gotten
letters from
congressmen like Ron
Paul. Plus, our names
were in the
Advocate. ”
"I felt as though I
had achieved
something
worthwhile," said
John. Receiving this
award was nothing
new to them. Manisha
placed eighth in region
in the National French
Contest, and received
the rank of Magna
Cum Laude on the
National Latin Exam.
For UIL ready writing,
John placed first at
school and seventh in
district. They also
both received several
achievement awards in
school. Both students
were enrolled in AP
English and were also
members of the
National Honor
Society for two years.
College was in the

students. Manisha
planned on majoring in
Prelaw, while John
planned his major in

Junior Officers
Anticipate A
Terrific Prom
With only a year
away from the Senior
Prom, the four class
officers and two
sponsors met twice a
month to discuss
fund-raising activities.
When meetings were
cut to once a month
due to Junior Class
Sponsor Betsey
Lancaster's
pregnancy. The
officers did their best
to encourage the
juniors to help raise
more money for the
prom. The cookie sale
and sale of Powder
Puff programs helped
raise the total to a
little over $11,000 by
December.
Vice-President Brock
Wilson said. “Because
of the junior’s
participation, we're
going to have a good
prom. There is no limit
to how much money
we can make. It'll go
to a good cause." By

JUNIORSVideos Occupy Bored Juniors
‘‘I want to see the
face of the sound,”
said Junior Jeana
Bauer about Music
Television, better
know as MTV. This
cable channel devoted
24 hours a day to
music videos and
specials.
Since MTV began
three years ago, its
popularity soared. One
reason for this was
that the viewer does
not have to be
stationary while
watching. ”1 just flip
through the channels,
and if I see a video I
like, I’ll watch it.” said
Junior Heather Best.
Junior Ryan Trainer
believed that its
popularity was due to
the “unusual music
that you would not
normally hear on the
radio.” Some
examples were
Siouxsie and the
Banshees, Depeche
Mode. Echo and the
Bunnymen, and
Blancmange.
For a video to catch
Junior Lea Elepano's
eye “it has to be a
good song, with a
good beat.” Some of
her favorite bands to
watch were the
popular pop-dance
bands Culture Club,
Wham!, and Australia’s
Eurogliders.
Weekend
programming on MTV
brought The Saturday
Night Concert and
Sunday Special. The
viewers were led all
over the U.S. and
Europe to preview
upcoming and
established groups.
“Out of all the Sunday
Specials, I enjoy
watching Liner Notes,
London Calling, and
The Cutting Edge,”
commented Junior
Andrea Lewis.
Unlike the radio, this
music medium may be
viewed as an artform.
Students found
watching their favorite
groups more exciting
than just listening to
them. Edie DeBruyn
commented. “When
you hear a song on
the radio, the
accompanying video
changes how you feel
when you see it.”
Rogan Brunet
confessed, “If the

song is good-looking,

regardless.”
Although MTV was
loved by many, it had
its flaws. Anyone who
was exposed to it.
knew that it could be
addicting. Ryan
Trainer confirmed,
“It's non-motivating
and it wastes time.”
But this flaw did not
bother the average
MTV junkie. His
response to the
negative aspects? “I
want my MTV!” By S.

Juniors Turn
For The Future
•‘You are number
58," said many juniors
to their friends upon
having their rings
turned. The rings
ranged in price from
$110 to $200, but
despite the high
prices, sales were up.
After three long
months, the juniors
received their rings on
December 12. "I felt
I was a step closer to
finishing high school,"
said Junior Chris
Theofanidis, after he
received his ring.
Junior Noel Orsak
said. "I thought it was
a waste of money.”
Likewise went for
Junior Lana Brown
who said. "It wasn't
worth it."
In spite of the mixed
reactions, juniors went
through the ritual of
ring turning, and
setting aside the last
turn for that "special
someone."
When asked who
would be the last
person to turn their
rings these juniors
replied; Janet Jessen -
"Mark Streck", Lana
Brown - "George
Baker", Valerie Card -
"Patrick Corcoran”,
Joel Parker - "Kathy
Brown". Tracy Geise -
"John Perez", Murphy
Klasing - "Lisa
Farney", Flo
Linderman - "my
ex-boyfriend Earl
Stokes”, Rogan
Brunet - "Steven
Kniznur", Mark
Henderson - "Patty
Reagan”, and David
Kuehn replied, "Tracy
Suder.”
Although many of
the juniors will
probably toss their
rings in a box after
high school, the
memories of "ring
day" will last forever.

