Yet the quietness which enveloped the old building was soon re- placed by shouting voices echoing throughout the halls. Lockers slammed shut and feet scurried to class as the 7:45 bell shrilly cut off all memories of summer and once again commemorated the begin- ning of school. It was the start of another year at Clearwater High. Yet every school year differs from the rest and this one was no exception. Having celebrated its 75th anniversary, CHS moved into the final quarter of a century. In keeping with their motto of “Tradition, honor and pride” the school, faculty, and students kept this tradition of excellence alive despite changes. Enrollment reached a new re- cord of 2400 students. To accom- modate for this increase the school strove to better itself fur- ther as badly needed repairs were finally put into effect. New lights and a new sound system were in- stalled in the stadium. Workers completed renovations on a band room, choral room, and new lock- er rooms for the gymnasium be- fore school re-opened on Aug. 30th. As the school grew in size, re- spectability and also in the spirit of its students, it was clear they were building from a tradition of excellence, r -fm -J m � Over the summer, work is completed on the new courtyard to prepare it for the arrival of students.

Ready To Roll T o some students, summer meant three gloriously lazy months away from the school scene. Piles of homework and after-school practices were for- gotten among good friends and good times. Yet other students sacrificed long hours of their va- cation preparing for the start of a new school year. These devoted participants could often be found in the damp grayness of early morning hours practicing their in- dividual interests. One such group were the infa- mous Tornado “Taz” swimmers. Traditionally a spring sport, swimming was switched to a fall event by a majority vote of the school board. Consequently, swim practice carried on throughout the summer to ready swimmers for the first big meet on Septem- ber 15. “I didn’t mind summer practices, but it’ll really start to get cold in the late fall,” stated senior Annette Stefanadis. Another dedicated group was the Varsity and JV football play- ers. Football practice began in late August, and evening hours al- ways brought a flock of players to the field for yet another workout. Cheerleaders, Tornadoettes, and marching band members also took part in summer practices, camps and workshops to prepare for the upcoming sports seasons. In the fall, when school and Fri- day night football games once again became the week’s main events, these groups plunged into action, ready to roll. They were the height of school spirit and in- volvement. Already possessing a reputation for winning, they went on to improve it because they were building from tradition. ▼ - ■- T ? £ I h | ' •; - -t n • Tniiifli ppfe m T he pinball wizard of decades past was rivaled by the generation of students possessing a computer-like expertise of vid- eo games. The traditional pinball arcade had been replaced by the video game room. Spending countless quarters in video game rooms was only one way students spent their summer. They could also be found congregating on Clearwater Beach baking for hours, striving for the perfect tan. Students worked at their first jobs and discovered the video music craze on the ca- ble channel MTV (Music Television). Students returned to school to find newly completed choral and band rooms, refur- bished locker rooms, a child-care center and a finished mural in the cafeteria. In no time at all, homecoming was upon the school and students threw themselves whole-heartedly into making it a success. Homecoming week found a new dress up day, “preppy” day, influenced by a popular mode of dress. The homecoming dance after the game left stu- dents with a collection of memories. Students traditionally attended the Fri- day night football and basketball games, and the newly-completed Holiday Inn Surf- side was a popular after-the-game hangout. The Junior-Senior Prom was again a tre- mendous success, and all students realized the high school year was quickly coming to an end.

Englander The Sunshine Scene fTT7hat is it that makes Clearwater ▼ ▼ shine? What is it that makes our city special?” If you answered, “The beach”, you are in a definite majority. But if one were asked to describe the beach, answers might vary immensely. While one might mention the soft, white sand, the Gulf waters, and the hot sun, an- other might speak of the cool breeze flowing across the poolside deck at Holiday Inn Surfside with the gentle sounds of the band carressing the ears. Probably the most common response would be the daytime swimming and sun- bathing spot. When asked what he thought of the beach, Rick Folwell, senior, respond- ed, “White sand, lots of bikinis, and sail- boats.” Everyday, when the weather per- mitted, flocks of Clearwater residents and tourists alike would cross the causeway to the city’s number one tourist attraction and hangout. One might ask, “What is so big about the beach?” Junior Chuck Hinton answered, “It’s a great place to get a tan.” Skeet Spil- lane responded, “During the summer, it is a good place to see your friends.” No matter what the reason, students spent many afternoons spread out on the beach. “When I think of the beach, Holiday Inn Surf side comes to my mind, because there I can spend time with my friends”, stated junior John Peeples. This seemed to be a common attitude for CHS students. Every weekend night one could find swarms of young people sitting around the pool and on the beach listening to the band. Surfside was the perfect place to catch a few tunes, talk with friends, meet new people, and en- joy the beach. i Another way to enjoy the beach was to cruise up to the Palm Pavillion and hangout for a while. This was the thing to do on a night which seemed to be lost until then. Often on eventless weekend nights and summer week nights, the North Parking lot would be jammed with young people sitting back on cars, with stereos cranked, and fris- bees flying overhead. The Pavillion was the classic place to go if one wasn’t in the mood for a movie or a pizza, or if one simply didn’t want to spend any money. Though the students reasons for liking the beach varied, it was definitely the best spot for relaxing after a long day of school or hanging out on a hot weekend. Though favorite hangouts may change with the years, Clearwater Beach has traditionally been number one in the hearts of CHS stu- dents. ▼ by Jeff Samsel Th 8 Beach mmm asp Bri 1 PfMi As the sun slowly sets into the gulf, it casts the Sandsculpting gave many people a chance to mood for another exciting summer night. show their creativity and skill.

A lthough school provides a chance to meet new people, a challenge to the mind, and a great learning atmosphere, no day is higher regarded to students all over the country than the first day of summer. This summer was no different from any other. Students ventured far away on vaca- tion, found full-time work, cruised the beaches, and simply bummed around. The tradition of summer was spending vacation time traveling. Although most stu- dents stayed within their own country, Coach Jack Wilson led a large group of stu- dents through Europe, and Miss Birch es- corted a small group to France. Another popular place to vacation was the World’s Fair. The fair received very mixed reviews. Staci Graham who attended the fair with her church youth group stated, “It wasn’t worth the money we had to pay to get in, because we waited in long lines all day.” On the other hand, Brad Ashbrook stated, “It was interesting to find out about other countries, but the fair was a unique experience and a lasting memory.” While some took summer as the chance to take it easy, others took full advantage of their break from school and found full time Florida water lovers of all kinds are enticed by the open waters of the bay. Smooth glossy waters set the pace for a challenging day of windsurfing. or part time employment. Some students’ weekends and time off was sufficient time to go out. When asked why he worked, Andy Fanguiare responded, “I wanted the chance to see my friends, and the money didn’t hurt.” Still another type of student headed straight to the beach, and left only to eat and sleep, until summer’s end. Alongside the beach bum, one would have to classify the fisherman, the skier, and the wind- surfer. These students simply took advan- tage of their favorite part of Clearwater; the water. One thing common to most students was the enjoyment of summer vacation by just simply lounging around. “My favorite way to spend summer vacation is to simply sit back and relax,” stated one CHS senior. Whether in France, at the World’s Fair, on the beach, at work, or at a local hangout, students always found a way to enjoy their time away from school. T by Jeff Samsel 10 Summer Fun B.

A Matter of Taste P reppies, beachers, punkers . . . the list goes on and on. What distinguished a Prep from a Punk, a Voguette from a Fun- kette? Hopefully a few simple definitions will help. Preppie: A ‘true’ Prep wouldn’t be caught dead in polyester, a pinto, or sober. As for their clothing, they could easily be spotted. Sperry Topsiders, L.L. Bean Jeans and La- coste Polo shirts with a turned-up collar usually pointed out a preppie. The fashion mecca for female preps was Papagallo’s which was fully stocked with penny loafers, bermuda bags and Fair Isle sweaters. The male prep usually headed for Burdine’s in his Father’s Mercedes as the B-52’s blared from his speakers. He was assured of find- ing plenty of monogrammed button-down shirts and grosegrain watchbands in the men’s department. Although the ‘Preppie Look’ was popular, the ‘true’ preps were few and far between. Beacher: A beacher could usually be identified by his tan as well as his clothes. The average beacher came to school dressed in one of his twenty-eight OP T- shirts. Occassionally he may have worn something by Mr. Zogg, Town and Country, or Lightning Bolt. A great place for him to stock up on his wardrobe was the Mandalay Surf Shop which not only carried all the above T-shirts but also stocked Bucci sung- lasses and Boggie Boards. As most beachers walked through the halls with their G S stickers firmly attached to their one and only folder, visions of scuba diving and the next issue of Surfer magazine floated through their minds. Voguette: A Voguette was, quite simply, someone who appeared to have just stepped Some students prefered the more casual dress.

Yet only a small portion of the students spent their lunch hour in the cafeteria. Common places for the students to spend lunch time were the hallways, the library, the courtyard, and local fast food restaurants. Some students didn’t like the cafeteria food, while others stayed away for other reasons. “I just sit around by the library and talk to my friends dur- ing lunch, ’’said senior Kim Henry. Probably the most common thing to do during lunch break was to simply roam around the halls. This was an ex- cellent opportunity for students with un- matching schedules to see one another, as well as a perfect chance to sip on a milkshake. Mark Harvey, a senior stat- ed, “Every day I run by the lunchroom and pick me up about three shakes, and go sit with all my friends on the rails by C-mall. Some more serious students took full advantage of their 30 minute lunch break and studied hard in the library. Of course, some library regulars simply en- joyed it as a quiet air-conditioned place to relax. Whatever the reason, though, the library had many lunch time regu- lars, and a few other frequent visitors. Although the school officially operat- ed under a closed campus policy, many students swarmed to the local restau- rants as well as the bagel shop every day. Sue Griscavage, a sophomore said, “My friends and I go out to McDonald’s every day. It beats eating the school food any day.” Most students who weren’t caught the first time soon left frequently. Of course, there was a fair amount who ate in the cafeteria regularly. “I eat in the cafeteria. Heh, if you’re hungry, you’ll eat,” said Kim Don, a senior. It seemed, though, that the number of students not in the cafeteria outweighed the number of those who were.

David Aronoff enjoys his job stringing tennis rackets at sports Un- limited. Many students found jobs during the sum- mer and earned money for thier social life.

It All Pays Off Y ou work hard with one or more people telling you what to do. Your hours are long, and you lack time to go out. You come home tired, badly needing rest. Why? That’s simple enough. For the money. Actually, students worked for many rea- sons. Some worked simply for the money, some for the experience, and some to be with working friends during summer vaca- tion. “I enjoy working with my friends and having the money to go out on the week- ends,” remarked senior Dennis Garcia. Students with summer jobs worked in various types of establishments. The most common were surely the fast food restau- rants and the grocery stores. These busin- esses offered many jobs with good hours and convenient locations to young people. “I work in a large restaurant. With so many employees I can practically pick the hours I want,” stated Junior Ron Ventura. Along side the workers who punched a time clock were the lawn mowers, babysit- ters, car waxers, and those who just did odd jobs. This was excellent for those students with very minimal free time who just need- ed a little bit of extra spending money. “I just do weeding in a garden, but I like it because I get good money tax free, and I am in complete control of my hours,” stated another senior. Most reasons for working were different in each student employee, but the number one incentive remained constant among all.

Western day, preppy day, and sophistication day were different ways in which the students dis- played their individuality and school spirit. With the sounds of the drums beating throughout the halls early Friday morning, many students were dismissed from class. The Tornado marching band fired up the school spirit with hopes of a successful homecoming. Crepe paper, balloons, and posters was a familiar sight upon arriving to school on October 22. Many different clubs partici- pated in decorating the halls of C.H.S. The Tornadoettes received first place for the second year in a row. The junior class and S.G.A. tied for second with the Latin club placing third. Students were dismissed early Friday afternoon. The homecoming court and floats cruised around the track with the band leading the way. From there, they were police-escorted in the annual parade through downtown Clearwater. A very tasty recipe.

Here Carol Rhody accepts the traditional crown and rose from captain Joe Casal. The Go-Gos made instant hits out of their sim- ple but catchy tunes. This seemed the perfect music for the Tornadoettes to perform to. Yvonne Noh, Cindy Acker, and Linda Polumbo have got the beat. The j.v. cheerleaders proved that they could not only cheer, but dance, and dance very well. Lisa Tillery and Susan Bush perform to the tune of “Pac Man Fever” The Night Before T onight was the night, and everyone was psyched up. As the band entered, a hush fell over the stadium. Tonight was Tornado Tales. Tonight the Homecoming queen was to be announced. Tonight was the time for everyone to show their stuff. Wendell Williams, president of S.G.A., introduced the nominees for the court. Afterwards things started to roll. As the Tornadoettes showed “they had the beat”, to the popular song, “We got the Beat”, Windsong went back to the Beach Boys with “Surfing U.S.A.” The J.V. cheer- leaders showed the Hudson Cobras how to play Pac-Man and the Headliners dreamed about the sandman bringing them a dream boy. The drama, Latin, French, and math clubs all presented skits to build up the morale of this homecoming event. The fea- ture, Newsbreak, from the T.V. hit show “Saturday Night Live”, was also presented by Dan Farrell, Nancy Fein, and Valerie George, all reporting the latest gossip. As the skits came to an end the football team was introduced. The crowd grew rest- less. It was now the time to announce the 1982-1983 Homecoming Court. The court began with freshman Jamie Gelep, and sophomores Lisa Keech and Ashley Strauss. The chosen juniors were Hazel An- derson, Vicky Frost, and Amy Zedan. After the underclassmen were announced, breathes were held and stomachs tensed. The senior court was to be announced. Ka- tie Abbitt, Colleen Hynds, Jamie Keyser, Kristy Kueber, Karen Murray, Carolyn Pe- dulla, and Carol Rohdy were the chosen seven. The final moment arrived. Mr. Coe pulled the envelope from his pocket. The 1982-1983 Homecoming queen was an- nounced. Carol Rohdy was presented with the traditional red cape and roses. Football captain Joe Casal placed the crown on Car- ol along with the customary kiss. Tornado Tales was a night of suprises, and everyone was eagerly awaiting home- coming night. ▼ Being chosen as an escort is almost as much of an honor as being chosen for court.

October 22nd — Homecoming — was a night never to be forgotten. As cloudy skies set in, a parachutist fell from above. Rain was forecasted for the evening. The Tornado football team exploded onto the field with one thought on their mind, winning. “Conquer the Cobras”, was declared the theme for the homecoming game. And conquer they did. At the end of the fourth quarter, the scoreboard pro- claimed, Clearwater 61 — Hudson 0.” Halftime — the highlight of the evening. While the band played the song “Tomor- row”, each court member was introduced. After a somber and decorous salutation by ROTC members the court took their place in line. The last and perhaps most important court member was driven around the track. Carol Rhody, homecoming queen, was then met by her escort, Mike Whitehurst. The culminating event of the evening was the dance. Sponsored by SGA, the dance was held in the gymnasium after the game. A live disc jockey, dim lights, and loud music were all part of the dance and com- bined made it a success. Despite the deluge of rain, the dance’s large turnout proved that the weather had not dampened the spectacular homecoming spirit. ▼ By Carolyn Pedulla 22 Homecoming Night Carol Rohdy is as happy as any girl can be as the J.R.O.T.C.’s ceremony centers around her, the homecoming queen, and her escort, Mike Whitehurst.

Tim Perrott shows high school rockers wha, guitar playing is all about as his fingers fly up and down the neck and “Freebird” pours froc the speakers.

The quality of a drummer often makes or breaks a band. Frank Stewart cooks off Alex Van Halen’s part in “Jamie’s Cryin’” as if it were nothing at all. 24 Student Court -vl 6 V X! Crankin’ it Out T he house lights are down; the stage lights are bright; guitar-oriented Rock- n-Roll cranks from the speakers; and the young, wild crowd screams for more. This event was just like a typical rock concert except that it was planned completely by CHS students. Gerry Tsicos led the way in planning the music festival. He brought the bands to- gether, obtained use of the Clearwater Mu- sic Hall, and organized the event. The show consisted of four bands, two of which were led by Clearwater High stu- dents. Artists participated in the event for various reasons. Tim Perott, lead guitarist of his own band, commented, “I play for the sheer intensity of rockin’ and rollin’ and for The break between performances was a good time to get up and get a Coke or stretch one’s legs. Those wishing to relax watched the stage hands setting up for the next show. the excitement of persuading a guitar to scream for vengeance.” Playing between the student rock groups were soloists play- ing acoustic guitars and singing. Gerry Tsi- cos highlighted his clean vocals by playing some fancy notes on his harmonica. The Rock-n-Roll High School festival proved not only a good time for the audi- ence, but an excellent experience for those in the bands needing exposure and a good place to jam. Although the groups weren’t well known and the concert hall wasn’t full, the atmosphere wasn’t far from that of a big name concert, and much talent was shown off. ▼ By Jeff Samsel Student Concert 25 B. Ashbrook The Rock-n-Roll Ultimate F ifty thousand tiny lights flicker, almost lighting Orlando’s Tangerine Bowl. The wild crowd roars, entranced by The Who’s first rate show. The devoted fans won’t let up until Pete Townshend and company re- turn to the stage and close the show. On their final tour, The Who brought central Florida what many considered to be the show of a lifetime. “It was a flawless concert,” stated senior Scott Nigels. 18,000 tickets were available to the Tampa Bay area, and the first 13,000 went first day tickets were on sale. The remaining 5,000 were sold within 2 weeks by mail. The Who wasn’t the only major concert to hit the Tampa Bay area, though. The Bayfront Center, The Lakeland Civic Cen- ter and vario us other smaller concert halls hosted shows by first rate artists for music fans of all types. Some concerts attended by many students were Billy Joel, Cheap Trick, The Go-Gos and Flock of Seagulls, Kenny Rogers, and Hank Williams Junior. Some students would travel many miles to see certain shows. Gary Connors, who trav- eled all the way to Ft. Meyers to see Ted Nugent, stated, “The intensity of the show was worth the distance traveled.” Despite the fact that concerts cost an average of $10.50, plus gas and various oth- er expenses, many students found them more than worth the amount of money spent. Geary Peters explains, “It is so excit- ing to see your favorite artists up close per- forming the songs that you love, and to see them as real people through their move- ments and facial expressions.” Other stu- dents went for the light and stage shows, the excitement of a good show, or simply for an excellent night out. Every concert is as individual as each member of the audience, and those parts which are unique to each top notch show will remain a part of each and every fan for a long time to come. ▼ by Jeff Samsel 26 Concerts I Want My MTV: I want my MTV” is almost a cliche to most young people. MTV, or music television, added a new dimension to music enjoyment across the country. By simply flipping on cable chan- nel 45, one could not only hear, but see his favorite rock-n-roll artists. MTV linked ra- dio and television to form an unbeatable media for rock fans and new wavers alike. After students began discovering MTV, the word spread fast, and the demand for 60 channel cable hookups skyrocketed. Some went as far as getting a full stereo hookup for their MTV. Students watched MTV for hours and hours on end, hoping to catch clips of their favorite rock-n-roll artists. Students waited patiently for rock groups such as The Rolling Stones, The Who, Journey, and Styx, but these videos were scattered between clumps of new wave. After repeated playing of the new wave tunes, they began sinking into the brains of students and the unique form of music be- gan to catch on. This is how the trend be- gan. Instead of a group of noncomformists, the new wave crowd became a flock of trend following “bee-bops” and rock fans enlight- ened by the change of pace. Students went for the new wave for many reasons. Robby Wallace commented, “I like new wave as something different. Simple enough, it’s fun.” As the new wave in music strengthened in popularity, groups who were before looked down upon as outcasts, (such as Adam Ant and Devo) soared in popularity, receiving airtime on rock radio stations and selling out local concert halls. Also selling out concerts and soaring to the top of re- cord charts were some new groups intro- duced by MTV such as Men at Work and Missing Persons. Often confused with new wave was the ever-lasting punk. James Stevenson ex- plained a few of the differences between punk and new wave. “While punk is violent, political, and guitar-oriented, new wave shows a lighter, more fun attitude and is oriented to the keyboards.” John Frieder- ich stated, “Punk is not all violence and destruction. This is often used to get peo- ple’s attention. Punk is based on political values and opinions.” Although true “punkers” represented a small portion of the students, those students were very de- voted to their music. Along with the “new wavers” and the “punkers” were of course the classic rock fans. These students stuck with the radio and their own carefully selected albums, Despite the new trends, the classic rock re- mained on top for many. Although some students showed in most every type of music, new wave was most notable because of its sudden surge to the top. And responsible for this, of course, MTV.

Ashbrook MTV 20 Not Just Something To Do G oing to the movies; just something to do? No, not anymore. Due to the rising price of movies and the recent installation of cable to most areas zoned for Clearwater High, students visited the theaters less frequently, and were more careful in choosing which movie to see. Brent Peters explains, “Since the installa- tion of cable, I don’t spend my money on the movies unless it is something I would really like to see.” Going to the movies was no longer a mere excuse to go out. Despite the drop in the frequency of at- tendance, movies still brought in their share of dollars. Some of this years top box office smashes were E.T., An Officer and a Gentleman , and Rocky III. Although cer- tain movies were able to sell out any time of the day, the most tickets were sold on week- end nights, and the numbers of people rose as the night went on. For those who considered the $3.50 to $4.50 movie ticket just too much, the the- aters offered many inflation fighting spe- cials. Students could attend AMC theaters for $3.00 by flashing their student discount card, or simply by attending shows before 6:00 or at midnight. For those really looking to save money, the drive-ins showed two to four movies a night for $1.50. The Carib also showed top rate films for 99c until it went out of business in the early part of the year. New to the AMC theaters this year were the midnight flicks. Anna Bergston, man- ager at Clearwater 4 theaters commented, “Although midnight movies rarely sell out, they are really excellent for bringing in the high school age crowd.” This is due not only to the time of the shows, but to the type of movies played. This included classic rock films, comedies, and horrors. Of Course Sunshine Mall continued to play the ever- classic horror, comedy, musical The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Rocky Horror was presented every weekend for the fourth year straight. This was the classic chance to really get into the show by dancing and singing along. This loose atmosphere was what had kept it alive over the years. Despite the coming of cable and the high prices of movies students continued to at- tend movies. It wasn’t just considered a reg- ular thing to do. ▼ by Jeff Samsel 30 Movies amsel ock irse rer- cky [ was I rth e to md was Some true Rocky Horror horrors would join the cast in dancing to the musical numbers.

Running Errands Deople had a hard time signing up for A classes this year because with already overloaded academic classes they weren’t willing to add on by taking a complicated elective. Most people found a way around taking another hard course by becoming a student aide. Among the student aides’ chores were taking attendance, grading papers, running errans, and just being there to help the teacher in any way they could. This sounds simple but it wasn’t to the aide. Sometimes the errands were on the other side of the school and after a few errands it got tiring. Other times there was nothing to do at all but listen to the lecture along with the stu- dents in the class. “Being a student aide gave me the chance to get to know the teachers better and have fun with them,” said Peggy Nyland. The students were valuable to the teach- ers. Often they cut the time for grading pa- pers in half and doing tedious errands that the teacher was unable to do. “Student aides graded papers and made up test s, which helped me and let me attend to the students,” stated Mr. Chancey. ▼ By Anne Sunne Student assistant classes were often the clas- sic chance to catch up on piled up work.

