Homeroom doors opened to let in students. Major questions in the students' minds were “who is new?” and how was your sum- mer? The first day progressed, and minds began slowly to open up again for the academic experience. Prepared to put their best foot for- By Suzy Friedman ward, the students began classes with optimism. Teachers, too, car- ried renewed expectations for their classes. Both teachers and students knew what they had to do. A boring study hall shows Shawn Straub and Greg Allen discussing the week-end Richard Nash practices trombone in jazz band Creative cuisine teaches Bill Davis clean up as well as creation. Opening 5 SE-H0QL SOUNDS MEAN HETIVITY A Quiet Moment May Bring Inspiration Different activities began throughout the school. Shoulder pads pounded from the football team, volleyballs bounced and slammed in the gym, Torch typewriters had already put the first issue to bed. By the end of the first week, most of the students knew what was going on, except, of course, the freshmen, who re- mained in a daze for the full year. The rules had been set, and Mr. Focht had had his class meetings. Students knew what to wear, where to go, how to act, and what to try to by Suzy Friedman get away with. Once the initial ex- citement wore off, the time of hum- drum school, which only broke for winter and spring vacations, set in. But occasionally the monotony of classes was broken by something — something like a light bulb flicker- ing above students' heads. Then a key was found, a door opened to new ideas and learning. The rest was up to the students. During seventh period the cheerleaders work out new cheers in the senior lounge Symphonic choir practices new music for the winter concert. 6 Opening To bee or not to bee — Mr. David Feg buzzes through his Halloween biology lecture. New English teacher and dramatics coach, Ms Jeanne Zingale, responds to a question by Eric Zidel.

Each stu- dent was different and expected different things out of school. Student life was made up of activities other than basic school work. Some people were involved in many activities. They enjoyed a sport while also being active in peer counseling or student council. Others picked one ac- tivity in which to specialize. This one ac- tivity, like drama club, was perfected. This diversity made Bexley's students in- teresting in their quest for fun and excite- ment while pursuing their learning. Before the first home football game, Bexley High School students await the beginning of a pep rally with anticipation. Student Life 9 NEW STAFF BRINES KEY IDEAS by Keith Cheses The new members entered the 85'-86’ Bexleo staff with excitement and a great willingness to learn. The Bexleo staff’s main goal was to put together an outstanding yearbook, while learning new techniques, having fun, and working with new people. The staff met everyday, seventh period, in Room 109. The at- mosphere was informal, but fast-paced. The staff advisor, Mary Hockenbery, had an important role in the running of the staff. Her major contribution was to teach the members basic techniques on how to put the book together. The new members were made to feel that they could add im- portant ideas to the Bexleo as well as learn from old members. Some memorable times, besides those cropping pictures for lay-outs and writing copy stories, were selling ads, working concessions, and having a Halloween party. One staff member, Judith Oklander, felt, “The new members were an important feature to the staff because they came up with new ideas and were willing to work hard. Steve Page, a new member, felt, “Being a new member was excellent, and I can't wait until the next year of work.” Bexleo Chief Editors: Judith Oklander.

All of these creative and fun activities were impor- tant ingredients for a successful spirit week. Suzy Friedman chaired the social committee with assistants, Kim Winer and Gilda Tanner. The week was kicked off with tie, hat, and glasses day, followed by clash day, college t-shirt day, crayon day; rounding off the dress up days was the traditional blue and white day. In powderpuff games, the sophomores beat the seniors, and the juniors were victorious over the freshmen in the semi-finals. The sophomores won the finals by defeating the juniors. Two new activities were added this year, a tug of war and a class banner which replaced hall decorations. Themes for the banners ranged from “Sopho- mores have the Upper Hand to Something Original from the seniors. Finally, the theme of London Bridges Falling Down won as the sophomores received top float honors for the sec- ond straight year. Over all, the week was full of excited activity which promoted a lot of school spirit by combining old homecoming traditions with new and creative ideas.

Homecoming 15 0 katie _____________________________ flQMEGHMlNG: TIME FOR FUN Night Finds Karla Queen Spirit week was a special time for all of Bexley High School; it was a time to express spirit and enthusiasm for our school. A very popular part of spirit week was the election of Homecoming queen. Seniors picked the top 10 girls that they felt were qualified for the position. Usually a girl with ambition and enthusiasm for herself and her other classmates qualified. The week of voting was exciting, but the final thrill, of course, was hearing and seeing the surprise of the Homecom- ing queen being announced. For the rest of the court, not being elected was not a complete let down, because they had ex- perienced the thrill of being on the court and could always remember the fun they had of be- ing in the parade and buying new outfits for the occasion. All in all, the election of homecoming queen added to the exhilaration of the week; a feeling of en- thusiasm overtook the student body.

Topics of Student Council's dances, homecomings, and other activities filled discussions When issues wifh conflicts were brought up, like the homecoming theme, the Council was sure to take a vote It did not take long for the Student Council to decide upon a result and put it into action.