Collins’ Professional Acting
Begins Exciting Career
"When I was very
young, my parents
took me to see
children's productions,
then enrolled me in a
musical theatre school
and it grew from
that."
Shannon Collins has
acted in eighteen
Theatre Under the
Stars plays and
thirty-five
commercials. "I prefer
plays because live
performances are
much more personal.”
"My most
embarrassing moment
was when I was in the
fourth grade playing
Michael, the little boy
with the teddy bear, in
the TUTS production
of Peter Pan, and
while saying a line my
retainer fell out of my
mouth!"
"I would most like
to co-star with Al
Pacino because I think
he is a wonderful
actor, or maybe
Dudley Moore because
I think he is a terrific
dramatic actor besides
being a character
actor and comedian."
Shannon goes to
New York every year
to see the current
shows on and off
Broadway, to visit
friends, two of whom
are currently in
Broadway shows, and
to learn more about
the city because she
plans to attend college
at New York
University.
"The most
important thing in my
life is the love and well
being of my family and
friends.”
"My major career
goal is to graduate
from high school,
move to New York
where I'm hopefully
going to college and
pursue a career in the
theatre.” By R. Harris.

Sophomore James
Culbertson holds first
chair in Orchestra,
and leads the other
cellos. “I started
playing around the age
of nine because my
brother played the
violin, and I didn’t
want to play the same
thing, so I just started
playing the cello.”
Most of James
influence was from his
mother who plays the
piano and clarinet. ”1
was never forced to
keep playing by my
parents, I chose to
continue." His
brother, Tim, plays
violin, piano, and
trombone. His father,
reverend of
Canterbury United
Methodist, and his
whole family, support
his music.
James is also a
member of the
Houston Youth
Symphony, an
organization he tried
out for with a live
audition. He has
traveled to Toronto,
Montreal, and Ottowa
Canada with the youth
symphony. Their
major piece of music
was Firebird Suite by
Stravinsky.
James has always
loved symphonies. His
idol is Pablo Casalas.
His favorite composer
is Bach. His favorite
piece is Jesus Joy of
Mans Desiring.
Whenever possible, he
attends the Houston
Symphony.
With grades of A’s
and B's James is well
on his way to being a
lawyer, but still wants
to play music as a
hobby.
James hasn’t forgot
the person that has
helped him get where
he is now. “I’ve known
Mr. English since I was
in seventh grade and
he has always
influenced my musical
career." By R. Harris.

“Please, Do Not Let Anything Go
Wrong Today!”
I hope my clothes
are still in style. Can I
find my way to all my
classes? Please! Don't
let anything go wrong
today. No. not today.
I hope this bus gets
me to school on time.
I’ve got to find the
theater, then some
other rooms. Wow!
What a trip. The kids
that go to Hastings
ride this bus too. I
wonder what it's like
at that school. Oh
god, if you’ve ever
been with me, please
let it be now! This
school looks so big I
know that I’m going to
get lost.
That sure was a long
ride. Maybe it just
seemed that way. I'll
just follow these two
new-wavers; they
seem to know where
they are going. I don't
think I should ask
anyone - they’ll
probably just laugh. I'll
just play it cool.
Maybe no one will
notice me.
Two cafeterias?! I
can tell right now it's
going to be a long day.
I hope I can meet
some new people
soon. Oh, no! I think
I’ll just die if someone
calls me "fish”. They
should remember that
they were "fish" once,
too!
Maybe one day I'll
understand why the
North House is red
and the South House,
green. Personally, I
like red better, but I'm
going to be stuck with
a green locker. I
wonder if there are a
lot of people with
pictures of bands in
their lockers. I hope
my locker is in a
convenient spot. I can
see running to one of
my classes, and one
time tripping and
falling. Would that be
embarrassing! I
probably wouldn't
come to school the
next day. and find
another way to get to
that class.
I hope that I get
some nice teachers
that let me chew gum.
I don’t believe it.
There are some
people I actually know.
Boy, have they
changed. I don't know
whether I want to
associate with them or
not. Ah. shucks! They
were pretty good
friends last year. They
probably don't even
want to be seen with
me. They've seen me.
Play it cool. . .
Maybe school won't
be so bad after all. By
Felicia Wasylina,