Once these words were stated, the response was simply a game of chance. Answers could vary from a phony sound- ing excuse, to a flat no, to an acceptance. The answer which was frustating to many was the “maybe”. This left students hang- ing, waiting for an answer. After this all-important task was taken care of, it was all much easier. Other factors in going out were money, transportation, and a good place to go. Some popular places were Bennigan’s, Chi-Chi’s and Holiday Inn Surfside. Spencer Geren stated, “Ka- ren Murray and I spend a lot of time at the beach. That is kind of our place.” Other students went for classy restau- rants such as Crawdaddy’s or the 94th Aero Squadron. Many students were happy just being together. These students spent some time at the fancy restaurants and other times at the movies, or at each others’ house. Whatever the occasion, dating couples managed to enjoy their outings together. By Jeff Samsel Dating 35 For most people lunch consisted of going to the cafeteria for the special of the day. But others, like Tom Warren, headed home for a quick meal. To avoid the hazards of everyday school lunch, some students choose to eat their lunch at fast food joints. Chris Beauvelt, Linda Gob- beo and friends, break the off campus law and eat their lunch at McDonalds. 36 Off Campus Across the Street r ■ lime and time again, the phrase was re- peated: “Clearwater High School has a closed campus policy.” Each day, however, arrays of students would flock off campus to 7-11, the Bagel Shop, Burger King, and other local establishments. Out of ten students interviewed, eight had been off campus this year, and none of them had any inhibitions about leaving. Students went off campus for various rea- sons. Some liked the chance to go out with their school friends, while others liked the food at local restaurants or simply didn’t like the cafeteria. Probably the most common trip taken off campus was a “bagel run.” Students went for bagels not only during lunch, but all day long. One teacher, who cared to remain nameless, admitted, “I have written stu- dents passes to go get bagels for my stu- dents and myself.” Many students enjoyed the chance to go out with “school friends” whom they might not see otherwise. One sophomore stated, “I have a few friends who live where it is not convenient for us to see each other outside of school. So we go out for lunch, and in some way it is better than being together in the cafeteria or courtyard.” Another common place to spend lunch was at home or at a friend’s home. Students living near school were often served lunch at home everyday. Others simply opened a can of spaghetti or whipped up a ham sand- wich. Either way, no other place provided a better thirty minute escape from school than home. So, despite the “enforced rule” of closed campus and the “campus cop” patrolling each corner of the school, students casually strolled off campus, and only a few were caught. ▼ By Jeff Samsel To grab a quick bite to eat students often left campus.

The fisherman almost be- comes a part of the natural environment as he quietly casts towards the swaying reeds. These ideal conditions brought many stu- dents out to Lake Tarpon or Lake Seminole in pursuit of the ultimate gamefish. Of course, many young people were drawn to the great outdoors by more than the quest for a largemouth bass. Others found outdoor entertainment through camping, hunting, hiking and canoeing. Each one of these pursuits allowed students to enjoy the peace of nature and the chance to get away from school and home. Some students took great interest in hunting. This proved not only a test of skill and a great sports challenge, but like any other outdoor sport it included the natural variable of the animals. Another popular form of outdoor enter- tainment was hiking. Following the trails of the Hillsborough River and the Alafia Riv- er, students blazing trails through heavy woods and peaceful fields alike enjoyed the sounds of the animal life, the fresh scent of the blossoming flowers, and the pleasing sights of nature. Another way to spend an afternoon with nature was to go canoeing. Students not having canoes or access to canoes found rental spots at camps or parks. Students who canoed enjoyed the physical challenge of maneuvering the craft as well as the chance to be close to life. Camping proved the ultimate in outdoor fun, because students on a camping trip could enjoy hunting, canoeing, hiking, and of course fishing while on the trip. In all of these ways, students found great pleasure in getting together and taking ad- vantage of the great outdoors. ▼ By Jeff Samsel r I a 1 o I iX ■ B r ' All coi act Jot sm 38 Outdoors •I Samsel Is of Jiv- savy the it of sing vith not and ints nge the oor ;rip md eat ad- Fishing trips often proved quite relaxing and an excellent opportunity to be with friends.

For most students this was a great chance to get away and simply relax. But for many it was very difficult to get back in the grind after such an extended break. Most students didn’t mind being back in school, but had trouble getting up and stay- ing up. Tyra Crane stated, “During the va- cation I would often sleep ’til noon and once until 2:00.” Many students also stayed out late every night of the week, and all the missed sleep hit them when school started up again. Some lucky students found a very special way to spend their vacation. They traveled north for a white Christmas. Jackie Arnold, who flew to Ohio to be with her family and friends and enjoy the snow, stated, “It was so great seeing my old friends again and spending my Christmas up North that it was very hard for me to return to the Flor- ida sun.” Of course, the idea of returning to school was greeted with mixed emotions. Anne Sa- bin stated, “I didn’t like having to do home- work after two weeks off, but I enjoyed coming back, because it gave me the chance to be with my friends again.” Homework was surely the toughest thing to return to. Students with long-term pro- jects such as term papers fell behind on their research class. In one Composition II class, all but two members of the class ad- mitted to not opening a book for their term papers during the break. Other students simply got out of the habit of doing work. So Christmas vacation was a great chance to stay out late, sleep late, and do no work, but many formed habits which had to be broken quickly when school started up again. ▼ By Jeff Samsel Starting Up Again l After returning to school after a long vaca- tion, David Maas couldn’t get back into the swing of things.

What did all of these school organizations have in common? They all took at least one major trip as a group, as did most every other organized group in the school. Every year the varsity basketball team and stat girls packed up and headed to Ocala for the Kingdom of the Sun Tourna- ment. In the spring, the publications staffs were off to South Carolina for the big jour- nalism convention. For the Latin Club, it was off to, of course, the Latin Convention, and for the N.F.L. , it was Tallahassee for the state debate tournament. The list went on and on. For most groups these trips included three to five nights in a hotel, some type of club related activity, and many miles trav- eled. As well as being a great chance to get away from home, and sometimes school, long term trips were a great chance to be with many other students with similar in- terests. These trips also gave students the chance to compete with others in their field, and see how their club compared with clubs from other schools. Of course, trips weren’t lacking in good times. Students had a lot of free time and many chances to go out as friends without chaperones. Laura Samsel said, “The Ocala trip was great; we all really had a lot of fun.” Another type of school-related trip was the field trip. This year, the field trip was more popular than ever before. This was due to one trip taken by a very large portion of the school, EPCOT, of course. Mr. Gliha led his marine biology classes down to the water to collect specimans on more than one occasion. Although both field trips and long trips to some were just a chance to get away from parents and school, to others these trips were great fun and an excellent learning experience, v By Jeff Samsel School Trips 43 An annual trip made by the publications staffs is the journalism convention held in South Carolina.

What do all of these items have in common? The answer to the question above is quite obvious to many, while others remain con- fused. The answer is that all of these events were major criteria for Dave Werder, the pole man, to return to society from his ref- uge on the pole. The man, whose rest upon his perch began in early November, spent his days sleeping, entertaining visitors, and constructing his masterpiece. The addition of a polesitter to Clear- water’s Jersey Jim Tower’s parking lot proved completely unique to Pinellas coun- ty history. This uniqueness brought human interest to Dave, and every day at the base of the pole, Dave’s friends and enemies alike would park their cars to talk to him. A good portion of Dave’s visitors, many students at Clearwater, came to keep Dave company, or even to harass him. They sim- ply came to hangout. Especially in the be- ginning, the pole was a great novelty spot to cruise up to, crank up the radio, sit back, talk to Dave a little, and possibly meet some new friends. Dave always used visitors as an opportu- nity to state his feelings on everything from the people talking to him to heavy political issues. Dave enjoyed explaining the advan- tages of being on a pole. He often told peo- ple, “I like being on top of this pole because when the cars go by I can’t see the peoples’ faces but I am at a perfect angle to see the girls’ legs”. So when he will come down, nobody knows, but as long as he remains he will draw attention because of the unique qual- ity of his undertaking. ▼ By Jeff Samsel Under Pressure pRESSURE— not just the title of Billy Joel’s smash hit tune and video, but a term relating to every single student of Clearwater High School in some way, shape, or form. Pressure from a number of different sources afflicted students. Students re- ceived the most pressure from parents, school, and work. Students experienced pressure to achieve, pressure to do a better job at work, and of course, pressure to be- have in a certain way from parents and peers alike. A certain amount of pressure to achieve existed in most students. This pressure, however, varied not only in intensity, but in O where one’s interests were placed. To many, achieving in athletics proved the guiding V ight to their existence. Some, on the other anc strived to achieve academically. Fi- nally, some students needed to excel in all fields, while others were satisfied to relax, not worrying about outstanding achieve- ment. Another common form of pressure, often pushing in two or more directions, was the pressure to act a certain way. This pressure came from parents and friends alike. Al- though many students accepted one an- other as they were, others expected their friends to conform to their standards. Of- ten this peer pressure would directly com- bat the code of behavior instilled by one’s parents in the past. This left students with many difficult decisions. Most students with high goals, busy schedules, strict parents, or selective friends had to learn to deal with pressure, f By Jeff Samsel Another type of pressure afflicting certain students was deadline pressure.

Joe Andriola and Joe Alexander weave their way through parked cars in near darkness en route to campus. 48 Transportation Getting There With Style T Then Monday morning arrived, stu- dents suprisingly found their way back to school, ready to start a new week. There were many different ways the stu- dents at CHS transported themselves to school each morning. “My father drives me to school and also picks me up. He owns his own business so it doesn’t really interfere with his job,” stated freshman Paula Casey. Every morning eleven buses dropped stu- dents off for another day of classes. To many students there was no alternative to bus riding. “On the Bellair bus you can’t even sit down, it’s so crowded,” said fresh- man Tasha Smith. Students that rode the bus knew they had to be on time to catch their ride. “If I get up a couple of minutes late then I miss my ride to school,” stated senior Greg Twardokus. The parking lot at CHS held 290 cars. Approximately 264 parking permits were sold to student drivers. Each student driv- ing their car to school was required to pur- chase a parking permit for five dollars. “I got a warning for not having a parking per- mit. I really didn’t pay much attention to it,” said senior Yvonne Noh. The second time this happened, the student would be rook assigned to work detail. This often meant cleaning the bathrooms or sweeping the halls after school hours. With the price of gas skyrocketing, it was common to find many students either walk- ing to school or riding their bikes. “I can leave my house at 7:35 and still make it to school on time. I only live across the street,” explained freshman Mike Harder.

Some opted for school lunches, some for school lunches, some for no lunch at all and the daring left campus for lunch.

Classes Division 51 A. Dibiberti On Being a Senior “Being a senior is the opening of new ho- rizons that need to be explored.” —Mark Burton Heading For the Top M oney. Everybody needs it. The problem was how to raise it. The senior class officers, President James McArthur, Vice President Andrew Bil- liris, Secretary Harvey West, and Trea- surer Olga Athanasiou, found a way for the senior class to make money for help- ing the community and putting together fun activities. The class of ’83 blasted off to a great start by selling many products. At the first of the year the class sold M Ms. Then they moved on to sell buttons, bumperstickers, T-shirts and balloons at the Largo game. They had a reason for raising this money and it involved the community. The city has a new park called Mocca- sin Lake, for which the senior class don- ated an aquarium from the money they raised during the year. The class also helped the Key Club pay for the murals on the outside of the gym. Community involvement was a key goal of the senior class. Andrew Billiris, vice president, gave his opinion on these activities, “I believe that when you become active in the community and try to help the school, you’re showing real spirit, which is important if you want to be a leader.” The senior class officers also arranged and participated in many fun events. These activities included going to the newly opened E.P.C.O.T. Center at Dis- ney World, taking part in Senior Week, adventuring on the high seas on the se- nior cruise, and doing an all nighter at Disney World for Grad night. With all of these plans in motion throughout the year, the senior class offi- cers maintained a schedule to meet every second, third, and fourth Thursday of the month in order to arrange the details and organize the senior class to get things accomplished. The officers worked together and helped the class of ’83 achieve the expec- tations of the school and the community. They were the future leaders of our na- tion. ▼ by Anne Sunne Helping to raise money for community ser- vice projects was a goal of the seniors.

It was, for at least a few students who took classes at night school and earned enough credits to graduate early. To be considered for early graduation, students needed a valid reason. Wanting to get a full time job to earn money to- ward college was not a good reason. Of- fice administrator Mrs. Elaine Jablonski stated, “The reason for this is because you lose all your practice at being a stu- dent, and you won’t have enough self control once you get into college to sit down and study for hours at a time.” Although early graduation might be a student’s dream, it was not as easy as it sounded. One had to attend night classes at SPJC or at the Clearwater Adult night school. During one’s four years in high school, the student could not have failed a semester in any subject. “The main reason to graduate early is to further our education,” said Heidi and Lisa Buettner, who attended the spring semester at SPJC. Michelle Gilby stated, “I am graduat- ing early so I can get a head start at the University of Georgia, and I will have a better opportunity to get into my chosen career.” Graduating early deprived students of their senior activities, but some students had different views. Michelle stated, “I am not going to miss the senior activities since I am allowed to come back for them if I don’t pick up my diploma in Janu- ary.” Heidi summed it up when she said, “Would you like to have a little fun now, or would you rather start a career early?” ▼ by Mark Englander Scott Bentzel Andrew Billiris Kim Black Wayne Blackburn Rob Blackert Debby Blackham Elton Blanchard Chris Blauvelt Joe Bloznalis Cindy Boswell Dayna Boudreau Karen Boulware Ron Bowers Angelia Bradford Tondra Bradford Randy Breece Doug Brittain William Brockway Tamela Brooks Doug Brown 54 Seniors On Being a Senior “Being a senior is looking forward to a start on life.” — Rick O’Dowd Discussing early graduation plans with Michelle Gilby are Lisa and Heidi Buettner.

While all team members were tal- ented, there was one person who united the players into one body. This person was the team captain. Most team captains were seniors. This is because they had been on the team for four years, and they were more exper- ienced than the younger athletes. Some say being captain was not too easy. Brad Ashbrook, cross country co-cap- tain, said his job could have been made easier if everyone had worked together a little more. “The team spirit also could be much higher than it is,” he added. The cross country runners practiced hard ev- eryday, “but I think they still could do a better job than they have been”, he said. There were plenty of tasks for the cap- tains to maintain. One, sometimes not so easy, job was to help keep the players in order. Keith Batten, also a cross country co-captain, said, “Sometimes they goof off when they shouldn’t, so I have to keep them in line.” Another duty of the captains was to get the team psyched for their games and to get everyone to have the ambition to win. “I have to get them all revved up,” said Steve Hand. Steve acted as captain for the golf team. “The younger golfers have so much more enthusiasm than the older players,” mentioned Steve. The golfers took their irons out to the range about twice a week and practiced for about three hours a week and practiced for about three hours each time. Volleyball captain B.J. McCauley, like all the others, helped to keep all players in order and to get the team ready for their games. B.J. commented, “This year’s volleyball team is the most spirit- ed team in the four years I’ve been here. That’s what we need for our school.” B.J., also on the basketball, softball, and track team, said, “I really enjoyed being volleyball captain this year. It was a lot of fun.” The captains could always be heard shouting loudly at the team. They were not necessarily scolding the team, but were actually doing their job as captain. The players appreciated them for achieving their goal of uniting the whole team as one and getting the players ready for each game. “The whole team greatly appreciates the enthusiasm of the captain to raise team spirit,” said Cindy Jensen, volleyball player, v by Cindy Thompson Kristen Cahill Mike Callahan Cynthia Campbell Jim Campbell Sonya Campbell Nathan Cansler Chris Capogna Rebecca Carlson Denise Caron Anita Carrieri Vera Carson Joseph Carwise Joseph Casal Sheri Case Jeff Cesta 56 Seniors MJ On Being a Senior “The best thing about being a senior is knowing that I made it all this way.” — Cherie Dehkes Bumping the ball over the net, team captain Valerie George scores another point for the Tornadoes.

Cannaday Work experience provides an excellent ca- reer background, as Winfred Worlds dis- covers. New Dimensions T he time had come. The most crucial decision in the life of a senior had to be made. Although many doors opened for students after completion of high school, the two most common choices were college or a career. Many steps were involved in becoming a college bound student. First, one had to complete a number of college preparato- ry courses while in high school. For ex- ample, a college bound student took four years of science as opposed to the re- quired two years. Next, a variety of tests were taken to determine one’s ability to do college work. The SAT, ACT, and PSAT were a few of these examinations. The next step for seniors was applying to the college of their choice. This was, perhaps, the most difficult decision. To help students learn more about various universities, representatives came to St. Pete Junior College on Wednesday, October 13. Harvard, Prin- ceton, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale were a few of the colleges represent- ed. “I really enjoyed college night,” stat- ed senior Regi O’Brien. “I wasn’t really sure where I wanted to go to school, and it helped me to narrow my choices.” Applications were mailed sometimes a year in advance. College hopefuls checked the mail eagerly until the await- ed reply finally arrived. A letter of accep- tance brought sighs of relief and joy, while letters of rejection were tossed in file thirteen as the seniors returned to the drawing board. The fields career-bound students chose were varied. There were those who chose a job with some type of training, while others chose a job which needed no formal education. Whether it was college or a job, seniors showed that they were old and wise enough to choose the career of their c choice.

You stand looking at the sight with sweat running down your tense muscular body, and say to yourself, “Aww-right,” ' cause you’re the Freestyle kid. Freestyle windsurfing, that is. This sport has become more popular summer by summer. The beach was full of stu- dents last summer practicing how to bal- ance on the board, how to ride the waves, and other windsurfing techniques. This is the number one sport around,” said senior Linda White. Linda started windsurfing two years ago and she found that windsurfing was a real great water sport. She added, “It’s a great way to get away for awhile. I just set up my board and go, and stay out for a few hours.” Another windsurfer was Julie Aguera. Julie had practiced this sport for about four years. Julie’s hard work and dedica- tion really helped in her competitions. Julie had been in state, national, region- al and world-wide competitions. She also added “I’ve been all around Florida, Mexico, California, Italy, Michigan, and many places around the world.” Julie practiced 2 to 3 days a week. Windsurfing took time and talent. Ju- lie stated, “It was pretty hard for me to learn, and balance was the hardest part.” Everyone knew that it took time. “You’re just surfing in the wind; it’s great!” Julie added. ▼ By Kim Johnson and Cindy Thompson Seniors 61 On Being a Senior “Being a senior is everything everyone ever said it was.” — John Verano 62 Seniors While generously donating blood, Renee Dee tries to relax at the Hunter Blood Cen- ter.

This was one of the many excuses given to squirm out of giving blood. Yet even with these fears, the senior class still managed to keep the tradition of the high school blood drive that started seven years ago with the Hunter Blood Center. The seniors never knew just how much they were helping the community when they contributed to the Blood Center. Past surveys proved that the high school drive supplied 10% of the total blood needs of the area. There were only a few simple require- ments for giving a chance at life to some- one in need. First, the student must weigh 110 pounds or more. Second, they must be seventeen years or older. Third, the student must care. With two blood drives this year there was a large turn out of students who cared. This kind of caring proved that the community was receiving some re- sponsible and charitable young adults who will carry their weight and fit into society. ▼ by Anne Sunne Amy Greibler Pete Guetzloe Daniel Gulkis Michelle Gulley Peter Gurian Connie Haag Christina Haas Kenzel Hagaman Ann Hall Donna Hall Cliff Hallmark Eric Hambleton Steve Hand Darlene Hansford Linda Harris Deborah Harrison David Hart Mark Harvey Steven Hastings Julie Hatcher Seniors 63 Cruising the Caribbean I magine yourself cruising aboard a lux- ury liner on the Gulf of Mexico through the Yucatan Straight and into Mexico’s Caribbean Riviera. Imagine the fun you would have snorkeling or scuba diving while you discover crystal waters teeming with multicolored tropical fish. No, this is not your typical Love Boat episode — this is your senior high school cruise. Every year during spring break stu- dents from across the world left school and jobs behind for a week of fun and adventure. This year the students packed their bags, boarded the Veracruz and took off in hopes of a relaxing yet memorable 7 day cruise. “The first time I heard about the se- nior cruise was during my sophomore year. Ever since then I’ve been saving my money,” said senior Carla Shano. Other students worked part-time jobs in order to afford the cruise. To several seniors it was an early graduation gift. The cruise as a whole cost each stu- dent $440.00 A fifty dollar deposit was due in January. One of the many places the students visited was Cancun. Cancun is a tiny is- land of golden, powdery sand, carved out of Yucatan’s Continental Shelf by the northward flowing Gulf Stream. Cancun has gained a worldwide reputation as one of the finest beach resorts in the Carib bean. In cooperation with Mr. Steve Gera kios and Lindsay Travel the past 3 trip have been a success. “Each year mor and more students are getting involvec It’s very exciting and a great way to mee people from as far as England.” As we as a social event it is very educational, said Mr. Steve Gerakios.

Why, Burger King, of course! Out of 70 seniors sur- veyed, 43 preferred Burger King over McDonalds, which had 16 votes, and Rax, which had 11 votes. As the over- whelming winner in a food survey con- ducted by the Aqua Clara, the secret to Burger King’s success was sought. Ac- cording to Connie Bunker, it was that “you can get your burger any way you want, and they flame broil their burg- ers.” Bob Parajon agreed, “The quality of the food is better.” Fast food establishments were not Battles only on the minds of seniors who left campus for lunch, but were also on the minds of most of the nation. Commeri- cals run by Burger King during the “Great Burger War” of the fall, claimed their superiority over their competitors. This sent the opposition up in arms and Burger King to court. The controversial commercials caused a great deal of dis- cussion and amusement among the view- ing public, particularly when a court rul- ing allowed the commercials to continue.

One was an unusual weariness during lectures. Another was an urge to go out and party instead of studying. All seniors got these symptoms sometime during their final year; it was only a matter of time. In fact some underclassmen al- ready were showing these signs by Spring. The disease? Senioritis. What were most seniors thinking of the first day of school? The last day of school. The first sign of senioritis, was when the senior began to add up the days up to June 9. That 180 school days, or 284 days including holidays and week- ends. On that first day, August 30, the countdown began. One reason for a senior’s bowing to senioritis was college. A student looked forward to college so much that high school lost its significance. His school work fell off, and his grades dropped. Also, a lot of seniors contracted this dreaded disease during the second se- mester. This can be called the “I made it” syndrome. By then most seniors had applied to colleges and had been ad- mitted. This left the student in the awk- ward position of having a semester in high school that didn’t really matter, as long as he graduated. The student was so relieved “he made it”, he let up in May and June. How could one spot a senior suffering from senioritis? At a quick glance, he was the one slumped over in his seat with his head on the desk. Most students suf- fering from senioritis couldn’t concen- trate long enough on the teacher to ab- sorb anything, so he turned to other di- vertisments. Sleeping was the most popular choice here. Daydreaming was another favorite. Another sign was the senior’s grades beginning to fall. This was the result of the sleeping plus not doing homework, because he didn’t feel like it. This was when senioritis was most harmful. One had to be careful to keep his grades up, despite this affliction. As anyone can see, senioritis was a ma- jor part of being a senior. It meant trying to get the school year over with faster than it was possible. So, some advice to upcoming seniors: Beware, senioritis is a highly contagious disease. Be on the lookout for it during the final year of your high school career. ▼ by Tom Coffee Diane Lee Wayne Leidall Beth Lelekacs Kathy Leon Louise Liakakos Lesa Long Tom Loveland Sharon Lyons Susan Lyons David Macligan Sheila Madden Mary Mahairas Michael Marich Michael Markou Clifford Merle 68 Seniors On Being a Senior “The parties this year are great.” — George Vricos Finding new ways of goofing around is one of the symptoms of Senioritis.