In contrast to Fall Homecoming's queen’s court, the guys represented royalty, running for king. Chosen top five this year were Matt Copp, Woody Harris, Bill Hoyer, Andrew Rosenthal, and Steve Siegal. Copp was crowned king prior to the basketball game. At the week’s end pep rally, the teachers' court of hearts and seniors’ court of hearts were announced. Ap- plause and cheers followed Mr. David Fey, taking teacher with the biggest heart and Matt Pulse, taking wildest joker among others. The main activity at the rally was the tug-of-war. The finals of this event pit- ted the teachers against the sophomores. Though a struggle, the teachers ended victorious. Winter Homecoming Dance took the Valentine Day approach with a Heart of Gold theme. The dance closed the week.

Five senior editors, eleven page editors, and a large number of reporters contributed to each copy. Color, that was used for the first time, turned out to be a success. According to Cathy Spellman, senior editor, People were willing to be a lot more creative in the way they put the paper together. They spent more time, and there were more graphics this year. Three of the artists responsible for “We were a colorful group of people. Koszitzke. Peg Zidoms, Torch advisor, said that although staffers did their work on their own time, and did not get credit for being on the staff, they beat other schools that did get credit and spent school time. “Every award they went for they usually got,” Zidonis said. “We were a colorful group of people and as a result, each issue was original, said one staff member.

The teachers attending saw the students' transformation in formal attire. Ms. Lorraine Hilton, replacing Ms. Lori Anstine as Prom Chairperson, said, Everything went as planned. I was im- pressed with the attendance, the band, and the decorations. As each couple left the dance, they received a brass picture frame with the prom date engraved on it.

In both plays we started from scratch. As the actors spent their time memorizing their parts, stage crew was planning and building the stage set. Our crew's working schedule was pretty informal. At first we members came after school when we could make it, but the crew's organiza- tion picked up about two weeks before the play was to go on. Some nights we would stay until 10:30 PM working. Many pizzas were ordered and mun- chy runs were made. We all did it for the magic. The planning, scheming, set building, and dreaming came together in opening night. The magic was the brief moment of sharing: crew, actors, and audience. Drama did not happen without an audience. That mo- by John Cappelletti ment was rare, but that was why students joined drama club and that was why people went to the plays.

They began their season quite early; the Fourth of July they made a float for the community parade. This idea was a first for the cheerleaders and was appreciated by the community. The next activity on their agenda was a summer cheerleading clinic given by two Ohio State cheerleaders. Learning new routines, mounts, formations, and preps for jumps brought variety to the squad's cheering. Each cheerleader was also asked by her advisor, Ms. Sandy Rainey, to make up either one cheer or three chants in order to gain more of a selection. On January 4, the cheerleders sponsored a dance after the basketball team's victory over Academy. According to reserve captain Jenny Weiss, the cheerleaders not only worked hard but also had the opportuni- ty to make new friends from other grades.

The main event that kicked off their year was the assembly for the high school which focused primarily on alcohol awareness. In December the P.C.'s had a retreat at the school where they worked on small group facilitation skills. Monthly Sunday brunches serv- ed as planning time for the spring when most of the community could see the work of the peer counselors. The P.C.'s went into the elementaries to work with the fifth and sixth graders, informing them about drugs and alcohol, building their self esteem and allaying some of their fears of high school In addition, to this they went to the seventh grade Camp Tar Hollow and spent one evening with each of by Sarah Arnett the four groups helping them with stress management and teaching relaxation techniques. Moreover, they started a Big Friends program with some of the children in the elementaries. Probably the biggest project of the year was to promote community spirit by inviting businesses, school organizations, and the people of Bex- ley to participate in a Spring Mardi Gras. Overall the year was filled with many successes. Judy Jester stated, Throughout the school year the peer counselors generated much spirit and many good ideas, I hope the group continues their involvement in the com- munity with even more student participation.

