Brick, paint, the stadium too! Look once, look twice and see what’s remembered. The fall of 1984 came, and with it the shaky beginning of a new school year. To simplify the redistricting process this year, bus routes and schedules were done by computer. However, things did not run as smoothly as planned. There were many mix-ups with pick-up points and times. For the first couple of weeks of school, students had to wait for the buses to arrive, at which time they could be dismissed from school. Their patience certainly was tested. During these trying days, eighth period ended at 2:50, quite a difference from last year when the final bell rang promptly at 2:17. An addition of one-half of the ninth graders and new teachers was another result of the redistricting, and the population of our school seemed to double overnight. Renovations which had started in the summer were far behind schedule when the school opened its doors on September fifth. Students and staff were welcomed back by the odor of tar, a torn apart gym, locker room and library. Unfinished home economics rooms and locker complications added to the disarray. Amidst all of the confusion, we doubled our efforts to double our fun and make this school year the best one possible. Clubs and class activities started right away. During the months of September to November we were innundated by candy sales and other fund raisers. In September the senior class held a car wash in order to raise funds to help pay for their double distance class trip in February to Florida. The new concept of “activity days” was started this year. Fifteen days were set aside in order for guest speakers to visit and class activities to be discussed. A modified schedule on these days allowed thirty minutes at the end of the day for these special assemblies to take place. By the time Homecoming Weekend rolled around, spirits were high throughout the school. And what a weekend it was, with a “double header” under the new lights at Pelcher Stadium. Friday night, the football game against Oswego ended victoriously with a score of 21-7. On Saturday, the marching band hosted the first band show, “Fantasy In Sound,” to ever take place in Baldwinsville. Along with all of the fun and school activities, students and staff had current events to think about. The presidential campaign brought about new issues and controversies when Walter Mondale nominated Geraldine Ferraro to be his running mate. Changes in attitudes and ideas, that’s certainly what this year was all about. The changes in our school were intended to help us grow and to make our learning environment twice as good as years before. And though it took a while to get the ball rolling, the end results were well worth the wait. You, your friends, and all the changes Made for a year worth remembering for ages. So stop and take another look At the memories gathered inside this book! Marta Grutka At Pelcher Stadium the band plays for the whole school. You can always find them practicing in the parking lot to perfect their show.

The chipping paint on our stairways has been revitalized. A clean, fresh coat of gray and black make the old stairs look like new. Our cafeteria has been given a homey effect through the addition of hanging plants. Now, games and competitions can be held at Pelcher Stadium during the evenings, since we have new lights. They enabled B’ville to hold our homecoming game at home. What is done is only a start. There were hopes of getting everything finished before the students returned to school. Unfortunately, delays in shipment of supplies kept work from being finished. For some students, soon is not good enough. There have been many complaints and even letters to the editor. Despite delays, renovations have brought improvements to Baker. 6 Renovations Andrea Lockwood Kelly Burdick Painting large numbers on the doo'_ s 0r “ students to find their way more easily as shown here by Mike Mckeigue.

WBXlI hard ,he new '-«on of 8 Renovations D«bbl« Petit TAKE IT APART The renovations continued throughout the fall of this school year. The reason for this was the lack of workers and supplies to get the job done. This applied to the girls’ locker room, WBXL, and the home ec. room. In the girls’ locker room they took apart the lockers and put them on blocks in cages, and they’re also putting in new tiles. WBXL has changed its location from past years. It was a complete change and needed to be re-done practically all over. The home ec. room went through quite a bit of changes. It was torn completely apart and put back together with new counters, cabinets, appliances, furniture, and along with a new floor. There were many disappointed students as well as faculty when school had resumed in September. As Mr. Coleman said, “It has been a very frustrating situation.” Yes, it was very frustrating, but the students and faculty learned to live with it until all the fixing was finished. It seemed as if all the chaos would never end, but the day came and the improvements in our school improved the attitude of the people in our school. We know this because Pam Bennett told us, “I’ll be happy when all this is over.” Some students can’t seem to get enough of com- puters such as Dave Bailey, Steve Nadalen, Meg Taylor and Jeff Jacobs.

Couples began arriving at the Ramada Inn on Friday, May 18 at 7:00 for the start of a great night. When they entered the ballroom they found it beautifully decorated in shades of blue and white with balloons and streamers to depict the “Heavenly” scene. Everyone found a table to sit at and a buffet was brought out for dinner. Romantic couples kept to themselves, while others DOUBLE DATING or triple dating believed a larger group was more exciting. When Bruce Warwick was asked why he preferred double dating he replied, “Double dating to the prom gives you the opportunity to be with your other friends, along with your date.” The fun started after dinner when the prom’s band “Pyramid” played everyone’s favorite songs. Couples swarmed the dance floor and danced until it was 1:00. Some people then headed home for the evening, but for others the prom was just the beginning. Carloads of people headed toward parties and camps where their celebration lasted all night. Kelly Burdick Since dancing was one of the highlights of the night, Shawn Hatpin, Chris Weigelt and Chip Pettitt prepare to show us how they break.

The path is a necessary part of many students’ school day. “Can’t live without it,” says Kim Haskins. Many students face cold, winter weather and rainy days to meet their friends on the path. Even bad weather can’t discourage people from gathering outside. The path is a great place for good times with friends. Beth Kresge TAKE Each morning, we all stumble, half awake, towards school. Some students begin their day with a quick trip to the path. “The path is a great place to meet friends and start off the day,” says Dani Bowers. . Not only mornings, but during lunches and after school, you can always find a group out on the path. “Not everyone goes out to smoke.

Path 13 TAKIN’ A BREAK 14 Summer Andrea Lockwood Regents have been taken, graduation ceremonies are over, and students have what many feel are the best two months of the year ahead of them. Most of us value the time to sleep late, and to take a break from our regulated school days. We have time to reflect on our past school year and prepare for the one ahead. Summer’s a time when everyone’s outdoors swimming, bikeriding, jogging, or just soaking up the rays. Other students are found working hard at part-time jobs or in summer school, but still saving time for fun. Trips are often the most memorable part of summer vacation. It’s a great chance to explore new people and places. The most memorable part of sophomore Lisa Pratt’s summer vacation was the tiring but fun band camp at the end of August. Tomahiro Harad, from Japan, sees meeting the president of Japan and coming to the U.S. as the highlights of his summer. The final days of vacation bring the New York State Fair, where many Baker students are either working or enjoying the many attractions. “YES” was a popular event at the past fair along with the favorite rides, foods, and games. As school arrives, many of us are ready to get back into classes, clubs, and sports but will never forget our great summer.

Cynily Tall Summer 15 TAKE ME 16 Foreign Exchange Michelle McCormick AWAY For over thirty years, foreign exchange programs have been present in Baker High. This year we have seven exchange students whose trips have been made possible through various organizations such as Youth for Understanding and Rotary. Several countries are represented this year. From Spain both Alejandro Bourne and Javier Perez are visiting. Alejandro is a sophomore, unlike the others who are all seniors. The other students are: Georgios VaMilakis from Greece, Tomoharo Harada from Japan, Ola Olsson from Sweden, Rolf Christiansen from West Germany, and Malene Rydhard who comes to us from Denmark. Mastering a new language, making new friends, and experiencing a new culture is an exciting adventure for many of these students. As Rolf Christiansen says, “Many people in my country would like to come to America to visit. I am lucky to have been able to come, it's been quite enjoyable and I’ve learned a lot about the people.” We are proud to have come to our school and live in our homes to learn about our way of life. We hope that we have helped to make their American experience twice as nice.

No matter what the reason is, everyone loves giving and receiving smiles. Luanne Brown Snatched jus, in the nick of lime, BrJ, ? fervl Ba f'°™ the dangers that the hallways at Baker High. DOUBLE A smile is one of the keys to a happy life. As the song goes, “You’re never fully dressed without a smile.” When you smile, it’s catchy. Flashing your pearly whites brightens up everyone’s day. A smile can mean a number of things. People smile when they’re happy, sarcastic, snickering, or when someone else smiles at them. “I smile when I’m happy. I’m happy when I’m with my friends, and especially when I’m with, or thinking about, my boyfriend. Then, I really show my teeth!” says Kim Chalone. Kelley Brown’s favorite singer Pam B«nnet Is Marie Arcuni forcing this smile after eating one of the school’s lunches? Maybe she will de- cide to eat out tomorrow.

Pam Bennett Pam Bennett 20 Lunch Te'«a Bembury Lunch 21 TAKE A BITE We all know the feeling of anticipation those last few minutes before lunch as most students eagerly await the bell. This year students have even more to look forward to than in years before. The many improvements In the school this year has also brought about an improvement in the food that is being served. More students are buying the school lunch this year and less food is being wasted. Even though the school lunches are well liked, many people opt for taste rather than nutrition, like Fred Broome, a junior, who says “I eat french fries and a cookie for lunch!” There are many activities which go on during lunch, tickets to important games and flowers for homecoming or important holidays are sold. Even though the cafeteria is a place full of activity many students prefer to go off school grounds for lunch. Popular hang out spots during lunch are Burger King and the B’ville Bake Shoppe. If it is a nice day many students go outside the school and enjoy a few relaxing minutes with friends before the bell will ring for the next class. Joanne Pantaleo, a junior, says, “lunch time is a great time to be with friends!” This year there are many activities during lunch and there is something for everyone to do during a great time of the day. Pam Bennett Students like Lynette Dugar, Pat Halpin, Scott Florsyclc, Tomo Harada and Javier Perez crowd the lunchroom for good food and good times. After Marla Allen devoured the scrumptious school lunch, Shelley House attempts to get some food but doesn’t have much luck.

This year B’ville’s spirit has really switched on, move events are attended and pep rallies are alive. Students really got to show their enthusiasm by participating in decorating the halls, dress-up day, hat day, and at the Pep Rally during Homecoming Spirit Week. Spirit started the year rolling during Homecoming when the new B’ville Bee Mascot, Buzzy, was introduced to tfe B’ville fans. As Gina Phelps said, “We show great spirit during Homecomirg, but it shouldn’t stop there.” Well, it didn’t stop there, flashes of Red and White are always seen in he stands at every sporting event, and cheers from the crowd are endless. B’ville spirit is on the rise, so joir the excitement. Be a part of the fu:i, and feel the electricity at BHS. Cone on B’ville, show your SPIRIT!!! Kelly Burdick, Debbie F ettlt Julie Anders an 24 Practices Michelle McCormick TAKING US UP Any day after school walk into the weight room or out to the soccer field or down to the track and you’ll see many of our classmates working up a sweat for the one thing everyone wants, to win. As Kelly Murdock put it, “No pain, no gain.” Along with winning comes hard work and determination, and you’ll find that at practice. Everyone agrees that practice makes perfect. As lacrosse player Tim Murphy put it, “Practices are definitely worth it because without practice you won’t get any better at the sport you play. The more you put into practice, the better you get.” Practicing is definitely an important part of any sport or group. Athletes like runners, wrestlers, and basketball players aren’t the only ones who practice. Drama, cheerleading, and band along with other groups and teams have their share of long, hard hours. As cheerleader Shannon Groff put it, “Practices make a team the best they can be.” Football player Rob Toth described practices for us. He says “Practice is a pain but you need to practice to see who can play what position. So when a game comes around you know who should be starting and you have a successful season.” In most cases the teams here at Baker practice after school. But some of our dedicated athletes hold their practices in the summer, on weekends, or even before school. The hockey and swim team are two examples of such teams. There is no doubt every team puts in their share of long training sessions. But when it comes down to it the thrill of winning is worth it to all of us who practice day after day, and we all benefit in the end.

This exploding volcano made the Marching Band's performance spine tingling during the competition held Saturday. 26 Homecoming Debbie Pettit Ola OWson LET’S GO CRAZY Three days prior to the homecoming ;game many students and community I residents doubted whether the i homecoming game would be played as ; planned. Why? Because the stadium lights were still not up. As the day I grew closer, rumors of a Saturday i afternoon game were heard. However, , on Friday night at Pelcher Stadium the ! brand new lights were ready for action. Action is what Pelcher Stadium was all about Friday night as the Bees took on the Oswego Bucs. Despite cloudy i skies and a cool temperature, the j game began as planned, at 7:30, and at halftime B’ville was trailing 7-0. The homecoming queen candidates, nominated by fall sports and clubs, ' entered the field with their escorts. Margaret Stevens was awarded homecoming queen, Valerie Prysiazniuk was voted princess, Vivian Prysiazniuk took the dutchess title and freshman Karen Hebblethwaite was chosen countess. Although the rain started to fall, the marching band performed their entire field show and kept the crowd’s minds off the uncooperative weather. As the third quarter began, the stands resembled a sea of umbrellas rooting their team to victory. The Bees scored two short run touchdowns to pull ahead 14-7. The final sting to the Bucs was a trick play by the Bees to end the game 21-7. On to the homecoming dance to celebrate the victory. Some of the highlights of the dance included the “twist” dance contest and enormous chorus line. The night was definitely one to remember. The next big event was the marching band competition held at Pelcher Stadium, Saturday night. A crowd of 6,000 attended the show. The well rehearsed performances made the show a huge success. The final homecoming event held on a rainy Sunday, was the annual powderpuff football game. The seniors once again defeated the juniors 6-0. The entire weekend demonstrated the great spirit of B’ville. Sue Stanley Diane Olejarz Getting rowdy at the Homecoming game, wearing red and white, and with painted faces are W. Earle, D. Hutton, C.

Homecoming 27 GIVE TAKE One of the advantages of attending Baker High School is having the opportunity to meet many interesting people. Along with high school comes high school sweethearts. Sweethearts play an important role in the social lives of the students. They go to dances, football games, movies, and parties. Some couples like to go out with a group of people while others take time out to spend with each other. An important benefit is that it teaches people how to care for one another. Sue Horton, a senior, says “With every relationship comes added responsibility and maturity. I believe couples benefit from having someone to share problems, and talk with, and they have each other to look forward to. After school Is over, Andy Bender and Suzette Allen stay after for a few minutes together. Also a senior, Claudine Pompo says, “I think a boyfriend—girlfriend relationship is super, but only if they get along really well. They can add a lot of fun and memorable times into each other’s high school lives and may even continue into their adult lives.” Besides the boyfriend girfriend view of couples, there are many girls and guys who are just very close friends. They can confide in each other for help with any problems that they may have. Some prefer this type of relationship since it is not as serious. No matter which you seek, romance or friendship, boys and girls can receive valuable experience in dealing with other people and their feelings by having these sort of relationships during their high school years.