Spirit ribbons and hats displayed support for the team. It was obvious to any visitor that spirit enveloped our school. Signs of spirit were both visible and audible. The band marched throughout the school halls. The cheerleaders posted signs everywhere. Spirit was demon- strated everywhere one looked. “When people ask me what I think of school spirit, I tell them it’s great to see students all dressed up in red and gray. When I see that, it gives me spirit also. I think people who don’t get involved in school activities are missing an awful lot. School spirit makes my day go a lot easi- er,” said senior Chris Labus. Most of the seniors had been attend- ing the same school since their freshmen year, but others started out elsewhere. Senior Heidi McElwel stated, “The spir- it in this school is wonderful! People real- ly show how much they want the team to win. I don’t go to too many school activi- ties, but from the ones I go to I have fun cheering right along wi th the rest of the crowd.” Varsity cheerleader, Carol Rhody thought school spirit was important for the teams, “They need to know that the students care about how they do, and support them whether they win or lose. If the team knows the people are really fired up for the games, then they will do better.” (con’t.) Posters often advertised upcoming football games.

I think the students showed their school spirit in many different ways. Our teams proved it by doing the great job they did,” said Carla Shano, senior. Dennis Garcia, another senior, said, “I believe as the years have gone by we’ve shown more and more school spirit.” T by Carolyn Pedulla On Being a Senior “It means a close to one phase of our life and the beginning of an exciting new phase as adults.” — Kelly Douglas Seniors 73 Kim Seither Carla Shano Robert Shaw Joe Shippole Kim Sinclair Bari Slavney Nick Sloan Valerie Sloan Larry Sly Earl Smith Julie Smith Kathy Smith Richard Soehner Lorraine Solenberger Diana Southern Paul Sowlis Paul Spenard Ralph Spencer Chandra Spicer Patti Staley Graduation means buying caps and gowns.

On Being a Senior “Being a senior means finally get- ting the respect of the teachers and enjoying every minute of it!” — Kristina Temme 74 Seniors mm Fitted for the Finish W hen one thought of graduation some of the first things that came to mind were Grad Night, senior prom and the senior class cruise. What one didn’t think of were motarboards and tassels. Not only were seniors forced to think about their caps and gowns, but they also had to decide what color they would be. This may not seem like a tough decision, but the fact that the seniors were allowed to choose the colors them- selves is a first. “Last year and this year are the first time I’ve let the kids pick the color,” said Mr. Gerakios. “I used to pick the same color two years in a row. I did that so if one kid graduates and has a brother or sister one year younger they can wear the same cap and gown.” Though this was a practical system which worked well, it didn’t provide each class of seniors with the uniqueness that they wanted. Seniors opted for red as the color that they would graduate in. “I’m glad we got to pick the color of the caps and gowns,” said Anette Stefanadis. “Even though only 100 seniors voted, I’m glad we had the choice.” The cost of a cap and gown this year came to $14, which included class dues. Seniors had from the first day of school until January 31 to purchase and get measured for their caps and gowns which they were constantly reminded to do ev- ery time they walked into the cafeteria. Certainly, the graduating class left CHS with a feeling of satisfaction and a bit more control over their special day than most classes had in past. Hopefully the practice of senior selection of color will become a tradition. ▼ by Sylvia James Laura Stasek Annette Stefanadis Lee Stewart Steve Stickler Polly Stoeff Amy Stourac Chris Strothman Robert Stuerman Maryann Sullivan Jay Summy Andre Talley Dana Tassone Eugene Taylor Jeorge Taylor William Taylor Kristina Temme Melissa Tench Kirk Thielke Cheryl Thomas Connie Thomas Seniors 75 Voting - The American Way V oting has become something of a lost art in America. This is an alarming statistic. Voting is a privilege, not a chore. The process of voting begins with voter registration. Seniors who were eli- gible had the opportunity to register here at school during the week of Sep- tember 13. Everyone has heard Mr. Gerakios say, “God bless American, the greatest na- tion on earth.” Why is this? It is because Americans have the right to elect their leaders, where in other countries their leaders are thrust upon them. To be eligi- ble to vote, the students must be 18 years of age and been living in the United States for one year. He must also be an American citizen. Mr. Gerakios has sponsored Voter Registration Week for the last 15 years. He said, “I am very happy to take this responsibility because I like to promote citizenship, patriotism, and student in- volvement in politics. After all, we will be turning our government over to all of the youth in the next ten years.” During the Voter Registration Week, 400 students and teachers registered to vote. The volunteers, from the Pinellas County Board of Elections, who worked to register these people, said, “We really enjoy coming up here and working with the Clearwater High students.” ▼ by Mark Englander and Tom Coffee Debbie Thomas Karen Thompson Mike Thompson Kerry Tomsic Elizabeth Tong Leanne Toole Sophia Torbert Lisa Totten Meghan Tottle Linda Toummia Kimberly Tretter Beth Trizis Jerry Tsikos Celia Tucker Douglas Tucker Cindee Umiker Kim Valentin Dean Van Buren Katalin Varga Nicole Varner U l 76 Seniors Rhonda Weddington Sue Wehinger Mark Weingarten Susan Weltmer Harvey West On Being a Senior u ‘Being a senior is like your final test be- fore becoming an adult.” — Daniel Hubbard George Vricos Karen Wacker Karen Wagner Christopher Walker George Walters Linda Wanzie Jada Waters David Watt Michael Way Dan Webb Gregory Vass Spiro Vassos Gina Velardocchia Laura Vella John Verano Registering to vote, Michelle Gilby demon- strates her patriotism. 78 Seniors Patricia Wheless Doug Whitaker Glenda White Michael White Robert White Michael Whitehurst Dan Whitman Diane Wiggins Richard Wilhelm Ann Wilkins Jeff Wilkinson Audrea Willeke Brenda Williams Lisa Williams Mary Williams Last year’s choice of cap and gown is modeled by Mark Burton.

Should seniors laugh or cry? Graduation meant never hav- ing to get a hall pass, schedule change, or eating in the infamous CHS cafeteria again. It also meant saying goodbye to old friends, a familiar routine , and alma mater. To different students, graduating re- presented different things. To some it was adulthood, the freedom to come and go as they pleased, to get a job, or to go to college. To others, graduation represent- ed a tough reality. It meant fending for themselves, taking responsibility for their own actions, and putting aside fa- miliar ways. On the whole, most seniors were hap- py to be graduating, but I’ll be leaving a lot of friends and memories behind me,” said Bari Slaveny. Kim Schlesman agreed, “I can’t wait to graduate and go to college, but I don’t want to leave my friends.” New responsibilities, friendships and pressures were what faced the average senior in the coming years, but they would always remember the pep rallies, dances and football games of their alma mater. Clearwater High School was as much a part of the seniors as they were, and would remain a part of them for the rest of their lives. So, no matter how one looked at graduating, with eagerness or anxiety, it was sure to be a step which not only had taken a great deal of time and effort, but a step that would never be forgotten. ▼ by Sylvia James On Being a Senior “To be a senior is walking on campus, re- membering the last three years at CHS, and be proud to be here.” — Steve Stickler Seniors 79 A. Sunne A Senior Farewell A nticipation and tension raced through the halls as the year ended. Seniors were getting ready to move out to a new and different life. Every year this happened. The seniors moved on and the juniors took their place. Leaving behind the younger friends still trying to make it through high school was tough for everybody con- cerned. The seniors were upset and ex- cited at the same time because they were moving on to new things. The other stu- dents were just plain upset because they knew the seniors would not be back the following year. Therefore the under- classmen would not be able to see them. The most hard hit and upset students were the juniors. They were the closest and had the longest relationship with the seniors. Next year the juniors would be the “older” class and would have to set the pace. But that didn’t make it any easier saying goodbye to friends. Remember the football games, the dances, homework on the weekends, par- ties everybody just had to attend, going to classes and daydreaming while the teacher talked about the geometric mean of a quadrilateral, going off campus foi lunch, and just sitting around at the li- brary socializing. Think of the past four years when life was simpler and times much easier. Hold on to memories and let the tradition g( on throughout your life. ▼ by Ann Sunne y 80 Seniors On Being a Senior “At the end of your senior year, you face the challenge of a new beginning.” —Tammy Brooks Seniors 81 Sunsets on beautiful Clearwater Bay are often envied by tourists.

Griffith It Was One Busy Year T he chatter of students, spraying of paint and petty arguments were only the juniors working outside of AD-1 on the homecoming hall decorations. The juniors won second place with their hard work and long hours spent on the decorations. This success and many oth- ers were due to leadership of the officers. They were president, Hazel Anderson; vice-president, Chuck Hinton; secretary, Sue Espey; and treasurer, Teri Magilli- gan. The juniors not only won second place for their “jungle theme” hall decora- tions, but took first place with their homecoming float. Although homecoming was an impor- tant event, the junior class was responsi- ble for one of the biggest and most antici- pated events of the school — the Junior- Senior Prom. “We decided at the very beginning of the year where the prom would be, and we also decided to ask the seniors their opinions on the past proms,” said secretary, Sue Espey. Other events sponsored by the junior class were the traditional student-facul- ty basketball game at the end of the bas- ketball season and sale of spirit hats dur- ing the football season for $1.75. The junior class meetings were held every other Thursday, but were held more frequently in the spring wh£n they were planning the prom.

The test was constructed into two main parts: math and reading, whi ch were both timed for 50 minutes. The math consist- ed of math through geometry, including problems like finding ‘x’, completing the series, and reading graphs. The reading consisted of English through the equiv- alent of composition 10. It included parts such as spelling completing the sentence, and reading comprehension. Studying for the PSAT takes a lot of time. Laura Lewis sneaks in a few minutes of study between third and fourth period. The administration of this test to high school students was a fairly accurate pre- dictor of the students performance on the SAT. “I think I will be prepared for the questions of the SAT,” stated Teri Magilligan. It helped the student decide what kind of a college to apply to and what kind of grades to expect in college. The test also informed the student of his performance against other classmates. This was required to apply for any Na- tional Scholarship. The test was administered in the audi- torium early in the morning on Saturday, October 23. Many students felt this date damaged their performance on the PSAT because Homecoming had taken place the previous night. “I was exhausted from staying late at the Homecoming Dance,” commented Joelle Godzich, “but other than that, the test wasn’t real- ly hard.” “I didn’t get to go to the Home- coming Dance because of the PSAT,” added Teri Magilligan. The test lasted approximately two hours and proved to be a beneficial experience to students who participated in it. ▼ By Barbara Sloan and Kelly Palms Juniors 85 In The Real World H ave you ever wondered how a large corporation operates? Junior Achievement answered these questions for many students. J.A. was an interna- tional education program in which high school students organized and managed their own small-scale companies under the guidance of adult advisors from busi- ness and industry. Anyone interested could join Junior Achievement. The programs consisted of fifteen weeks, with one meeting a week. The group met one night a week, and the meeting lasted two and one-half hours. The main group broke into smaller “companies”. These companies then started a business, anything from mak- ing burglar alarms to making pen sets constructed from petrified wood. Each company had a strict schedule to adhere to, making it easier to organize. The companies were started the same way a real business is started, signing a charter, election of a president and board, and the selling of stock in the company. Once this was done, the company was on its way. After they were organized, the com- pany started to manufacture their goods. The students themselves made and mar- keted each product. A majority of the time from the second week to the twelfth week was spent on production. Once they had finished products, the board of directors set what they thought was a fair, yet profitable, price, and sales be- gan. After twelve weeks, the company began the liquidation process (going out | of business). The participants received | their final paycheck and the annual re- port was mailed to the stockholders. The stockholders were paid their dividends and the company ceased operation. Finally, J.A. participants had encoun- tered the real business world. They made money, worked hard and had fun doing it.

Lisa Schmelzle went to Wilsons to avoid the crowds the day the juniors or- dered their class rings at school. “The reason I didn’t order my ring from Balfour is because I didn’t like the tornado on the side,” said Lisa. Lisa also stated, “I wanted something to remember my high school years.” When September arrived, juniors waited in long lines to order their class ring from Balfour. Balfour was the company that manu- factured rings for the school. Athena Binikos was one of the juniors to stand in the line ordering her class ring. When she finished giving the spe- cifics on the ring order, the price came to 136 dollars. Athena said, “I thought it would be nice to have a class ring, plus my parents are buying the ring for me.” “I got my class ring for Christmas in my sophomore year,” said Sheri Miller. The rings are nicer and less expensive at a jewelry store. “My parents bought my ring at Zales for $160,” Sheri also stated. “The prices of class rings have gone up in the past twenty years,” said Mrs. Pat Doliboa, a math teacher at Clearwater High. “The rings cost about 75 dollars when I was in high school.” “I paid $160 for my ring and I paid for it myself,” commented Lisa Schmelzle.

Some juniors who were sixteen years old owned their own car, while others were less fortunate. After a survey, the majority of juniors said they bought their own cars. “I had to buy my own car,” said Sheri Miller. “It took awhile, but I’ve finally got one.” A few juniors said their parents bought them cars but they had to pay for gas and insurance. One junior commented, “My parents bought my car, but I have to work to keep up payments.” Owning a car had many advantages. One advantage was that students had “the freedom to go anywhere and any time they wanted without worrying about how they are going to get there,” stated junior Sonja Davis. Before stu- dents owned a car, they frequently had a tough time getting rides to where they wanted or needed to go. Now the new owners had an advantage because they had the transportation they needed. Along with advantages, there came disadvantages. One disadvantage of owning a car was that money was essen- tial to keep the car in good shape. “I own a foreign car, and it cost a lot to keep it in con’t.

Everyone needed and wanted money, especially high school students. But, because of the economy, it was hard to come by. Why did teenagers want money? Most students wanted money so they could be more independent. Also, they wanted to save for things their parents won’t buy them, or their parent’s couldn’t afford. Perhaps the three main items that stu- dents desired money for were a car (in- cluding gasoline), dates, and clothes. In addition, teenagers needed money to go out on weekends and hang around with their friends. After all, things are more expensive these days, and if kids wanted some luxuries, they had to pay for them by themselves. Obtaining a job was no easy matter. The job market for teenagers was ex- tremely limited. A vast majority of high school students were employed in res- taurants as bus-boys or dishwashers, in supermarkets as stock or bag boys, or in a fast-food environment. In other words, high school students started near the bottom of the job scale.

Starting out at this disadvantage, it was hard for a teenager to find a job he can really enjoy. How did a high school student get a job? First, he went around and filed ap- plications with various businesses. The prospective employee checked back with the business to show his interest. If he was offered an interview, he should have dressed nicely and been on his best be- havior. A couple of interview tips were: 1) don’t ask about money at the beginning of the interview and, 2) dress appropri- ately and look nice. These were sure to help impress the interviewer. While it was tough for a teenager to get a job, it wasn’t impossible. Everyone needs money and a job was probably the answer. ▼ By Tom Q 0 ff ee For many students, working at a supermar- ket is an easy job to acquire. However, the hours aren’t always the best. Often stu- dents such as Kevin Case worked nights and weekends. Kevin works at Kash ’n Karry. 94 Juniors J. Griffith First Step Up M aking the first step towards the top, the sophomore class started off right. Under the leadership of Arthur Rubin and advisor Mrs. Stout, the soph- omore class kept to tradition and was proud of it. The officers were Arthur Rubin, presi- dent, Susan Shoaff, vice-president, Heather Hicks, secretary and Tim Lit- tler, treasurer. The sophomore class participated in the White Christmas program and start- ed a sophomore class soccer team. They also held a car wash with a good number of participants. “I sure wish more people at CHS had gotten involved with their class actiy ties,” stated Arthur. Susan felt the sam way when she exclaimed, “We neede more ideas and participation!” Becasu of this participation problem Heath had one main goal this year. “We wante to encourage sophomores to get in volved.” Although Tim was pleased with th turn outs at the meetings Susan statec “We needed more people at the meeting with innovative ideas.” The sophomore class had moved up ir the world and left their mark on CHS By Walter Crawforc Arthur Rubin president, Tim Littler trea- surer, Heather Hicks secretary, and Susan Shoaff vice president, plan a terrific year for the sophomore class. 96 Sophomores After locking up their bikes in the fence by the auditorium, Kim Gilliam and Janice Peppe hang around before going to class.

These are just a few of the ways that students used their driving privilege. And as usual many such privileges were often taken for granted. Although many abused this privilege, others had not re- ceived the chance to test their driving skills. They were still awaiting the arri- val of their sixteenth birthday. These were the kids who still had Mom and Dad drive them around, pick them up from games, the movies or even dates. Humiliating? Maybe, but none-the-less necessary. These kids were sophomores. “I hate whenever I want to go somewhere I have to ask my parents to take me or I’m always asking a friend,” stated Sue Griscavage. Sophomores, just getting over being classified as the new kids on the block, yet not quite old enough to be considered upperclassmen, anxiously awaited arri- val of their sixteenth birthday when they could obtain their driver’s license and cruise around on their own. No longer would they need to have Mom or Dad pick them up or beg older brothers and sisters to drive them to the store or a friend’s house. Of course, just because one did get his driver’s license doesn’t mean that transportation prob- lems were over. Because although one has a license there was often the problem con’t. 98 Sophomores Sheryl Carr Steve Cass Kris Challis Peter Chambers Steve Chandler Rodney Chapman Mary Cherouvis Randy Chevalier Carol Childers Laura Christie Laura Coffee Julie Cole Arlene Colletic James Collins Tom Cominos Stewart Copeland Mike Couch Missy Cox Steve Craig Tyra Crane Walter Crawford Veronica Creamer Linda Cribbs Carol Crochet After a hard day of school, Kevin Bell starts his usual walk home.

Susan Thomas said, “I’m going to turn sixteen pretty soon, but I won’t get a car right away so I will have a problem for awhile.” With inflation and unemployment constantly rising, many households cut down on luxuries, especially the expen- sive one; cars. Along with those economic problems, insurance rates steadily in- creased, therefore making even more problems for the young driver. Often many families couldn’t afford to keep children on their insurance as full-time drivers, much less being able to buy them a new car. So in order to help out at home and save money for their prized possessions, many sophomores went out and got jobs. Although holding down a part-time job along with going to school was often hard and tiring, it didn’t dampen their spirits. They showed enthusiasm while they looked forward to one day driving off in their very own dream machine. ▼ By Kim Schlesman Debbie Estes Curtis Etheridge Susie Evans Spencer Everett Tim Fagley Mike Fairo Vicki Falzone Cindy Farmer Jeff Faulkner Tanya Feazell Michelle Flint Maynard Ferguson Alex Fernandez Tammy Fisher Jerry Fletcher David Floyd Amy Ford Karen Ford Joe Foster Kim Fowler Darlene Franklin Kirsten Freitag Debbie Friedman Scott Fritz Robert Fuller Steven Gabrielli Lisa Garvey Lisa Gaston Michael Gaylord Phil Geyer Mano Gialusis Kim Gilliam Sophomores 101 Camilla Gissiner Jeff Godcharles Loretta Gulley Lisa Gannieri Stephanie Gray Kris Griebler Erin Griffin Tony Griglione Jeff Hale Diane Hall Daniel Hampton Debbie Handley Tim Hannon Ted Hansford Paul Harmon Sonja Harris Kristin Hart Mark Hartman Sharif Harvey Tamis Harvey Andrea Hassall Lisa Hatmaker Becky Hawethorne Allen Hayes Suzanne Hazelton Bea Heaney Barbara Heathe Michelle Helmholtz Carol Henderson Rebecca Henderson Donny Hendry Mike Henkel After Hours A mong the many decisions facing stu- dents, what to do with a weekend night was often the most difficult. Soph- omores were no exception to this dilem- ma. The city of Clearwater, as opposed to a smaller town, offered a variety of pas- times appealing to the younger age groups. Movie theaters were often frequented. Something about the aroma of freshly popped pop-corn, and a wide viewing screen attracted sophomores to Clear- water 4, Countryside 6, or the new Plitt Theaters rather than watch the same movies at home on cable. These theaters also offered a student discount to defray costs. Home football games drew a large crowd of the student body on Friday nights. “I enjoyed the football games. I live near school so they were easy to get to,” stated Tim Fagley. Sophomores were also found at cheap fast-food restaurants such as Burger King or Wendy’s. This was mainly due to the fact that sophomores, many too young to work, had limited monetary funds. They often were forced to depend on a weekly allowance for spending cash. Other problems facing a sophomore on a night-on-the-town were early curfews and strict dating rules enforced by pro- tective parents. Lack of transportation was another factor that threw off many evenings’ plans. Despite these annoyances, sophomores usually found a way to enjoy their long- awaited Friday and Saturday nights. ▼ By Kelly Palms 102 Sophomores Kendall Henry Kevin Herrick Frank Hibbard Heather Hicks Kim Hill Chip Hoffman Steph Hole Shelly Holmes Frank Hood John Hoopes David Hopkins Guy Hornbeck Amy Horne David Horvath Vivian Houng Leron Howard Jenny Hudson Mark Humerick Erin Hurst Jerry Hurst Richard Hurt Laura Hutchison Steve Infinger Vince James Sophomore Tracy Nicholas chooses to spend her Friday night watching the Semi- nole-Tornado basketball game. Sophomores 103 A Fading Fad A n adventure? A challenge? or simply something to do? Video games have faded in popularity from their peak a few years ago. “They are just something to do,” stated Peggy Boulay. “I only go to the gameroom if there is absolutely nothing else to do.” This statement was typical of those fre- quenting the video arcades. When asked why they played video games most students were unable to an- swer. Others went to Mind Games, locat- ed by K-mart on Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard, or the Barrel of Fun, in Sunshine Mall, to be with their friends on the weekend. Vicki Falzone stated, “I go to the arcade because all of my friends are there, and once I’m there I just play the games.” Vicki spent an average of three dollars a week on games at the arcade. Although video games still took in many quarters, they lost a great amount of popularity. Many small arcades such as the Electric Palace and Starbase 1 were unable to survive. Those arcades surviving were thought of more as a hangout than a place to play games. Joe Lane said, “I only go to the arcade if I am really bored and have nothing else to do.” Despite students’ apathy toward video 4 games, Mind Games was still packed on weekend nights, and the mall arcades continued to rack in quarters on week- end afternoons. So video games appeared to have a fu- ture, however slight, remaining in Clear- water as long as they continued an alter- native to students’ boredom.

Diet, and exercise seem the best way to achieve a healthy body. Lou Fraggis keeps his phy- sique trim by lifting weights. The cafeteria tries to provide balanced lunches for students. Many students, how- ever, decided to skip nutritional lunches and opt for candy or nothing at all. Janice Peppe, Camila Gissner, Laine Klein, Gina McDaniels, and Laura Hutchinson decide on M Ms for lunch. M.