Being the principal is not just a job from 8:05 a m. to 3:08 p.m. Monday through Friday, as proven by Mr. Wynkoop. Each morning between classes we were greeted with a friend- ly hello by Mr. Wynkoop. But the hello did not stop there: he also greeted us at dances, plays, concerts, basketball games, football games, sports ban- quets, and awards banquets. He ex- hibited confidence in the school publica- tions, the Bexleo and the Torch. Coaching field hockey and volleyball, counseling students and organizing the peer counselors group were some of the responsibilities of Ms. Charlotte Basnett. Joining the Bexley School system nine- teen years ago, she taught physical edu- cation, coached field hockey, volleyball and basketball, and acted as the cheer- by Margot Kyle leader advisor. Gradually Ms. Basnett went into counseling and began work- ing directly with the sophomore and junior students. Whenever students had problems, they knew they could always turn to Miss 'B.' Both Mr. Wynkoop and Ms. Basnett worked with so many of us; looking back we see not only our friends and teachers, but also these two people who helped us. • k i • � ' Conversing with Mr. Donald Wynkoop at the Prom, Jenny Weiss laughs at a comment from a friend Ms Charlotte Basnett and Wynkoop discuss their future. 30 A picture from Wynkoop's first year at Bexley reveals this job keeps him young Jeff Jams and David Yenkin talk about their schedule conflicts with the Counselor, Ms Basnett Bexley High holds a good relationship with the Col- umbus Zoo when PTO adopts a cub Huddled over schedule sheets, Mr Wynkoop gives advice to Rachall Siegal SENIORS Being a lab assistant 7th period can provide Laura Working on a computer in the library, Henry Ware Perrin time to finish homework prepares for the future Lori Ashleman stares on in amazement while wat ching a field hockey game David Hores participates in the paper air plane con- test in Physics as David Peters looks on 32 Seniors SENIORS REflE-H FOR KEY TO FUTURE by Suzy Friedman Seniors lived for graduation. This year was an important time for planning their future. College applications and achievement testing were just the beginning There was a lot of life beyond Bexley. Seniors were becoming more and more aware of this fact. Happy moments were sometimes interrupted by thoughts of soon to be said good-byes. By February the year was moving quickly, and sometimes seniors wished it would slow down. Seniors Jackie Wagner and Suzy Addy tune their in- struments before practicing.

How about your ACT'S or Achievements? What colleges are you applying to? Are you going to college or working next year? What is your point average? All of these were typical questions that bom- barded seniors in their final year of high school. The life of a senior was extremely busy. It seemed as though we were always on the go and in constant turmoil deciding what to do after graduation. Most seniors were making plans to at- tend college; yet, there were some who were going straight into the working world. Whatever route we chose, we knew that life after high school would be exciting, new and even a little scary. We would have to leave our old friends, family ties, and homes, and begin a whole new experience.

MM 5ENIGR FLQflT: BEST EVER Seniors Pull Together To Get In Parade At the beginning of the '85 homecoming week, the seniors were not yet serious. The senior float was more of a party than a school function. People were talking, laughing and having fun, but there was no float on the flatbed. Towards the end of the week we became worried. What would we do without a float? Thus, the seniors pulled together and made the best float of our high school careers. Although the float placed third, most considered it a first place float. Once again, the class of '86 showed with a lit- tle hard work and determina- tion, a large task could be ac- complished with excellence.

Some might have said it was even non-existent. But then apathy has often been the best way to describe seniors of all high schools. Seniors felt this way because it was their final year of high school. Most of their high school worries were over. Sean Romanoff viewed senior spirit this way: “The seniors try to repress any senior spirit because they feel that’s the way they’re supposed to act.” This year, however, seniors showed they had only an outside shell of apathy. In some ways, a lit- tle spirit crept through. This was quite evident by the success of all the fall sports. Due to the support and spirit of the fans, the players, and the seniors, the fall sports had a better overall turnout than ever before. Judy Oklander works at a rapid pace building the senior float during spirit week by stuffing pomps into the chicken wire Senior field hockey team members — Blythe Price.

The outcome of such quality leader- ship was evident by this year’s winning records and awards. Matt Copp said, ‘‘[Participation in activities] was a way to challenge myself to achieve my highest potential. Scott Kondrake said, ‘‘Activities gave us a chance to learn and display our special talents. Different people had other reasons for participating; each with his or her own personal goal. For some the decision whether they should or should not par- ticipate in extra curricular ac- tivities was a difficult one. Some of us felt that they were the most important part of high school, while others did not share these feelings. The decision all de- pended on our values. Mike Glim- cher, however, felt extra cur- ricular activities were priceless: People who were uncertain about their capabilities, who were unwilling to take a risk — they should realize being a member of a team was like being a member of a family.” Bart Rhoten spends much time in the band room practicing for an upcoming concert. 42 Seniors Wendy Gurwm — Gurr 8 2 68.

They were put in a new environment and from that point began to develop values that would suit their needs. They started to change their junior high friends as their needs changed. Close friend- ships began to develop be- tween students with the same by Sham Topolosky interests. As the years pro- gressed, friendship flourished and new friends were con- stantly made. By 1986, the class was a group of young adults who shared many of the same wants and interests. The class was able to look back on high school years with smiles as they remembered the friends with whom they shared so much, tears as well as laughter. Stastia Earl, Ajitha Jammala, a native from India, and Diane Tague spend the holidays together and show they will be friends forever even though continents separate them Julie Mormol and Tricia Moriarity prac- tice cheers in the hall to get pepped up before they cheer at the basketball game. Karla Ratherford and Tiffany Rodenfels clown around in the hall to get motivated for their upcoming basketball practice Senior pals, Tracy Katz, Don Ball, Henry Ware, Debbie Fought and Cathy Spellman, share good times at the float as they take a break from working on the senior float. Heather Hardesty and Sharon Richards attempt to study for an up- coming math exam in the noisy senior hall. Cheerleaders, Jane Schulinger and Rachel Caplin, will always remember the good times they had working on cheers and spending the last period of the day together in the cheer- leader’s study hall. Diane Tague and Judy Jester can always be found in Diane's kitchen whipping up brownie treats as they prepare for their future careers as gourmet dessert chefs.