FRESHMENFish CC Runner Earns 6th In State
"She deserves a lot
of credit for the hard
work she puts out and
never seems to
complain about it,”
said classmate Natalie
Kagan about
Freshman Varsity
Cross Country Track
runner Donna Thom.
Donna's running
"career" started in
third grade at
Ridgemont Elementary
in Spring Branch. "I
just started running
and loved it!"
exclaimed Donna. She
only ran one meet a
year until she moved
to Alief.
"Alief didn't offer
relays in elementary
school," remarked
Donna. As a result she
did not continue
running until she
entered Albright
Middle School. While
at Albright Donna ran
16 meets coming in
first in district on the
junior high level.
"She really likes
running. On the
weekends we would go
running whether it was
in season or not,"
explained Freshman
JV Cross Country
runner Renee Williams.
Donna played
basketball in seventh
and eighth grades at
Albright. She also
played on the girl's
Freshman Basketball
team.
She ran 11 meets
including district,
regionals, and state. In
district, Donna placed
second with a time of
11:56 just behind
Senior Wendi Pena. In
state competition.
Donna placed sixth
with a time of 11:54
coming in before
Wendi.
Donna’s favorite
classes included Math
with Mrs. Hatley and
American History with
Mrs. Autry. "I love any
kind of math and will
probably take it
throughout school."
stated Donna.
"I will always
remember when
Wendi Pena and
Sophomore Cinda
Shine threw Renee
and me into the
complex trash can in
front of practicing
football players!" said
Donna. By F. Wasylina,
Freshman Class Editor
"The day before the race
Donna would tell me she!
wasn't going to run as she was
afraid she would come in
last," said Renee Williams.
The back row includes
Freshmen Renee Williams, JV
cross country runner, and
Donna Thom, varsity cross

You Can’t Practice
Being Crazy
"It's just something
you go out and do.
You can’t practice
being crazy."
explained Freshman
Natalie Kagan. In
seventh grade Natalie
was a cheerleader.
This influenced her to
try out for Rockette
Ram.
Rockette Ram gives
her the chance to
enthusiastically
demonstrate her
support for the school.
"The students of this
school have a lot of
spirit unlike some
other schools; and
when I tell some that I
like my school, they
think I'm crazy."
claimed Natalie.
Natalie was the
Freshman Class
president, she
participated on the
freshman volleyball
team. Student Council,
Students For Christ,
and Drill Team
Training. Natalie came
to the U.S. from South
Africa when she was
nine and has traveled
through Europe, to
Israel and Hawaii.
Natalie added, "I
really love high school
but also realize that it
is hard work.” Natalie
also really liked all of
her classes because
they presented a
challenge. Biology was
among her favorite
classes because she
likes to learn about
the way things work.
At the beginning of
the year she wasn’t
sure whether she was
going to like her
teachers because
"they all had different
ways of teaching", but
decided she liked all of
them. She would like
to make straight "A's"
in school because she
wants to study law.

226 FacultyFitzgerald Takes On Student
Problems and Schedules
"After spending
three years as a
principal at a Catholic
school, I decided that
wasn't the position I
wanted. So I thought
about what I liked
about being an
administrator, and
that was talking to the
students and their
parents about their
problems. Eventually, I
decided that I wanted
to be a counselor.”
explained South House
Counselor Charles
Fitzgerald.
At that same
Catholic school he
spent six years
teaching English to
sixth and seventh
graders before
becoming principal. He
also taught English to
sixth graders at Olle
Middle School.
Mr. Fitzgerald was a
counselor at Alief
Middle School for
three years and at Olle
for one year. "I
needed a change. I
had spent 15 out of
my 16 years in the
education field with
junior high aged
students. I have found
that the high school
students are more
sophisticated and can