Pam Bennett Between classes, Lee Byrne and Lisa Evans can be found near the lockers next to the photo room. While in study-hall, Ted Jorgensen and Barb Holt take a minute from talking to each other to pose for a picture. TAKE A LOOK “Preppie, “punk,” “hippie,” “Jock”—there are an abundance of ways to describe the style of dress seen nowadays. It seems that the only rule to follow is “do your own thing.” For some, this means sophistication at its height. Others prefer the more casual look. No matter which category applies, everyone is in some way affected by the fads and fashions of our time. Fashion to some is an individual “style” one person has, while a fad is more of a trend that the majority follows. Senior Kirsten Rossler defines fashion as, “The way you present your individuality through the clothes you wear.” And though everyone was free to adopt their favorite mode of dressing, there were obvious fads present this year. We saw a sort of “50’s” revival as cropped pants, over-sized shirts and sweaters, and flats were worn by most everyone. The “bob” haircut was a favorite of many girls, and short hair was by no means limited to the guys, since girls now opt for the more Sporting parachute pants and wide striped shirt is Jeff Doyle, while Jeff McLaughlin and Pat Solomon are wearing docksides and ties. The style vocabulary for today is bright and bold, and Carrie Garden spells it out loud and clear. carefree styles. Speaking of the guys, they were definitely more dressed up this year, with ties and sweaters being not just for special occasions, but for everyday wear as well. Along with large patterns and jewelry, bright, bold colors were constantly seen. Whether on sneakers, accessories, or blouses, these new daring shades certainly made one stand out in a crowd, and many times people found themselves looking twice at what others were wearing. Even jeans took on a new look with a numerous amount of pockets in unusual places, or none at all. Varying types of denim were used to create totally different effects either “coming” or “going.” Krisha Rydelek, a senior at Baker, comments about fashion in our school in this way, “It’s interesting to see different styles of clothing that each person wears. It’s nice to see a variety.” And during the 1984-85 school year, we certainly did. Marta Grutka 30 Fads and Fashions ■ ■; i-'v; ...

Clubs offer everyone a chance to get involved and enjoy themselves. Clubs for some make school more worthwhile. Each club has its own purpose. A new club founded this year is S.A.D.D., an anti-drinking-and-driving group. It was founded, according to Mr. Ambrose, “By a common concern among students, teachers, and parents about the drinking and driving ques- tion.” Some clubs concentrate on participating in an interest shared by all of the members, while at the same time obtaining a “reward” for all of the effort that they’ve put forth. The Future Artists, for example, travel to New York City at the end of each year in order to visit museums and ex- pand their knowledge of art. The Student Council is a club which sponsors school events such as dances. Key Club, on the other hand, works for the good of the community and international peace. Students join clubs to meet new friends, learn about something that they aren’t able to take in school, or gain leadership experience. At the same time, they are becoming a well- rounded person sought after by col- leges, and have an advantage when it’s time to apply. By joining one of the several clubs in existence you can double your knowl- edge and the number of good times you’ll have during high school. Marta Grutka This student is caught in front of the Drama Club refreshment stand at the Halloween Dance. The dance was put on by Key Club. Students enjoyed a rock concert by Free Fare, a group from Florida. The concert was sponsored by Student Council.

These Aquanotes members just like to use more than their pretty faces while performing. LUa Moltrop shields herself from the inundation predicted in “It’s Raining Men,” a number she and other corps members performed during the season. Mr Ponzo Julie Anderson Aquanotes team members are: Stacey Daniels, Barb Getman, Mindy Mcleroy, Kirstin Kraft; Mary Ann Ullery, Mandy Briggs, Lara Morrison, Lynn Hennessey, Amy Lampl, Dawn Brotherton, Kelly Murdock; Lisa Wilson, Missy Chase, Suzanna Lease, Amanda Schrempf, Kelly O Donnell, Andrea Lockwood, Maureen Patak, Margaret Stevens, Linda Serafini, Janet Argersinger and Sally Cummings. Missing are Sue Foster, Julie Adsit, Kathy Hebblethwaite. KEEP IN “Ladies Night,” the theme of last years Aquanote’s show was a thrill to all who attended. The brilliant lighting, costumes, and music all contributed to the great success of the performance. The 1984 Aquanotes club, led by presidents Janet Argersingen and Salty Cummings, was unique in that it was the first all-girls production in years. The activity is very unique in that two-thirds is student directed and produced, teaching members a great deal of responsibility for their routines. Miss Costich, the club advisor, feels that, “Because the group was smaller in ’84, it was tighter-knit and therefore everyone worked harder.” The highlights of the show included the numbers: I Enjoy Being A Girl,” “What a Feeling,” “PYT,” “Manhunt,” and “Country Girl.” Aquanotes member Linda Serafini sums up her experiences in the organization: “Aquanotes is really fun, but it’s a lot of hard work. It can get to be really frustrating when you practice the same stunt time after time until you get it right. But it all pays off during show night when you can show everyone what you can do.” Susan Stanley Whether you’re “Rockette” material or not, if you enjoy dancing, the Dance LINE Corps might just be the club for you. A part of the marching band program, the group starts practice after the Fall band season, and continues through April. Coached by Debbie Ponzo, this group of sixteen girls performs at a variety of events, but this year will concentrate on attending competitions throughout the state. When the group was formed for the first time last year, competing was a long-range goal. But the hard work and effort put forth by this year’s group got them on the road early. Performing to such songs as “It’s Raining Men” by the Weather Girls, the corps works mainly on jazz dancing, which provides girls with an excellent opportunity to get in shape, develop poise and confidence, while at the same time have a lot of fun. Captain Marta Grutka and co- captain Missie Dagel are back from last year’s squad, but this year interest in the group brought many young new faces out to dance. The group would like to build itself up even more, and Mrs. Ponzo would eventually like to see, “one unit for both the fall and winter season.” Marta Grutka Dance Corps members are: Heidi Herbert, Kathy Heltman, Donna Bester, Malene Rydhard, Charesa Lee, Michelle Tuso, Karen Fryer, Gwen Klein, Stephanie Ensby, Lisa Moltrop, Jodie Stratton, Sue Nuss, Co-Captain Missie Daigle, Captain Marta Grutka. Missing are: Erin O’Brien and Jackie Jones. Danceline 35 ON THE AIR For 11 years, Mr. Jcnner has been the advisor for the radio station WBXL. “The station is student-run, and is headed by Tim Collins, the General Manager.” He says, “I am supposed to make sure that everything is running smoothly, and to try to solve problems around the station. As a Music Director, I try to keep it as current as possible with our format.” Other officers of WBXL are Sports Directors, Kelly Reinsmith and John LaRocca; and Special Program Director is Kim LaPoint. Her title implies that she only works on special programs, but actually, she is one of the cornerstones of the station. This year WBXL is the best it has ever been. After receiving a large sum of money from the school system, Mr. Jenner proceeded to buy an entire new studio of state of the art equipment. It’s signal and sound are now comparable with any other radio station. Also, this year the staff is the biggest the station has ever had. Because of the improvements on the station and the enthusiasm of the students involved, WBXL-Stereo 91 is the best it has ever been. Diane Olejau The A.V. club might not be one of the well-known clubs, but it plays a very important role in Baker. The club meets in the A.V. room every third Tuesday. The major activities of the club occur every day. The purpose of the A.V. club is to allow members to learn about the operation and care of the various forms of audio visual equipment. The president is Mike Mabie and vice president is Rick Curtis. They are continually delivering, setting up, operating, and repairing equipment. This is an important service to all teachers and students. More than 1,300 hours of volunteer service are provided by the A.V. club. Don Allen says Using the equipment is exciting.” Lisa Ellis says, “It gives us a chance to meet the teachers.” As you can see, although the A.V. club is not well-known it is a very important part of our school. The students that are a part of this club work very hard and try to accommodate the needs of everyone. Now that you know more about what the A.V. club does 1 am sure you will agree it is a very important club.

It gives students the opportunity to learn theater performance on stage, back stage, and from the point of view of the audience. They also do radio performance. Officers are: president, Jenny Gibbs; secretary, Jana Vanderveer; treasurer, Tara Cardinal; and program director Kim Mosher. So far, the group has sold refreshments at the Halloween dance and sold candy. More fundraisers will be organized in order to earn money for theater tickets. They also plan to attend the drama festival in Oswego. Juli Jaquith enjoys Drama Club because, “It is very interesting. While learning how to do improvisations, radio plays and make up, you meet new people.” Drama Club is fun for those who have at least a little interest in theater. It covers all aspects. Luanne Brown A LEG This year, the music department put on “Oliver.” It took place on February 8, 9 and 10. “Oliver” is the story of a little orphan boy who finally discovers his real family. The show includes many elementary and junior high students, playing the parts of kids. However, high school students play the lead roles, excluding that of Oliver. Cathy McIntosh, who plays Mrs. Sowerberry says, “It’s a lot of work with many rehearsals. It’s a good experience. I think it’s more professional than junior high musicals. It’s a lot of fun.” Andy Swartz is Mr. Bumble in the show. “Working with other cast members and Mrs. Jacobe and Miss Rowe has really been an experience of a lifetime.” With all the dedicated people behind it, “Oliver” was a spectacular show.

KEY ‘N’ SKI After several years of being a small club, this year’s Key Club recruited many new active members, and more than doubled its size from last year. The Key Club’s purpose is to help other people both internationally and locally. It is affiliated with the Kiwanas Club, and is recognized as a community organization. It sponsors a child in Honduras, visits homes of the elderly, and holds dances and flower sales at school. The officers that helped to make this year’s club one of the best ever are: Laurie Norton, president; Michele Hickman, vice-president; Becky Jones, secretary; and Marta Grutka, treasurer. Marla Crutfca For many years, Baker High students have enjoyed the pleasure of ski-club. On Tuesdays, three busloads of anxious skiers take off to tackle the slopes at Labrador Mountain, There are three runs which the skiers can take. Ptarmigan, Badger, and Cutthroat, which take lots of concentration and hours of practice to master. There are about 200 ski-club members at Baker High. It is the largest of all clubs at Baker. Ski-club gives students time to relax, and have a good time. It’s almost impossible not to have fun. Ski-club is a time to be with your friends and enjoy yourself.

A new organization in the school is S.A.D.D. (students against drunk driving). The organization began last year in Baker as a group of students who are concerned about the problem of drinking and driving. This year S.A.D.D. has expanded from group status to a chapter of the National S.A.D.D. organization. S.A.D.D. plans activities in our school to make students and parents more aware of the dangers of drinking and driving, and to help prevent any injuries from occuring in our community. Last year, the S.A.D.D. chapter had an assembly and mailed home a “Contract for Life” to every family. S.A.D.D. is planning many activities this year including movies and speakers to address the DW1 theme that “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk.” S.A.D.D. feels this is important, since so many people are affected each day by accidents caused by drunk drivers. Kelly Burdick ORCHESTRA Twice a week, the string ensemble practices on the stage during fourth period. Under the direction of Joseph Brin, the ensemble works on perfecting musical arrangements which they perform at school concerts. But there’s much more than this. Consisting of violin, viola, cello and string bass players, the group combines once each year with band members making an orchestral group that accompanies the chorus for the Master Works concert. In recent years, some difficult works of Vivaldi and Schubert have been performed. Members of the string ensemble also participate in the All-District Orchestra which puts on a concert in the spring. All-County and NYSSMA festivals provide serious players with a challenge. This year, students participated in the pit orchestra for the musical, “Oliver.” As is evident, the string program is growing and participates in much more than most people realize. We’re happy to give them the recognition they deserve. Scott Major Scott Major At a S.A.D.D. meeting, in the Guidance Confer- ence Room, Mr. Ambrose and Marie Perechino listen attentively to what their members have to say.

ADVERTISING EDITOR Michelle McCormick INDEX EDITOR Luanne Brown Thanks to everyone who contributed their time and effort to the Lyre. Although it is not possible to list everyone involved, we have tried to acknowledge work done by adding credits. “DOUBLE 1985. A whole new year and a whole new Lyre. Double Take. A new theme intended to cover the latest happenings around us. The renovations made this year were a big addition that required a “double take” on the first day of school. The 1985 Lyre staff covered the renovations as well as the numerous other activities that occur everyday. This was the first year the members were given a class period to hold their meetings. With the exception of four members, the entire staff was up for a new experience. Luanne Brown was on the staff last year, and three other members, Julie Anderson, Tricia Davis, and Michelle McCormick, attended a workshop in August. Sponsored by 1CP, the workshop taught the fundamentals of a yearbook, and the students were then able to teach the staff what they had learned. The entire staff of 15 members learned to function as a group in order to complete assignments and meet the numerous deadlines. Together they worked with advertisements, copy sheets, character counts, cameras, film, layouts, tri-copies, typewriters, and even “Mr. Pica” himself to make this Lyre the very best it could be. To any non-member it may be hard to realize the long hours and hard work that go into a yearbook. But the members dedicated their time and the result is great. TAKE” On June 7, 1984, thirty-one i members were inducted into the National Honor Society. As last year’s members graduated, the 1985 members continued the legacy of the Donald W. Coates chapter. The selection of the members was baser upon their cumulative grade point average, school activities, and teacher recommendations. The first meeting of the new Honor Society was held shortly after the induction ceremony. Advisor Mr. Keenan, explained the purpose of Honor Society and conducted the election of new officers. Diana Liptak, who was elected President, now leads the meetings with help from Clint Church, Vice-President; Secretary; and John Winegard, Treasurer. The officers brought forth many activities that were decided upon by the members. Among other things, the members tutored other students, held a car wash, and provided a concession stand for the ballet performance sponsored by Student Council. identifying a person in a school of 1,500 students often very hard.