Judy Oklander reflected upon her working experience by stating, “It’s a good way to earn money during high school, but it's not the type of job I want for the rest of my life. Get a job! were the words that rang through many seniors' homes. Their parents were pressuring them, and they had the problem of being able to afford things that they wanted Because of this prob- lem many seniors hunted for jobs. Most of them found jobs at fast food restaurants, ice cream parlors, grocery stores and the library, but some found more unusual jobs at movie theaters, car washes and gift shops.

We were the brains, the jocks, the preps, and the outcasts. We were all part of one or two of these groups. Basically, we all had differences. Some students enjoyed constant study. Some were always found competing in sports. Some were always having fun while others were working at jobs. Whether it was a school event or a private gathering, everyone expressed in- dividuality. The class of '86 will long be remembered for its individuality.

Ski Club 4 by Diane Tague The senior year was highlighted by the thought of graduating and moving on; yet, it was not an easy road to graduation. Seniors spent many long, tiring and frustrating evenings figuring out trig functions, preparing astronomy labs, studying Attila the Hun, speaking French sentences, stu- dying Spanish culture, watching Carl Sagan on Cosmos, paying taxes in Clug, reading William Shakespeare, and writing Mr. Trotter’s famous Renaissance Resumes. Although stu- dying is never fun, it was much easier when seniors had a pal or two over to cram for a World history test or figure out a conclusion to a physics lab. Laura Perrin found an original way to study her physics. I studied forces while traveling in my CRX around Bex- ley. Those were the days.” Patty Hughes displays her great ability of paper airplane throwing during a physics lab on gravitation. SENIORS REFLEET studied forces while traveling in my CRX” SENIORS CRUISE THROUGH SCHOOL by Matt Buckley It has been the fascination of teenagers for many years: the long lasting love affair be- tween man and his machine, the car. For me, it was my tran- sition to independence and freedom. The cars of high schoolers varied greatly, as did the people who drove them. Some drivers went for efficiency, while others went for speed and power Who was it that coined the phrase, It will pass anything but the pump? The automobiles, no matter what kind they were, belonged to proud owners. The owners, unafraid, ostentatiously pa- raded their cars around, in what came to be known as cruising. Some considered it a waste of gas, but gasoline did not matter to the cruisers. It was a time to sit back, relax, and show off what one had. Mike Glimcher said, Cruis- ing is a way of meeting peo- ple; it has become a way of life in Bexley; everyone does it. Probably everybody has ex- perienced the thrill, when walking home from school, seeing a cruiser pass by. The stereo blasting, the engine roaring they were the few, the proud, the cruisers. After successfully completing her fly- ing examination, Stastia Earl proudly displays her new Cessna 152 at Port Columbus As David Peters stands by his Mustang on Brentwood Road he says his favorite phrase, This is mass chaos! Future G Q model, Mike Glimcher, sits calmly and coolly on his Nissan 2 car in the school parking lot Troy Smalley sits on his car and pa- tiently awaits his cruising buddies so he can begin his daily cruise around Bexley. 56 Seniors Seniors 57 As Sheila Bellamy sits back on her car, she recalls all the fun she had in the summer cruising in her bug convertible.

According to Ms Margaret Zidonis, the seniors became more aware that they were participating in their school ac- tivities for the last time, and became more aware of their classmates. The first weeks of school along with the rest of the senior year possessed special memories for the class of '86 At the float, senior superiority shows as Judy Jester, Alisha Landis, Tracy Katz, Debbie Fought, Stacey Izeman.

This was especially true for seniors. Many seniors spent a vast amount of hours agonizing over physics labs, government and economics quizzes, senior biology pa- pers and French skits. Al- though we did not always like studying, in the end we found it paid off and broad- ened our knowledge. The class of '86 was filled with many dedicated and talented students. Although each member of the class had his or her own special abilities, about fifteen seniors were honored as National Merit Semi-Finalists or Com- mended Scholars. The class of '86 will be noted for its success in the classroom. Bonjour, Linda Harris.

A large majority of seniors, though, spent many hours at home playing on a basketball court, at recreation centers around town or weight lif- ting at a weight training center. Social activities also filled the year. Music king provided many memorable evenings at homecoming and the first annual Bexley Eve. Before winter vaca- tion, seniors treated themselves to taffy in Physics and enjoyed each other’s company at holiday parties. The Mardi Gras was a community event where many businesses around town set up booths. The prom and all night party rounded out the year.