find the words to
discuss their problem
unlike the junior high
students," revealed
Mr. Fitzgerald.
"The two factors
that influenced me in
becoming a counselor
were reading in
psychology and
human growth and
development; and
secondly, my friends
told me that I was an
intentive listener.”
"From counseling I
have received two
things, longtime
friendships with
students and staff, and
the satisfaction of
playing a role in the
student’s life."
If Mr. Fitzgerald
wasn't a counselor, he
fantasizes himself as a
writer of novels and
plays. "Part of me
never fully developed
the ability to write. My
teachers in high
school and college
told me I had the
talent. I just never
disciplined myself to
do it." Mr. Fitzgerald
still has many outlines
of short stories and
plays he wants to
write.
Mr. Fitzgerald is a
native Houstonian and
attended St. Thomas
High School. He later
attended the
University of St.
Thomas for his
bachelor’s degree in
English; Sam Houston
State for his teaching
credentials; and the
University of Houston
for his masters in
guidance and
counseling.
While in high school
Fitzgerald swam and
participated in speech
and drama. He was
voted best actor
twice, made the Honor
Roll, and when he was
a senior, the faculty
voted him as one of
the best top 10 in high
school.
His hobby was
gardening. He claims
his yard was mostly a
giant flower bed. but
he plants vegetables,
too. He loves to read,
and his favorite book
is Atlas Shrugged by
Ayn Rand, a Russian
immigrant. Fitzgerald
also enjoys traveling.

Faculty 227From Translator to Teacher
Muckleroy Experiences Life To The Fullest
At one time she
wanted to be a
translator for the
government. But Mrs.
Jean Muckleroy. 30
years ago. changed
her mind and became
a business teacher.
"It was more
practical to be a
business teacher
because if I were ever
out of work, I could
probably get an office
job.” explained Mrs.
Muckleroy. She also
wanted to be home
with her children.
Mrs. Muckleroy has
been married for 30
years to Roland
Muckleroy. They have
two sons. Ted. a
Dallas contractor, and
Jeff, a senior at the
University of Texas.
Mrs. Muckleroy and
her mother had a

close relationship, and
started teaching at the
same time. Her
mother taught English
in Nacogdoches. They
also went on a trip to
Europe visiting France
and England. She
loved to travel and has
also been to Mexico.
She enjoyed seeing if
her Spanish was
accurate and if she
could understand it.
Mrs. Muckleroy's
interests included
classical art and
history. While in
Europe, she visited
museums, galleries,
and cathedrals. She
attended art and
history lectures at the
Fine Arts Museum, and
for history lectures,
she attended meetings
for the Sons for the
Confederacy at the
Briar Club.
"The art lectures
are very interesting
and there’s something
new to learn about
each one. Instructors
would show an art
slide, and tell what
was happening in the
artist’s life and the
country around him.
They would also talk
about wars,
economics, and
leaders.” explained
Mrs. Muckleroy. She
planned on returning
to Europe when Jeff
graduates from the
UT. He also wanted to
go to law school.
"I seriously
considered being an
interpretor in high
school, because I love
to travel and meet
people, but I married
young and it just
didn't seem practical
and the teaching
business did."
Mrs. Muckleroy
taught typing. Gregg
Shorthand and
Notehand. "I don’t
have a favorite class
to teach, each one
has something
different about it to
make it interesting,”
said Mrs. Muckleroy.
"I feel students
should be aware of
their potential because
each one has
something unique
about them whether
they realize or not.”
"The most
rewarding thing is
helping the students,
not just in the
classroom but also to
realize they need to
learn to love
themselves so they
can learn to love
others." expressed
Mrs. Muckleroy.

students. She taught

been here for five

He enjoyed being an
administrator because
of the variety. "When

teacher you develop a
way of teaching and
can plan out what
happens each day.
Being an administrator
you can't plan out a

he thought that he
would either be

How Bible Study Can Change Your Life
Before I started going to Bible Study I was poor, alone, and
thought that Jericho was a new rock group. I used to sit home
thinking I was having fun or pretending I was doing
homework.
Finally, I hit bottom. A friend told me about Bible Study. At
first it was hard seeing all those people having fun, learning
new and interesting things, and making so many new friends
at once. But I got used to that.
I started to feel the beneficial effects the first week. Now
I know that JOB is an Old Testament Book and not just
something you do to make money.
NOW I'M HOOKED ON THE BIBLE STUDY HABIT! Won't
you join me?

We came to this
school excited,
young and unsure;
And now we are more
anxious and ready to
leave and mature.
As we look on the
past four years.
We see great friends,
good times and bad
times.
All of the parties
boyfriends, special
friends and memories
that we cherish to
this day.
We will always
remember them in our
own special ways.
The past four years
would not have been
the same without our
friends;
Sometimes we wish
that this time in our
life would never end.
But it does come to
an end and we all
must remember.
That the memories we
have made will last
forever.
We say we will
always keep in touch
but we all soon will
part;
And with the help of
Cod may we keep each
others memories
close to our hearts.