Although there are several courses offered that deal with computers, Mr. Scott started the computer club three years ago to offer additional information that is not taught in the school curriculum. Monday afternoons are spent working on the various computers. The members do not only solve problems with the computers, they also practice for the American Computer Science League. There are four competitions during the year in which the members participate. The ACSL contest consists of three separate rounds dealing with problems and programs. The first two rounds present the participants with problems that deal with information such as Boolean Algebra, Recursive Functions, and Computer Number Systems. While each of these rounds have a fifteen minute time allotment, the third round takes forty-five minutes of computer time as well as a great deal of preparation time. The object of the third round is to devise a programming solution for the given problem. As can be seen, the computer club keeps very busy sharpening their skills and competing in contests throughout the year. Under the direction of Mr. Cooper the math club holds its weekly meetings every Tuesday in room 104. To prepare them for their competitions, Mr. Cooper helps the members tackle difficult problems that are similar to those on the tests. Though small in numbers, the Math Club is very active. From November through March the members take part in County League Competitions, once a month, from October through April. The timed exams are given in Mr. Cooper’s room where the members compete against themselves and one another. During the thirty minute time unit, the participants try their hardest to decipher six mind bending problems. They must remember what they are learning in math this year, and often have to reach into their pasts to remember what they learned in the previous years. This is necessary because the problems require a profuse amount of knowledge and skill in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus in order to be solved. With all that work involved it’s no wonder the Math Club is so busy!! Keep on the look out for our own math whizzes of the future! Julie Anderson Computer hackers Doug Markert and David Young run their programs while Mike Beaver tires to learn something new from them. Computer Club members can use the computers found in the library on their free time. It is of the necessary to check the written program when debugging the program, as John Winegard does here. A known computer expert, Mr. Scott, also advises the Computer Club members on how to solve problems and run programs on the comput- ers.

Scott Major Sue Stanley LITERARY KIND Every Tuesday afternoon in room 207, the Journalism Club can be found receiving their weekly assignments from editor, Jude Rheome. In the weekly Messenger, the Baker High School journalism club publishes their own page. The Balderdash and Ballyhoo keeps students and residents informed on school and community events. Some of the regular features found on the student page include: Faculty Frame, Senior Spotlight, Student Reactions, Player Profile, and Musician’s Measure. According to club advisor Miss Rowe, “The emphasis this year is on training members to use journalistic methods in reporting and writing.” Member Renee Reiser feels that “Journalism Club has been a good experience for me in learning how a paper is run.” Interviewing, getting pictures, proofreading, are all part of the hard but rewarding job of the club. The primary function of the Junior Craftsman Club is to coordinate activities with the New Horizon Magazine. The members make up the magazine staff. The students meet as necessary with their advisor, Mr. Decker, in the print shop to work on the magazine. The New Horizons Magazine Publication is a creative arts magazine. Entries are taken during the winter months and the publication is distributed in April. This year, Jeffery Foucart won 25 dollars for his cover entry. The magazine has won several awards and has only been in publication for three years. Although not among the largest clubs, the Junior Craftsmen’s Club is an important part of our school community.

The Student Council plays a major role in planning and carrying out these and many other events which occur at school. According to president, Andrea Prysizniuk, the purpose of the group is to provide representation of students, allow a means to express opinions, and promote school spirit in the student body. The organization, with advisor Ms. Luther, meets in the large group room every other Wednesday. The increase of scheduled meetings was provided to improve communication of ideas and events and to get more students to participate in the council. To complete the ’84-’85 school year, the council will organize the annual Moving Up Day and award scholarships at graduation. Being a member of this elite group requires dedication, time, and a lot of responsibility. Susan Stanley THE MEMBERS OF STUDENT COUNCIL. The Sculpture Club is a new addition to the extra-curricular activities. Mr. Miller, who teaches sculpture class, is the advisor to this new club. Each member purchased a sculpture club shirt in the beginning of the year to promote their activities. The most exciting event of the year was the award received by Rich Brown for his sculpture entitled, Transmigration. Although the MONY scholastic contest was competitive Rich’s sculpture was chosen and received a cash prize of $250! Not only was Rich’s story covered in area newspapers, it was displayed at the Everson during February and March. As the sculpture club grows in number, it is sure to turn out many fine sculptors.

The club’s purpose is, in the words of Mr. Schermerhorn, advisor, “to extend cultural awareness of the cultures of the languages taught...” This is the first year that the Foreign Language Club is operating under a constitution. It was rectified October 30, 1984. The club tries to incorporate as much culture into meetings as possible. For their Christmas party, they sang Christmas carols in different languages. Our foreign exchange students put on presentations about their countries. They had slide shows and answered questions. On activity day, they sponsored representatives from Youth for Understanding and Rotary. Officers include president, Jennifer Harper; Vice-president, Luanne Brown; secretary, Natalie Mordwinkin; treasurer, Diana Liptak; student council representative, Amy Sharpe. Learning a language is fun, but discovering the way people live, their customs and such, makes it all the more interesting. Luanne Brown Do you have an interest in art? Then you should be a member of the Future Artist’s Club. During meetings, presidents Kirsten Rossler and Rich Brown go over business. Secretary Kim Mosher keeps track of attendance and minutes while Stacey Cross takes care of the monitary situation as treasurer. Meetings also provide time to work on class projects and individual work. Miss Chester, the club’s advisor, is always on hand to help. Each year, the club goes to New York City. They visit museums like the Metropolitan and the Gugenheim and check out the iittle galleries in SOHO. “It’s a great opportunity to be able to go to New York and see the work done by great artists, says Bryan Cross. To raise money for the trip, the group has sold calendars, candy and wrapping paper, and sponsored movies. Whether you’re an excellent artist or you just like to sketch, Future Artist’s Club is the place for you.

NAME THAT TUNE Julie Anderson 54 Music Julie Anderson Julie Anderson If you want a good background and education in the area of jazz, the Jazz Rock Enssemble is for you. Directed by Mrs. Jacobe, they practice every Monday, Thursday, and Friday after school. This year’s group needed to raise $3500 for a trip to Hartford, Connecticut. They were invited to the Music Educators’ National Conference in the Eastern Division in April. Holding catalog, cookie, and M M sales, along with cleaning Anheuser- Busch contributed to the fund. Besides Hartford, they will play in a Jazz Rock concert here in May and at several competitions and festivals throughout the year. This group is now well-known in New York State as they have recently recorded their first album available here at school. Outstanding musicianship citation awards have been given to Steve Neff, David DeSiro, and Becky Jones at state competitions. Also, Scott Hamilton and Andy Swartz were selected to sing in the 1984 All- State Chorus, the highest honor available in the state. Steve Neff sees the Jazz Rock Ensemble as “a good experience for me and others because it gives us a chance to play jazz and listen to it.” Michelle McCormick If you are a music student and have some spare time on Mondays between 3:00 and 5:00 in the afternoon, you could join the approximately twenty students who are already involved in the Baker High Stage Band. This group’s range of musical performances include fusion, blues, swing, and ballads. They will play at the state competition in February and their traditional spring concert. This year Steve Neff was elected to play his saxophone in the All-County Stage Band. Cindy Taft is an enthusiastic member because, as she says, It helps people to get a wider range of taste in music.” Michelle McCormick One of the students who received outstanding musicianship citation awards was Dave Desiro. He is the drummer for the Jazz Rock Ensemble. Not only is Laura Gibbins a vocalist in the En- semble, but she is also one of the pianist for the school’s chorus.

Stage Band 55 TAKE ACTION As children, we love to run, jump, and play. Playing games outdoors with our friends is at this time a natural part of life. Now that we are in high school, our way of “playing is to be a part of a sports’ team. Many students choose to be active in sports throughout the year. It proves to be a good way to have fun, meet new friends, and keep in great shape. With the new “health craze” seen this year, students have been more concerned about their bodies than ever before. Both boys and girls participate in the numerous sports offered at school throughout the year. Before the beginning of the school year, the soccer, gymnastics, football, tennis and cross-country seasons commence. The Marching Band also starts practicing now in order to prepare to perform at football games. If they don’t ski, many students go out for the basketball, volleyball and indoor track teams. There seems to be some sort of way to run throughout the year, and spring marks the beginning of spring track. Other sports which run all-year round are swimming and cheerleading, which has been considered a sport for two years now. Lacrosse, baseball and softball are three other sports . . . So, join a sport and be a kid again! Marla Gruika At the start of an exciting game, Bee’s Steve Miller goes lor the jump ball against one of the Ludden’s players.

Cheerleading has been a sport for the second year now, and requires much more time and energy than ever before. This year’s cheerleaders had a great start by attending a four day cheerleading camp in Cortland. By going to camp, the girls learned many new cheers and spirit ideas. With this head start, the girls began their best year ever. From camp on, the cheerleaders have been hard at work. They have planned many activities and filled the school and locker room with spirit posters, to get the guys and students excited for the games. Pep rallies and homecoming were all organized by the cheerleaders. With an even extra effort, the girls kept up the tradition of decorating the players’ houses the night before the homecoming game, to get them psyched for the big event. Also, buying candy isn’t a rarity for the cheerleaders, for they buy the players candy every game. The guys appreciate this, and it gets them in a good mood for the game. Though spirit is a large part of a cheerleader’s job. it also takes a lot of hard work and practices. The cheerleaders have worked hard on cheers and routines to perform for the school, and competition. Both the wrestling and basketball squads attended competition in Oriskany, with the basketball cheerleaders winning first place in to division. The cheerleaders will continue to learn and improve new techniques, with their spirit, leadership and athlete abilities. As you can see, cheerleading has changed a great deal in the past lew years.

According to Coach Foster, “There have been many laughs, a few tears, and lots of hard work.” The team underwent 53 practices, 12 races, and one trip to New York. During that time, each member of the team completed 405 miles!! The team ended the season with a final record of 3-5. They placed 6th in the Iroquois Division. Mike Johnson was selected to the first all league. The girl’s varsity cross country team finished their 1984 season with a perfect dual meet record of 7-0 to win the OHSL North Championship and extend the team’s 10 year record to 89-1. To highlight the season, the Bees won the Eastern State’s Championships held at VanCortland Park in N.Y.C. At the conclusion of the season, the Lady Bees were ranked 3 in New York State.

MARCHING BAND WINTER GUARD DOUBLE DRILL 64 Marching Band T««« Bambury Playing at the Carrier Dome during football. Concentrating intensely. M‘c the marching band played spicy music to enter- her cue to play in the band tain the crowd. Carrier Dome. “Fantasia,” the theme of the 1984 Baldwinsville Marching Band show, provided excellent and exciting entertainment at this year’s football half times and marching band shows. The smoke-filled volcano, new colorguard uniforms, and well rehearsed music, all contributed to the sensational 1984 production. The band started their season on an admirable note over the summer when they were awarded the President’s Cup for their performance at the State Fair. For the first time, the Bees hosted a field band competition under the new lights at Pelcher. The band received their highest score 80.00 out of a possible 100, on the night of championships held at the Carrier Dome. Through a candy bar sale and the annual coupon book sale, the T.E.M.P.O. organization and band members raised the necessary funds to compete throughout the season. Marching band requires dedication, cooperation, and a great deal of patience. The long hours of marching, Playing, getting that colorguard routine to perfection, all contribute to the final product. As Cindy Doran puts it, Marching band takes up a lot of your bme, but it’s worth it. When you’re out on the field and you hear the applause, it makes you tingle all over. It’s a great feeling and I’m proud to be part of the marching band.” Colorguard members stay in practice through the winter guard organization. Banners, sabers, and rifles perform to taped music on a gym floor at various competitions held on Saturday nights. Winter guard allows colorguards to have the “splotlight” as they show off their precision, flashy outfits, and interesting music, for the crowd. The performing of their shows gives marching band and winter guard members confidence, a sense of accomplishment, and teaches them the importance of team work. During “Socerer’s Apprentice,” the band members blow their horns while the guard members feel the rhythm and interpret the sound.

This was to win a championship and return to the Carrier Dome Playoffs. With a young team, some thought that this goal wouldn’t be accomplished. The B’ville team proved them wrong. The rapid development of the young players, and the hard work of the en- • tire team enabled the Bees to become a much better team than the oppo- : nents thought, with a record of 6-1 in the Metro-League, B’ville’s biggest thrill of the season was beating Watertown 37-20. The football team won the co- championship and returned to the Carrier Dome for the Section Three Class A playoffs. Finally, all of the hard work paid off, and the goal be- came reality. Though the loss to Utica- Notre Dame in the Dome was disappointing, the team was pleased with its overall performance. Outstanding play was seen during the season by the entire team, includ- ing team captains Mike Karsonovich, and MVP Mark Houghtaling. All- league 1st team members for the Bees were seniors: Mark Houghtaling, halfback; Mike Karsonovich, defen- sive end; and Bruce Warwick, punt- er. All-league 2nd team members were: Scott Wojnovich, linebacker; Art Bittel, tackle; Todd Kasmer, safety; Jeff McCullar, halfback; Bruce Warwick, kicker; and Mike Karsonovich, tight end. Junior varsity football had an excep- tional season also, being the Metro- League tri-champions with JD and Cortland. Most outstanding player Matt Virginia scored 110 points and rushed for 1,325 yards, which set two new JV records. Altogether it was an exciting season for the Bees with the new lights in Pelcher Stadium, a Metro-League co- championship, and a second trip to the Carrier Dome Playoffs. All the hard work and dedication of the players, and the addition of two new coaches enabled Baldwinsville to achieve its first football championship in ten years.