The dance is far from the end of the night for Kathleen Shyjka and John Kochensparger as they continue to party until early hours of the morning. 64 Seniors After three years the members of the class of 1986 were finally seniors. Each one of the 154 students in the class added something special. The class was diverse, but always managed to stick together. All through the high school years, most students enjoyed the comfort and support of close friends, while being active in a wide circle of casual friends. It would be the close friend- ships, however, that would be remembered and kept after graduation. These friendships formed deep bonds over the years, through the loud, rowdy times as well as quiet, mellow moments. It was the close friends who helped seniors survive and enjoy the soon- ending days at Bexley High School. Bexley's Breakfast Club, composed of the brain, Stastia Earl, the jock, Diane Tague, the rebel, Matt Buckley, the bizarre, Sherri Katz and the beauty, Judy Jester, can always be found hanging out in the senior lounge. At the senior float Sharon Richards shows Stacey Izeman, Debbie Pugh and T K.

Meyer spoke about the future with a speech titled Back to Your Future: Bexley and Beyond. The graduation also signified the last one for Prin- cipal Donald G. Wynkoop. Wynkoop started his career as principal of Bexley High School 13 years ago, as the class of '86 began kindergarten. PAGE SPONSORED BY MR. AND MRS. MICHAEL J.

SENIORS PARTY IN TAE LAND QF BEXLEY The annual senior party was held at Jeffery Mansion follow- ing the graduation ceremony. Seniors were treated to an evening full of fun led by the sounds of Music King. Gam- bling, a magic show, video con- tests, movies such as “Animal House” all added to make this night one to remember. The by Diane Tague theme of the party was “This Land Is Your Land and the en- trance to the party was a boat and under The Statue of Liber- ty.

PRINCIPAL, COUNSELOR RETIRE byAndi Shell Even though it was hard to believe, at the end of the school year, Ms. Charlotte Basnett, sophomore counselor, and Principal Don Wynkoop planned to retire. While we tended to think of retirement as an unending vacation, they did not. Wynkoop had received many offers for future jobs. Basnett planned to work part-time, along with being involved in volunteer clubs. Of course, both must have had a reason for retiring. Since this was Basnett’s nineteenth year at Bexley, she thought it was time she gave a younger person a chance. She loved her job because the kids were great, upbeat, goal-oriented, and tended to listen. Along with being sophomore counselor, Basnett was the career education coordinator and dealt with students who did not plan to go to a four year college. She was the girls field hockey assistant coach for the last four years. She was ready for a change. Wynkoop agreed that it was time for a change. He had enjoyed being around young people, and he said he would miss the student body. Still he said, “I came in when this year's seniors were in kindergarten; I'll be leaving with them. Wynkoop added, It’s going to be different because I’m going to miss all the relationships I have built within the school. He hoped his future job would hold the same amount of fun. Since Wynkoop basically has never had a Friday Night free since he began his career, he wondered what he was going to do on the upcoming T.G.I.F.'s. We all wondered what Bexley High School would be like without both of them. Board of Education: Mr Gene Weiss, Ms Melinda Blakie, Ms Judy Hise. Dan Price.

An average junior had five classes consisting of a language, U S History, a math class, a science class and upper level English Emmie Cheses said, “School was tough, but I survived and I learned a lot.” One of the most difficult classes during the junior year was college composition taught by Carole Jarrell. In her class, a college-type research paper was written which was to enable the students to compose better papers in the future. Another important event that took place during the 85-86 year was the P.S.A.T. and the A.S.V.A.B. The junior year was an important year for beginning the process of picking a career and finding the college of one’s dreams.

O’Neill Jr. People 79 “I'M WORKING EXTRA ■HARD by Karin Gross Striving for educational excellence was in the minds of most juniors. Achieving high SAT ACT scores was the primary goal of all juniors preparing to attend a four year col- lege. The other concern on the minds of juniors was applying to and getting accepted at a college of their choice. This year I’m working extra hard in school to insure getting into the college of my choice, explained Staci Blanchard. Choosing a college became a major task due to the variety of schools available, but with the help of the guidance counselors and careers class, juniors prepared for the future.

The theme was Raid the Raiders.” A giant Raid can was pointed at a raider who was wearing a tie dye t-shirt. The banner on the front of the float was a hodge-podge of peo- ple's names and peace signs done with spray paint. The night before homecoming all the juniors were at John Bauer's, but few people were helping on the float. Most just sat around socializing. Bill Miller was running around trying to get people to help, and it looked like the float would never get done. The original plan to put someone inside the “Raid can and spray a fire extinguisher fell through. That was the junior's one hope of doing something different to make their float 1. But the junior spirit and originality came through in the end as they pulled off second place. As Michelle Kuhn finds out, there are always con- sequences for missing school — make-up tests. Scott Hoyer and Ted Taggart show that three years of experience pay off for a better float. ciUNIQRS RAID HOMECOMING by Anne Paul Starting off the day with a smile, Jim Fate heads off to school.