Diet, exercise, and nutrition were a few of the frequently heard words around campus. “I just wanted to stay in shape, and exercise or working out seemed to be the best way,” stated Kurt Wyland. It seemed like everyone was on a diet. They were either too fat or too skinny, but never just right. Of course, one must eat the right foods to maintain good health. That’s where the word nutrition came in. Under this category was calorie counting and the four basic food groups. “I usually tried to eat nutritional foods, but it’s hard. It was a lot easier to run to Burger King for something to eat,” said Karl Wixtrom. Knowing what type of foods to eat and how much was impor- tant if one wanted to lose weight safely and quickly. Exercise, ugh! Exercise was the dir- tiest word that existed. P.E. teachers at- tempted to get students more actively involved in exercise by adding a dance class to the physical education curricu- lum. Many students even joined spas and took up a regular exercise program at home. Although exercise was a major part of losing weight, the diet itself played a big role. There were many such diets to choose from. The Cambridge Diet was a big hit not only with high school stu- dents but around the country. It proved to be a quick-loss weight program. Other ways to lose weight were diet pills, weight watchers, diet centers and, of course, if one had the will power, fast- ing was a quick but unsafe way to shed unwanted pounds. With all these diets to choose from, or just by exercising and eating three bal- anced meals, the sophomores kept in with the “get in shape” craze which swept Clearwater High’s student body.V By Kim Schlesman and Sonja Davis James Mundy Kimberly Myers Carrie Nelson Leigh Nelson Douglas Newbanks Steve Nichols Tracy Nicholas Judy Niels David Nielson Michelle Nieson Steve Noh Vickie Nordstrom Angela Norman Mike Ochocki Kevin O’Connor Julie Oie Debbie Osorio Cynda Ostrander Brian Owen Deborah Painter Debbie Panossian Nanci Parks Jerry Patterson David Paulsen Alex Pearson Angela Peduzzi Kim Peffer Janice Peppe Sonia Peters Karen Pitre Jay Plastic Margo Poad Sophomores 107 Driving students practice making right turns on the range during their ten-minute allotment.

When David Dinger was asked why he enjoyed it he replied, “It’s a relaxing break at the end of the day.” Julie Oie said, “Because it gives me a chance to skill drive.” Harvey West commented, “It gives you knowledge and helps im- prove driving skills.” Kids must have their restricted li- censes before they can take Driver’s Ed. |P A student must be fifteen years of age to acquire this permit. Mr. Eidson, the teacher for Driver’s frith plied, “The main reason for kids who took the course was an insurance reduc- tion. But, of course our major concern was to change the attitudes of young driver’s, making them realize the re- sponsibilities involved with driving and developing good basic driving skills.” The students appreciated the class. Julie commented, “I hope they don’t take it out of the schools because it gives kids the right answers to driving.” “I think the class is set up well; the tests aren’t hard, but they make you study,” concluded David. ▼ By Antoinette DiLiberti Sophomores 109 Terry Suiters Phillip Suydam Scott Tassone Doug Taylor Lavingston Taylor Sharon Taylor Zoe Theodorou Jost Thias John Thomas Mary Thomas Steven Thomas Susan Thomas Laura Thompson Lisa Tillery Bess Toigo Pamela Trizis James Trueblood Ann Turner Mike Turner Don Twardokus Olga Tzigos James Uher Lisa Valenti Bryan Valentine John Vandermeade Stacey Van Simaeys David Vieira Anne Vinci Mark Vivian John Voltsis Chris Wacker Christine Wade Margaret Waldron Randy Walker Robbie Wallace Missy Ward Kathryn Warner Tom Warren Jeff Wasilewski Deborah Waters 110 Sophomores A Future Trend C onfusion, tension, and the hectic pace of everyday life often boggled one’s mind. An organizing element often was needed to convert this chaos into order. The space age provided such an element — home computers. Computers have been the new home appliance for the last few years. “They’re great for typing reports” stated Jordan Knurr, but that’s not the beginning. The most popular reason for purchasing com- puters is for the playing of games. Practi- cally every computer had a tape of each video game. Computers could answer phone calls and record messages. They could even keep a household budget. The most fascinating part about home computers was the fact that they could teach you the basic skills of program- ming. As the holiday season approached, the usual advertisements were displayed on billboards and television. Games, sports equipment, and fashionable clothes ' made their annual appearance on every- one’s Christmas list. Yet computers even intruded upon the holiday season. Probably the most popular computer is the Apple Computer. While other pop- ular computers are the TRS-80, Atari 800, and Texas Instruments products, These computers ranged from $200.00 to $1500.00, which were very reasonable; prices considering the prices in recent years.

Some would come to class a few minutes late while others, who were totally lost, would spend half the period trying to find their next class. As the year proceeded the freshmen be- came involved in clubs, activities and sports. Soon they even elected their offi- cers. The officers chosen were Greg Mayer — president, Robert Aronoff — vice-presi- dent, Leslie Rondeau — secretary, and Joy Taylor — treasurer. With a total of about 185 dues-paying freshmen, the class created spirit which ex- celled past freshman classes by far. The rea- son for this, Leslie Rondeau said, was “I think we had a real supportive class who backed us in everything we did.” Greg Mayer said, “I’d like to get a num- ber one selling project so we can do some- thing to help improve the school and so that this year’s freshman class can prove to be the best class to graduate from CHS.” Rob- ert stated, “With the money we make from fund-raising I think it would be a good idea to buy water fountains.” By and large the freshmen proved to be a class the school could be proud of. Not only did they prove themselves in clubs but they did an equally good job in sports and sports related activities. Summing up the entire year, Joy Taylor remarked, “I felt we had a great year. I think our success can be greatly attributed to the other officers who did an exceptional job.” By Lee Meddin Starting off their high school careers as lead- ers of the freshman class are Greg Mayer, Robert Aronoff, Leslie Rondeau and Joy Tay- lor. 112 F reshmen Chris Acosta Sheryl Adams Lourdes Alcoz Brenda Allen Eric Allen Patricia Allred Mike Alowe Janet Anderson Twyonna Anderson Greg Angel Tina Apergin Michele Arguin Jill Armstrong David Arner Jackie Arnold Robert Aronoff Kristen Atkinson Erin Attkisson Tonya Bach Ron Baclawski Carla Bailey Tom Bailey Don Baker Debra Barber Betty Barham Michael Barlog A1 Basore Jeanne Batson Danny Baughn Kathleen Baughman Leanora Bazin Pam Beecher Freshmen 113 A Day in the Life H e woke with the worst breath of the day! As he looked over his shoulder he saw the remains of an alarm clock. He realized that after punching the snooze alarm for the seventh time, the clock fi- nally broke. The worst part was, the war- ranty on the clock expired yesterday. After getting ready, it was breakfast time. He decided on fried eggs, toast, and juice. In the middle of the meal the egg yolk splat all over his shirt. As he reached for a napkin, he accidentally spilled the orange juice all over his clothes. When he finished getting redressed, he realized he was supposed to leave for the bus seven minutes ago. He walked up the street to see an empty corner. When he realized he had missed the bus, he went home and woke his mom up. As he rode to school all his mother said was, “I can’t believe you did this. You should watch the clock more attentively. You should have more consideration than to Samantha Belk Kevin Bell Paula Bell Dana Belser Vickie Belser Joe Belson Floyd Benjamin Mary Bennett Gino Bertoni Jennifer Bialow Jayten Bieg Michelle Birenbaum Amy Blaha Phillip Blaising Scott Blessing Derick Blunt Wanda Bolden Cherie Bonsant Terri Borden Venus Bosworth Jenny Boyer Karen Boyle Mari Anne Bradley Deron Braun Chris Brock John Brock Gary Brown William Brown Jason Brumett Kim Brundage Tobbi Bryant Todd Bryant 114 Freshmen wake me up this early.” He arrived at school ten minutes late. When he walked into class his teacher said, “Why are you late this time?” He thought for a couple of seconds and real- ized that if he said he missed the bus, his tardy would be unexcused. So he said, “Oh, I had an orthodontist appoint- ment.” (What a gullible teacher.) For the rest of the period he sat in a daze — half asleep, half awake. When the bell rang, he left class and prepared for the long journey to his lock- er. As he made it through the halls, he realized he couldn’t wait ’til he was a se- nior. Then he could push the freshmen around in the halls. After the eighth at- tempt to unlock his locker, it opened. He changed his books and headed to second period. This period he had Mrs. Parker for literature. After he copied the assign- ment off the board, he prepared to go over yesterday’s reading assignment. con’t. i Freshmen 115 During the genetics chapter of biology, Janet Anderson and Beth Plisko study the DNA model.

By this time he felt he had Great Expectations coming out his ears. The bell finally rang and the teacher dis- missed him. After spending an exhilarating period in P.E. getting himself tired, smelly and sweaty, it was back to the locker room to get cleaned up and ready for next period. He walked into fourth period and told Mrs. Steele hello. As he sat down doing some last minute studying on cells, he heard Mrs. Steele say her famous words, “Get out seven or eight sheets of paper, two or three if you don’t know a whole lot.” After the test he watched Mrs. Steele grade it. After hearing his grade was an “A” he jumped for joy. With five minutes left in the period, he asked how Fred was. (That’s her dog.) She said he’s just fine. Being in such high spirits he the Life gave Mrs. Steele a bagel. Now it’s lunch time. He walked into the cafeteria and found he had a choice of either a John Marzetti or some potato turbate. He decided on potato turbate. After getting it and sitting down, he took the first move: he stabbed it. Now he could be sure it wouldn’t crawl off his plate while he ate it. Fifth period went by pretty slow and now it was time for sixth period. He walked into Latin with a feeling of an- ticipation. Everyday in Latin was an ex- perience worth telling about. After giv- ing a test, Mr. Davis decides he’ll teach some culture. Today he learned about Hercules. After hearing about the twelve labors, the period ends.

Some stu- dents were perplexed by which clubs to join, while others joined too many and spread themselves a little too thin. For freshmen this also posed a problem. Freshmen had to learn quickly which clubs would benefit them or which clubs were deemed the “in” clubs. Clubs’ membership drives hit freshmen fast and furiously at the beginning of the school year, and many freshmen had to chose quickly what clubs to join. “I heard the Latin Club was really popular and was one of the biggest clubs, so I joined,” stated Nancy Nelis. Many clubs, mostly language clubs, were avidly joined by freshmen because of teacher urging. Freshmen also concluded that having older brothers and sisters in the school was helpful in that they helped them choose which clubs to belong to. However, clubs were not the only way freshmen got involved. Sports often proved a way to find a budding athlete. Greg West remarked, “I had been swim- ming for a few years, and I obviously went for the swim team. I thought I’d have a better chance at being a good swimmer if I started as a freshmen.” It proved to be advantageous to start on a team as a freshmen. Freshmen were also involved in sports in other ways. Laura Samsel, a “stat” girl for the boys’ varsity basketball team said, “Basketball games are really excit- ing, and I thought being close to the ac- tion and understanding the game better would be fun.” Starting off on the right foot as fresh- men seemed to be a way to insure an involved and successful high school ca- reer. y By Roxanne Moshonas 120 Freshmen An activity planned by many clubs was a trip to the Epcot Center.

Many freshmen went through this while trying out for an athletic team. The pressure was high to excel because of the older kids trying out for the same position. Despite this hindrance, a few fresh- men made the teams they tried out for. Ricky Dickerson, a guard on the J.V. basketball team said, “Basketball is not a sport that you can just walk out on the court and be an instant Dr. J. It requires a lot of effort and hard work.” Another freshman, Michelle Sloan stated, “I’m a good bas- ketball player, but 1 still had to learn some new and different skills.” Inexperience was one reason many freshmen did not make the team of their choice. Some freshmen learned the hard way that the discrimination and intimidation of older players would make them play a little bit harder to be a little bit better than the rest and make up for their lack of experi- enced By Kim Johnson and Roxanne Moshonas Chris Nicolas Wendy Norman Kristi Oakley Tuyet Oberle Sherri Ochocki Dawn O’Daly Dewaine Olson George Onorato Michelle Oreste Walter Orkisz Kerry Owens Mike Pagano Carolyn Parady Stanley Pardos Sharon Pasquale Peter Passaris Teresa Patterson Thomas Pellerin Sidney Perkins Laura Perry Lisa Perry Michael Petellat Rebecca Ann Peters Julie Petrucci Curtis Phillips Kelly Phillips Nancy Phillips Susan Phillips Phanh Phuksahome Robin Picking Doug Pierson Beth Plisko Nick Ploutis Joe Ponczkowski Kimberly Popaden Kenyon Potter Robert Potter Jarrett Powers Scott Powers Krystal Prater Jeff Preising Keith Pringle Tamara Pulver Jerry Rafferzeder Royce Rarick Stacey Reed Mike Reid Elaine Reis Freshmen 123 Patty Remington Tarrence Rhone Richard McKeon Eric Riles Mary Rittenhouse Jessica Rivet Lyssa Robbins Saundra Roberts Doug Robinson Dave Roby Rachel Rodriguez Pat Roe Cheryl Roepke Lynn Rogers Nancy Rogers Leslie Rondeau Todd Rosen Debbie Rosewater Doug Roski Bethany Ross Nancy Ruppitz Boe Rushing Larry Russell Anne Sabin Michelle Salem Monica Sampson Laura Samsel Richard Sanders Ann Scharmack Paul Scheid Wes Sciortino Nina Scott Ray Scott Tiffany Secchiari Shannon Seifert Sherry Setzer Tim Sever Kristin Sevilla Anthony Shano Chris Silcox 124 Freshmen Making Money S ome students spent their free time doing homework or watching T.V., but there were others who took on the big responsibility of babysitting. In the job of babysitting you encoun- tered many interesting experiences. When asked about hers, Tracy Smith re- plied, “Once when I babysat a little girl, Mandy, for the first time, she climbed on the counters and a whole section of the cabinets fell.” Cathy Wicks answered that her most interesting experience was “when someone tried to break into the house where I was babysitting.” When girls started babysitting, the ages vary. Betty Barham started baby- sitting when she was 9 years old. Kristi Oakley began when she was 13 years old. There are various reasons g irls baby- sit. When questioned why she babysits, Linda Cribbs replied, “Mostly for the money, but also I babysit because I like kids.” Most of the time they all seem to enjoy babysitting. Sandy Danskaras said, “I have little kids, and they are so fun and interesting to be with.” There are many rewards in babysit- ting. Sandy Danokaras replied, “Baby- sitting is a good thing to do. You get in- volved with children. You also help them in anyway you can, and as a girl gets older and marries and decides to have kids, she’ll know what to do. But then you have to be patient with the spoiled brats. But all kids are great once you get to know them and for them to get to know you.” Wendy Kurland added, “I think babysitting is a really good experi- ence when you’re a teenager; it helps you become a very responsible person and prepare you for adulthood. ▼ By Antoinette DiLiberti Donna Silva Tony Simotes Brian Slagel Amy Smith Doug Smith Robert Smith Stacey Smith Tasha Smith Kim Snowdon Darcia Spanburg Gail Speets Jodi Stephens Dawn Stiles Richard Stille Jimmer Stoffel LaFrenchie Stonom Michael Stuerman Lynn Stumbers Lisa Suarez Scott Sulkes Mike Sunnucks Mark Sutton David Swann Sabrina Sweeney Teresa Swinton Tom Tague Nguyen Tan-Luc Sonja Tatum Alton Taylor Joy Taylor Lurt Taylor Maggie Taylor Allison Thomas Debbie Thompson Joetta Thompson Mark Thompson Lashondra Torbert Brad Tripp Sandra Turner DeeDee Tzekas While earning money babysitting, Jennifer Calendine reads a book to Craig Meddin. Freshmen 125 No Car No Fun T he same problem plagued the many freshmen at Clearwater High School, — what to do on the weekend? The possibilities were limited because of the lack of trans- portation available to the fresh- men. Friday nights meant football games during the fall, and basket- ball games during the winter. Of course, the majority of freshmen had to be in at 10:00, so it didn’t allow for much to do after the game. The major hassle, however, was transportation. There was al- ways mom, but that was embar- rassing. If he was lucky, he had an older friend who could drive. Other than these there weren’t many op- tions. These school activities took care of most Friday nights, but what about Saturday nights? Video ar- cades were okay, but they got bor- ing week after week. The movies were another option, but since most of the best movies were 11- rated, that ruled the freshmen out. Since they had such an early cur- few, most of them stayed in and dreamed of the days when they would be cruising around on their weekends in their own car, with op- tions open to them. Weekends for freshmen were none-to-exciting. Maybe in the fu- ture freshmen will be able to look forward to weekends with anticipa- tion instead of anguish.

Leadership is needed to hold a group together. This same lead- ership is needed to keep a school in or- der. This was accomplished by the prin- cipal, Mr. Chalmers Coe; vice-principals, Mr. Russell Stichler and Mr. Jack Sandy; and the deans, Mrs. Katri Saari, Mr. A1 Clark and Mr. Jerry Hyde. The administration took on many re- sponsibilities. A few of these were behav- ior, attendance and administrative du- ties. Mr. Stichler, the administrative assis- tant principal who has been at CHS since 1954, had a busy year trying to take care of his responsiblities. When asked what some of his goals for the year were, he responded, “I tried to be as valuable to the principal in solving daily problems as possible, to work more diligently toward better management of plant mainte- nance, to coordinate jobs of deans so all achieve individual responsibilities, and to work as closely as possible with all the teachers.” Mr. Stichler was also involved with the renovation of the entire school which was happening all year long. Another of the assistant principals, Mr. Sandy, had this to say, “I have a loy- alty toward the school and community. I also feel the students at CHS are nice and are an excellent representation of the youth of America.” Many students felt as if the adminis- tration were “patrolling” the halls while walking around with their walkie-talk- ies. However it was not for this purpose. The walkie-talkies were used so that the administration could communicate with each other while walking in halls and go- ing to classes to observe. ▼ By Lee Meddin 128 Administration Keeping accurate records on each student is a job that requires much organization. Mrs. Elaine Jab- lonski switched from the post of counselor to registrar and ac- quired the task of scheduling all students. The responsibility of running a school and making final decisions must fall on one person. Principal Chalmers Coe supervised the stu- dent body and faculty while fos- g tering school spirit in them as § well. 3 Leadership In Action J. Griffith The presence of an authoritative body was often required to maintain harmony in the halls. Mr. Jack Sandy, Assistant Principal, keeps a watchful eye on students boarding the buses.

Ashbrook wr Chosen 1 T Tany students at Clearwater High (especially our seniors) agreed that when the question “Who was the best teacher at CHS this year?” was asked, the answer unanimously was “Mr. S. Gerakios!” Mr. Gerakios was voted T eacher of the Year 1982-83 by a random student poll. A main reason for the favoritism was be- cause“he doesn’t treat us like kids like most teachers do,” commented one se- nior. Another reason students voted for Mr. Gerakios was of his support of the stu- dents, especially with the senior class. He was the Senior Class sponsor and helped in every way possible. But above all the students loved him because he was “funny and really knew how to make learning fun,” said senior Mike Callahan. “I thank the students for selecting me Teacher of the Year. I select the student body as Students of the Year of the en- tire Pinellas County School System.” ▼ In addition to being Senior class sponsor, Mr. Steve Gerakios was nominated teacher of the year.

The last place one expects to end up is back in his high school. But Clearwater High is fortunate enough to have numer- ous “alumni teachers.” The faculty members include club sponsors Mr. S. Gerakios (Senior Class), Mrs. H. Wilcox (NHS), Mrs. L. Smith (SGA) and Mr. A. J. Anderson (NFL). Other CHS graduates are Mrs. S. Mora- vec, Mrs. M. Espey, Mrs. K. Biddle, Mr. J. Tsacrios, Mr. S. Roper, Mr. J. Ewbank and Mr. K. Eidson. Mrs. Moravec at first felt apprehen- sive about returning and wondered how many of her former teachers would still be here. But she found them all support- ive, friendly and helpful. “In no time at all I felt like part of the faculty and school.” Mr. Anderson added, “I believed as a student here that CHS was a great school and nothing in my ten years of teaching here has altered that opinion.” ▼ By Sue Espe y There are many teachers here at CHS who graduated here at CHS.

There were plenty of ways to keep off those unwant- ed calories. One way to help keep a few extra pounds off was to use dancercize, a form of exercising while using music. The women faculty attended dancer- cize class every Thursday from 2:30 till 3:30. They met upstairs above the gym to help stay fit and trim. “The music keeps you from wanting to stop when you get a little tired,” commented Martha Espey. “This class has helped to give me more energy, and I will eventually lose the weight I want.” This class didn’t just help in a physical sense; it also helped mentally. Some teachers said that after starting the class, they felt disappointed they didn’t exercise more before. “I have these tre- mendous feelings of guilt about not get- ting enough exercise,” responded Patri- cia Canavan. The dance class was also a good way for teachers to get together for an event that everyone enjoyed. Katri Saari, who organized the group said, “We were all up there to have fun and get skinny at J the same time.” 1 W - Many teachers go to dance classes held up stairs above the gym where they enjoy re- laxing after a long days work.

A midst the flurry of involvement in high school activities and events, the most impor- tant aspect of school was often overlooked — gaining an academic education. Clearwater High kept its tradition of produc- ing some of the finest students in the county. This reputation was achieved by the combined effort of faculty in all departments. New courses were offered to students such as a new child care and study center, and a word pro- cessing class known as machine transcription. The variety of classes offered to students ranged from honors and advanced courses to work experience programs. Through this ar- rangement, college-bound students as well as ca- reer minded ones were able to achieve the re- quired amounts of credits for graduation. Despite extracurricular events, students man- aged to meet the academic challenges presented to them throughout the year. ▼ By Kelly Palms School didn’t only mean textbooks and chalkboards.

This is part of just one unusual assignments received this semester. “The build it and explain it project in Mrs. Moravec’s creative writing class was the most unusual homework assign- ment I’ve had since I got into high school”, said Cathy Domanico, senior. Working with their sack full of goodies to build something wonderful was an expe- rience for many students. The homework assignments became mind boggling as the year progressed. The Cooperative Business Education class put on a fashion show. Linda Mar- shall, a senior in CBE, practiced dancing, proper posture, and the aspects of mod- eling before participating in the event. The CBE students in the fashion show rehearsed at Gibbs High School. Homework assignments were usually greeted by groans and complaints. Homework was rarely done in the peri- od it was assigned. If free time remained, classes contained students who doodled on desk tops, and students who wrote notes to friends. Homework as- signments were usually greeted by groans and complaints. Mrs. Biddle assigned every student in her dance class to create an original rou- tine.

Each year our progress either im- proved or stayed stagnant. Those stu- dents with significant ability have ad- vanced themselves to high school art classes and have expressed themselves in painting, drawing, ceramics and sculp- turing. Art forms contribute to free expres- sion through creativity. They add to our sensory perception and each one is set off in some way from other things. When asked what are some things works of art have in common, Mark War- ren commented, “They (the good art) make you think and stir the emotions.” A general sense of enjoyment was common among art students. Laura Sta- sek felt her art classes gave her “a chance to express myself and sometimes to for- get problems.” Chris Martin said “it’s re- laxation from academic classes.” Melin- da Kurgas enjoyed her art classes be- cause “I learned the little things that I needed to know about certain ways to do art.” There have been many art projects “a chance to express myself and sometimes forget problems.” — Laura Stasek over the years — some good, some bad. When questioned about hers, Janet Os- borne replied that her most interesting art project was “to illustrate a poem be- cause it let me use my imagination and gave me total creativity.” Commenting on his most interesting art project Brian King said he had to take a picture of an insect and do a paint- ing of one particular part — “it was in- teresting because I noticed the detail and colors of something that small.” Through their art classes the students had been able to put emphasis on their personal development of styles and tech- niques. Their artistic activities had given them an awareness of the appreciation for the creative processes and also for the works of others. ▼ By Antoinette DiLiberti Centering the lump of clay on the potter’s wheel is the first step in making a thrown pot.