Johns watch the ball. The “Lady Bees” Varsity Soccer Team took the challenge of a rough rebuilding year to end the season with pretty favorable results. Coach Jerri Costich describes the situation this way, “With only three returning starters from last year we had our work cut out for us. Early season saw us getting beaten easily by top teams. Hard work, a new offense, and tremendous growth in ability and skills brought us up to a level where we could defeat top teams, as seen by the many victories in our later season.” Led by captains Lisa Swete and Heidi Church, the team put forth a lot of hard work and leadership, which attributed to the team’s overall record. Along with this sense of spirit, much skill could be found out on the field. Senior Kathy Honan was named MVP and she and Barb Manville were named to the second team of the all-stars. Players who received honorable mention were: Dawn Keller. Heidi Church and Beth Greco. Many records were set this year, for both teams and individual efforts. Dawn Keller scored 13 goals during the season to break the record of 9, which had been the most to be scored for one season. For the most goals in one game, Heidi Church holds the record with five. During the game against Corcoran the team set a new record for the most goals in one game with seven. The outlook is bright for next year’s team with many talented young faces. Junior Erin Mulvaney was the most improved player, and freshman Beth Greco was the Rookie of the Year this year. If the tremendous improvement shown overall this year is any indication of what's to come, the 1985 team should be outstanding. Let’s go and cheer them on!

Although their record wasn’t what they’d hoped it would be, the boy’s varsity soccer team put in a good, hard season’s worth of work. Team Captain Ken Mincar comments on their 5-11-2 finish in this way, “The losses we experienced were not due to lack of team talent. The scores of those games were very close, and we lost our chance at many victories only after having put in our best efforts.” The other team captains were seniors Bob Pelcher and Jeff Salanger. Outstanding team members received All-County recognition. Jeff Salanger was named to first team All- County, and junior Tim James made second team. Honorable mention was given to Ken Mincar, John Minnoe, Chris Weigelt, and Karl Meihofer. The team went through a re-building year this year, and expectations for next year’s Bees are high.

The work includes; difficult workouts both before and after school. Saturday mornings, along with weightlifting which is also included as part of the training. Swimming is the best exercise because it works the arms, legs and the lungs. Both the boys and girls had good seasons. The girls beat Liverpool for the first time. On the boys first meet a record was set by Finn Jensen in the 50 yard freestyle. The Girl’s Coach Mike Ferrell said: “A small, talented, and young group of swimmers served notice to the swimming community of an emerging swimming power. Of the eleven events, six new school records were established on our way to a 14-4 season record, and tie for second place in league competition. All of the hard work paid off in an exciting and every successful season.” While doing the breaststroke at practice, Doug Hickman breathes in some fresh air for the rest of the lap.

Major I TAKE “2” G.B. BALL One of the most fast-paced and exciting sports is basketball. Many people attend the boys’ basketball games, but fail to recognize the girls’ team. Even though their record didn’t show a winning season, both the varsity and junior varsity girls’ teams put a lot of effort into the games and practices. Next year the teams will try harder and hope to have a more successful season. The Varsity team had a new coach this year, Mr. Mallaro. After having been offered a job in Florida, Mr. Mallaro moved. Mary Huges, who has been coaching girls’ basketball for quite a few years took over for him and coached both of the teams single handedly. Varsity player Shelly House says, “Although this was his first time coaching us, Coach Mallaro worked with us very hard. Sometimes we joked around during practice, but he showed us that we could work and still have fun.’’ We wish next year’s team the best of luck and hope to see all of their practice pay off.

With a young team consisting of only four seniorss, Steve Miller, Gregg Pearson, Bob Pelcher and Tom Murphy, the Bees moved up a league to face the toughest teams in the area. While the competition was tough, every player gave his best effort to improve the team’s performance. Hungry for victory and striving to defeat, the Bee’s talents proved to be outstanding. Working to make a Kelly Burdick comeback became the hoopsters goal Steve Miller, in the process of setting the record of most points scored in seasons, was on top in the league lor scoring. J.V. proved to be full of talent this season also, beating some city league teams was a great accomplishment. Don Cahill and John Friedich led the junior hoopsters in scoring for the team. Though the results of most games were disappointing, the Bee’s gave il their all, and kept up the Bee spirit through the entire season.

TAKE IT TO THE ICE HOCKEY The Baldwinsville Hockey Team didn’t have their best year this year, winning two games, losing ten, with four more to go. A contributing factor might be that this is the youngest hockey team in Baldwinsville History. There are 8 sophomores, one Freshman and two eighth graders, with the rest of the team juniors and seniors. “Although the team is physically small, they’re tough and agressive skaters.” said assistant Coach Cady. “We also play in a very tough division against schools that have very strong hockey teams,” stated one of the players. This was a good year for awards and special recognition. Todd Kasmer was named to the All-Star Team in the tournament in Fulton. Captain Tony Pompo tied a record of five goals in a single game which was previously held by Kevin Sheehan. This year wasn’t their greatest, but next year, with more practice, the B’ville Bees will be back on top.

Hitting a ball over the net may look easy, but when you’re out there facing another team, setting the ball up for the spike is not as easy as you think. The main object in this game is to find a spot on the opponent’s side where they cannot make contact with the ball. If completed, this counts as one point. To win, a team must have a total of fifteen points, and be ahead by two. This year has been a tough one for the varsity team. They finally pulled off their first win against Central Square, after several frustrating defeats. As we look ahead, the future for the Lady Bees looks good. It’s going to be a tough season with a very tough varsity team. Pct« Johns During time out, Lisa Metzler and Katie Cahill discuss their next set up against West Genesee.

Besides the superior powers of the seniors, there are also the juniors, sophomores, and one freshman to put their share of points on the board. Along with the two fine, strong teams, there is also an outstanding coaching staff, both varsity and JV. Mr. Dillon has kept the JV team undefeated in past seasons, and builds them up in order to prepare for when they reach their varsity years. Mr. Dillon uses his own methods and skills to condition, train, and teach his teains what moves to make, and when to I make them.

The 1984 la- crosse team ended the season with five wins and thirteen losses. Eight of these losses were only by one point. The contributing factor to this turnout seems to have been the numerous in- juries suffered by team members. “I think it was a tough season because our team never played togeth- er much because of all of the injuries we had. This really hurt us a lot.” This comment was made by junior Bob Chapman. Honors received by team members were: first team All-County, seniors Bob Kuzdal and Kevin Wonovich; second team All-County, senior Mike Sheehan. Players who proved to be talented in 1984 and are returning for the 1985 team are: Mark Houghtaling, Jeff Salanger, Bob Chapman, Chris Weigelt, George Timmons, and John Minnoe. With this start, the team is looking forward to a season with more victories to show for their hard work and effort. Maria Grutka Chris Eckmann Before the game.

Led by senior Sandra Scibetta, the team achieved a record of eleven wins, three losses. One of the factors that attributed to the team’s winning record was that most of the girls were experienced players. Wendy Tubbert was voted the most improved player and Sandra Scibetta was the most valuable player. Two players who deserve special recognition are Karen Scibetta and Susan Carter. They came in second in our section and were the first players from Baker ever to go to a state tournament for tennis. 1984 saw the emergence of the girls’ junior varsity tennis team. In previous years a junior varsity had not existed, but due to the abundance of good players, one was formed. The players voted most valuable were Becky Besser and Carrie McFall who are eleventh and tenth graders, respectively. These two girls played together as doubles’ partners and earned a 3:3 record. Other outstanding players were Meg Millard and Heather Doran. Under the direction of Mr. Dill Kasmir, the boys varsity tennis team led a very successful season. Although previously coached by Mr. Dillon, the team was instructed by Mr. Kasmir for the first time last year. Almost all the boys were returning members from previous years. Graduated senior, Jeff Hill, and senior John Lopez were named the most valuable players during the 1984 season. Other members of the team included: Tom Curley, Dante Daley, Scott Gunnerman, Art Kenney, Rich Moses, Jim Tayler, Jim Tudman, and Mike Sica.

This is the first year that the golf team has competed since a three year layoff. As Mr. McKee, head coach of the boy’s golf team says, “I feel we did a great job coming back into the league and doing as well as we did.” Junior and team captain, Len Lasinsky, was given the doctor’s “O.K.” to play, and came through with a superior year. Lenny was named Most Valuable Player, and along with that, he was selected to represent Section Three in the N.Y.S. tournament held at Cornell. This year is the first year that the bowling team, known as the locals”, have competed in the OHSL County Bowling League in six years. Coached by Joel Bart, the locals’ record as of January 25th, 1985 was 3-3, with many more games to bowl. Kevin Vanduser and Jack Donahue, co-captains of the locals, are both having a superior year. Vanduser has also been ranked eighth out of the top ten bowlers in the OHSL County League.

Math and science students thrive on figuring out a difficult problem, or the challenge of a laboratory experiment. The successful completion of Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus courses prepare students for their future. Through Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, students obtain knowledge in these areas. Underclassmen English courses mainly deal with grammar, literature, and creative writing to prepare students for the Comprehensive English Regents. Seniors may choose from Drama, Public Speaking, Literature and Fantasy, Journalism, Creative Writing, and College Prep. Students learn about U.S. and world history through the stimulating Social Study courses available to them. Seniors have the option of taking Social Studies and may choose from: Canadian Studies, Psychology, Current Events, Street Law, and more. Art courses give our creative students a chance to develop their own special talents. Music, foreign language, Health, Home Economics, Business, Industrial Arts, Gym, and BOCES courses are all included in the academic curriculum.

Linda Scraflnl NEW CREATIONS Art in Baker is a very important part of the curriculum. Some students plan on art related careers, while oth- ers plan on many lifetime hobbies of their skills. Some of the art classes available are Studio in Art I and II, ce- ramics I and II, sculpture, painting, photography, drawing I, II, II. Students learn how to use 35 mm cameras, develop, and print black and white film in photography. Visual ele- ments, composition, and techniques are stressed. Our school hosts the Festival of Arts annually. All art students participate in filling the halls with great art work. Also many selected pieces are exhibit- ed for Mony Scholastics regional art Playing with ciay for ceramics brings back many childhood memories for Sean Kelly.

A: 996 I SEE WHAT’S HERE Although most students will graduate and remember their classes and teach- ers at Baker, many students will have memories of their days at Onondaga Madison BOCES in Lakeland. BOCES which stands for Board of Cooperative Education Services. BOCES gives students the chance to learn a specific skill, often giving them enough experience to find employment in their field of study. BOCES is an ex- cellent opportunity for students who choose not to go on to college after graduation. In addition, BOCES gives Baker students a change in environ- ment and a chance to meet students from other area schools. The great variety of courses available is another attractive feature of BOCES. Some of the courses include: business and of- fice, agriculture, electronics, childcare, cosmetology, mechanics, machine trades, nutrition, construction, and graphic arts. Morning BOCES student Ted Ward says, “BOCES is very educational. It . . educational.” Ted Ward gives students the chance to decide early what type of career they’d be interested in. It’s better to discover what you like now and become skilled at it, rather than ending up in a job you dislike.” BOCES is definitely the right choice for some juniors and sen- iors.

This year a new curriculum is in place in order to comply with New York State requirements. New courses offered this year are: Office Procedures, Machine Transcription, Personal Financial Management, and Business Dynamics. The Business department has also received new equipment this year. A word processor and printer, seven transcribers, ten desk-top calculators, along with thirty IBM Selectric typewriters have been added. Someone who is really taking full advantage of what we have to offer in business is Pat McCloskey, who says, “Personal Typing will be useful in college. I would also like to go into the business management field and in the future would like to take some other business courses.” Michelle McCormick 102 Business Michelle McCormick Hitting a wrong key cannot be avoided.

No matter what career you choose, communication with other people is essential. This is why so much emphasis is placed on good reading and writing skills and four years of English is required to graduate. English class is rewarding in many ways. As junior Jim Weichert says, “Without English I wouldn’t read very much and I would miss out on some of [n public speaking, a senior English class, stu- dents have to do balloon speeches. Here Steve DeTota, Dan Henderson. Gretchen Klein, and Tracy Garbutt give us their presentation. “I think being able to read and write is very important to succeed in life . .. ”—Angie Bush the great plays and novels.” Mr. Crotty and Mr. Hidy are two teachers who took the opportunity pre- sented by redistricting to move from Baker to Ray. Mr. Crotty feels this way about it, “I taught a senior English course ten years ago . . . and it was one of the best teaching experiences I’ve ever had. Now that I’m back in the high school enjoying an older student and a more personally satisfying curriculum, I know I made a wise choice in asking for a transfer.” Michelle McCormick In college prep, students work individually in fields such as vocabulary, grammar, and reading. Here students are getting ready to begin work. Peter Johns “DOUBLE TALK” Whether vous parlez Fran.cais; sprechen Deutsch, or habla Espanol, learning another language is a way to find out more about another culture, and may be useful in communicating with people from other countries. This is not to say that every person who takes a foreign language in school will use it every day of their life. The main objective of the foreign language de- partment is to use the language to practice comprehension and speaking; while at the same time develop an awareness of other people in the world. Students can take French, German, Spanish or Latin, and many take Diane Olejar; “We are becoming a closer, more independent world ...” several. Senior Sue Frusci takes all of the languages offered and has visited France. She finds learning languages easy and enjoys them. “In today’s society, we are becoming a closer, more interdependent world. It is impor- tant to be knowledgeable about the other countries around us.” In this year’s curriculum, more em- phasis is being placed on speaking. A new honors program is being estab- lished which will lead to an Advanced Placement course in Spanish. Spanish classes are also using the Wiecha Pro- gressive Reflex method of learning. The objective of this is to accomplish long term retention of the language. So, go ahead and broaden your hori- zons! Take a second language and do your own sort of “Double Talk.” Mart Grutka By writing and performing real life skiu, students earn how to speak the language more fluently.

These activities are in the areas of placement, information, counseling, and testing. Placement entails what courses you’re taking now, and in the future. Also, how those courses can help you In the future. There is a large amount of imformation that one can find in the Guidance Office. The Career Resource Center is particularly helpful to any senior who is interested in a college education. Counseling is another activity that takes place in these offices. Academic counseling is associated with problems within a certain class or acrivity. these problems are worked out with one’s guidance counselor. Student with per- sonal problems can be seen working them out with their counselor or the school psychologist Mr. Fox. The last area which to consider is testing. Such tests are RCT’s for English and math, and PSAT’s to prepare students for the college en- “They’ve helped me a lot.” — Michelle McCormick trance exam of SAT’s.