Worrying about grades and doing well on PSAT's next year were also concerns. One thing sophomores did not lack was spirit, and that spirit was shown during fall homecoming week. By defeating the seniors and the juniors in Powder Puff, the sophomores were well on their way to show- ing most spirit. Then, winning the tug-of-war and dress-up days, they had eliminated any competition in taking spirit week ourselves. Turning 16 was of great importance. “16“ meant finally not having to walk or having “mom” come pick us up. Getting the car for the evening became a ma- jor accomplishment. Being able to just cruise around was a luxury. In all, the year was one we would never forget.

Their class spirit helped them win Spirit Week for a second year in the fall and gave them the winning tug-of-war team at Bexley, se- cond only to the faculty. Even so most sophomores just wanted to make it through the year. Their academic courses were tough; most students carried biology, English, geometry, a third year language, health and physical education. Living weekend to weekend, they made it.

Although fruit flies and other ac- quaintances gained throughout the course will not soon be forgotten, the relationships the students formed with their frogs as they learned about their own anatomy through that of their frogs was special. One student commented on how most people were apprehensive when first working on the frogs but then became intrigued by their intricacy. As Christi Stephenson put it, ‘‘It was gross, but kind of interesting! As students cut up the frogs, they had so lovingly named they learned about the various systems that made up a body as well as the fears of their classmates. Overall, it was a wor- thwhile and rewarding unit for all the students, if not the frogs. v V'-.r r •' Paul Morganski Mike Monarty Erie Morrow Julie Myers Mane Myers Stacey Myers Jonathon Nanberg Dwight Nipper!

One of these firsts was freshmen’s first homecoming. Freshmen showed their spirit homecoming week as the girls practiced daily for the Powder Puff game and as students met at the Governor’s Mansion to construct a homecoming float. Although both of the competitions led to disappoint- ment, freshmen kept their spirit up and continued to have fun through the week. Joanna Brown thought that the best part of homecoming was seeing the grade pull together to reach a goal. Freshman students smile at their progress as they work through the night on their float.

The class of '89 raised the most amount of money in Bexley High School history. The profits from the magazine sale exceeded $4,300. The students also met their goals academically. Dana Bromberg said, “School is a place where students can get a grasp on knowledge and use it to their advantage. Students also excelled in individual sports. Records were set by students in swimming, track and tennis. Many other freshmen met their individual goals that they never believed they could achieve.

Freshmen left behind the nervous feeling of the first day of school and stepped into confidence. Stacy Chandler said that she was a little nervous the first day of school but soon began to feel comfortable with the surroundings and the other students. Freshman students can remember giving their first speech, turning in their English term paper, and learning to operate water clocks for FOCUS. Most of all students can look back on their freshman year as the beginning of new friendships.

Girls Tennis 101 • LINK5TERS SWING TQ WINNING SEflSQN by Phil Pag | The Bexley High School Varsi- ty golf team finished their season with a 16-12 record led by the strong play of the only two seniors, Co-captains Matt Copp and John Kochensparger. Coach Addy felt the team could have had a more successful season if the team had been a little more consistent. He also went on to say, Next year's team should be very good if they have the right attitude. Co-captain John Kochens- parger said, “The success of the team this year was due to the large amount of under- classmen. He also went on to say, Next year’s team, with 8 seniors, should be awesome if they start to think. Co-captain Matt Copp agreed with John saying that the amount of experience received at the varsity level this year should be reflected in next year's play.” One of next year’s seniors, Mike Katcher, revealed his theory. The Katcher Theory: Attitude-Confidence-Effort These are important in the game of golf. Although our record showed a lack of at- titude, confidence, effort, and sometimes course etiquette, we had a great time. Next year we hope to improve on our record by building up our con- fidence level and thus recog- nizing our ability to succeed. Matt Copp was the only golfer to go into post-season play. Matt went to the State Golf Tournament at the Ohio State University Golf Courses on Oc- tober 18th and 19th and fin- ished 10th out of a field of 42. John Kochensparger also add- ed that Matt Copp's late season show of excellence should be an inspiration to the younger players next year. PAGE SPONSORED BY THE GARY GILLER FAMILY 102 Got!

The Lions won the intense match and continued unbeaten in the league except for two losses to Jonathon Alder and North Union According to senior co- captam, Jennifer Winer, ‘Each team that beat us, league and non-league, went on to be at least district qualifiers.” Tague and Winer both attributed the fine season to first year head coach, Vince Speciale, who said, “Our conditioning was im- proved over last years.

At the beginning of this year, we had little reason to believe that we'd be better than last year. The 85-86 season would seemingly be a rebuilding year for Bexley. As it turned out though, with the newly acquired coach from Upper Arlington, Thane Hecox, this season would turn out to be a memorable one. average of 26 points. On November 1, the last game of the season against Marysville, Bexley had hopes of going to the state finals. The computer points though fell short of be- ing state contenders. Bexley had to settle for the un- disputed title of C.B.L. with a league record of 7-0. Coach Hecox added, “We knew we could do it right from the beginning of the season.” Hecox proved that he was a winning coach and the right man for the job.