Julie Hatcher was folding Classroom work can, at times, become ' unbearably monontonous. Day in and day out, the taking of notes, the classroom exercises, the lectures that send the eyelids drooping sometimes be- come too much. There are, however, some teachers who took steps to break this monontany. Science teachers Mr. Foster and Mr. See- ger, for example, took their biology and ecology classes on outings to the garden. Students were responsible for planting crops of zucchini and green beans, water- ing their crops, and planting and raking their developments. Said a former stu- dent of Mr. Foster, Jenny Wilson, “Planting the crops and watching them grow was really interesting. It was a lot more fun than just sitting in class, day after day, taking notes.” However, there were days when classroom work was nec- essary. Mrs. Distler’s English classes were given the chance to earn extra credit by decorating the bulletin boards for the Christmas season. Another form of out-of-school activi- ties were field trips. For instance, Mrs. Martha’s Business Law class observed the goings-on at the Pinellas County jail- house. This trip was taken on October 26. Another popular field trip was the one taken to Walt Disney World’s Epcot Center. Clubs and classes that had the privilege of going to Epcot were the se- nior class, Computer Club and the Latin Club on November 23, and the French Club and the Student Government on November 5. Mrs. Distler’s English classes were given the chance to earn extra credit by decorating the bulletin boards for the Christmas season.

It’s All In Fun Special Projects 145 The Final Test With exams coming up, a lot of time is spent by students to understand more about the course they’re taking. Here Dawn McCrery uses the precious time she has during her free period to study English. A s predictable as Florida rain in the summer, the most dreaded events of the year rolled around in the middle of January and the beginning of June — ex- ams! According to many who suffered through them, exams were probably the worst part of the school year. “There’s really no point in taking them,” said Carl Wixtrom. “Exams are weighed too heavily. It’s not fair that one exam is equivalent to a six-week’s grade,” said Charlie Robinson. However, exams do have one big advantage. “We get out of school halfway through the day,” said Mike Meehan. Most students take exams seriously and study. “I usually get prepared about two weeks in advance for a big exam,” said sophomore Linda Blumberg. How- ever, many students procrastinate and wait until the last minute to cram for the test. Many seniors questioned the need for them to take the semester exams in June. “By now we’ve already been accepted into a college, and there’s no point in it,” stated senior Nancy Sanders. Another common question was if a student had an A average, then why must he take the exam? Most A students felt they had already proven their skills in the course. Despite all the worries, dreads and fears, most students accepted the idea and tried to make do. “I don’t look forward to taking them, but I try to make the best of it,” stated Barbara Heathe.T By Walter Crawford Exams are weighed too heavily. It’s not fair that one exam is equiv- alent to a six weeks grade. — Charlie Robinson. Instead of using her lunch time to socialize and have fun with friends, Anne Hall de- votes her half hour for lunch to study for the mid-term exams. 146 Exams 80VS STATE 148 Honors Division a At an NHS meeting, presi- dent Dale Deaton gives new members details on their initiation ceremony. T he lights dim, and one by one the students light their candles from one large candle. They take their oaths and sign their names in a book. The candlelight ceremony was a solemn occa- sion, initiating qualified students into an honor- ary society. Few students qualified for honorary societies, but those who did were recognized by faculty, parents, and fellow students. Fellow stu- dents could tell if a student had been tapped for Spanish Honor Society, National Honor Society, Quill and Scroll or any other honor society by the formal dress of the students and by their badges or flowers on the day of tapping. Students not only received honors through clubs, but also by taking difficult honors courses and being selected for such honors as attending Boys’ and Girls’ State. Honors were few, and the students who worked hard attained them and were rewarded for their efforts. T By Roxanne Moshonas An honor a few juniors received was to attend Boys and Girls’ State. This program, sponsored by the American Legion, gave students the opportunity to learn about the state government by allowing them to write bills, elect “student” city and state officials and actually play out the state offices. Those at- tending in the summer of ’82 were: David Aronoff, David Murphy, Andrew Billiris, Steve Klein, Keith Batten, John Friederich, Dale Deaton, Jodi Nelson, Ann Wilkins, Kenzel Hagaman, Jody Alexander, Roy Jackson and James McArthur.

Over fifty students were on the ballot, and the following eleven were selected for the Senior Hall of Fame. 150 Hall of Fame ERI CLARK OB PARAJON He was often seen telling Clearlight staffers how to put their sections together prop- erly and attending meetings of numerous clubs. Bob Para- jon never let a dull moment mar his day. One could clearly see that Bob was a busy senior. In ad- dition to being a member of the Key Club, Mu Alpha The- ta, and NHS, Bob also par- ticipated in the Junior Classi- cal League. He was Demolay treasurer, Quill and Scroll president and editor of Clear- light. He also interned at the Modern Media Institute. He started on the Clear- light and Fathoms staff in his freshman year. He served as Clearlight’s art editor during his sophomore year and was promoted to assistant editor in his junior year. Bob’s cre- ativity and journalism experi- ence helped the newspaper maintain its standard of ex- cellence. Bob knew the meaning of hard work and organization and learned they paid off in the long run. Following his high school performance, Bob clearly had a head start on a successful future. Hall of Fame 151 What is a person called that has a hand in almost every ex- tracurricular activity avail- able at Clearwater High School? An involved student? In this case there was an ex- ception. Teri Clark was more than just an involved student. Teri was most seen at foot- ball games cheering for the Tornadoes. Teri was both a jayvee and varsity cheerlead- er in her spare time. It was surprising that Teri had any spare time at all after homework and school activi- ties. She was treasurer of the Key Club and SGA, activities director of NHS, and was in SHS. Teri also devoted her time to the Clearlight staff. One might think Teri’s grades would suffer after all of her extra-curricular activi- ties, but this is another excep- tion. Teri kept up a high grade point average and won many academic awards. Through her involvement in school, Teri left a lasting mark on both the senior class and on Clearwater High School. ANA TASSONE Most “jocks have the stereo- type of being dumb. Dana Tassone broke that stereo- type. Dana was an important member of the jayvee and varsity basketball teams. He was a starting guard for the varsity basketball team and was a consistent high scorer. Dana was a member of AAU basketall and played in a na- tional tournament in Louisi- ana. For his all around aca- demic and sports achieve- ments Dana won the Jim Aleguas Memorial Award for basketball. Dana didn’t just eat and sleep basketball, but gave special attention to his educa- tion. He was a member of the Computer Club and was an honor student. The Key Club took up some of Dana’s time, and he was ac- tively involved in that club. Many students liked Dana and found him easy to talk to and get along with. His outgo- ing personality made Dana a notable person among the en- tire student body. NN WILKINS was a Demolay Little Sister. She also was the Key Club Secretary, Math Club Trea- surer, a Student Government representative and a member of the Student Rights and Re- sponsibilities Committee. In addition to all of her school activities, Ann was on Maas Brothers’ and Ivey’s teen boards. The time and dedication Ann spent on her endeavors seemed more than one indi- vidual could handle. But Ann did it all with enthusiasm and ease, and her positive attitude shone through above it all. School activities, clubs, class assignments and work con- sumed much of an average student’s time. This and much more consumed the time of a not-so-average stu- dent. Ann Wilkins always found or created the time to accomplish everything re- quired of her. The homework of an honor student was enough to keep busy, but Ann found time in her hectic schedule to involve herself in many clubs, also. Ann was a member of the Spanish Honor Society, the National Honor Society, and 152 Hall of Fame - •, I • ' ■ • ATIE ABBITT When looking down on the football field at halftime, one noticed the small flag twirlers among the band.

She was secreary for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and presi- dent of her church youth Whether it was in the school or off campus, Joe Carwise was involved in leading and participating in many extra- curricular activities. During his senior year, Joe was president of the youth council of NAACP as well as president of his church youth choir. Joe was also very active in his academic classes, which included many honors courses. Joe could always be seen around school with fellow of- ficers of NHS, the Math Club and the Computer Club. He also took part in Latin Club and Key Club events. group. During her sophomore year, Katie was a candy strip- er at Clearwater Community Hosptial. Katie’s senior year had brought more additional hon- ors. She was named to the Homecoming Court and re- presented her youth group, Chapel By The Sea, at the church conference. Clearly, Katie Abbitt dem- onstrated the quality of lead- ership in, whatever she at- tempted. Some of Joe’s leadership qualities may have been at- tributed to his previous presi- dential positions. He was president of both his fresh- man and sophomore class. With all of these activities, it seems hard to believe that Joe still had time to maintain his outstanding grade point average and attend programs such as the Leaders of To- morrrow workshop at the University of South Florida. Through his exceptional academic performance and leadership abilities, Joe Car- wise clearly represented a “leader of tomorrow.” Hall of Fame 153 j. McCauley The deep, authoratative voice year.

Harvey displayed the de- sire to help the school and, through his involvement in various areas, achieved this goal. Classes and after school ac- tivities required a great deal of time. Students sometimes found themselves wishing there were more hours in a day. Yet Harvey West made time for the clubs and activi- ties he took part in.

ENZEL HAGAMAN In every high school there is someone who is an all-around student. At Clearwater High School that student was Ken- zel Hagaman. Kenzel was an exceptional honor student and was ahead of the rest when she had hon- ors classes starting in tenth grade. Kenzel was also a Na- tional Merit semi-finalist. On her academic achievements alone, Kenzel was an extraor- dinary student. If school work wasn’t enough, Kenzel was a fresh- man, junior-varsity, and var- sity cheerleader. In addition to being a cheerleader, Kenzel was a member of many clubs. She was in the National Hon- or Society, Math Club, French Club, and attended Girls State. Kenzel was also a member of both Gayfers’ and Bur- dines’ teen boards. She was also chosen to be Clearwater’s Junior Miss. Kenzel proved to be a di- versified student and got in- volved in almost everything at school. Though she spent hours on her extracurricular activities, she didn’t let it in- terfere with her all important grades. Hall of Fame 155 T. Coffee Not All Study O nly an egghead could maintain a perfect or near perfect grade point aver- age, right? Wrong. Though only seniors with a 3.5 GPA and juniors with a 3.7 GPA were eligible for NHS, these students were definitely not all considered eggheads. For- ty-three students joined NHS, 17 seniors and 26 ju- niors. The first project undertak- en by NHS was the induction ceremony for new members. This was no easy task, but the end result was a a solemn can- dlelight ceremony, remem- bered by all who participated. The new members, as well as old, were expected to main- tain their high averages, or they were put on “probation” until their grades improved. If their grades worsened, their membership in NHS was ter- minated. NHS was not all study and no play. Many activities were planned and were well at- tended by all. In December, the club went caroling to three nursing homes and after caroling, met at co-sponsor Mrs. Steele’s house. A gift ex- change and ornament identi- fication closed out the even- ing. The club also went to see a production of Brigadoon. Jodi Nelson commented, “Each year NHS expands. This year the biggest change was in the social activities of the club. We planned at least one activity for every month. The membership has been just great and I think NHS is making a name for itself.” The officers for this year in- cluded Dale Deaton, presi- dent; Karen Wacker, secre- tary; Kelly Douglass, treasur- er; Sergeant At Arms, Kristin Kran and Joseph Alexander; and advisors Mrs. Marion Steele and Mrs. Helen Wil- cox. NHS members also offered their services as tutors for any student who requested it.

One Step Further SHS T he Spanish Honor Soci- ety — one step further than the Spanish Club. SHS not only required the taking of Spanish but main- taining a “B” for three con- secutive semesters. in Spanish 3 or higher. Under the leadership of sponsors Mr. Barry Wright and Mrs. Mabel Gill, an initi- ation was held for new mem- bers, welcoming them into a life-long membership of the Salvador Dali chapter of the Spanish Honor Society. Members of SHS spent many hours on fund-raising events. The main purpose for this fund raising was to help send academically qualified students to Orlando for state convention in April. “One of the biggest things we worked for was the state convention, where students give im- promptu speeches, plays, and things like that,” stated Ann Wilkins. A car wash, meetings, can- dy sales, and other activities kept president Sophie Couris, vice-president Mike Markou, secretary Courtnay Cambell and treasurer Ann Wilkins busy all year. Their hard work, along with the other members, helped SHS pro- vide academically accelerated Spanish students with a chance to expand and explore the Spanish language and cul- ture. ▼ Quill and Scroll C. Blyshak D eadlines and commit- ments. It was the thought on most Quill and Scroll members’ minds. Quill and Scroll, an honorary jour- nalism society, was comprised of staffers from Aqua Clara and Clearlight who met the necessary requirements of a 2.8 grade point average and at least one year spent on a pub- lication staff. In between harried sched- ules and hectic deadlines, the staffs found the time for meetings, though few and far between. With a returning seven members, staffers were tapped for the society. A “dress-up” day was held the day after tapping and an early breakfast was held January 26 at Robby’s Pancake House. The main event planned to bring the staffs together was the annual “Pub” Bowl. It was held at Brooker Creek Park in late November. After a grueling game of football, the Aqua Clara staff emerged victorious. “I really didn’t have much confidence in the Aqua Clara team, but under my great leadership we pulled it off,” said Brad Ashbrook. The leadership of presi- dent, Bob Parajon; vice presi- dent, Mark Niemann; secre- tary, Kelly Palms; treasurer, Roxanne Moshonas; parlia- mentarian, Chris Blyshak; and historian, Teri Magilligan helped Quill and Scroll have one of it’s most succesfful years. ▼ By Roxanne Moshonas ■ SHS: Front Row — Michael Markou (treasurer), Sophie Couris (president), Courtnay Campbell (secretary), Ann Wil- kins (treasurer); Second Row — Steve Miller, Scott Sheplak, Paul Wieczorek, Tyler Spray- man, Jost Thias, Robert Ru- ph oldt, Chris Kuntz, Sophie Karageorge, Charlie Robinson; The SHS, along with the Span- ish Club, held a car wash as a fund-raiser.

Brain Busters A s if regular classes wer- en’t enough of a load, many students went beyond these normal classes and took advanced placement and honors courses. For those who were capable of passing, there was a wide range of difficult honors classes. Foreign language honors classes consisted of students who could read, write, and converse fluently in Spanish, French, German or Latin. For those more interested in Eng- lish, there was British Litera- ture, Advanced Placement English or AP History. And for the mathematical gen- iuses who could tackle ex- tremely tough math prob- lems, there were Trigonom- etry and Math 5. For anyone who enjoyed dabbling in labs, Chem II and physics honors were offered. Many of these courses re- quired a teacher’s approval or a test was given to test one’s ability to participate in an honors class. For many, burn- ing the midnight oil, and giv- ing up weekends to finish a term paper were nothing new. And although the workload often proved to be hard and tedious, the time was well spent.

PTIhe Latin Club meets today in B-2 and there will be a Student Government meeting Mond ay in portable 5.” The an- nouncements were crowded with club meeting information, and they became common place with the thirty plus clubs existing at CHS. A big change in clubs was the combining of the Key Club and the Keyettes to form the Key Club. The Key Club took over the position of largest club from the Latin Club, who held that position for years. An- other change was the discovery that Inter- act was alive and well and becoming in- volved in school functions and activities. A major goal of most clubs was money. Students devoted their time and effort to car washes; the sale of M M’s, gummi bears, spirit hats, spirit buttons, gray and red pom-pons and message-bearing pump- kins, stockings, carnations, Easter Baskets and computer Christmas cards. But clubs did not only make money; they planned activities and service projects. A new service project undertaken by Student Government was having various clubs sponsor one or two children and buy and wrap gifts for them at Christmas. These gifts were the only ones the children would receive. Clubs also did what they were supposed to do and did it well — Socialize. They planned picnics, parties, went to plays, at- tended conventions and all-around had fun. T By Roxanne Moshonas The Chess Club held many tournaments and exhibi- tions during the year.

The cheerleaders broke the typi- cal cheerleader stereotype and expanded their role by beginning service to the com- munity. The captains Kenzel Haga- man, Carol Rohdy and the teammates Karen Murray, Dale Deaton, Vicky Frost, Sally Hupp, Joy Palmeri, Teri Clark, Sandy Reigal and An- nie Rawls all worked hard on projects involving things out- side of our school. They were joined by four male cheer- leaders, Dennis Garcia, Bill Banker, Randy Breece, and Jimmy Franklin, for the sec- ond half of the basketball sea- son. “I’ve always liked cheer- leading, and the outside ac- tivities made it a lot better,” stated Karen Murray. This past summer they went to ICF (International Cheerleading Foundation) Cheerleading Camp to work and enter competitions with other schools. The group also helped in Clearwater Mali’s Diaper Olympics by judging the events. In addition, they attended U.S.F.’s Children’s Festival Cheerleading Clinic to teach children cheerlead- ing techniques. Last but not least, the cheerleaders be- came Santa’s Helpers at Clearwater Mall to help with all of the oncoming children who were waiting patiently to see Santa himself. With all of these outside ac- tivities, the cheerleaders still did their regular job of help- ing with the spirit by making posters to hang around the school and spirit letters to help the athletes fire up. The squad went to all of the games and cheered until they were hoarse, helping to lead the school on to the lasting tradi- tion of winning at CHS.

Jayvee W ho had the most school spirit during jayvee football and basketball games? The Tornado fans had plenty, but the jayvee cheerleaders inspired that spirit. The very energetic cheer- leading squad was made up of nine girls. They used this en- ergy to entertain and to get the crowd rowdie. Karen Steiner said, “Cheering was not all fun and games. People just didn’t re- alize how much work was put behind cheering, but all that work was worth it.” These cheerleaders had to practice real hard to be as good per- formers as they were. The hardest workout was needed , before the three-day cheer- leading camp held at the USF. But all the strenuous practice paid off in the end. The Tor- nado jayvee squad was ranked in the top six. At camp, all the girls, along with Mrs. Lunn, were pleased with their performances. In addition to the camp ranking, many superior rib- bons have been won by the sophomore cheering squad. Mrs. Lunn was appreciated by all members of the squad. With the agreement of all the cheerleaders, Lisa Tillery commented, “We owe an aw- ful lot to Mrs. Lunn. We all know she’s behind us 100%.” A sponsor who cares what the girls do and helps out is essen- tial for a good squad. Fund raisers were also es- sential. Things needed to be paid for, such as paying bills when other teams came to Clearwater High, uniforms and much more. Mrs. Lunn said, “We sold buttons that said, ‘I Love The Tornadoes!’ for $1.00 each and they sold really well.” In addition to selling buttons, the squad held a few car washes. With dedication and hard practices, the J. V. squad com- pleted the year successfully. by Cindy Thompson Freshmen T hey could always be seen practicing in the stadium a couple days a week and cheering with the Varsity Cheerleaders at home and at nearby away games . . .

The 1982-83 squa d was Kim Fry and Karen Valentine (Co- captains), Adele Logan, Ella Swinton, Debbie Crown, Nina Gregory, Wendy Norman and Traci Mason. The cheerleaders were seen practicing with the help of Mrs. Webb and Mrs. Baby, who helped out at the games. Along with decorating the halls during the week, the freshman cheerleaders helped the Varsity squad raise money. Unlike the other squads, the freshmen squad didn’t have an account, so they lent a helping hand to both jayvee and varsity cheer- leaders. Starting out on the fresh- man squad helped each girl to obtain experience to be a good cheerleader. If the freshman cheerleaders decided to con- tinue to jayvee, they wouldn’t have much trouble because they’ve certainly had the ex- perience. ▼ By Cindy Thompson .

At half- time, they show the crowd what they are made of. B. Ashbrook Gotta Dance A familiar sight at the foot- ball games were the Tor- nadoettes. But this active group was involved in many more performances than just weekly football games. The 1982 squad marched in three parades, performed for both Sea World and High Point Elementary School, and entertained at basketball games. Over the summer in order to get ready for cam p, the Tornadoettes practiced three times a week. Camp was held at Stetson University in De- land, Florida. Here the girls learned over three dance rou- tines a day. The last day was reserved for competition. The squad brought home two tro- phies ranking superior in both dancing and marching. During camp, held by the All American Drill Team School, Jackie Barratt was chosen to perform with other girls from around the country. “It was a really good experi- ence and a lot of hard work. We performed at a Dallas Sla- veries basketball game. I had a really good time.” Practice makes perfect and that’s exactly what the Torna- doettes did over and over again. Since it was no longer an in school class, the squad practiced after school 4 days a week. During football season, every Wednesday night was spent practicing with the marching band, perfecting the halftime show. At the end of the season the Torna- doettes went along with the band to Sarasota for band competition. Bands from all over the areas joined in on this event. The Tornadoes were ranked Superior. The season came to an end in January, and a new squad was chosen. The 1982 Torna- doettes had spent one year of hard practice, fun, and a line of fine performances. “It was an excellent year and we had a great squad”, said Elizabeth Bialow.

M ost people thought get- ting up on a stage and acting in front of a big crowd was very hard to do. But members of the International Thespian Society proved with ease their amazing ability to perform. Under the new leadership of Priscilla Papas, the actors and actresses presented their winter production on Decem- ber 2nd and 4th. “God’s Fa- vorite,” a comedy by Neil Si- mon, was about a wealthy Jewish family being tested by God. Many hours were spent by the crew on building sets, and for over a month, players and crew stayed after school every day until at least 4:30 rehearsing. A spring play was also produced. Organizing parties and the banquets held after each pro- duction were only some re- sponsibilities of ITS presi- dent Jeff Drobney. Of his po- sition, he had this to say, “Being ITS president has been very rewarding and will hopefully someday lead me into the limelight of stardom. One step toward stardom was going to state competi- tion. Held this year in Gaines- ville, approximately three drama students attended the three day conference. Actors presented their individual or duet events before the judges, hoping to win best actor or ac- tress or best supporting actor or actress awards, which were given out at the banquet at the end of the conference. Students also attended in- structed workshops in such subjects as comedy, dance, makeup, and scenery. Most who attended felt that going to state was very beneficial to their acting skills. Whether acting was in their future plans or not, members found ITS to be an exciting and rewarding experience. ▼ By Sue Espey ITS 171 J.

Ashbrook O ne may often wonder what kind of people could have the ability to pro- duce a 352 page yearbook. The answer? Talented, dedi- cated and organized people — but the key word is organiza- tion. Organization was desper- ately needed in the new, largely inexperienced staff that began the year. The new Aqua Clara advisor, Mrs. Judy Cannaday, who some- times liked to try her hand at being a shutter bug, played a main role in bringing the staff together. As for the staffers, let it suf- fice to say that no two of them were alike. For example, Sue Espey could always be found up to her elbows in club pho- tos and trying to keep up with all the club activities taking 172 Aqua Clara place at CHS. Roxanne Mo- shonas managed to keep the secret of Hall of Fame when she was not going hysterical over the huge enlarged pic- tures returned to her from Bryn-Alan.