Eventful Memorable
The past - now that the 84-85 school year is over, this book will
help you remember the year. Not only the good times, but the
unfortunate times too. One issue affected everyone this year - HB
72. The snow on January 2-3 created excitement the last week of
Christmas vacation. The outlook on the future was bright as
construction on the new fieldhouse and ISC began and plans for
new wings were made. Elsik’s tenth year was an eventful one.
Senior Dale Peterson and
Sophomore Nina Sinha ap-
peared in the 1981
Ramblings. They were part of
the drama production Once
in a Lifetime, a play about the
lives of young hopefuls
looking for success in
Hollywood duringtheroaring
20’s.

experience but also fun. Mrs.

Job Interviews, More Homework Ahead
Seniors Await Unsure Futures
For Seniors, the
road ahead is full of
unknowns. As we
walked across the
stage on May 22 to
receive our diplomas,
suddenly the future
looked foggy. Even for
those who seem to
have the rest of their
lives planned out, they
had to think again for
a second. After all, we
were thinking about a
lifetime.
For most seniors,
there were two
choices - work or
college. Although the
working world may
have offered more
immediate
gratification, those
who could endure
another four years of
school saw a bright
future.
Modern technology
also improved the
hopes of many for the
future. Those skilled in
the area of
computers, were
almost guaranteed
work. As computers
advanced, there will
always be a need for
someone to run them.
Although the future
spurred an automatic
fear within us. it also
created a hope. This
hope was generated
by the fact that we
could now control our
future and what we
make of ourselves.
Our diplomas were the
key to the future, but
it is what we do with
them that is now
important.

A Word From Your Editor
Wow! I can't believe
that the year is
already over. It seems
like just yesterday we
were sitting in room
N121 for the first time
and I gave my speech
about how much fun
being on staff would
be.
Past Times at Elsik
High was chosen as
the theme of this book
because we wanted to
emphasize Elsik's
tenth anniversary. It
was our goal to
provide you with the
means to not only
remember 1985 but
also learn about the
past - the history of
Elsik and Alief.
Although these
histories are brief,
they are rich with
many developments.
This year the staff
was "interesting" but
we always managed to
pull together in times
of crisis and get the
job done before the
publisher's deadline.
Each personality
contributed in their
own special way.
Tanya always
managed to smile and
say okay no matter
how irate Missy
became. Debbie. I
forgot exactly how
many times she redid
the Science Club page,
succeeded even
though she came on
staff at semester. Lisa
and her sports staff
were their own little
family. The
photographers never
ceased to amaze us. I
think Vivek finally
learned how to focus
and Lee did a great
job fulfilling the legend
of Randy.
There are several
people I would like to
thank. First. Mr.
Caporiccio - your
Psychology and
Economics classes
were great because
the teacher was great.
(By the way. how bad
did Andy need it?) Mr.
Kneuven -
Government was a
real experience. I am
glad that I was
"privileged" to be in
that class. Mrs. Crump
- my day was never
complete until I saw
you. Thanks for all the
xerox copies and
chocolate Santas and
kisses. Cary Bounds -
thanks for being a
friend whenever I
needed you. You'll
never know how much
you mean to me.
Audra Sanchez.
Rampage
Editor-in-Chief - you
don't realize just how
much I appreciate you
for being there to
listen. Best of luck at
UT, I'll see you in two
years - Audrey.
Mrs. Ritter - words
have pretty much
escaped me right now
but I think you will
understand when I say
thanks, it wouldn’t
have happened
without you. Thank
you for putting up with
my missed deadlines (I
still don't know what
got into me), for
inspiring and
encouraging me and
especially for not
losing your confidence
in me.
Finally. I would like
to wish the class of
1985 the best of luck
in the future. This
book is for you so
enjoy!
Sincerely.

1977 Ramblings
demonstrates the fads
of the times. Bell-
bottom pants, long
hair, wire-rimmed
glasses, and the
flower child look
characterized students
in Elsik's early years.
On November 26,
about 200 students
gathered at the
stadium on a chilly,
windy day to have
their picture taken for
the cover. These are
just some of the
students who made it