A: Average verbal 430 Average Math 492 110 Home Economics As times change the courses here also change. This year many courses related to Home Economics have been added. Human Development is a new and very interesting course. This course is designed to help students learn skills in managing their first home apartment. It also guides you in making important decisions, being successful in a career, and taking care of yourself, either as a part of a family or as an individual. Child development and personal management are also courses offered. The courses people think of when they hear Home Economics are Basic Foods, Meal Management, and Culture Through Foods. Candi Touron, a Meal Management student says. I’m glad 1 took this class, it taught me how to prepare sensible meals and how to use my time in the kitchen more efficiently. I learned a lot and had a good time preparing different meals.” The courses are taught by Mrs. Pratt and Ms. Connery. The goals for this particular elective are to teach skills for living and improving your quality of life. It also gives you the opportunity to apply skills learned in other courses. People may even decide to continue in this field after high school. John Adams states, “I’m in cooking prep class and I enjoy it because the women out number the guys 10 to 1, plus I get to eat a lot.” Andrea Lockwood In their 8th period Home Ec. class Pat O’Donnell and Jennifer McCullar take one of Miss Connery’s tests.

Of course these skills are taught, but other ideas are emphasized also. Quali- ties such as how to get along with peo- ple and the recognition of craftsmanship are just as important as the manual work done. The course taught here will give students an insight and understanding of the indus- try. The program is constantly changing to meet the needs of the field. It is felt that there is a need to update the ma- chinery due to the new “state of the art” equipment being produced. This year the Creative Publications course was formalized to a full-year credit, this group publishes the New Horizons magazine which exhibits work done by students in our school. Includ- ed are: stories, poems, artwork and photography. Major Certain awards are given in June to outstanding students in different areas. An example is the Printer of the Year Award in the Graphic Arts department. Graphic Arts department.

Linda Serafini Working diligently on an important paper, Nicole Elkema has found many books pertaining to her subject. 114 Library Teresa Bambury CHECK The library has something for every- one. Some use it occasionally, and oth- ers are there daily. There are many reasons people go. Brian Norris finds the Career Re- source Center to be very helpful. “The Career Resource Center is very well fashioned to help the college bound student. 1 have found many items on a wide variety of colleges, ranging in and out of state. It is very informative and helps all who need to know about col- leges.” IT OUT You can always find someone to help you in the library. If you can’t find a book or need help with the com- puters, one of the aides will gladly lend a hand. “I usually go for information for a report. There is always someone willing to help me. The librarians are great when it comes to finding something. They sometimes help you continue re- search or suggest other resources,” says Lisa Blake. Some students go to the library to meet friends or get away from studyhall. “I usually go to the library to read a magazine. Once in a while I’ll go if I have a paper due and need to check out a book.” says Heidi Church. The new renovated library provided for an expanded computer room. Stu- dents can be found there before home- room, during their studyhalls, in lunch, and after school. The library is a great place for stu- dents to meet and work.

In recent years, a reemphasis has been placed on the “Experimental...” Tricia Davis importance of math and science. Graduation requirements will be altered in that freshman next year will be re- quired to take at least two years of math and science before graduation. The varied math courses offered at Ba- ker include: Algebra, Geometry, Trigo- nometry, Pre-calculus, Calculus, Com- puter Math, and Business Math on different levels. Math is a very chal- lenging subject, coming easily to some, but requiring more effort by others. Whatever math students take, the satisfaction of figuring out last night’s homework and understanding what they did, usually gives them the pa- tience and desire to keep on learning. Earth science. Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Field Biology, are some of the science courses available to stu- dents at Baker. Science classes give students the opportunity to learn about nature and the complex world. Labs offer students the opportunity to actu- ally learn by doing, which often makes the course more interesting and meaningful.

Yet they do not fully understand what the origin, style, or technique used to make the music that they are listening to, is. By taking a course in music they would be sure to expand their knowl- edge. The music department’s main ob- jective is to provide a well-rounded education in music to students, as well as to develop an appreciation for all styles of music. There are many ways to become in- volved in music at school. For people who want to learn about the history and composition of music as well as write their own, Comprehensive Muscianship is offered, this course is taken by many students who plan to major in music in college, and has proven to give them an advantage. Students involved in these classes this year got the opportunity to use new computers to put their knowledge to work. A “sound chaser” was pur- chased. this is a keyboard connecting to the Apple 1! computer which allows students to compose and work on key- board skills. A keyboard “lab” with six key- boards was also added. These changes were made so that more emphasis could be placed on harmony skills and ear training. Some people prefer performing mu- sic to express themselves. Julie Adsit says this, “Music is an extension of myself, and a good way of releasing energy.” For such people, groups like the “Music is an extension of myself . —Julie Adsil Concert Choir, band, and orchestra give them the chance to perform and learn at the same time. Under the di- rection of Carol Jacobe the eighty member chorus performed with the Syracuse University Choral Union and the Syracuse Youth Orchestra this year. The Musical cast, All-District or- chestra, and Jazz-Rock Ensemble are other groups who perform fine music. Acquiring a knowledge of music can help make you a more cultured and better rounded person. And even if you’re not serious about music, taking a course can be enjoyable.

Gibson Music 119 Gym, a required course to graduate, provides a break from most classes where students have to remain practi- cally inactive behind desks. Gym is the chance to run around, put on comfort- able clothes, and have a good time with friends. In today’s exercise society, gym introduces a variety of physical activities, many of which re- main lifetime hobbies. Some of the choices students have include: swim- ming, tennis, archery, aerobics, weight lifting, and more. Senior Jude Rheome says, “I feel gym is a class which allows you to relieve your aca- demic stress.” Health class is taken by all students for one semester before graduation. Health is a field that every responsible citizen should have some background knowledge in, which is the main purpose of this course. “ .. . academic stress.” Jude Rheome Guest speakers often visit health classes to share their knowledge with students. Because physical growth and knowledge about our bodies is very es- sential, gym and health work hand in hand to create a doubly healthy atti- tude among our students.

WORD POWER Having proficient reading skills is beneficial in all courses and areas of life. The ability to comprehend what you have read will increase success in any class which involves receiving information from the written word. The new name of the reading program this year is Supplemental Reading and Writing. The main objective of the department is to provide additional help in reading and writing skills and to better prepare students to pass the Regents Competency Tests. An additional course added to the curriculum is the ESL class. ESL stands for English as a Second Language which was incorporated to help foreign speaking students gain the necessary concepts of the English language. The recent addition of computers in the two reading rooms were provided to help students improve comprehension, vocabulary, and reading rate. Susan Stanley This student is taking advantage of the new com- puters added to the reading department this year.

Scon Major 124 Social Studies Teresa Bambury PAST PRESENT Social Studies is one course required throughout most of a student’s high school years. Ninth grade Social Studies covers the continents of Asia and Africa. Tenth grade students study Europe; eleventh grade, American History. Seniors aren’t required to take a Social Studies course, but electives are offered. Missie Daigle feels that Social Studies should focus more on the present. “1 suppose it’s necessary to study about our history, but 1 think we should spend more time on current events. A lot of kids don’t know what is going on now and don’t care what went on then.” Ed Magilley puts it into his own | words, “Social Studies is great if you ! like old news. Research papers are the ' only really bad things.” Senior Candi Derby really enjoys Social Studies electives. “Taking a S.S elective is great because they’re only half a year. Street Law is great because you learn about your rights. Although many find Social Studies useless, it’s necessary. We learn from past errors and try to prevent their reoccurrence in hopes of a brighter future.

Resource There is a department at Baker which consists of programs that are designed to teach and help students to learn who have special learning disabilities. This is the special education department. Most of the students are taught in small classes with teachers who have been specially trained. The students can interact with the rest of the student body in gym and art classes and also during the lunch periods. The students work academically in small classes with usually no more than twelve students. The class usually has one teacher and one teacher’s assistant. Our school is happy and proud to be helping these students by giving them a special education. Debbie Pelt it They needed a break from all the work that they did. So they took the time to have a nice lunch. Sue Stanley Mrs. Horne, one of the special education teach- ers, helps one of her students with the day’s les- son.

Sound like a biology lecture on amoebas? Not exactly—PEOPLE. Each of us has special qualities which make us our own person. Our looks, talents and interests make up our personalities which determine our interaction with others. In school we came across hundreds of people, some of whom we’ll never meet, others who will become our closest friends. It is now that we start to gain a feeling of who and what we are in relationship to the enormous world we live in. Starting out as Freshmen and Sophomores, high school is an exciting, carefree time. We seem to have all of our lives ahead of us, and are in no hurry to grow up. During the junior year we go through some of the first stages in becoming young adults. Sixteenth birthdays, permit tests, SAT’s and difficult school work loads, all prepare us for life after high school. We consider going to college or work since we only have one year left. Then, the inevitable happens, and we are seniors. The time seems to fly by for most and drag for others. To help us through each year are teachers, staff and administration who, as we learn, are real people too. When we leave high school we will meet people who will be important in our lives. But we will never forget the special people who helped to develop the person we became during school. Maria Grutka With an adorable smile like the one he flashed us at a pep rally, Sophomore Dave Kassakatis should have no problem making friends.

The President is in charge of running the meetings and getting things organized. It is important for the President to have fresh ideas on fund raising and activities, so that many students will become interested and involved. This is one of Dan’s goals for this year since in the past the general attitude has been apathetic. Vice President Karen Burkhart basically does the same sort of things as the President, and helps him follow through with his ideas. Keeping the minutes and writing proposals is the job of the secretary, Renee Graudons. This year there are two senior Class Treasurers, Stella Ogata and Amy Sharpe. They keep track of all the money that the class has. Deposits and withdrawals are made by the treasurers also. This is just a brief summary of what the officers do. The officers’ goals this year is to boost the morale of the class. They are confident that with more support they could accomplish a lot. The major project of this year’s senior class is the trip to Florida in February. A project like this shows the amount of responsibility placed upon the class officers. The Class of ’85 thanks our elected officers for all the hard work that they have put forth to make this year a special one for us all.

Chrit Eckman “YOUR LAST DAY” Besides being “the best year of your life”, your senior year can bring you sadness also. It is when some things will happen for the last time in a persons life. These “lasts” are the cause of some of our best memories. Imagine entering Baker on the first day of your senior year. You know where all your classes are and walk confidently through the halls. You’ll never have another first day of school. You are pushed into the boy’s gym during activity period. It’s hot, crowded, noisy, and someone is stepping on your foot. You fight your way up the bleachers and squeeze in between your two best friends. Your here for your last pep rally led by Mr. Coleman. These are only two of the “lasts” experienced by a high school senior. Others are your last homeroom, school lunch, gym class, and school bus ride. Claudine Pompo thinks this way about “Our last year together as the Class of ’85.

Deadlines for tests and applications. Dates for college and financial aid nights held at Baker. There are also dates for such things as ordering your graduation announcements, and your cap and gown. Then there’s of course the research paper for Mrs. Gamage’s college prep, class. These dates and deadlines seem to be important to many seniors. When asked what he thought about all of these dates. Gregg Pearson said, “If you didn’t have any deadlines, everyone would procrastinate, and then nothing would ever get accomplished.” Seniors 135 136 Seniors Julie Anderson Kevin Loop is often seen hanging out in the art room perfecting his art skills.

Groups of students can be found talking or just fooling around at their favorite school hangout between classes or during lunch. A favorite hangout is by the school’s auditorium, seniors are always found clustered together here before the bell rings. When Mary Anne Cook was asked where she likes to go between classes she said, “Between classes I go by the auditorium to spend time with my friends. Before and after school students with special talents perfect their abilities in the music and art rooms, or just talk to others about the latest happenings. During lunch periods students go to some spot where they feel comfortable and can be with their friends. Some students escape outside, while most go to the cafeteria. After eating lunch there are students who like hanging out by the Coke machine. Senior Mike Nasiadka says, “After eating lunch 1 hang out near the Coke machine to cause trouble.” Finally the school’s most popular hangouts are the halls and lockers. When asked why Linda Piotrowicz hangs out in the halls she said, “To gossip with everyone.” Kelly Burdick Seniors 137 W ., MONEY MATTERS Earning money is no easy job, as any senior can tell you. Having a job may require multitudes of long and tiring hours. It is a double duty for these people to have a job and still get all of their homework in on time. David Piedmonte said this about working, “Working is really beneficial because of the people and the atmosphere. It can be hectic at times, when I have to work until midnight and then do my homework.” Many of them manage and are able to do very well in both of their duties. The most common places to find the 138 Seniors Peier John seniors at work are supermarkets and fast food restaurants. But there are other jobs that seniors here at Baker have, that require special qualifications. Lifeguarding, working in a hospital or office. Still, there are those certain seniors who do not like having a “normal” job and have odd jobs such as babysitting and lawn work. A job can even help you find out a little bit about yourself, what you are good at, and what areas you like or absolutely dislike. No matter what job you hold the skills that we build will be useful throughout our lives. Andrea Lockwood HIT THE ROAD Finally you’ve done it, you’ve gotten your driver’s permit and you’re going to learn to drive. Driving isn’t easy and patience is necessary on the parts of both driver and teacher. A step in learning to drive is finding a teacher. After a teacher is found it’s time to hit the streets. Driving is mostly practice and many trips to the store with Mom or Dad may be made. When asked where she drove when she first got her permit Amy Duger replied, “I drove mostly on back roads and around the schools.” The dreaded three hour course is another step in getting a license. “The three hour course important to learn safety tips and to learn about things that can happen on the road,” remarked Wendy Bullard. Your instructor will talk about the importance of seatbelts drinking and driving, and awareness on the road. The last step is to make an appointment for a road test. The nervousness mounts as the test date grows closer. Questions of will I pass or fail, can I parallel park, and do I know my hand signals enter the minds of many. Hopefully everything is clear when the examiner steps into the car. After about ten minutes you’re done and the verdict is in, and if you’re lucky, after all work you’ve done, you’ll pass with flying colors! Teresa Bambury Pam Bennett After a hard day of school Kim Kriesel and Robin Sollars seem to be excited at being able to go home.