While Missy Plants and Bridget Canavan tried to in- corporate every school sport into fifty pages, Antoinette DiLiberti and Kim Johnson managed to make faculty and academics an interesting and attractive section. Kim Schlesman, Anne Sunne, Carolyn Pedulla and Tricia Weglarz were indis- pensable when it came to last minute story writing or rush jobs of typing. Although a previous Clear- light staffer, Brad Ashbrook graciously volunteered his services as head yearbook photographer. When not at- tending New Wave concerts, he kept pictures from becom- ing lost and also kept the oth- er photographers, Tom Cof- fee, Mark Englander, and Jon Griffith, running frantically around on photo deadline day. The Aqua Clara staff grew during second semester with . the addition of seven new , staffers. Bill Durst, Heather McDaniel, Peggy Boulay, Kelli McFarland, Kelly Flem- ing, Barbara Sloan and Kelly Geoghegan showed their will- ingness to learn. They helped in all possible areas and of- fered a bright future for year- books to come. While this momentous book was being constructed in the above mentioned meth- ods, the Aqua Clara staff still found time to get to know 174 Aqua Clara Aqua Clara each other and become closer friends. For example, to continue the strict competition against rival publication Clearlight, the Pub Bowl was revived. Following a picnic lunch at Brooker Creek Park, a foot- ball was produced and the yearbook vs. newspaper bat- tle began. The players on both teams were merciless, but following four quarters, the Aqua Clara staff emerged victorious once again. Staff members also attend- ed an FSPA convention dur- ing early October in Lakeland to learn about current jour- nalism standards. At school, in addition to the dreaded “ad seminars” at Ca- pogna’s Dugout, a favorite way to pass class time was the ever-popular birthday party. Every staff member received one (although sometimes a few days late). These parties were a never-ending excuse to break out the fourth period munchies. But back to deadlines: missing croppers, rulers, and grease pencils that disap- peared into thin air. “Oh no! We’re out of copy sheets!” Typewriters with missing and jammed keys. “Has anyone seen the volleyball story?” “I think I left it at home.” Slav- ing in the pub until late-night hours until surrendering in desperation on color dead- line.

Yet when the finished product was distributed in early June, staffers forgot the headaches that accompanied the construction of their year- book.

But most likely it was the hand-made posters ex- pressing such thoughts as “It is better to ask forgiveness than permission.” If someone were to walk into the room by accident, the reaction would have been total confusion, but to the twenty-five or so students that met in the room during sixth period, the reac- tion was “There’s no place like home.” The room was D-6 and the class was Journalism 3-N, af- fectionately known as Clear- light. These were the people that produced the school’s critically acclaimed newspa- per. In the past, the Clearlight staff was known for its ability to produce one of the coun- try’s top high school newspa- pers, and for its ability to treat the physical and mental malfunctions that occur dur- ing deadlines. This staff was no exception. Led by editor-in-chief, Bob Parajon, and his trusting sidekick, Mark Niemann, the staff was able to tackle such issues as closed campus, cheating, teenage prostitu- tion, and child abuse. Stories such as “Cheating: Students cheat to make the grade,” by Mark Niemann received some local attention from the Evening Independent and cont.

Although this meant getting out of class for a day, many staffers would have easily preferred to go to school in- stead. To these staffers, MMI meant typing for six hours straight while eating a lunch consisting of cheese, crackers, and a coke. “Most students don’t realize the work and ex- tra time that we put into this,” said Lisa Jensen. Also dear to every staffer’s heart were the days of paste- up in the “Pub” or publica- tions room. For it was in this oversized closet where the staff completed the final stages of production. For three days, T-squares, rulers, and exacto blades glided through the air for hours on end. It was during this time when pages were ripped, tools were broken, and nerves were shattered. A simple act, such as changing the station on the radio, brought such violent reactions as bombardment with rubber cement bottles. The pressure was treacher- ous, but once the final type-o was fixed, and the last line was straightened, the feeling of satisfaction and accom- plishment was gratifying. “If it weren’t for paste-ups,” said Arthur Rubin, “I would retain what little sanity I still have. That’s what makes me like I am. Although the staff was over-worked at times and of- ten received some negative feedback from students and administration alike, they felt great pride when they saw what they had created. As editor Bob Parajon stated, “It takes a lot of extra work and dedication in order to pro- duce the paper, and at times you have to ask yourself ‘Why me?’, but once it’s finished, you know it was worth every minute you put into it.”T By Bob Parajon B.

The new advisors Mrs. Kingsley and Ms. Simmons started from scratch. The first step was assigning positions to staff members. Greg Vass, Lynda Stevens, and Liz Gibbons were the edi- tors of the magazine. The Editorial Editor was Kim Johnson and the Art Editor was Jon Bortles. The magazine started by selling ads in November and then held a contest from Jan- uary through March. The contest was divided into po- ems, short stories, and art. Cash was awarded to the win- ners. “I loved promoting the contests, then the magazine,” said Kevin Freel, promotions board member. Staff members worked on getting poems and artwork matched up to put on layouts to send to the publishers. The art entries were out- standing. The staff had a dif- ficult decision to make for the art contest. “Pm on the art board and I also love to draw. I liked the theme Plumb the Debths, because it was easy to work with,” said Chris Kir- choff. y By Kim Johnson FCA F CA was founded in 1947 by Oklahoma student coach Don McCla nen while speaking three minutes in a church service on “Making My Vocation Christian”. He got the idea to utilize the ex- isting hero worship of the ath- lete to spotlight the greatest product of all, the Christian faith. By 1954 he was able to obtain support from influen- tial clergymen, business lead- ers, and athletes. The Fellowship of Chris- tian Athletes shared their commitment of Jesus Christ through the common bond of sports with the guidance of John H. Nicely, the group’s advisor for the past six years. Connie Bunker, president of the organization, com- mented that “FCA hopes to provide fun, fellowship, and a chance to learn more about God.” FCA sponsored several activities during the year. Three-year member Jane Williams stated, “The club went to a recent meeting at Lake Yale in the beginning of February.” Connie added that “The club had a lock-in and went tubing last year. This year we held a Burger Bash with Campus Life. We have had guest speakers in the past and this year they were Dan- ny Bucs, Curtis Jordan, and Gayle Sariens. We also had tapes and discussions ranging from Rock Music to your rela- tionship with God.” When asked to describe the i club, Shelley Kapelak said, “It was a close-knit group of people who got together and discussed current subjects that happen in our lives.” Paul Hickert said, “It was a group of people who dis- cussed their feelings and be- liefs.” ▼ By Antoinette DiLiberti Busily looking over submitted materials, Fathoms staffers must decide what to enter in the 1983 Fathoms.

A major issue among club members was the merg- ing of Key Club and Keyettes. Former Key Club President David Murphy resigned his position, and Senior Nancy Fein took the office. David’s resignation was the result of being elected Master Counci- lor of Demolay. Key Club and Keyettes combined following the trend set by Key Clubs in the state. Its merging met with some opposition. To eliminate con- fusion, the elected officers of Key Club and Keyettes com- bined, with each holding their same position. New members to the club were elected twice a year. Every student was wel- comed and encouraged to ap- ply. Members were required to maintain an average of ‘C’ or better, and were expected to complete at least three ser- vice projects. The club had undertaken several community service projects such as holding a canned food drive, the visit- ing of nursing homes, spon- soring the Key Club Olym- pics, and Christmas caroling.

New Traditions T he Student Government Association handles events as big as home- coming to events as small as helping Mr. ' Coe pick new fur- niture for the cafeteria. “We represent the students of Clearwater High to the ad- ministration,” stated Mrs. Smith, the SGA’s sponsor. “We promote school spirit and good relationships be- tween the students and ad- ministration, and between the clubs.” The officers, elect- ed at the end of last year, were Wendell Williams, President; Chris Blyshak, Vice Presi- dent; Teri Clark, Treasurer; and Karen Wacker, Secretary. Homecoming was the ma- jor event the SGA accom- plished this year. They planned, set the dates for, and organized everything in homecoming, including the dance. For fund-raisers the SGA sold red and grey pom- poms at homecoming and sold small stockings at Christmas. The stockings were filled with candy and de- livered in class. The SGA added a portrait of Mr. Coe to the portraits of past principals in the front of- fice. They also planned a club day. The club day resembled the Battle of the Network Stars. Clubs competed in many different events. “The purpose of this was to bring the clubs together,” said Mrs. Smith, “The problem with the clubs is that they are un- friendly to each other. We hoped to change this.” On March 4, SGA held the first annual homegoing. “Homegoing is exactly like homecoming, but everything is reversed,” said Chris Blyshak. In the concept of homegoing, there is first a championship game played by the powder- puff football team, a team made up entirely of girls, and then the dance. The freshman team plays the sophomore team, and the juniors play against the seniors. The win- ners of these two games play in a powderpuff bowl. There is of course a homegoing king and also a male Tornadoette show. “We got this idea from Countryside High School, who has done it for the past 2 years,” Chris said. “We hope to make it a tradition for Clearwater High.” This year SGA attended the annual conference for stu- dent governments to discuss new ideas. “We haven’t been going the past few years. I’m glad that this year we were able to go. We want to be more involved. That is our goal this year, to be more in- volved in the school and com- munity,” according to Chris.

Organization, carefully structured meetings, many members? Not necessarily. The French Club, spon- sored by Ms. Brenda Birch, was a loose structured club with only a handful of mem- bers, as almost any other school organization. This group operated as a group of friends with a com- mon interest in French. French club activities ranged from picnics, to parties, to decorating their room for the holiday season. Leading the club was presi- dent Andrea Laney. Andrea stated, “Most of our activities are not oriented to the French language, but instead a v chance to get together as a group and have a good time.” Other officers were Vice- president Jeff Samsel, Trea- surer Dan Hawkes, Secretary Anne Sabin, and Historian Anthony Zinge. They all worked together to keep the club at its best. One attending the meet- ings would see a very comfort- able atmosphere as students freely spoke. Members would discuss coming events and items of business in the inter- est of the club. The French club was surely not the largest or the most owerful club in the school, ut they all had a great time just being together. ▼ By Jeff Samsel Spanish T he once forgotten Span- ish Club returned to Clearwater High. Last year a Spanish Club did not exist, though it did in previous years. Last year there was only a Spanish Honor Society, which was still here this year, but only included third and fourth Spanish students who had attained a B average ev- ery semester of Spanish. This left over half the Spanish classes. As a result of this di- lemma, the Spanish Club once again evolved. The Spanish Club and SHS joined in most of the same ac- tivities. The officers in SHS were the same officers as in the Spanish Club. The offi- cers were President Sophie Couris, Vice-president Mi- chael Markou, Secretary Courtnay Campbell, and Treasurer Ann Wilkins. Besides car washes, picnics, and various other club get-to- gethers, the Spanish Club had something all to its own — the Florida State Spanish Con- test. Because only twenty stu- dents could attend, those wanting to participate were chosen by competitive means. The Florida State Spanish Contest consisted of different categories. Students could present a play, memorize a speech, or make an impromp- tu speech about a topic not known before hand. All of these categories were evaluat- ed by judges. Charlie Robinson wrapped it up when he stated, “I felt it was a very worthwhile and beneficial club.” ▼ By Walter Crawford m 188 French -Spanish- After busily washing a truck, Arthur Rubin takes a short break to pose for the camera.

Headed by Mr. Davis, this club was the sec- ond largest in the school. The 150 members met on Tuesday every month to set up events. This year’s officers were consuls Sandy Piper and Anne Bunker, Historian Con- nie Bunker, Treasurer James Stevenson, and Secretary Beth Morgan. They planned fund raisers, picnics, the an- nual banquet, and district state Forums. These activities included the alumni and were achieved mainly to bring ev- erybody together for a good time with old classmates and new acquaintances. “The Latin Club is a fun organiza- tion that improves every year,” said Sylvia James. The school remembered the Latin Club by its unusual traits such as the rubber chicken, the deep purple classroom and the antics go- ing on inside the classroom. Mr. Davis, the leader of the pack, was a new type of spon- sor; sometimes he was more like a student. His pupils for- got that he was actually the teacher and not just a friend. He was fast with the jokes, the ideas, and cultivated a mass of students around him. This and hard work by the students brought around the Latin Club and made it suc- cessful. Every year more stud ents joined the Latin Club, and without knowing it, created a new tradition at CHS. T By Anne Sunne German D an Sei Huete 1st Freitag. This was a common ex- pression in the United States as well as in Germany. It was better known over here as “Thank God it’s Friday”, but in the German club this was a very familiar phrase. This and many other phrases were used and learned by the German students. This year’s officers were Presidents Paul Kurmas and John Friederich, Vice Presi- dent Heidi Buettner, Secre- tary Mike Peffer, and Trea- surer Lisa Buettner. To be in the German club all one had to do was to have interest in it, pay the dues, and have a German class. The main fund raiser was the sale of gummy bears im- ported from Germany. All the money earned went toward the convention during second semester in Orlando. They also attended the St. Peters- burg International Folk Festi- val. “Being in the German club was a lot of fun and I was glad to meet all the other students that are as interested in the German language as I am,” said Heidi Buettner. The German club turned out to be a great way to expe- rience different customs and traditions of another culture.

Spending most of his class peri- od working in the computer room, Dana Tassone finds out some interesting information. Rivalry! M any clubs seem to be in competition with each other, and the math and com- puter clubs have the reputa- tion of being two of the big- gest rivals in the school. The reasons for this feud are numerous, as the clubs compete in many ways. The annual soccer matches and a bowling tournament this year provided fierce battles to prove which was the better club. Membership was also a competitive catagory, since both groups drew members from among the top junior and senior math students. Deciding which, if not both, to join became quite a task. Both clubs doubled their last year’s enrollment, show- ing the growing interest in mathematics and computer science. Computer club spon- sor Mr. McClelland stated, “Because of greater interest today, computer science is the number one career interest, according to the Gallup Poll.” Both clubs remained very active throughout the year. Outside of planning numer- ous parties such as the math club’s Halloween party, fund- raisers like the computer club selling computerized Christ- mas cards, sporting events like soccer games and bowling tournaments, and even field t rips such as one to EPCOT, both clubs stayed involved with their local and national chapters and participated in contests held by those organi- zations. Clubs such as these are es- pecially helpful to te college- bound student. Computer club president Phil Lawson said, “This course is really helpful to students and a good introduction into the com- puter world. Mr. McClelland is really into it and makes the complex computer system simply understood.” Mu Al- pha Theta parliamentarian Scott Sheplak added this, “The math club introduces many other concepts to its members that aren’t covered in regular classes. It is really beneficial to college-bound students.” So to the average student, a club that deals with math or computers may sound very boring. But they definitely proved that one can have fun while participating in an edu- cational organization. y By Sue Espey The Computer Club: Front Row-Paul Kurmas, Mark Niemann, Phil Lawson; Middle Row-Chris Marich, Mary Mahairas, Mike Marich, Teri Godzich, Vivian Houng, Judy Lutz, Marlene Bure, Kim Ross, Laurie King, Mike Sowinski, Mike Meehan, Kristin Kran, Lisa Frank, Cindy Acker, Kathy Glass, Cindee Umiker, Mr. McClelland; Last Row-Wells Russell, Lance Hallmark, Wayne Leidall, Kris Woolsey, Suzanne Jewell, Alan Petrillo, Carl Savige, Brian Holi- day, David Murphy, Tate Taylor. 192 Computer Club Passing out the cake and cook- ies became the duty of sponsor George Carswell during the math club’s initiation.

Club president Joe Carwise said he likes chess “just be- cause it is a challenge, and the competition is fun. Also, it is a game that anyone can play.” The Chess Club, led by sponsor Mr. Juan Cruz, planned on entering a tourna- ment in the latter part of the year, which they were confi- dent of winning. They were favored because they beat the school that won last year, Dunedin, 6-1 and 7-0.

In the past, many setbacks often proved to be the major source from keeping the club alive. With so many active clubs in school, students had to choose which organizations they wished to belong to. Par- ticipation also proved to be a handicap. Although many people showed up in the be- ginning, not many always re- turned for meetings and group projects. This year, however, Presi- dent Laurey Amorose tried to make things different. The club held regular weekly meetings. There were about fifteen active club members. The leaders of the group were President Laurey Amorose, Vice-President Colleen Dou- gherty, Treasurer Kim Black, and Secretary Teri Proulx. Advisor for the club was Mr. Tom Cusmano. The Rotary Club, which is run by local bu- sinesses, sponsored the group. Operating mainly as a ser- vice group, the club’s projects were centered around helping the community and school. During Christmas-time, the members held a can food drive and delivered food to families in need. They also ar- ranged for many stores in the local malls to donate gifts to children who otherwise would receive very little for Christ- mas. In the midst of these projects, Interact members also found time to visit nurs- ing homes in the community and sing Christmas carols. Another project of Interact was to do something to beau- tify CHS. Provided that the club con- tinues to have active mem- bers and strong leaders, In- teract should not only stay alive, but prove itself as an outstanding asset to the school and community. ▼ By Kim Schlesman 194 Chess Interact: Front Row — Sarah Baxter, Valerie Sloan, Wendy Hubbard, Jody Baldwin, Col- leen Dougherty, Laine Klein, Barbara Sloan; Second Row— Jeff Riddle, Laura Vella, Shar- on Lyons, Terri Jurgens, Dale Aldrich, Carolyn Pedulla, Carla Shano; Third Row — Terri Proulx (Secretary), Sophie Karageorge, Gina Velardoc- chia, Anita Carrieri, Rosemary King, Marc Glasgow, Laurey Amorose (President), Maryann Sullivan, Diana Southern, Kim Black.

The Sailing Club was formed to take advantage of the windy and sunny days we en- joy year round. Last year’s Sailing Club had problems with the high cost of dues, and that caused problems with participation. This year’s club reduced the dues to $7.50 and included a free T-shirt for dues-paying members. The results were great and increased the num- ber of members. The Sailing Club sailed to Caladesi Island on a Saturday and spent the night. They sailed home the next day. The club’s commodore was Kurt Knutsson, and he loved to sail. Kurt said, “The club was designed to teach mem- bers to sail and to have fun.” Not enough of the mem- bers owned sailboats, so bu- sinesses and people that lived on the beach helped out. They either donated or rent- ed out boats to the club mem- bers, as long as the owners went along on the sail. New members had opportunities to learn skills and safety. “I joined the Sailing Club to learn how to sail,” said Kevin Freel, a general member. By Kim Johnson NFL C learwater High NFL. Not a new, optimistic name for the football team, but rather the relatively unknown name of one of the school’s most active clubs. The club is the National Forensic League, also known as the de- bate or public speaking club. Headed by advisor Andrew J. Anderson, the members at- tended weekly tournaments on Saturdays to gain points. These points were awarded for speeches given; the better the speech, the more the points. When a student gained twenty-five points, he or she became an official member of the NFL, one of the few national clubs in the school. But the NFL was more than just making speeches and gaining points. As club President Michelle Gilbey put it, “Debate has been a fantastic experience, and I’ve learned to communicate bet- ter with other people.” Neil Myerscough added, “I’ve learned to express myself to people and tell them my feel- ings freely.” The club meetings were limited to daily debate classes (most NFL members were in debate) where in-class de- bates and speeches gave stu- dents a chance to practice for upcoming tournaments. But even with all the tour- naments and all the speeches, the NFL still managed to have fun.

Full Steam Ahead T he Clearwater High MCJROTC Unit was once again operating “full steam ahead.” With its win- ning the Sixth Marine Corps District Competition last year, the unit had a hard act to follow. Numerous activities were held such as a seven-school Marine Competition at Ven- ice, a five-school Pinellas County All Service Competi- tion, an 18-school Marine Corps District in Panama City, and many more. It was clearly seen that ROTC was very busy in keep- ing up with competitions. And winning awards were Clearwater ROTC’s special- ity. Lana Ward was a highly respected student in this Unit. She won many awards for Clearwater, and was ex- pected to continue her great achievements. Along with competitions this year, ROTC held its 207th Birthday Ceremony. Awards were given out, along with a guest speaker and oth- er activities. The competitions and ac- tivities were the highlights of JROTC. With the Unit’s achievements and goals, Clearwater’s JROTC will be successful all around and start again another year “full steam ahead.” ▼ By ROTC and Cindy Thompson ROTC 199 B.

Getting An Early Start O n the job experience is probably the best way to learn a specialized skill or job. What better way to get it than by leaving school half way through the day and working the rest of the day? This is what students did who were in either Work Ex- perience (W.E.), Distributive Clubs of America (DEC A), or Diversified Cooperative Training (DCT) classes. Many of these students worked now in jobs that they want to make a career out of. One such student was Angela Weeks, a junior, who was in DECA. “I want to manage a gas station and the best way to do that is through experi- ence. My father owns Weeks Texaco and someday I may take over the family busi- ness.” When asked if she got into the program just to get out of school early, Angela re- plied “No, the money and ex- perience were the most im- portant reasons, but I like to leave early also.” Another co-operative work program was Cooperative Business Education (CBE). CBE, unlike WE, DECA, or DCT, enabled students to train for their future in the business field. This included such jobs as receptionist, medical secretary, legal ste- nographer and office manager training. This class was taught by Mrs. Clegg Miller. WE, DCT, DECA classes pre- pared students for the world of work. They encouraged students to remain in school while also developing on-the- job-experience. Mr. Eugene Risner taught classes in Marketing and Merchandising. Classes were related to the job on sales techniques, store procedures, store policies and sales pro- motion. Marketing and Mer- chandising II was mainly for students interested in auto mechanics, auto body repair, photography and cabinet making. This class was simi- lar to DCT, taught by Mr. John Roberts. Many thought that cooper- ative work programs were only for students who wished to leave school early, but were really full of career minded teenagers who wanted to get an early start in the working world.

The club sponsor for the past 10 yrs. has been Ms. Clegg Miller. She commented that, “Free Enterprise was stressed and experienced on the job by the members since they all have jobs in offices.” There were many reasons stu- dents join FBLA. When asked why she joined, Polly Stoeff replied, “So that I could work in the business world to get the education I needed and the responsibil- ities, while still attending school.” Lin Harris said, “Mainly because I wanted a professional experience be- hind me and establish a good foundation for my future in the business world.” The FBLA members were involved in many activities. Darlene Green explained, “In this club you can train to be a Payroll Clerk, File Clerk, Purchasing Clerk. We also went to FBLA meetings, had fashion shows, and sometimes went to breakfast once a month real early in the morn- ing . . . Also in the FBLA world we had Employee and Employer banquets and din- ners.” A general feeling shared by the FBLA members inter- viewed was their respect and admiration for Ms. Miller. Athena Kampouroglou summed it up the best — “Ms. Miller became like a best friend to everyone in this club, because if someone was sick or downhearted, or upset about something, she talked to them and she always man- aged to put a smile on some- one’s face.” ▼ By Antoinette DiLiberti Usherettes C rowded basketball games and masses of bodies crunched together at football games were a common sports season dilemma. The Usher- ettes did a fine job of direct- ing order into these scenes of confusion. The Usherettes broke tra- dition in several ways this year. Their uniforms took on a casual appearance. Every- one wore crimson overalls with white shirts. For the first time, new Usherettes were ac- cepted during basketball sea- son. But the biggest change was having male ushers. “I think it’s great; they help a lot by taking care of the people,” said Carolyn Peterson, an Usherette member. Sponsor Mrs. Stout, Cap- tain Cyndi Boswell, and Co- captain Delores Young planned many activities out side of the usual school func- tions. The annual usherette banquet was held at the be- ginning of March to induct new girls and say farewell to the six graduating seniors. A Christmas party was held, and several get togethers were planned such as picnics and beach parties. Even though most people thought of Usherettes as only keeping people out of the Re- served Section at football games and off of the courts at basketball games, these were not their only duties. They were needed at assemblies, PTA meetings, and at gradu- ation. After making many im- provements, the Usherettes proved that they were a vital part of the school. ▼ By Sue Espey Usherettes 203 Usherettes Usherettes: Front Row — De- lores Young (Co-Captain), Cyndi Boswell (Captain); Sec- ond Row— Darlene Franklin, Sonja Campbell, Tricia Weg- larz, Kim Johnson, Carolyn Pe- terson, Gwyn Evans, Althea Belser; Last Row— Nicole Varner, Traci Roper, Dawn Bell, Donna Pitts, Kris Powers, Hol- ly Williams, Ingrid Eikeland, Kevin Bell. ettes’ duties.