Academics 137 STRIVE FQR EXEEbbENEE PAYS 0FF By Shani Topolosky On Thursday, May 14, 1986, Bexley High School held its traditional National Honor Society Assembly. This assembly was held to commemorate those students who excelled in scholarship, leadership, community, and service. Only those juniors with a grade point of at least 3.00, and seniors with a grade point of at least 2.8 qualified. After students qualified, the teachers rated them on the four categories above. These guidelines made the society, for some, one of the biggest achievements in high school; as one junior put it, It is an honor being one of the few members selected to the society.” Student excellence did not stop here. The 1986 graduates will be remembered for carrying on the high academic standards for which Bexley High School is known.

British literature classes planned activities for other students to participate in during lunch and fifth period. Students could play croquet or a game of human Othello. There was also the traditional maypole dance, performed by French students. Around the front of the school yard various booths were set up, some selling refreshments. One of the most popular spectacles was Judd Walson's where he performed magical tricks. For entertainment, Shakespearean type dramas were performed by students from performing arts classes and social studies club. Brad May viewed the festival as a really original idea for students to learn about the Shakespearean times and a very good excuse to get out of fifth period.

During the course of the week, barracudas, sting rays, and even nurse sharks had been observed while snorkeling. Along with swimming in the ocean, the participants also hiked up Morgan's Bluff in order to see a breathtaking view of the ocean and went into Nicoles Town to buy ice cream. “I especially liked swimming in the blue hole, remembered Anne Paul. (A blue hole resembles a lake with fresh water on top and salt water beneath running to the ocean.) Surviving the unbearable conditions such as cold showers, no electricity, sand fleas, cockroaches, and lizards was nothing compared to the 25 hour bus ride from Columbus, Ohio, to Miami, Florida. The experiences gain- ed and friendships made would always exist in the minds of the participants.

One of the new additions was a new math teacher, Mr. Thane Hecox. He also coached varsity football. Towards the end of the year, Mr. Dick Lodge resigned from the math department to share his expertise with the boys of Academy. In place of Ms. Becky Manley, who took over Mr. Lodge’s place, Ms. Morrison contributed her knowledge of math and tennis for the last half of the year. In the Science department things went on as usual. Mr. Fey taught animal behavior, through frogs, pill bugs, and fruit flies, as he has done for the past 13 years. Mr. Fey said, Students don't give enough credit to themselves for understanding biology.” Seniors also continued their study of biology through the dissection of earthworms, starfish, squid and shark. Physics continued studying energy, light and heat. Light waves were studied in depth. R. G. Smith was temporarily absent from chemistry when he went to the far East to give his contributions as the head of a clinic, teaching his chemistry techniques to others. 146 Academics Amy Shamansky and her lab partner carefully follow procedures to complet successful physics lab Jason Cohen concentrates on making precise calculations in physics class % an important lab.

With visits from Michael Hurwitz as Mark Twain and Duncan Inches as William Shakespeare the English classes offered the student body treats. Humanities classes also viewed plays; Blithe's Spirit at- Capital University and Taming of the Shrew at Otterbein College. The Drexel Theatre played a big part in field trips too; this year showing movies Ran and Le Chevre. French III student Kim Winer thought Le Chevre was a great slap- stick comedy. Performing Arts, British Literature, and the Social Studies Club sponsored performances at the Renaissance Festival this spring. French students demonstrated the May-Pole dance. The ensembles sang, and other in- dividuals sold food at booths, such as ale” (Kool-Aid) and Renaissance Pizza. Language club had several gatherings and held a welcoming party for the new exchange students. They also went caroling in the winter and had a picnic at Jeffery Mansion in late May.

Some students followed up their special interests by attending specialized classes at BHS. Two of these courses were home economics and industrial arts. If students wanted to pursue their interests further, they had the option of enrolling at Eastland Career Center. This vocational school enabled students to obtain valuable knowledge so that they could get employment immediately after graduation. The high school administration paid the tuition for Bexley students who attended. The students spent five out of the seven periods to practice their trade. These trades included carpentry, food management, electronics, drafting and welding. Such alter- natives permitted students to take a step beyond in their area of special interests. Heather McGuer, member of the Parliamentary Procedure team, types diligently on the com- puter. This team is part of a state competition run by the Ohio Education Association (O.E.A.). Competition between vocational schools across Ohio placed Eastland 2nd in the state. Tim Fox works on an electronics project.

Activities were a key to the development of students in high school. They gave each person a chance to learn and grow in ways other than school work. They sometimes unlocked interests that continued beyond high school through college and into life. The band lunes its instruments for a hall time perfor- mance during a home football game.