But no matter how you procrastinate, sooner or later the day’s homework must be completed. Some students prefer to get their homework out of the way as soon as they get home. Many have to, before putting in hours at part-time jobs. Others relax, eat dinner, and then tackle the books. Homework reveals how much you really got out of the day’s lesson. Students choose a variety of locations to work on homework. Some study halls provide an excellent opportunity to work on assignments or review for tests and quizzes. The high school and public libraries are also popular places to study. Some students apply the “two heads are better than one” adage and work together on homework. Some last minute homework spots are: on the bus, homeroom, and the class before your assignment is due! Although students may often think of more exciting ways to spend their time, most accept the responsibility and realize the importance of doing homework. Susan Stanley Homework is done in a variety of places, lunch being one. Here are Rose Elia, Keith Hubbard, Jane Kerniski, and Joelle Catulli attempting it. Once in a blue moon, Chris Cramer, Dallas Metcalfe and Jay Baker can be caught in stu- dious moods. You are witnessing this rare occa- sion.

Diane OI i|arz SENIORS ONLY ELECTIVES Hard work is an important part of every student’s school day. Seniors, however, get to choose what kind of English and Social Studies they want to take. These are senior electives. Senior electives range from Drama to Street Law; College Prep, Literature Of Fantasy, Psychology, and more. Lynn Glover takes Canadian Studies. “In Canadian Studies we learn about the people and customs of Canada. I’ve learned that Canada depends a lot on America. Most of the industries in Canada are American owned and American people are a big influence on the Canadians. Canadians are desperately searching for their own identity but it is very difficult because of the various nationalities in Canada.” Every senior is required to take two English electives. Mike Haskins takes Creative Writing. “It’s an unusual class, but I have learned many useful things, unlike most of my classes.” Art Emm is a Public Speaking student. “Public Speaking is a good class if you have trouble speaking in front of people. This class teaches you things you might need when you finish school and enter the real world. I have learned many things I will need in my future years.” Whatever their interest, every senior can find an English and Social Studies elective to suit their needs.

Well here’s the results seniors: Mr. Magnarelli received the majority of senior votes and is once again the class of ’85’s favorite teacher. O.K. seniors, when we asked for favorite class we didn’t mean lunch. But according to the ballots, lunch, is considered the favorite class by the majority of seniors. Although Guiding Light gave General Hospital a run for their money, GH watchers will be happy to learn that General Hospital received the most favorite soap opera title. Who ya gonna vote for? Ghostbusters! This was obviously the response of many seniors, as Ghostbusters was the favorite movie according to our poll. As for T.V. shows, Thursday night’s Cheers was selected by the seniors. We were hoping for something more original, but pizza continues to be among teen’s favorite foods, and our seniors put it at the top. Although quite a variety of groups were named as favorites, Van Halen came up 1. Van Halen’s Hot for Teacher video also received the majority of votes. Some other favorites include: mall—PennCann, game—Trivial Pursuit, and favorite saying “hey dude”. Well, we think the seniors at Baker have pretty good taste and as this poll shows, we were right.

Friends are people your own age who are going through and who understand the similar joys and problems you are experiencing. The day you got up late, didn’t curl your hair, and put your old clothes on, you can count on a friend to say something complimentary and make what seemed to be a terrible day a better one due to their kind words. Friends are people that are compatible, either because of their likenesses or differences. Some friends seem to have almost everything in common, from looks to hobbies. Other friends are exact opposites whose personalities compliment each other. School is the place where many lifetime friends are made. Friends are found in school gossipping before homeroom, walking to classes together, or studying in the library. Friends are people you enjoy being with and who feel the same for you. Friends are a very important part of high school life. As friends know, having each other is a very special and helpful part of growing up.

Out of 450 seniors in the class of 1985, 24 took advantage of this opportunity and finished high school on January 22. Most early graduates however, will join their classmates on June 23 for the official commencement ceremony. What are the advantages of graduating early? For many it’s a chance to relax and do what they want, but most admit it’s not going to be all fun and games. Some are planning on getting full-time jobs to contribute towards college tuition while others would like to see a portion of their earnings go towards cars, vacations and other luxuries they couldn’t afford before. Pam Bennett said, “I’m planning on getting a full time job to earn some money so I can travel before going to college. I’ll probably go to Germany to visit my friends.” Still, others aren’t taking a lot of time off between high school and college. Marie Arcuni is entering Long Island University only 4 days after her January graduation. She sums up her decision by saying, “One of the best advantages of graduating early is that I’m able to get a head start in both college and life.” Julie Anderson One of the 24 early grads. Kim Chalone smiles while thinking about her approaching graduation. Seniors 151 SIBLINGS Learning is fun at Baker, and is made easy for those underclassmen who learn the ways of studying by their elder siblings. There are a large amount of seniors in our school who have a younger brother or sister attending this school also. It seems that it is easier for the younger to learn things about the school from the older, such as: which hallways are the most crowded so that they may avoid them, which way is fastest to get from one class to another, and also where to catch the bus to get home. This is just some of the information that can be found out from siblings as seniors. The younger siblings can also find out what their teachers and classes are going to be like. This makes it easy for someone to find out first thing, what kind of year it’s going to be. One quickly learns the “tricks of the trade” about getting around Baker High school. From there, you can take advantage of your knowledge of this school, and when you become a senior you can tell your sibling about this fine school.

The new board game Trivial Pursuit which came out last winter. The game begins as players roll the die and move their game piece in the direction of their choice. Each color represents a different category of questions. Orange—sports and leisure, green—science and nature, yellow—history, brown—art and literature, blue—geography, and pink—entertainment. If the questions are answered correctly, the player receives an extra turn. The object is to fill the game piece with a “pie-piece” of each category. The popularity of Trivial Pursuit is largely due to the challenge and originality of the game. The learning and enjoyment derived from playing make it doubly successful. Hackeysack is another new game which has become popular with teens in the past year. A hackeysack is little beanbag made from pig skin. The game can be played with any number of people, and the object is to keep the hackey sack from hitting the ground using anything but hands. New games are always fun to learn and a great way to spend time with family and friends. Susan Stanley Michelle McCormick asks, “Where Is the Guggenheim located?”.

This offer is of course open to all students, but only a few take the challenge of working hard to be the best. Class rank is based on the overall grade point average of the students since their work in ninth grade, this average is weighted according to the type of workload taken. Honors courses, for example, are weighted more than Regents. There was much competition in the class of 1985, and students were separated by only hundreths of a point in the rankings. This year’s valedictorian is Ken Mincar whose weighted average is 112.035. The salutatorian is Sandy Scibetta with an average of 109. Susan Stanley, Becky Jones, Stella Ogata, Susan Doyle, Clint Church, Kelly O’Donnell, Diana Liptak, and John Winegard comprise the rest of this year’s “Top 10” respectively. These students deserve this special recognition and are to be commended for their fine performances. Becky Jones sums it up by saying, “We’ve worked so hard for so long. I know I’ve tried to do more than just academics, and 1 wish people realized how hard it is to try to excel in everything. Having done it for myself and now it all seems worth it.” Marta Grutka Seniors 157 A popular thing to do on weekends is to go to sporting events like these dedicated fans do. 158 Seniors Julie Anderson Harry Pettitt James Pfeiffer Regina Phelps Glynnis Phoebe Michael Pidgeon David Piedmonte Terri Pientka Linda Piotrowicz Charles Plummer Karen Pochala Kristin Pocsatko Tracy Pogact Gary Polmanteer II Anthony Pompo Claudine Pompo Mary Beth Powers Melanie Pratt Maureen Ptak Kelly Quist Kimberly Recore Michael Reed T.G.l.F. Overwhelmed with excitement, The Senior Class just can’t wait to get out the doors of school. Weekends in Baldwinsville are good times and lots of memories. When asked Doug Styers gave his opinion on weekends, “A weekend is a time to do what you want, and to get out, enjoy yourself and have a good time. Weekends can be what you want them to be. Whether dull and boring, or rowdy and wild, whatever way you make it, it’s your own decision.” Weekends can also be a time for relaxation. For instance, Beaver Lake Nature Center has many trails that you can walk through and explore many different aspects of nature. You can also spend time at Tri-County Mall Cinema, which plays your favorite movies at half price. If that’s not enough, ther e’s always that inevitable task of doinc homework. Many students take the opportunity to spend a day at the public library to do work. Whether we work or play, the weekend always comes welcomed by all. After a long week at school, we all could use a break. Peter Johns Seniors 159 DECISIONS Planning four years of your life in one year is a task which is very time consuming, and also confusing. During the late part of their junior year, students may realize that out of thirteen, only one year remains for them in high school. Once seniors, however, the reality of the situation is constantly on our minds. Yes, college is indeed around the corner for a majority of the students after graduation in June has occured. Narrowing the options is difficult. Seniors, with the help of guidance counselors and parents, look at institutions which seem appropriate for them. Location, size, reputation, and cost are all factors to be considered. Once the school is chosen, going through admissions procedures takes a lot of effort. Writing essays, going for interviews, getting teacher evaluations, it’s quite a task. At times it can be stressful. Perhaps the worst part is waiting for the response from your selected university as to whether you’re qualified to attend it or not. For some, rejection by one school could change the whole outcome of a student’s plans. John Diamond hopes to attend LeMoyne University, “ . . that’s really my main choice. If I can’t go there, I’ll probably have to go to O.C.C. for two years until something else comes up.” To the general attitude of those who plan to attend college is that continuing their education is important. As Lynda Roe says, “I consider college to be an opportunity which 1 appreciate having given to me.” Marta Crutko Renee Reiser Robert Restani Judith Rheome Christopher Robbins John Roberts Jr. Andrea Rochefort Mark Rode Lynda Roe Kimberly Rogala Kellie Roney Elizabeth Root Kirstin Rossler Patricia Russ Nancy Russell Christine Rydelek Malene Rydhard Jeffrey Salanger Karen Salisbury Patricia Samson Jane Santmyer 160 Seniors Julie Anderson On November 14, Baker held the annual “col- lege night” John Minnoe and Scott Williams took advantage of all the colleges that were there.

Many students have hobbies or a collecl ion of something that interests them. Some people collect coins or stamps while other people have more out of th 2 ordinary hobbies like collecting K ala bears or thimbles. Hobbies give students something else to do bes des homework, while at the same tim-; giving them some personal enjoyment. Vern Nuzzo, a senior, likes to collect stuffed animals. Vern says, “I like to collect stuffed animals because they’re cute and cuddly.” Another student, Rolf Christiansen likes to travel around the world. Rolf says, ‘‘I like traveling because it’s great to see the countries and meet people.” Many students find that their hobbies and interests change as they get older, and though once they might have collected dolls, they now are collecting records or tapes. No matter what the hobby, everyone agrees that they are interesting and fun.

By the end of your sophomore year you can taste it. The excitement builds. Once you finally become a Senior, you’ve got it! That disease that plagues the entire senior class: Senioritis. First you come down with the “Better than underclassmen” Syndrome. The feeling of prestige and power is overwhelming. “My definition of Senioritis is when a senior thinks that they are superior to the underclassmen. They take easy courses and don’t do any work.” says Linda Serafini. Your SATs are in and you’ll be accepted to the college of your choice. You are now taking simple classes and you have the feeling that you can do whatever crosses your mind. You find the ability to skip classes in a single bound. When asked when she got Senioritis, Senior Becky Jones said “1 had it last year, Everyone is counting the days until graduation.” Now comes the final stage. The feeling of being an adult and becoming independent hits you. You know this is good and you’ll have to handle it. Maturity sets in, you are now . . .The Mellow Senior.

Senior Renee Reiser said “because the movie interested me and 1 wanted to see it.” John Silvia tells us that he goes to the theater to “enjoy the movie with a bunch of people and have a good time.” The movie industry is big business and this past summer Hollywood produced quite a few blockbusters. Among the most popular were “The Karate Kid”, “Purple Rain”, “Bachelor Party”, “Gremlins”, “Revenge of the Nerds”, and “Ghostbusters”. “Ghostbusters” was overwhelmingly the most popular choice of our senior student body, as of November 26 it has spent an unbelievable 7 weeks at the Tri-county Mall Theatre. Although most everyone agrees that this is the best movie, everyone has their own favorite part or character Amy Butler said she liked the qUeer nerd guy’ . Kim Chalone liked “the Sta-Puff Marshmallow Man and when the one guy said ‘He slimed me!' So if you are sitting home some Friday night asking yourself “What is there to do?”, get up and go to the movies. You might just meet someone you know.