Karen Wacker and Julie Stewart play the music for the Winter Con- cert. Perfect Harmony H ave you ever wanted to bring a stereo to school? Some felt the urge to bring a stereo to school and play it for the sake of hearing great mu- sic. Rather than lugging a bulky stereo around school, many students found it easier to walk by the chorus room and hear the different CHS choirs singing and adding their own golden touch to the music. The chorus room was not the only place these groups could be heard. Throughout the year the choral depart- ment attended and held events such as the PTSA open house, the Winter concert, the Freshman concert, the Disney World Candle Light Processional, a Pop Concert, and the Southeastern U.S. Competition, not to mention numerous winter concerts by Windsong and Headliners. Mrs. Jeanne Reynolds, the choral director, had good rea- son to be proud of her stu- dents, especially the ones which participated in the All State Choir. These select groups of students attended this special event held in Jacksonville Beach. These students and the rest of the chorus provided the school and community with entertainment throughout the year.

One must possess this to be a member of the band or a vocal music group. Both groups achieved much recognition. The Marching Band, which in- cluded the Tornadoettes, at- tended a band competition. They traveled to Sarasota on November 20th and received a Superior ranking. The Tor- nadoettes, at their summer camp in Deland, were award- ed Superior in Dance and March. Jackie Barratt and Tammy Brooks were high achievers, winning three rib- bons each in jazz, marching routine, and pompon routine. The Tornadoettes were awarded individual awards at their end-of-the year banquet in January. Christmas was an active time for each group. The band was invited as the only band to play in the Dunedin Christmas Parade. They also participated in Clearwater ' s annual Christmas Parade. The Concert Choir taped an audition and was chosen to appear in Disney World’s Christmas Candlelight Pro- cession on December 12th. With the Christmas rush over, organizations concen- trated more on the competing side of entertaining. In the spring, the Band went to con- cert competition. The choral groups entered several com- petitions. In April, they had an opportunity to go to either Orlando or Six Flags over Georgia, depending on which they could afford to attend. Windsong participated in En- semble Day held at Osceola High School. The couples performed in front of profes- sionals from the University of Miami, and were critiqued in | the quality of their perfor- mance. The addition of the new band and choral rooms added immensely to the quality achieved by this year’s music students. “The new facilities helped boost spirit and en- thusiasm so everyone cooper- ated and put forth their best effort to give a good perfor- mance,” stated Windsong member Jeff Drobney. ▼ By Sue Espey Livening up Tornado Tales, the Headline rs take third place in the competition. nd A Country Boy” are Yvonne e- Howard, Kristy Hillman, Carla r- Courson, Patti Dunn, and Sta- te- cey Waterbury. ’m Feature Don W.

Changing Key S taring up into the stands, the clarinet player adjust- ed his uniform and made last- minute tune-ups on his in- strument. As the drum major signaled, members scam- pered into the final formation and prepared to play the first song. This scene occured before every football game. The ever-faithful band was always on hand to add the familiar spirited tunes to games and occasional morning classes right before especially big events. Many changes contributed to the success of the Clear- water High School Tornado Marching Band. The major innovation was the comple- tion of the new band room. “The new room is so much nicer for changing in after the games that it has really helped boost our moral,” said Kim Austin. A new drum ma- jor, Jay Summy, was selected after the surprise resignation of two-year drum major Wen- dell Williams. Along with the arrival of new hats for the uniforms, another transfor- mation occurred — attempt- ing to get the whole band to dance while on the field. The Tornado Band was ex- tremely active throughout the year, starting with band camp in Starke, Florida. Members trudged through hours of marching and playing under the blaring sun. But the work paid off during band competi- tion November 20 in River- view, Florida. Small flag twirler Beth Allard stated, “Practicing is a lot of hard work getting ready for games, parades, and competition, but in the end, all our hard work pays off.” And it did in- deed. The reward was taking a cruise to the Bahamas over spring vacation. The whole band played on the cruise ship. Anticipation of this ven- ture made it much easier to get through the less exciting events such as the Christmas and Fun and Sun Parades, a political rally, and the anni- versary of Sunshine Mall. Many events highlighted the year for the band. But throughout the excitement the thick and the thin, the band survived. Once again, they proved what an out- standing asset they were to the school. ▼ by Sue Espey Bryn-Alan 208 Band H o c Pounding out the beat to a fa- miliar tune of their half-time show are Scott Collins, Jimmy DeCesare and Scott Wilson.

In fact, most organiza- tions could not survive with- out some means of earning money. Dues alone usually did not cover the necessary expenses of most clubs. The perenial favorite of most clubs was, of course, M and M’s. As usual they proved to be a weekly best-seller. The senior class was among the first group to sell M and M’s, starting in October. M and M sales continued throughout the year with National Honor Society disposing of the last boxes in March. Car washes were another popular source of earning money. Many things were sold by organizations at certain times every year. In the fall, for in- stance, the junior class sold spirit hats, and the Torna- doettes continued their sale of spirit ribbons and buttons throughout the basketball season. The Aqua Clara also sold spirit buttons having a color picture of the varsity football team. Student Gov- ernment provided enthusias- tic fans with red and grey pom pons. Spring brought the re- turn of carnations to school in a Key Club fund drive. Secre- tary Ann Wilkins stated, “Selling carnations is an ex- cellent fund-raiser for the club, plus it is enjoyable for the whole school.” On Valen- tine’s Day, Clearlight sold messages for an Issue. The Computer Club returned to computerizing Christmas cards. Gummy Bears re- mained the traditional candy sold by the German Club in November. Some new products hit the school this year. Bumper stickers bearing the slogan,” Clearwater Tornadoes — the REAL CHS!” were sold by the Key Club. For Halloween, the Tornadoettes supplied pump- kins filled with candy for $1.00 to anyone who wanted to purchase one. Seat cush- ions from last year continued to be sold by the varsity cheerleaders. They were also limited to selling chocolate instead of lollipops or gum. The chorus presold holiday gift items such as candles, miscellaneous household items and other holiday gifts. The average student who didn’t happen to be a million- aire often found himself broke. Almost all day, every day, someone would ask him to buy something. After buying M and M’s and holi- day messages, there was not much money left for the weekends. But the consumer benefitted as well as the seller. ▼ by Sue Espey Showing their school spirit, Robert Wallace, Laura Hutchinson and Laine Klein wear football buttons sold by the Aqua Clara. 0 1 Feature 211 Feature During a pep rally, Kenzel Ha- gaman leads the crowd in a cheer. Entertainers T he crowd gazes up at the stage in anticipation. Fi- nally the play begins. Every Thespian, no matter how ex- perienced, has some stage fright. And whether the crowd is watching a play, a chorus show, a debate tourna- ment, or the half-time show at a football game, the perform- ers will more-than-likely get the jitters. However, everyone overcame this fear and put forth the best effort for an outstanding performance. Many groups were held in public scrutiny. The Drama Club, in addition to its winter and spring plays, did a skit at Tornado Tales, and per- formed at area middle schools. The different chorus groups were kept busy. The concert choir was selected to sing in Disney World’s Christ- mas processional program on December 12, and held a spring musical concert. Windsong performed at the Bellevue Biltmore. The Debate Team was espe- cially strong. NFL students took top honors during the Student Congress and other tournaments. ‘Tm really proud of the kids,” said Mr. Anderson, NFL sponsor. “Many students have over- come their shyness and turned into excellent speak- ers.” Cheerleaders, of course, were always in the spotlight. However, they had turned to a more community service image. For example, they held a children’s cheerleading clinic. Playing in the half-time shows was only one duty of the Marching Band. One spir- it-rousing task was playing in the halls before the big games. Outside obligations included playing at malls, and in pa- rades. In April, the whole band went on a cruise to the Bahamas to play for the Nas- sau government. “Everyone had a great time,” stated Kim Austin, “and playing in cont.

The MCJROTC was not to be left out. They added the distinction of the color guard to sporting events. Parades, likewise, would not have been the same without ROTC par- ticipating.

Sports Division 217 Sports life Getting Into the Unsport Trying out for a team sport can be one of the most trying moments an athlete endures. T hey sleep late every morning, they never see the hour of 5:30 am because they don’t have practice at six. They don’t shave their heads to show team spirit. Most of their uniforms are substituted by shorts and a t- shirt. They’re the “un-jocks.” When sports are brought up, what does one picture? Most of us visualize the tradi- tional muscle-bound athlete dedicated to “everyday prac- tice,” who eats, drinks, and sleeps the particular sport he is loyal to. This is the tradi- tionalist. This is only one side of the sports scene. The other side, the “Un-side” of sports, is dedication, usually not even being a member of a multi-person team, but being a team in themselves. Single member teams qualify in sports like frisbee, waterski- ing, and motorcycling, to name a few. These sports are more recreational than com- petitive. The players are out to have a good time and aren’t as concerned with being num- ber one or winning. Another group of athletes that aren’t into the “sports scene” are the e xercisers. They use sports as a form of exercise such as the newly popular jazzercise, dancing, weightlifting, and jogging. They don’t necessarily enjoy exercising, so they participate in these sports that aren’t so strenuous. “I don’t enjoy team sports, and I don’t exercise regularly, but realize exercise is important. So I participate in non-competitive sports like jazzercise and dance”, states Andrea Laney. ▼ by Missy Plants Fighting for first place, in com- petition, Frank Vavrek stretch- es his lead over his trailing pack of bikers. Unsport 219 Making It O ne of the toughest chal- lenges a student had to conquer even before trying out for a team was self-doubt. “What if I don’t make it. Ev- erybody will know I tried out and didn’t make it.” This lack of confidence kept many stu- dents from even attempting to try out for a team sport. “The competition was tough. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be as good as the oth- er guys,” remarked freshman Rick Nickerson of the JV bas- ketball team. After the strenuous tryouts came the most dreaded part. It was the hours of anticipa- tion, waiting to hear the ver- dict, waiting to find out whether or not the skills and ability displayed will qualify one for the team. Tom Kane of the Varsity football team stated, “Every one makes the team.

Replaying the tryout in one’s mind, critical faults would be found with every ac- tion, every move made.

Making It 221 A s the balmy days of sum- mer drifted deeper south every day, the crisp days and cold nights of Fall moved in and seemed to get colder and shorter. On a typical Fall evening in October the first place to look for a Clearwater High student would most likely be the Jack Russel Stadium watching the Tornado team play. As the Fall season moved in a new school year, it seemed to attract with it a whole new feeling of school spirit. Most football fans welcomed the pleasant change in tempera- tures. It was much easier to cheer a favorite team on to victory when there was a cool breeze to whisk the voices of screaming fans across the field. A drastic difference was noticed the second week in October. In addition to the tradi- tional football game, Fall sports included volleyball, cross-country, bowling, golf, and the newcomer to the fall sports, swimming. Obviously, cold weather will effect the swimmers to the harshest de- gree. One cannot say very well that a biting cold wind comes as a refreshing breath as the swimmers emerge from water that dips below the 60°F mark. Julia Holmes says “the worst part is getting in the water, not out of it.” When one adds up the pros and cons of Fall sports, it usu- ally ends up half a dozen on one side and six to the other. Personal preference is the key factor. If sweating and heat exhaustion is one’s favorite pasttime, spring sports are suggested. To those who find comfort in wearing wet swim- ming trunks in the dead of winter, fall sports may delight the polar in some of them. To those who are pondering which to dive into. Is anyone interested in an indoor game of bowling? ▼ 222 Fall Sports Sports Taking a breather after a phys- ically exhausting workout, Terry Griggley rests on the sidelines.

Ashbrook Coach Nicely delivers pep-talk to the Tornadoes before the game against Hudson Cobras. Sports life Next time a spectacular play happens, remember not to give all the credit to the team. People Behind the Scenes W hen most people think of a coach, they think of a big, brawny man who spends half of his time yelling at his players and the other half drinking beer and watch- ing television sports. This is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a definition of a high school coach. A high school coach, as defined by head football coach John Nicely, was “A person who is a teacher as well as an instruc- tor, and who is interested in helping a student improve in all phases of life, both mental- ly and physically.” One of the many reasons a person would choose a career as a coac-h is the satisfaction they get in what they do. Coach Jamey Baby remarked, “I enjoy watching the kids grow, and it’s a good feeling when they get a good feeling out of what I teach them.” Although there are many more reasons coaches can give for why they enjoy their jobs it seems that being a coach also has its negative side. This can easily be seen in Coach Frank Lunn’s com- ment, “A coach is someone who puts in many hours for very little money in return.” Although the coaches seem to enjoy their current jobs, it seems some of them have big- ger ambitions. When Coach Nicely was asked what he would do if he wasn’t a high school coach, he replied, “I think I would like to play ei- ther basketball or baseball professionally.” When Coach Lunn was asked this same question his reply was, “If not coaching, I think I would like to sit on the beach and soak up the sun.” It seems many coaches have had experience playing high school and college sports. Coach Nicely played baseball and football as well as coaching in Colorado, Ari- zona, New Mexico and Texas. Coach Baby played basket- ball and baseball. He also coached at Pan Handle State University, Central State University and the John Car- roll University. Coaches were often re- ferred to as the people behind the scene. Although this phrase has some truth to it, coaches could often be seen on the sidelines helping with plays and trying to boost team spirit. Next time a spectacular play happens, remember not to give all the credit to the team. Part of the credit be- longs to the people behind the scenes; the coaches. ? by Lee Meddin Coaches 225 B.

Sweat, grunts, and lots of hard practice were being put into the daily routine of the 1982 Varsity football team. This year’s team had a very strong defense. The three out- standing tacklers were Joe Ca- sal, Mike O’Connor, and Dan- ny Webb. Jerold Miller had the most interceptions during the season. “We gave up less than 100 points this year,” said head coach John Nicely. The tense rivalry against the Dunedin Falcons was held ear- ly during the season. Even though the Tornadoes lost the game on September 17, fans were treated to a night of fine football. Halftime during the game was tied, 7 to 7. Dunedin later took the lead and won the game for the third consecutive year. Two school records were set this year. Leonard Johnson set the record for the most rushing yards gained in one game. He gained 265 yards against Lar- go.

Coach Bostic thought, “This was probably the best offense I have ever been around.” Both Griggley and Johnson rushed for over 1000 yards each during the season. This is an accomplishment not many high school football players achieve. Even more so, Terry and Leonard are underclass- men. The Tornadoes ended the season with an 8-1 conference record, and the players were pleased with this outcome. “We had an excellent season. We worked real hard during the summer getting our team ready for the season,” said senior Jeff Krier. The season ended with The Suncoast Bowl game, played against the Bradon Eagles. “This was a very special game because it was the last game of the season and the final game for the seniors.

Football Team had a good year kick off into their season. After winning the first three games, the J.V. team thought they had it made, then came the fourth game with a loss to Largo. This was very hard to take by all the team members, after starting off the season with a bang. “Inside we felt real bad but got over it by winning the next game,” said J.V. football player Mike McKinney. Even though Clearwater lost to the rival team, Largo, the Torna- does ' pride still remained. They continued to play as they did in previous games. The excellent playing by the J.V. team was due to hard workouts and school spirit by all team members. The Tornadoes had a chance for a first place rating in Pinellas County, before a grieving loss to Pinellas Park. But this wasn’t the end of the J.V. Tornado team, they set- tled down to a second place winning. It could be seen by all that this was a good team. He stat- ed “the offense wasn’t the best but we had a very good defense.” Most of the players felt they had a well organized team this year. Despite the fact that the Tornadoes lost a few games, they played a terrific season.

The boys’ and girls’ cross country teams willingly endured painful speed work on the track and up to eight-mile distance trails to make their seasons suc- cessful. The boys’ team, under the in- struction of Coach Eidson, breezed through their dual and invitational meets. The runners then went on to a third place fin- ish at conference, fifth place at district, and a somewhat disap- pointing tenth place finish at re- gionals. Their top runner, Keith Batten, the only Clearwater run- ner to qualify for state competi- tion , finished a suprising ninth at the state meet, which brought him all-state recognition. Second in Pinellas County only to Northeast, the girls’ cross-country team also had an outstanding season. With a ninth place finish at the state meet, the girls showed promise of being top state contenders in future years. “Next year we will really have something going,” stated coach Kathy Biddl e. “All the girls are returning so we’ll be strong as well as experience.” Under the leadership of captain Nancy Saunders and co-captain Regi O’Brien, the girls showed their ability to work together as a team when things got tough. “I really enjoyed working with them.

Ashbrook Power of the Mind F or a second, the crowd was silent while the server neatly lobbed the ball over the net. This scene occurred often in a volleyball season. The Lady Tornadoes played an outstanding season with a fi- nal record of 22-4. This sensa- tional score could be attributed to the team ' s intelligence and unity on the court. “I felt we made the most of our poten- tial, summarized Coach Anne Balderson. The girl ' s superior volleyball skills brought them victories throughout the season. They then continued their winning tradition by winning at the Conference match at District against Pinellas Park. Although somewhat disap- pointed at not making it to State because of a loss to Bran- don at Regionals, Coach Bal- derson stated, “I believe our achievements were greater than expected. Each year brings along with it a few changes. A major ad- justment for the team was get- ting accustomed to relying on intelligence rather than sheer power. Despite this radical alteration of team attitude toward their matches, they felt it was a successful season. Captain B.J.

Every- one, including outstanding to average swimmers and divers, worked hard on conditioning their bodies and their spirits. The captains, Annette Ste- phanadis, Cathy Crank, and Richard Jones all had one goal, to make this the best season possible by showing up everyday, twice a day for practice, having meetings to boost the spirit and hype ev- erybody up before approach- ing meets. “I thought it was really important to set a good example and pull the team to- gether,” said Cathy Crank. All of the swimmers and divers helped in the hype by wearing team uniforms, hav- ing silent days, putting up posters, wearing buttons, and putting tape on themselves with the initials “T.T.G.O.”. All of these “small” details brought the team together to make them one finely tuned machine. “Dressing in uni- forms and silent day really psyched up the team,” said Ray Biron.

This was another one of those years. The basketball team trav- eled to Ocala Vanguard for the Kingdom of the Sun tournament December 27-30th, and returned with only two losses. There they played against the toughest teams in the country. John Sail- or was the leading rebounder and made the All Tournament Team. In the tournament, the team’s two losses came from Decatur, Georgia, who had won 38 games straight, and St. John’s of Wash- ington, D.C. The Tornadoes, however, won two games, defeat- ing Hawthorne by 17 points, and upsetting the third ranked 4A team, Martin County, 66-61. “The competition was pretty rough, but I think we handled it pretty well,” said Coach Jack Wilson. 240 Boys’ Varsity Basketball T he Tornadoes played many exciting games. One of the more memorable ones was a sellout game against Gibbs High School. Though the Tornadoes lost, the game was well played, and was packed with tension and excitement from the first points scored. Coach Wilson and captain Da- vid Rudy worked together and made the season one of the best ones the basketball team has ever accomplished. Rudy com- mented, “I feel that I have im- proved more offensively since last year.” The team faced minor prob- lems such as Terry Griggley and John Sailor arrving late due to the overlapping of the football and basketball seasons. Also, Terry Griggley had a slight ankle injury that delayed him from playing basketball. The team also lacked height. Sailor was the tallest player although standing only at six feet, six and a half inches. Despite the setbacks to the team, the Tornadoes finished out their regular season with a record of 22 wins and only 4 losses. Then they headed for the playoffs, where they cruised through two games against Hud- son and Pinellas Park with large-margin wins. In the final tournament game, the Tornado team blasted Seminole 51-42 to claim their third straight Class 4A-8 district basketball title. This was also Coach Wilson’s 10th district title in his 15 years at Clearwater. It was a close game, however, with the number two-seeded Warhawks giving top-seeded Clearwater all it could handle. But by preventing Seminole from getting ahead, the team clinched the game, and advanced to regional play with state in sight. After defeating Plant City, Tampa Hillsborough High School turned to face Clear- water in the regional game. Clearwater crowd support was fantastic even though it was an away game and the fired-up Tor- nado team prepared for another victory. But as the game pro- gressed it was clear that it would be a close finish. As each point was scored the lead switched hands, and the scores were never more than a few points apart. “I was a great game from the spec- tator ’s point of view,” comment- ed coach Wilson. The hotly-contested thriller went into double overtime. De- spite sitting out much of the game with foul trouble, Terry Griggley was the leading scorer Both Griggley and Gene Taylor fouled-out in the final minutes of regulation play, but the rest of the team, led by Dana Tassone and David Rudy, pulled together and forced the game into over- time.

Ashbrook 244 Boys’ JV Basketball More Than Talent W hen anyone has interest in basketball, he must realize that to be able to play on a varsi- ty team, he must first have the opportunity to acquire skill, ex- perience, and lots of practice. The JV basketball team was a prime source in gaining the skills essential to basketball. The J V team put a lot of effort into their work, both before and during games. For any JV fan Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday nights were often spent watch- ing the JV basketball games. For the members of the team, much time was spent both at the games and at practice, which was held every day except game days and Sundays. Many of the players had good feelings about the team. One of the right wing guards, Tim Lit- tler, commented, “From the be- ginning, I felt we had a good chance. I was very glad we had such a great season.” The team’s coach, Jamey Baby, remarked, “I enjoyed my first year at Clear- water very much. It was fun working with talented and hard working kids. I was extremely satisfied!” By the end of the season the team was in second place in the county. Not only did they win nine of their last ten games, but by the end of the season they averaged 70 points a game, while their opponents scored an aver- age of 50 points aganist them. This great success was due to the entire team, but a few of the players stood out among the rest of the team. Two of these players were Leron Howard and Rick Nickerson, two of the very high scorers. Another high scorer was Gary Mink, the team’s “Big De- luxe.” He was given this nick- name by making the most charges during the season and winning a contest which Hardees sponsored for the JV team By Lee Meddin After calling a timeout, Coach Ja- mey Baby gives his team last min- ute instructions.

Griffith Definitely Not Underdogs N ever before had there been anything quite like the girls’ varsity basketball team. Despite their reputation as un- derdogs, the girls piled up win upon win. And when they had finished, they had advanced far- ther in post-season play than any team in the history of Clear- water girls’ basketball. As often happened in sports, injuries were the stumbling block to the beginning of the season. During the team’s first few games, some of the best players warmed the benches. Monique Ellis, a senior and the team’s leading rebounder, was out with a fracture in her leg. Vera Carson, also a senior, for- feited some games due to torn ligaments. But time soon mend- ed the injuries, and the team was back in the courts winning game after game. “We have a good team and we’re near the top. When we play to our capability, we are definitely a good team,” stated junior team member Soni Hol- lester. B.J. McCauley, a senior who was one of the team captains and a strong player, was out early in the season with a dislocated shoulder, but came back to help lead the team on to victories. Kim Mason, senior, was the oth- er team captain and was the leading scorer on the courts. These two girls helped the twelve member team defeat many opponents. The coaching staff consisted of head coach Anne Balderson and assistant coach Larry Parks. Without a good coaching staff even the best team would be in- complete. Soni summed up the team’s feelings by saying, “They worked well together as coaches and stood beh ind us 100%.” The team had many victories. The hardest game won was against Pinellas Park, who proved extremely talented. But along with the victories came a few defeats. The worst defeats came from Clearwater Central Catholic and Seminole. Then came the tournaments. Although Seminole was picked to win the district, the CHS girls captured the title. This ad- vanced the Tornadoes to the Re- gion IV tournament, where they defeated the much taller Plant City team. Finally, in the sec- tional game which would send the victor on to the state tourna- ment, the girls were closely de- feated by second-ranked Orlan- do Evans. “Most of our girls played very well throughout the year, and we feel we had a very successful sea- son,” stated coach Anne Balder- son. y Front Row: Pam Demps, Debbie Panossian, B.J.