N 156 Band BAND RISES ABOVE ITS E-HEESE AND SAUSAGE As the year came to a close, the band also ended a year of play. With one of the largest bands in Bexley history, about 95 people, many goals were met. Early in the year the band helped a great deal to meet the 6000 dollar mark in the cheese and sausage sale. “Being such a big group there was never a dull mo- ment, stated director Jeff Schneider. Marching band started off with a hard-working week in August at camp. The ten weeks of marching band the group drew together in order to produce exciting half-time shows. The next part started with concert band which attended a contest where they scored lower than anticipated. Band members met and practiced every day throughout the school year.

First of all, many more students decided to join the choir this year, especially new freshmen. Since choir was much larger than usual, it became more difficult for in- structor, Mr. Joel Mathias, to work with all the new students. Mr. Mathias had to become more strict with people. The choir put on several concerts throughout the school year including the fall concert, winter concert and spring concert. During choir students met many people, especially in other grades. Choir also had some other ad- vantages. One of them was that in the fall and spring heat, they could always look forward to the choir room being air conditioned. Next, they often got to choose the song they wanted to sing if it was available. Overall, It was an en- joyable laid back atmosphere which was easy to learn in, said one of the choir members. Choir 159 PAGE SPONSORED BY MR. AND MRS. THOMAS A. FALTER f GflRISTQP-HERSQN LEADS STRINGS by Julie Chorpennmg A group of hard working and dedicated people came together one period a day to pull together their talents to entertain audiences. In the past year the orchestra per- formed in four concerts and competed in one contest. At the contest they received a “2 rating out of 5. In the orchestra there were a few outstanding students that excelled. One of these students was Becki Christopher- son, who led the violin section and par- ticipated in many competitions throughout Ohio. Besides competing she worked with other orchestra groups, such as Columbus Youth Orchestra, Ohio Suzuki, and String Choir, which was organized in Bexley High School. String Choir was a selection of our best players in the Orchestra. They performed many different events around the city. This was one way Bexley orchestra reached into the community.

Sherri Katz said, “Foreign languages are a part of today's society, and it is important to know what job op- portunities are open to students. Lamplight, the literary magazine, was also a very impor- tant club. Cathy Spellman, a member of the Lamplight staff, stated that the stories and poems were especially creative this year. The In-the-Know had a very successful year. They were co-champion of the NE region. Dan Price said, This year was the best season in all the recent years.

NEW CLUBS PROVE by Andi Shell This year's debate club performed mainly as individuals instead of as a team. JoAn Miller was the advisor who took the members to the matches, which were held anywhere from Troy to Toledo. One example of an individual event occurred when a contestant delivered a speech to three different judges; his score would be an average of the three. The winner came home with the largest trophy. Nobody made it to the state tournament; however, Jason Cohen came within two points of competing. Social Studies Club met periodically to discuss current events which affected their lives Mr Ben Trotter, history department head, was the advisor. Guest speakers performed. The club planned many activities. For example, they participated in the Renaissance Festival performing a skit of This is Your Life, Elizabeth R. Home Ec. Club was not just another cooking and sewing club, but a group trying to prove that home economics pertained to everyone's life. The group attended spring rallies, conven- tions, and seminars. They met with other home ec clubs throughout the state at these seminars. Next year they planned to attend more seminars and get more people involved 164 Activities 166 Activities Library Workers: Troy Smalley, Susan Skilken, Richard Nash Office Helpers: Front Row: John Kochensparger, Randy Kaplan, Heather Hardesty, Debbie Pugh, Stacey Izeman, Sharon Richards, Mindy Podkin.

' ASSISTANTS ENJ0Y WORKING Most students had a favorite course. Some liked science; some home economics; others preferred industrial arts. Although a student enjoyed a class thoroughly, each class only lasted one period per day. But there was hope for in- dustrial arts, science, and home economics fanatics. They became lab assistants. Those students who enjoyed the classes, were upperclassmen, and got along with the teachers could help out their favorite teacher as assistants. Teachers had many tedious tasks which they did not like; thus, they could delegate them to their favorite students, their lab assistants. Lab assistants were not paid, but they could write lab assis- tant as an extracurricular activity on col- lege applications. Although the benefits were not many; it sure beat study hall!!!

Each student and teacher had many memories to take along with them for the rest of their lives. Given their final key to Bexley High School, Mr. Donald Wynkoop and Ms. Charlotte Basnett prepared to leave. The retirement of these two fine people would be a loss to those who have known and worked with them throughout the years. Ms. Charlotte Basnett joined the Bexley High School faculty in 1967. She began as a physical education teacher, and coached girls sports, but gradually moved into the guidance department where she spent close to eight years along with continuing to coach field hockey. In 1973 Mr. Donald Wynkoop became Bexley's principal. Working at Bexley for 13 years Mr. Wynkoop gain- ed status and respect for his excep- tional involvement with the community and students. He related to students on a personal basis, always making conversation with them and showing an interest in each as an invididual. Although Mr. Wynkoop and Ms. Basnett will be moving on, they will always have a special place in the minds of students and teachers who worked with them over the years.