The English language has been “totally” changed by the senior class. The typical senior doesn’t say “Hello, how are you doing?” You’ll be more likely to hear “Hey Bud, how’s it rockin’?”, and “Hey Dude, it’s casual!” It seems every year we adopt new words into our vocabularies. Some are made up, and some are antiquated words that have recently returned to vogue. Below is a list to help out when your not exactly sure what you’re saying. Casual—relaxed, toned down, synonym—mellow. Bogus—nothing of any importance; dissorder. synonym—messed. Bummer—bad time; something which is not fun. synonyms—drag, bum deal. Cruise—to leave quickly, synonyms—book, take off, split. Later—goodbye, synonyms—later days, catch ya later. I’m history. I’m outta here. Munchies—any type of food, synonym—nouch. Pig Out—to eat massive amounts of “munchies”. synonym—wolf down. Psyched—full of strong, pleasant feelings; not calm, synonym—excited. Wild — without control, synonym—freak. Some of the favorite Senior Sayings at Baker are “scary,” “we’re in a fight,” “get a grip,” “it’s your attitude,” “right there, buddy,” “get a real life,” “it’s rock ’n roll,” and “ya know.” When asked her favorite saying Kelly Burdick said “I’m so excited!” —Trlcla Davis Adam Neff Joseph Ravas Tami Thomas Deborah Vermette 170 Seniors Debbie Pettit Nicky Caracci Dennis Cobia Eva Marie DTmperio Kimberly Guth John Hanmer Sherri Haney Kimberly Johnston Richard Kousky Leonard Lasinsky Gary Markert Stephen Miller Michael Mayornick I FREE TIME Unfinished schoolwork and homework can easily be completed in the well- behaved studyhalls at Baker. “Studyhalls are a great place to think about your day and a good place for counseling one another, and helping each other with problems”, say seniors George Timmons and Dan Henderson. The library and the guidance office along with the career resource center, are popular places to go during free studytime. And last but least, there’s always those few who choose to relax and sleep on those long dreary Mondays. As can be seen, studyhalls are an opportunity to do a variety of different schoolwork. For people who do not complete their homework and for people who have busy schedules after school. Perhaps this is why many students choose to include studyhalls as a part of their school day. Studyhalls are fun times, David Piedmonte. Lisa Case, Amy Duger, and Kim Wallace spend the time catching up on the latest gossip. Seniors 171 THE END VWXYZ . . .The end is coming soon for the senior class of 1985. Many art glad that after twelve years of homework, jammed lockers, tests, and quizzes it is all over. There are others who think of this as a new beginning of their future years to come, instead of an end of what was. Sue Stanley says, “I feel that graduating is an exciting time because many new people, places, and experiences are to come. Although we must leave here to move on to better and brighter things, we mustn't forget the friends that made these past years the best of our lives.

To raise money for the Junior Prom the class held a drawing for an AM FM stereo cassette Walkman radio. The drawing was won by Lisa Blake’s mother, Pat. They also had a candy sale to raise funds. In the future the officers would like to have an Easter Flower Sale with baby roses. The senior class trip is being planned to Florida for the ’86 graduates. Being a class officer is an important job that carries with it many duties. Val Prysiazniuk “wanted to be elected vice president because I enjoy the responsibility of leadership and I love to work with people.” Kelly Lynn, on the other hand, “Just thought it would be fun.” Val was also elected Homecoming Princess and Kelly is involved in varsity tennis and Ski Club. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to lead your fellow students, but the officers of the Class of 1986 seem to like it. Michelle McCormick Officers Betsy Hosier, Val Prysiazniuk.

In the guidance office, Scott Major takes time out to take a test for the SAT’s which he will be taking in May. «---------- S.A.T. What do these three letters stand for? Scholastic Aptitude Test, a very important part of a high school junior’s year. P.S.A.T.’s are taken by juniors in the fall as a practice test for the S.A.T.’s taken the following spring. The test which is offered throughout the United States, is often required by colleges and universities and measures ability in two main areas: mathematics and verbal. Well, it’s Saturday morning the day of your S.A.T.’s. You drag yourself out of bed to arrive at your test center by 8:30. The three hour duration from 9- 12 may seem the longest of your life but when it’s all over you can once again relax. That is until your scores come in!!

Juniors 179 REGENTS Your Junior year of high school is considered to be the toughest. The main reason for this is the many Regents exams that you will be taking at the end of the school year. For the average junior, there are usually four Regents taken. These being in the areas of English, Social Studies, Math, and Science. But there are some students who, if they have taken a foreign language for a certain number of years, must also take a Regents exam for that language. These Regents exams are taken, and if satisfactorily passed, you earn a regents credit, which goes towards a Regents diploma. Junior Alan Abbott shows us how he feels by saying, “I think the Regents are important, but they shouldn’t give us so many in one year.” Debbie Pcttil Smiling and studying simultaneously.

For a long time, tradition has led people to believe that when a girl turns sixteen, something special happens. The junior class’ girls celebrated a lot of sixteenth birthdays recently with decorating lockers and having surprise parties for their friends. Two juniors that had surprise sweet sixteen parties were Bridget Wiley and Shannon Groff. When they were asked about their party, Bridget replied, “I was really surprised that my friends did that for me, it meant a lot.” Shannon added, “It probably was the biggest surprise of my life, I’ll never forget it.” In the tradition of gift giving, many girls receive a string of pearls from their parents. This is a way of showing their trust and awareness that their daughter has become a young adult. At sixteen a girl’s parents usually become more lenient and start allowing their daughter to date guys. Many sophomores are still anticipating their sixteenth birthday when they will receive the privileges of becoming a young woman. Many people view sweet sixteen as a stepping stone in growing up. It’s a memorable birthday that girls always cherish. Kelly Burdick Here making a wish and trying to blow out all 16 candles is Lisa Pratt. Celebrating with friends and family make it special.

Juniors 183 RHYTHM Music changes and adapts. New things come along, old things come back, and some live on forever. On the rock scene, we’ve seen the rise of Motley Crue, the discovery of Benny Mardones, the Return of Kiss and Bruce Springsteen, and Van Halen is still going strong. Pop music introduces new faces like Madonna, brings back Prince, and Duran Duran remains in the limelight. Everyone has their own musical taste. Lisa Blake likes pop. “I like music you can dance or sing along with.” Whatever kind of music you like, there is a band playin’ your tune! Ludnru.’ Brown Hanging around with friends.

IT’S Andrea Lockwood V� Juniors 187 UP TO YOU When school is out for the day Kris Kraft goes home in order “to watch the television and listen to the radio.” Other students like Darrin Flanagan, “get together with friends and talk.” Yet there are still other juniors that as soon as the weekend comes they seem as if all they do is sleep. One of the most popular pastimes according to Kelly Lynn is sleeping. The junior’s year is probably one of their busiest years. They have many things to do, and not as much time as they probably would like. The pain and agony of lifting weights is worth it for Jerry Wojcik. He gets great results! Your junior year must be one of the hardest years in the homework department. Most juniors at the end of the year have taken up to five regents courses. Therefore, many juniors in their spare time do their homework. Another thing juniors do is try for their driver’s license, so they may be able to drive around town by themselves with no need for any parent supervision. Receiving your driver’s license must be one of the most exciting moments in any junior’s life. Looking like they've just seen a really foxy lady, Joe Musculino and Andy Bender check out chicks in the hallway. BOBS Never before has there been so many ways to wear your hair, so many colors to dye your hair or so many things to put it in. Some of the new hairstyles are overwhelming, sporting tails and a variety of shades of colors. Some dashing and daring people take the risk and get the wildest of hairstyles. Suzi McShea said, “This year’s hairstyles give me the chilly-willies.” For guys, the spiked look or brush cut, is still in. But the hairstyles are getting shorter and more clean cut, parted on the side. With girls, the “bob” cut is popular, sometimes worn as an inverted V or an A-semetrical. But short bi-leveled hair still dominates all others this year, full on top and close to the nape. European styling mooses and gels have become the ultimate styling tool. Some guys and girls use gels and foams to get the wet effect, also a new look. Some styles will go as fast as they came, but they made their appearance SHUTTER SHY JUNIORS Suzette Allen Eric Ames Christopher Barnes Andrew Bender Vicki Brand Randy Brown Brian Burleigh Timothy Burlingame Paula Cantello Heidi Church Chris Clark Jonathan Clarke Edward Corsello Susan Edwards Teresa Fabrizio Trade Fauler Christopher Florack Sarah Francis Lisa Getti Lorraine Grey Robert Hubbard Stacey Jankowski Amy Johnson Christopher Karn Todd King Chris Kinnear Kimberly Kocik Kristin Krafft John Krivda Kevin Krupa Darlene Lippke Patricia Mayes Todd McCall Stephen Mcllroy Mary Mero Theresa Mero William Midlar Brian Monica John O’Brien Alecia Osinski Laurie Peterson Matthew Pollack Albert Powell Denise Rice Robert Richman Timothy Ripley Edward Roe Diane Shute Karen Snyder David Stanton Christopher Sutliff Jonathan Tappan Richard Tuso David Tuzinski John Wallace 188 Juniors Debbie Pettit and shocked us all.

Scott Major JOIN THE CROWD As lockers slam shut and kids run down the halls to make it to their bus on time, Joe Jr. talks to his friend John about what to do on Friday night. Like many other students, they decide to go to the Big Game. Attending sporting events is a favorite of kids in B’ville as something to do on a Friday night or any day after school. It’s a great way to spend an evening with your friends while you show your pride in B’ville. Many people would agree with Bill Silvia, who goes, “to see people and have a good time while we win.” Cheering crowds are great for the players, too. Chris Coleman likes a lot of people there when he’s playing soccer or wrestling, because, “you know that when you go out there representing B’ville, there is always going to be people there cheering you on to a victory.” Getting those crowds to yell is the job of our hard-working cheerleaders. Toni Colosimo, who cheers for basketball and football, says, “We’re there to psyche up the crowd, and when the crowd is psyched, the players get psyched because they know we’re behind them all the way.” Win or lose, game, match, or meet, the fans will always go out to support our great athletes. Michelle McCormick Watching the Bee’s in action is Chris Mackin, supporting the B'ville soccer team to victory. Juniors 191 SOPHS ON THE GO Other than the few freshmen at Baker, for most tenth graders this is their first year in the high school building. Sophomores meet many new students, as both Durgee and Ray junior high schools combine to form the Class of ’87. The sophomore officers, advised by Mies Kinney and Mrs. Nelson, have many plans for their class. The class is led by: President—Paul Lucas, Vice president— Lisa Pratt, Secretary—Shelly Earle, and Treasurer—Kandy Thomas. The officers plan on fundraising through candy and flower sales. They also plan 192 Sophomores Linda Serafim to sell personalized buttons, something never previously sold. According to secretary Lisa Pratt, through a monthly sophomore newsletter the officers would like to promote class spirit and keep their class members informed on school and class events. The class is also planning ahead by creating a scholarship fund to award to a class member in their senior year. Being a class officer is an honor but after election the position requires time, meetings, and wise decisions to successfully lead their class.

Most sophomores don’t have their licenses so they look to other types cf wheels for transportation. Whether it be a BMX bike, moped, or ten speec bike, they get where they want to gc. Transportation isn’t the only use fcr wheels. Some make a sport out of it. Many students have taken up BMX racing and freestyle competition in the past few years. One place you’ll find them racing is at Longbranch park. Empire Skates has been a popular By the sire of the huge trophy Tim Coopei is holding, he must have won a very import int race. hang out ever since the big rollerskating craze began a few years ago. Another form of vehicular locomotion is motocross. Tim Cooper has been into motocross for years. “I got interested in motocross when a friend let me ride his motorcycle. I was 5 years old then, and I have been riding and racing since. I race because it is a sport that 1 like and do well. I plan to race professionally in later years.” Sophomores use all different kinds of wheels to get around. These motocross racers start their engines to prepare for the big race. Sophomores 195 WHEEL AROUND WRITE ME BACK!! The sophomore work load doesn’t seem to be quite as heavy as the juniors’ and seniors.’ Frequently, sophomores run out of things to do during school, so they write notes. Many sophomores pass a note to a friend between every period. Writing notes to each other is one of their main ways of socializing while in school. During classes, sophomores seem to always be passing notes across the room behind the teacher’s back. When Valicia Searle was asked about writing notes, she replied, “When I’m bored and there’s extra time I like to write notes to my friends.” Senior Baker students can remember when they were sophomores and were always writing notes to a friend or sweetheart. Senior Marta Grutka says, “I don’t really have the time to write notes during school.” Sophomores will find that it will be much harder to write notes to friends next year because the classes become harder. Even so, the trend will always go on, and sophomores each year will be found screaming down the hall to a friend, “Write me back!” „„ „ .. ’ Kellv Burdx� Studyhall is a perfect place for passing and writing notes.

You can find out a lot about a person by looking at his her class ring. You can have your birthstone, your name, initials, zodiac sign, high school major, hobbies and things like that put on your ring. There’s also a variety of stone cuts and styles of rings. “I like my class ring. It has my birthstone and my name on it.

Although I got it at a jewelers I got it to remember what high school was like,” says Linda Melvin. You can often see girls wearing their boyfriend’s rings on a chain or wrapped with yarn on their fingers. In this way, a class ring symbolizes love and commitment. Sometimes parents let their high school aged kids wear their class rings. They get passed along through the family as an heirloom. Class rings are an important part of a student’s high school years. Luanne Brown Juniors 199 IN-SCHOOL AGAIN? A rule Is defined as being a guide or principle laid down to govern conduct, and our school has plenty of them. These rules are necessary in keeping proper conduct of students throughout the school day and year. Among the many disciplinary rules of our school, there are some that are a bit odd. One such rule is that of not being able to have glass bottles in school. They don’t want to have to clean up glass from broken bottles. Another rule is that which prohibits Some students in our school like Amy Bliss and Steve Nisbet try to liven up the halls with a ra- dio, but the school prohibits this. 200 Sophomores Trkta Davis having tape recorders, portable tape players, radios, and Walkman headsets in school during school hours.

Enjoy life, but be able to face the many hardships that will occur In your future years.”—Brenda Holt “Have fun because you grow up too quick. Try hard in school, because it really is worth it. But most of all, try to avoid teachers while off grounds during lunch periods.”—Ken Annacchino “Make the best out of your lives, and school.

Then, the television took over. In recent years, the two have become one, and Mtv was created. Many people spend hours just sitting in front of the t.v. while their favorite groups perform. Many parents think this music is a bad influence on their kids, but just about everyone, especially teenagers, love Mtv. Some videos are like a live concert. You can watch groups perform on stage without the price of a concert ticket. Others show the story behind the song. They illustrate the lyrics as if it were a three minute movie. Others seem to have nothing to do with the song, but still are entertaining. Chris Bresee watches Mtv when she can. “1 don’t have Mtv where I live, but when I’m at my aunt’s house, 1 watch it.” Tammy (Holly) Skiff is an Mtv addict. She watches it all the time. She says, “Mtv is a wild and crazy show.” Chris Miles has a more to the point statement. “Mtv is wild.” Mtv shows all kinds of music to please all kinds of people. It’s got something for everybody. Luanno Brown Relaxing in front of the tube to watch the latest videos, Mark Stress loves it, but Kim Jacobs looks skeptical. Mtv’s popularity is evident by the sight of pins and t-shirts in the halls.