Secondly, each girl’s report card was turned in to the coach. If a player had three F’s in any one report card, the girl was off the team. This rule did result in a couple of girls being dropped from the roster in mid- season, but the team’s perfor- mace didn’t suffer. The strict rules paid off. Individual achievements piled up during the season. High scorers were captain Julie Oie, Angie Norman, and Blanquita LaFita. In another important of- fensive position, guards Tammy and Denise Rabe played very ag- gressively. Gracine Wright was invaluable on the boards be- cause she was a high jumper. Teamwork and skills were necessary, but spirit was just as important.

Composed of ninth and t tenth grade students, the play- ers worked hard to develop their personal talents. At the same time they had to learn to work as a team. Strict discipline was essential in the development of the team. Coach Broom, in his first year of coaching at CHS, had a few sim- ple rules for the girls to follow. First, if a player missed a prac- B. Ashbrook On the Way Up T he rhythmic slamming of tennis balls echoed through- out the tennis court. This sound was a common occurrence at the McMullen Tennis Complex. The Tornado tennis team practiced there nearly everyday. It was not required of the team members to practice everyday, but to keep in shape and keep their games up, most players did. The practices involved running a short dis- tance and then drilling or play- ing a challenge match lasting about three hours. The girls were led by Kathy Rodgers, and Kim Rodgers. Kim Rodgers commented, “We didn’t have very many girls, but the top ones we had were very strong. The others improved their games tremendously during the year.” Dale Ekberg remarked about this year’s boys’ tennis team, “I feel that we should do better this year than we have done in pre- vious years, because the top five guys are so close in their abilities that the position has been pretty much of a toss up.” The top five on the boys’ team consisted of David Arnoff, Dale Ekberg, Bri- an Holiday, Scott Ingram, and Curtis Ingram. With a growth in the number of players from last year’s six- teen, the CHS tennis team proved through hard work that they were ready to shoot for the top.

Al- though it probably wasn’t the most popular sport, those who bowled considered it both excit- ing and competitive. Bowling may not have re- quired one’s being 6 ' 2 and 220 lbs., but it did require great skill and agility along with lots of co- ordination. Bowling was a team sport. Each member strived for his own personal goal, but it was then combined with his team- mates’ scores for one finished product. Bowling like various other sports was played in a split sea- son; part spring and part fall. In the first half of their sea- son, the boys’ team got off to a good start by placing second be- hind Pinellas Park. But appar- ently they didn’t consider that good enough. The boys’ team came back for the second half of their season and placed first. 252 Bowling They were defeated, however, in the conference roll-off. The girls’ team was equally successful. They finished third in the first half of their season but came back for a second place finish in spring. Both teams practiced every Tuesday at Hi-Lan Lanes where their home games were held. The teams competed on Thurs- days under the guidance and leadership of Coach Lew Frad- kin. Even though the boys’ team did not win the conference roll- off, they did manage to hold the top players in the league. Brad Ashbrook maintained the best average in the conference with a 181. Second in the conference was Chris Woosley with an also impressive 179 average.

Dominant Force I n only its third year of exis- tence as a school-sponsored sport, Tornado soccer had estab- lished itself as a dominant force in the district. The team’s con- sistently good performance was achieved by many factors — some beneficial, some not-so- helpful — but the outcome was a strong finish in the district rank- ings. In his first year as a high school coach, Jim Campas was very strict with his team. The players felt this was an asset be- cause the discipline made every- one learn to work together. Many star players returned for the ’83 season. Some key players were: David Tennian, most improved player; Mike Callahan, most valuable player; Chris Kuntz, best offensive player; John Peppe, best defen- sive player; and Scott Tassone as leading scorer, to make the team a successs. But it wasn’t just the star players that made the team. The co-operation and dedica- tion of each team member made the Tornadoes as successful as they were in past years. B.

Ashbrook Along with co-operation and dedication, friendship between team members was essential to have a productive team. “One reason we play well is because we all get along so well,” said John Kuntz, captain. When all the members got along, they all worked well and played soccer the way everyone knew the Tor- nadoes could play. One obstacle the Tornadoes had to live with was the quality of the referees throughout the season. “The refs weren’t skilled as referees. They didn’t seem to know what they were calling,” stated John Peppe. The season ended with a high- ly-charged battle against Dun- edin for the district champion- ship. Even though the Torna- does lost by a close score, they were satisfied with their status as runners-up. Without skillful players, co- operation, dedication and friendship, the Tornado soccer team could not have been the team we knew them to be. They were definitely winners. ▼ By Cindy Thompson mmr s • ■’25m The team’s strongest defender, John Peppe, steals the ball from his opponent. B.

With all the soccer interest stirred up by this professional team, the sport closely followed football and baseball in popular- ity as far as fans were concerned. Consequently, soccer mania hit with a thud among many high school students — girls included. The girls’ soccer team, at first, was nothing but a group of multi-talented individuals. The season was to be used mainly for getting acquainted with working as a team rather than separate players. Yet as the year pro- gressed, the girls proved they al- ready were a team — and a very skillful one. Under the direction of coach Skip Beitzel and assistant coach Charlie Davis, the girls met five days a week, even during vaca- tions, for various drills and workouts often lasting two or three hours. “I think we all really benefited from the hard work- outs,” stated Sophie Kara- george. “The practices helped us learn to work together as a team and got us ready for some of our tougher games,” added goal keeper and co-captain Kathy O’Dell. One of the team’s toughest games was the match against Seminole in late December. Al- though defeated by the War- hawks 1-0, the girls proved they could compete with one of the top teams in Pinellas County. The girls team enjoyed great- er crowd support than it had re- ceived in past years. Although the stadium was never even close to being filled, the slight in- crease in fans was quite evident. With the team’s last game in late February, the season came to a close. The individuals com- prising the team had proved that talent and hard work, when combined, form a solid founda- tion for success in the sport of soccer. ▼ By Kelly Palms Soccer is largely a game of ball control.

Bryan-Alan Worlds Apart W hen it came to wrestling, one often thought of the antics of Dusty Rhodes and Hacksaw Butch Reed. But, pro- fessional wrestling and high school wrestling were two differ- ent worlds. For the wrestling team, many days were spent jogging and pumping iron. “In order to be a good wrestler, you must be phys- ically and mentally tough and willing to work hard,” said soph- omore Billy Steuer. Wrestling was an individual sport; one on one. “In wrestling, you don’t have your teammates out there with you. If you make a mistake, you could easily lose the match,” remarked sopho- more John Brower. Thirteen weight classes exist- ed in wrestling, ranging from 101 pounds to unlimited weight. Captain Rodney Herbert stated, “I like wrestling because it’s an individual sport and you have to work extra hard. I run at home and work out with weights ev- eryday.” Along with the wrestlers came the Wrestlerettes. Female wres- tlers? No, they were “stat” girls (girls who keep the statistics on every match and videotape ev- ery match). The six Wrestler- ettes included Carolyn Paraday, Stacey Reed, Nancy Rogers, Anne Sabin, Carol Schwarz, and Debbie Wallace. “You get to meet a lot of people and you also learn new things,” said freshman stat girl Debbie Wallace. The new wrestling coach was John Lersch. Coach Lersch summed up the wrestling season with his advice to his team. “The main thing I told them was don’t get pinned, have good sports- manship and most of all, try your best.” T By Bill Durst, Carolyn Pedulla, and Roxanne Moshonas Wrestling 259 B.

Golf was a sport which few students undertook, but those who did attempt it thor- oughly enjoyed it. The golf season was com- prised of two halves in much the same manner as bowling. In the first half, led by number one player Steve Hand, the Tornado golf team did suprisingly well. The golf team maintained a low profile due to a rule at their home course, Clearwater Coun- try Club. No crowds were al- lowed on the course to prevent damage to the green and inter- ference in golf matches. In a golf match, the top five players from each team compet- ed against one another. Clear- water ' s top five players included Steve Hand, senior; Andy Gamsby, junior; Lee Manly, freshman; Steve Cass, sopho- more; and Phil Lawson, senior. Most suprising among the top five players was the perfor- mance of freshman Lee Manly. Rarely had a freshman made such an impression on the team during his initial season of com- petition. Coach Merle McCracken stat- ed, “The team members im- proved their scores tremendous- ly as the season progressed. In addition to its fine perfor- mance this year, the golf team can look forward to a successful next season because three of its top five players are returning, led by Andy Gamsby. T By Tom Coffee B.

Each event was individual and each athlete strove for personal achievement. � Yet the team effort remained the top interest in the minds of all. Each event was categorized as either track or field. Some stu- dents standing out in the field events were Reynolds Miller, hurling the shotput and discus, and Spencer Geren, pole vault- ing over 13 ' 4 before the start of the season. “Pole vaulting offers me a challenge and a goal to strive for,” stated Geren. Also achieving in other field events were sophomore Tony Brown, junior Lonnie James, and junior Keith Owens. These young athletes specialized in the long jump and the triple jump. The triple jump, which was a hop, a step, and a jump, was rela- tively new to the high school program. In its third year, this Olympic event proved quite suc- cessful. The Clearwater track stars were led by senior Keith Batten. Many considered Batten one of the best distance runners Clear- water High School had ever seen. His time of 9:38 in th e two mile was outstanding for a high school student. Also standing out on the track, Terry Griggley proved to be the top sprinter. One difficulty unique to this season was whether baseball players could also run track. The legality of this was not in ques- tion; the problem came in con- flicting schedules. Those playing baseball and running track were Leonard Johnson, Bernard Dix- on and Tom Leigh. A team is only as good as its individual members, and this holds especially true for a track team. With all the individual talent it possessed, the CHs| track team continued its win- ning tradition. ▼ By Jeff Samsel Flying through the air, long jump- er Keith Owens stretches to gain a few extra inches. rront row: Phillip Lawson, Adriano Alcoz, Lonnie James, John Jenkins, Kenneth Hayslett.

As you strive to get to the finish line, you keep telling yourself, “I can do it.” According to junior Carmen Alcoz, “you have to be truly dedicated and work hard. Out of the whole year, we only two weeks’ rest.” Runners like Car- men realized that staying in shape year round was manda- tory to having good times during the spring track season. One of the stars of the track team was B.J. McCauley. She was one of the few seniors that ran for the Tornadoes. McCau- ley holds two records at CHS, the 330 hurdles and the 110 hur- dles. “It takes a lot of hard work. Out of the three sports that I play, it’s probably the toughest,” she stated. A good team needs lots of strong individuals, and the Lady Tornadoes didn’t lack talent. Ju- nior Carmelia Payne excelled in the 100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, and the 440 relay. Kim Mason was strong in the 440 yard dash and the mile relay, and Valerie George was a con- tender in the long jump. Rox- anne Robbins, who also ran cross country, specialized in the one and two mile distance races. In the beginning of their sea- son, the girls held a run-a-thon. Its purpose was to raise money for trips during the season. The girls ran for 24 hours straight, switching off every mile. , The team was coached by two very experienced people, Mrs. Kathy Biddle and Mr. Dick La- cey. Biddle had coached the Lady Tornadoes for the past four years. Mr. Lacey had been helping the sprinting section of the track team for the past three years, in addition to 25 previous years of coaching elsewhere. Dick Lacey was also a member of the Clearwater Y Runners Club which co-sponsors many races in the Tampa Bay Area. With the guidance of these two coaches, the track team combined their efforts, survived the many practices, and stayed on the track of a winning reputa- tion. ▼ By Carolyn Pedulla and Bill Durst , Front row: Pam Demps, Carmelia Payne, Lourdes Alcoz, Andrea Daly, Alisa Acostz, Heather McDaniel, Melinda Kurgas, B.J.

Ashbrook Batter Up O ne of the sports exclusively set aside for girls, softball gave girls a chance to prove their athletic abilities. Softball was after all, just as strenuous a sport as the boys’ traditional baseball. Many of the team’s members went straight from basketball season into softball. “It will take time to get the girls from basket- ball shape into softball shape,” commented first-year coach Ja- mey Baby. That was why hard work and determination were major fac- tors in this year’s season. Former members that returned for the season continued to uphold their reputation. Among those members were Amy Griebler, Lori Rutcha, and Lisa Williams, all of whom had lettered last year. The -team was led by senior shortstop Lisa Williams and left-fielder Blanquita Lafita. Both of these girls were among the team’s top hitters and field- ers. Other outstanding players included Michelle Hoffman, outfield; Leigh Allen, second base; and Julie Benjamin, third base. The strong suit of the Torna- do team was defense. Bolstered by this defense, the girls hoped to improve on last year’s fifth place district finish. The future of Tornado soft- ball looked good, also. Coach Baby added, “We should be strong in every position, plus we’ll have a good distribution of ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth graders. This should plant a seed for the future of the Clearwater High softball pro- gram.” ▼ By Bridget Canavan and Tom Coffee Front row: Blanquita Lafita, Ja- mie Gelep, Tondala Murray, Gra- cine Wright, Joy Taylor, Debbie Panossian, Michele Hoffman, Julie Benjamin, Kris Griebler.

Softball 267 A Whole New Image A whole new image was cre- ated for the baseball team this year. The two factors that caused this change were a new coach and a new attitude on the part of the players. The coach, Mr. Tom Cus- mano, has had a lot of past expe- rience in the field of baseball, which rubbed off onto his play- ers. He played four years at Fordham College, then he moved on to play professionally in the Brooklyn Dodgers Organi- zation. The aces of the pitching staff were Steve Stickler, Jeff Antolik, and Keith Felden. Strong hitters were Captain Bobby White, Tom Leigh, and Dave Johnson. A strength of the entire team was a strong defense in both the infield and outfield. The team really got down to serious business this year. Dave Johnson said, “Last year we wer- en’t very serious, but this year we practiced really hard, and we wanted to go a long way.” Practice is exactly what the team did. They practiced every day for three and a half hours at Frank Tack Field. Promising newcomers to the team were Chip Hoffman, Leon- ard Johnson, Scott Fritz, and Ja- son Moore. The district in which the Tor- nadoes played was a strong, well-rounded league. The major competitors the team faced were Seminole, Countryside, Pinellas Park, and our forever rivals, Dunedin.

Planned by the Student Government Association, Clearwater High’s first annu- al Homegoing was held on March 4. The activities con- sisted of two girls’ powderpuff football games, freshmen vs. sophomores followed by ju- niors vs. seniors, male cheer- leaders, a male Homegoing Court, and a dance in the gym after the games. In November, names of people interested in playing powderpuff football were tak- en. After coaches and players were selected, the teams started practicing. Most girls only got one full week in which to practice for the game. John Peeples stated, “It was hard to be patient when I was teaching the girls something I found easy to un- derstand — football. But in the end, I was proud of the junior team.” Then came the big night. Starting at 7:00 PM, fans watched the sophomores overcome the freshmen in a 12-0 victory. These teams played two fifteen minute periods with the clock stop- ping only for timeouts. While the pep band played, the male cheerleaders entertained the crowd with pyramids as well as splits. Next came the big rivalry as the juniors pulled a stunning 18-7 victory over the seniors. The juniors and sen- iors played for four periods of eight minutes each. “I think playing powderpuff football was a lot of fun, but many people took it too seriously,” said junior player Joy Palm- mieri. During half-time of the ju- nior vs. senior game, the Ho- megoing court was an- nounced. The winners were: Ricky Nickerson, freshman; Bobby Fuller and Scott Tas- sone, sophomores; Bill Bank- er, Dominick DeVivo, Tom Leigh, and Andre Lee, ju- niors; and David Aronoff, An- drew Billiris, Paul Kurmas, Nick Sloan, and Dana Tas- sone, seniors. John Sailor was crowned as the 1983 Homego- ing King. Announcing the court was SGA President Wendell Wil- liams. Mrs. Coe appropriately crowned the King. John Tsa- crios was in charge of an- nouncing the game, and the games referees were Mrs. Kathy Biddle and Mrs. Anne Balderson. The eventful evening end- ed with a Homegoing dance in the gymnasium. A limbo con- test was held and it was en- joyed by spectators as well as participants. At the end of the evening, it was clear that Homegoing ’83 had been a success. Homego- ing at Clearwater High would be an exciting event for many years to come, j By Sue Espey Powderpuff Football 271 mm Ads Division 273 Students at CHS comprise a large part of the business of local establishments.

The businesses who advertised gained an advantage over their competitors. The Aqua Clara also had an advantage from the advertisements. Due to advertis- ing, the yearbook staff could please the stu- dent body by producing a great yearbook. The Aqua Clara staffers put a great effort into selling ads.

I Index 347 A Foundation of Tradition T radition — long established customs handed down from year to year. It forms a basis for decision-making by showing similar past decisions. Yet if tra- dition was always followed, no changes would ever occur, and society would stagnate. So American strives to build from tradition. It takes the knowledge of the past and adds to it new elements of the present, keeping the country chang- ing constantly. Throughout the year, these changes in our nation were quite evident. They occurred on both the na- tional and local level and provided an action-packed year. A major occurrence in England was the birth of Prince William to Prince Charles and Princess Diana of Wales. The prince, born on June 21, 1982, was the first royal child to be born at a hospi- tal rather than the palace. The smash motion picture of the cen- tury was E.T. — The Extra Terrestrial . An estimated one out of every eight Americans saw the movie, making its gross profits exceed those of Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark. A dark note in the year occurred when Argentina and Great Britain went to war over the Falkland Islands. These British — administered islands had been seized by Argentina, but when the conflict passed, Britain again had control of them. Although a state of martial law was still over Poland, and its workers contin- ued their labor movement, the release of Solidarity leader Lech Walesa was a sign of better conditions to come in the fu- ture. A major conflict in America was a na- tional football strike. American football fans were furious about the strike which lasted much of the regular season. The players and owners finally reached an agreement, and a shortened season be- gan. The Tampa Bay Bucs had their mo- ments of success and reached the play- offs only to be defeated again by Dallas. Later, the Miami Dolphins faced the Washington Redskins in Superbowl XVII on January 30, 1983. Washington proved to be the team with greater ex- pertise and scalped the Dolphins 27-17. The discovery in Chicago of deadly cyanide in extra-strength Tylenol medi- cations plunged the entire country into a panic. “Copy-cat” episodes occurred, and poison was also found in a bottle of Lavoris in Bellair, FL. Health officials considered banning Halloween, which was just a few weeks away. In some towns The Prince and Princess of Wales pose at Kensington Place with their infant son, Prince William. this ban was put into effect, but trick-or- treaters nationwide were greatly de- terred by the poison episodes. For baseball fans, the World Series ar- rived, and the St. Louis Cardinals de- feated the Milwaukee Brewers in the seventh game on October 20, 1982. A disastrous setback in the sport of boxing took place when Korean boxer Duk Koo Kim received fatal head injur- ies in a lightweight title fight with “Boom Boom” Mancini. Although open heart surgery had be- come commonplace, modern science took it one step further. Barney B. Clark successfully received an artificial heart at the University of Utah Medical Cen- ter, opening new doors in the field of or- gan transplants. Ronald Reagan entered his third year of presidency, but his policy of “Reagan- omics” still had not taken a firm hold of the economic situation. Unemployment figures climbed to new heights as over twelve million American workers were forced to scour the country searching for jobs. Gas prices, however, once again dipped below the dollar per gallon mark in many cities. A booming stock market als o showed cont. After defeating the Milwaukee Brewers in the World Series, the St. Louis Cardinals, including Mike Ramsey (5), celebrate on the field. z ) j M ) I i 348 Closing Closing 349 Football fans protest the first in-season strike by NFL players by picketing in front of the home of Gene Upshaw, president of the NFL Players Association.

Ash brook Walt Disney’s Epcot (Experimental Proto- type Community of Tomorrow) proved to be a major Florida attraction. The large sphere which contains Spaceship Earth has become a well-known symbol of Epcot. By attempting to set a record by sitting for 399 days on a pole, the outgoing Dave Werder added character to the Jersey Jim Towers’ parking lot. Clearwater High School students and fac- ulty mourned the death of band director Don Hacker. In a memorial service, Jay Summy and Dwight Irwin present a memo- , rial picture of Mr. Hacker which hangs in the band room. Finally defeated by opponent Tom Wood- ruff, Clearwater High teacher Jim Campas fought a tough campaign to win the office of state representative. An extremely controversial city issue was the closing of Clearwater Beach to teen- agers at night. Students in the North Palm Pavilion parking lot defy the city commis- sion’s authority to deprive them of their hangout. HSmbr J. Griffith t I 350 Closing A Foundation of Tradition L. Meddin promise of a better economic future. Prices on the New York Stock Exchange soared to record levels, reaching a new all-time high for the Dow Jones Industri- al Average. A major change in Russia was the death of Soviet President Leonid I. Brezhnev. Other nationally noted deaths were those of Henry Fonda, Princess Grace of Monaco, Ingrid Bergman, Marty Feldman, and Karen Carpenter. While America was having her ups and downs, the field of science technology continued to keep the country a major world power. New MX defense missiles were perfected with the millions of dol- lars allotted to the defense department. Europeans protested these missiles which were to be based in their coun- tries. America continued to lead in the quest of space exploration as. the space shuttle Columbia made repeated ventures into orbit with safe plane-like returns. The nation had built another year onto its tradition of world supremacy. Notable events on the local level also took place throughout the year, as Clear- water added to its collection of tradi- tions. The arrival of summer was accompa- nied by the arrival of pole sitter Dave Werder. From his perch next to Valle’s on Gulf-to-Bay, Werder attracted many citizens’ attention while he tried to set a 399 day polesitting record. The opening of Epcot was a long awaited event for Flordians and tourists alike. Thousands visited this addition to Walt Disney’s Magic Kingdom, and many groups from Clearwater and other high schools organized field trips to see the attraction. Due to rowdyism and vandalism at Clearwater Beach, Clearwater city offi- cials closed the beach after 9:00 PM to teenagers. This ruling was greatly op- posed by the teenagers who considered the beach their weekend hangout, and they continued visiting certain beach areas after curfew hours. To rectify the continuing problems, the City Commis- sion paid two officers to patrol the beach for four hours a night, three nights a week for 25 weeks. However, Pier 60 parking lot was again opened to teens who wanted a place to gather at night. A new football league, the USFL, was organized to provide year-round football to fans. The Tampa Bay Bandits were one result of this new league which was comprised of veteran players and players cut from other teams. Celebrities made their appearance in Clearwater when Loni Anderson and Burt Reynolds, part-owner of the Tampa Bay Bandits, purchased a condominium on Indian Rocks Beach. At Clearwater High, band members, students, and faculty were saddened by the death of band director Donald W. Hacker. A memorial service was held and many CHS students attended the funer- al to pay their final respects. Another dark event at CHS was the vandalism of the school on January 31, 1983. Lockers and their contents were destroyed and graffiti was splashed onto walls near the office. Yet Clearwater High ended the term in better shape than when the year be- gan. As the school rolled through its 76th year, the renovations were necessary to keep the school up-to-date, but the changes were built onto a foundation of tradition, y By Kelly Palms Closing 351 Aqua Clara Staff Editor Assistant Editor Student Life Editor Advertising Managers Sports Editor Sports Assistants Faculty Editor Academics Editor Faculty Academics Assistant Clubs Editor Senior Class Senior Class Assistants Junior Class Sophomore Class Freshman Class Business Manager Kelly Palms Roxanne Moshonas Jeff Samsel . .