Jeans have been around a long time and have been a style that’s never worn out. People everywhere can be found wearing jeans, mainly because they’re so comfortable and durable. Now, jeans are more popular than ever. They’ve become a dressier look and are still comfortable. Jeans can be worn baggy or close fitting. Many designs have been added to jeans, such as pin stripes and checks. Stone wash jeans have also become a popular style. Now, jeans aren’t just blue; they are a variety of colors. A popular Sporting the latest fashions in jeans, Mary Pat Gunn prepares to leave for home after a long day at school. type, seen this year, is cropped jeans, made of different colors and patterns of denim. When sophomore Kimberly Littau asked what her favorite type of jeans were, she replied, “My favorite type of jeans are baggy, pin-striped Lee’s.” Even though the styles have changed and there are many new types of jeans, Levi’s and Lee's are still “in.” They have been a part of fashion since 1873, and will probably never die out. Blue jeans last a long time and you don’t have to worry about them going out of style. Kelly Burdick and Luanne Brown A new type of jeans are those with flap pockets which can be seen frequently between classes in the halls. Sophomores 207 During a freeze, Godfrey Kelly slops in the middle of a spin while Rick Fuller andGreg Wallace do the King Tut. CHILLING OUT What would you say if someone told you that they were chilling out with the b-boys that night? Most people would say, “What?” Unless you are a b-boy, or breakdancer, you wouldn’t understand them. Breakdancing is one of the hottest types of dancing; but most people can’t breakdance. A lot of moves are complicated and take a lot of time and practice to learn. Most of the breakdancers practice after school in the main foyer or behind the boys gym or just follow the sound of music. A group of sophomores called the SensSonic Rockers dance at area clubs and at birthday parties. In the future they plan on making a video. They have already put on a show at the public library to a huge crowd. So, even if you can’t breakdance, here are some terms so at least you can talk like a breakdancer. B-boys are breakdancers. To bite is to steal someone else’s moves. Breaking is acrobatic dancing done mostly on the floor. Chilling out is hanging out. Hip- hop is what breakdancers call themselves and what they do. An M.C. is a rapping music vocalist. A master is the best or experienced. A grandmaster is the best of the best. Throw down is breaking or rapping. Toy is the worst and rapping is chanting a rhyme over music.

The freshman class is advised by social studies teacher Ms. Proppe, and is led by officers Lenora Render, President; Karen Hebblethwaite, Secretary; Pat Soloman, Vice President; and Hilary Allen, treasurer. The class held a very successful jelly bean and candy bar sale and plans on holding a dance with their fellow freshman at Durgee. Coming to a new school took some adjusting to, but as Lori Gallager stated, ! liked meeting all the new people in the high school. It didn’t bother me leaving the other freshmen because most of the people in my classes from junior high are also in Baker this year.” Karen Hebblethwaite and Hilary Allen commented on their first year, “We really enjoyed meeting all the new people and the more activities and opportunities available here.” Susan Stanley The Freshmen Class Officers: Hilary Allen, Trea- surer; Karen Hebblethwaite, Secretary, Pat Solomon, Vice-President; Lenora Render, Pres' dent. 210 Freshmen Linda Serafim Donald Allen Hilary Allen Billie Jo Appleton Mark Arrigo William Baker Susan Barrett Linda Barrows Michael Barycki Vicki Bennett Mike Benton David Bigtree Tracie Billings Tim Blumer Christy Boak Kimberly Bourke Kathleen Brady Michael Burgess Karen Burke Jeffrey Burt Gregory Capria Tracy Carioga Linda Clements Keith Cole David Comeau Elizabeth Corcoran Freshmen 211 Kimberly Corcoran Leslie Croffut Jeanna Debarr Victor DeJohn Tammy Demaio Amy Dobraski Laura Dodge Kathleen Doran Laura Eastman Tela Ernst David Evans Hordon Evans Herald Fish Colleen Fitzgerald Chad Flecher Natalie Florczyk Steven Fralick Mark Gagas Lorraine Gallager Cynthia Gardinier Becky Gay Nancy Griss Renee Girard Michele Girard Michele Gritzke A half year of either art or music will soon be a graduation requirement. Freshman, Jeff Kocik fulfills his requirement by taking photography. 212 Freshmen Julie Anderson NECESSITIES This year’s Freshman Class is already working hard to meet their graduation requirements for 1988. The reason for this is because the requirements are increasing in change to number. It seems that people are expecting more from students these days with our increasing technological and computerized society. In order to keep up with this, students are getting more education in school. This knowledge is obtained by students taking more required classes during their high school years. Four extra credits are now required to earn a diploma upon which graduation from high school is granted. These credits will be earned in four different areas. Students will need one extra credit in social studies, math, and science each. The additional credit will have to be in an area which is compatible with their major sequence. Freshman Jeff McLaughlin expresses his opinion by saying, “It is hard work, with the extra classes, but it will work out for the best in the end.” Lisa Pratt Even though Bill Shultz and Jim Maquine en- joy band and would have taken it anyway, they are aPPy ° know that they are also meeting the new requirements. Julie Anderson Something every freshman, like JoEllen Stod- dard and Marissa Biladi wants, is a break in the day just to sit around and giggle with friends. Freshmen 213 SEE YA NEXT YEAR The move to Baker is tough on many Freshmen. They have been switched into a new, bigger school full ol unfamiliar faces and strange hallways, not to mention harder dasses. One thing that makes it worse on these students is the fact that many of their friends are still at the junior high. This makes it harder for them to see each other and puts a strain on many friendships. Robyn Tedd has this problem. “A lot of my friends now go to Durgee and the only time I get to see them is if I run into them when I’m shopping or something like that. I’ve heard that the Freshman year is supposed to be fun, but it can’t be if none of your friends are there with you.” For some students, the move didn’t create any difficulties. ‘‘All our friends are here at Baker so we have no problem with it,” say Tela Ernst and Barbara Hawthorne. The Freshman year of high school is tough, but it’s just one more stepping stone toward the completion of school. Luanne Brown Scott Major Studyhalls provide a time to meet with friends while getting some work done. Here Brian Johnson takes a break.

Just like us, they lead lives outside of school. The amount of time it takes to prepare lessons, tabulate grades, and the other tasks involved in being a teacher, is great. Any sparetime that they can get ahold of is precious to them. Many teachers have families to raise and like to spend time with them when they are off of work. Others use their extra time to pursue other talents or interests they may have. Drama teacher Mr. Barden likes to bowl, and is a theater enthusiast. He is the president of the Baldwinsville Although you’d never expect it, teaching English is not Mr. Honeywell’s absolute favorite pasttime. He also enjoys flying his private air- plane. Not only does Mrs. O’Hara teach cooking classes at home, she also led her French IV class in making a dessert buffet for the faculty. Here she helps Mrs. Nevid make a choice. Theater Guild. Mr. Magnarelli enjoys playing guitar and singing while not in school. The things that some teachers do are interrelated to their work. Mrs. O’Hara, a French teacher, has studied French cooking in France and loves to prepare all sorts of fine “cuisine” at home with her husband. She also gives cooking lessons at her home. However, a relationship to the subject that they teach is not always obvious. For example, Physics teacher, Mr. Doris is an avid golfer as well as the town Mayor. When you look at teachers from this aspect, they seem more “real” to you—don’t they? 218 Faculty Faculty 219 Miss Chester Mrs. Johnson Mr. Miller Mr. Brussel Mr. Lauri Mrs. Sheenan Mrs. Clover Mr. Crotty Mrs. Dority Mrs. Duckett Mrs. Gammage Mr. Hidy Miss Rose Mrs. Coulter Miss Cyr Mrs. Nevid Mrs. Campbell Mr. Dillon Mrs. Pratt Mr. Bailey Mr. MacPherson Mr. O’Donnell Mr. Armstrong Mr. Cooper Mr. Scott 4r.

Many teachers volunteer their time to be advisors to clubs in the school. They spend many long hours after school, and help students run various activities. Mrs. Luther, the advisor for this year’s Student Council, says, “I’m a librarian, advisor, and wife. I have to divide my time accordingly. If the students do the same, we’ll be able to get much accomplished.” However, this isn’t always the case, which makes the advisor’s job difficult. Mrs. Gamage, former class advisor, says she’d avoid being one again due to, too much apathy. Advisor’s are there to help—not do everything.” Adding to this is Miss Cyr, this year’s Junior Class advisor. “It’s hard work if the officers aren’t motivated. Especially once it’s time for senior year.” Mrs. Jacobe is one teacher who almost never leaves school. She directs the musical and Rock Ensemble, both of which take up long hours, and even weekends. Mrs. Johnson advises the Lyre Staff which requires organizing a group of kids in order to meet deadlines. Let’s not forget the coaches of the sports that much of the student body take part in. To all of these caring teachers, the student body says, “Thanks!” Without your help, we wouldn’t be able to get the most out of our school years. Marla Grutka Julie Anderson Helping students to get their portfolios ready for college reviews is Miss Chester, the advisor to the Future Artists. This year the senior class advisor, Mrs. Campell was extremely helpful in organizing the senior class trip to Florida. Faculty 221 LEADERS IN ACTION You may ask yourself, when referring to the school system, “Who are the people that are responsible for all of this?” Well, the answer is the Administration. There were a few changes in the administration this year. In the school we now have two principals, Mr. Wiltse and Mr. Nault. Mr. Coleman has stepped up and is now executive principal. We also have a new superintendent, Dr. Brown. The administration does not just enforce the rules of the school and give discipline to those students who need it. They also give us a variety of school functions which they support to many lengths. Not only do they support these activities, but they also get directly involved. Mr. Coleman can always be seen attending a sporting event or getting rowdy at a pep rally. The secretaries are also a big part of this very special group. They can be seen working very diligently throughout the whole school day. They keep everything pretty organized so school and all of its functions can run smoothly and efficiently. These fine people should be given the recognition that they truly deserve. For all the hard work, we say, “Thanks!” D bb Pelta 222 Faculty Debbie Pettit Mrs. Follett Mrs. Luther Tim Link Mrs. Casper Mrs. Houck Mrs. Krafft Mrs. Houghtaling Mrs. Engels Although not seen by everyone, Mrs. Pillans does a very proficient job by working in the In- School Planning room.

Climate, business, and size all help to make up a unique atmosphere for each habited area. Located in Central New York, Baldwinsville experiences many types of weather during the year. Through heat waves and snow storms, the community of Baldwinsville stays close- knit. In the Messenger we are kept up-to-date on the latest happenings throughout the town. Anheuser-Busch has brought many new people to the area who all add to the business in town. Increased traffic with many large trucks is a result of this, one which long-time residents have had to adapt to. Other changes which took place this year were the building of a new post office, Walter Melon’s, and PIZZA MAN. At the four corners, the bakery changed its name from the Corner Cakery to the Bake Shoppe. Across from this is a new bus stop and water fountain where the S O buses make pick-ups on a regular basis each day. It’s important to keep up on the developments in the community and to know all about the goings-on. People should take pride in where they live. We are glad to see the growth and improvement in Baldwinsville, and for this reason want to record it now. B’ville is truly the best! A new addition to the Baldwinsville community was the S O bus shelter. It is particularly useful during the winter months. This unique view of the river falls is especially interesting during a winter sunset. You probably drive past it 10 times a day but never realize the full beauty of the Baldwinsville water tower.

A smokeless bar restaurant is a financial risk, but the concept is appealing enough to be successful, as the cafe has proven.” It’s a refreshing difference to me as a musician because the lack of smoke to fill your eyes and throat makes playing guitar and singing for 3-4 hours much easier.” Walter Melon’s is an all around great meeting place. Ola Olsson Walter Melon’s is the first in the nation to be a non-smoking cafe and B'ville is proud they made their home here.

The final bell tells students it’s time to end a hard day of school. By the way this student flings on his coat, we know he’s in a hurry to get home. At the end of the day, some students are in such a hurry to get home that they don’t even put on their coats. Kelly Burdick 246 Closing Tricia Davis ouble take “Memories fade, but your yearbook is for keeps.” This “campaign slogan” used by the Lyre staff during the year makes a valid conclusion about the sentimental value of a yearbook. Once 1985 rang in, students returned to school to get ready for the beginning of the second semester which would bring schedule changes, college acceptance letters, a change in weather, and eventually the end of the ’84-’85 school year. A common comment made by both students and faculty at this time is, “I can’t believe how fast this year is going.” The Octoberfest, Homecoming Weekend, and the Dome are now just memories that are soon to be replaced by those of the Bruce Springsteen concert, spring break, proms, and graduation. For the seniors, 1985 is their year. The last year of high school will always be one that they will cherish and want to remember. The freshmen, sophomores, and juniors will change a lot between now and the time that they will graduate, and will be amazed when they look back at this yearbook in future years. Perhaps they will even have to take a “double take” when they realize how different things are now as compared to then. The goal of this year’s yearbook staff has been to compile as many events, facts and faces of this school year as possible. While some days seem to drag on during high school years, the friends we make, and all of the fun times we spend together, definitely make them some of the best of our lives. In this book, we’ve captured some of the great times, as well as talked about some bad experiences. All in all, the school year, now past, was one which marked the beginning of some drastic changes throughout the district. Its end could actually be considered a sort of new beginning for the education of future generation of students. Years from now, as you look through the pages, make sure to double check for those surprise pictures of the people you were friends with, along with the quotes expressing the opinions they held. Read to find out what trends were present in fashion and fun, so that you’ll be able to say, “This is the way things were when I was in high school...” At the close of this school year and the 1985 Lyre, the staff would like to take time to say goodbye to the graduating seniors. We wish you all of the luck in the world and hope that Double Take will be as special to you as it has been to us. Take a look at what we’ve done, The year was full of lots of fun. Look again at the memories we’ve stored. In a book you’ll hold dear forever more.
