Clearwater High School - Aqua Clara Yearbook (Clearwater, FL)

Text from Pages 1 - 368 of the 1987 volume:

Though small and inconspicuous on the outside, lock- ers gave students a personnal space in a school of over 2000 people. They not only held the books and folders which led students through their academic careers, but also were a place to leave notes, hang pictures, and meet friends. Bridging the gap be- tween school and student life, lockers symbolized the In-Between Days. In preparing a theme for the 1987 Aqua Clara, staff members desperately searched for something which made the school year unique. But the more they searched, the more they realized that this year was very similar to past ones. Sure there were little changes, such as new tardy policies and the School Board’s extensive publicity of the dangers of crack cocaine, but no particu- lar peculiarity seemed to distinguish 1987. Indeed, the most unique feature of the school year was that it wasn’t overly unique! Clearly, with changes in the past, and surely in the future, CHS was living out The In-Between Days.

In-between school and their cross country meet, juniors Lee Warner and Scott Olenych take the time to do some studying for their AP Chemistry class. With the lazy days of sum- mer over and the first bell of the school year ringing, students were back to usiness as Usual hen the 2360 stu- dents filed back into the halls on August 25, it looked as if very little had changed since June 4, when everyone had darted out of his or her last exam and started summer vaca- tion. With the completion of the new practical i N 1 E 9 T D A ued its trend toward conservatism through the instigation of “twilight detentions”. These detentions, which lasted for two hours (from 2:45 to 4:45), were given by Assistant Principals to students who commit- ted relatively serious offenses, e such as ex- cessive tardi- — ness and ex- 8 w 7 E Y S arts wing, the new ad- ministration building, and the remodeling of A and B wings, the con- struction which had haunted students for nearly two years was fi- nally finished.

In the long run, the detentions were started in an effort to decrease the number of suspensions given dur- ing a school year, a ma- jor goal of superinten- dent Scott Rose. con’t. i Opening □ 3 usiness as Usual For the first time in two years, the gradua- tion requirements had not been raised, and, af- ter three years, every- one had finally gotten used to the idea that the seven period day was here to stay. Overcrowding also re- mained a prominent problem. For over the third year in a : — row, students T 5 I N B E were faced with schedul e changes during the third week of school. These changes were deemed necessary by the county because of the plethora of oversized classes. Even away from school, things had pretty much stayed the same. Because of the 11 P.M. curfew and abun- dance of police, the beach continued to di- minish in its popularity as a Friday night hang- out. Jobs remained a high priority for students as they earned money to support their cars as well as to spend at events such as concerts, movies, or the ever-pop- ular, Friday N night football game. In all, life seemed pretty normal when classes resumed, but this in no way meant the school was at a standstill. With changes in the past and surely in the future, Clearwater High and its students were merely living out THE IN-BETWEEN DAYS. □ 4 □ Opening SCARCE SUPPLIES Because of large classes and low budgets, students in many science classes were forced to use lab supplies sparingly.

With concerts to go to, jobs to keep, and friends to talk to, student life al- ways seemed to be just inutes Away swear that clock is broken. There’s been five minutes of class left for at least ten minutes now. I’m never going to get out of here ...” The end of class, the end of the school day, the end of the week, those were the times that every worn out student impatiently await- ed. Because it wasn’t the endless schoolwork that made up student life, but rather the events that hap- pened in-between clas- stime. Events such as the Sep- tember 10 Smiths concert, the toga dance after the Gibbs game, or the fifth an- nual Clearlight Lip Synch held in the auditorium were what made up student life, in addition to staples such as holding down jobs, and socializing with friends. Undoubtedly, it was the in-between days that got students through the pres- sures of school. Those few hours after 2:34 and before 7:30, as well as the two days between Friday and Monday were the times high school life really came alive. □ student life Though no one enjoyed not know- ing where they were, occasionally getting lost was inevitable.

President Tony Die- fell spoke emphasizing pride in graduating from Clearwater High, and learning by experience. After the speeches were over Mr. Andy Anderson and Mr. Steve Gerakios called all the seniors in al- phabetical order, with Na- tional Honor Society mem- bers first. Each was given his diploma and the tassel on his cap was turned, sig- nifying graduation. After all had received their diplomas, the seniors threw their caps in the air and said farewell. □ by Chris Laursen Prom and graduation depict much planning T uxedoes, formal dresses and CHS stu- dents were not a combination seen often. But at the junior senior prom, everyone went all out to look his or her best. The prom was held at Los Fontanas on May 3, 1986. It was no small af- fair, either. The junior class officers spent hours decid- ing on prom arrangements including music and deco- rations. Junior class president Gary Cuddeback said, “It took us a while to decide on decorations. We looked through a lot of pamphlets and books that various companies sent us in order to choose.” Of course the students who attended had to plan also. Dresses and tuxedos were classic big decisions. “We must have gone to a hundred stores before I finally decided on my dress,” said Devonna Flem- ing. The day of prom was hectic for many students attending, because they wanted to look just right. “It took me about three hours to get ready for prom,” said Aida Bercea. But as the students started arriving at eight-o- clock, all the preparation seemed worth while be- cause the excitement be- gan. Adam Sancic said, “I liked the atmosphere. There was a lot of action on the dance floor, and they played some good fast songs.” After it was all over Laura Larson said, “I had a great time.” Graduation “The seniors had ex- treme enthusiasm about graduating. Whether they graduated with honors, or just made it, all were proud of their achievement,” said Graduation Marshall Gary Cuddeback. At the 1986 graduation ceremonies held in the packed football stadium, the excitement of the graduating seniors could be felt everywhere. Every one in a red gown seemed to have a glow on their faces. The ceremonies began with an openig by principal Ed Evans.

MATCHING IT UP On the day before school starts, Berta Pentabades finds a new dress to match her purple ear- rings. tarting Over Students plan image before school starts W hen the radio blared, “Only sev- en more shopping days left!” someone might have thought Christmas was only days away. But when broadcast in the sec- ond week of August, these words held another mean- ing; a new school year was just around the corner. When the final bell rang and school adjourned for the summer, many stu- dents left hoping to accom- plish such goals as getting a job and preparing aca- demically for the next year by taking SAT prep classes, and attending workshops. Others howev- er vowed to return in the fall as a different person. For most, the way to a “new and improved you”, meant change. These p changes included weight f loss as well as new hair- styles. Many also added a new wardrobe to the list. “By the beginning of September, I’m usually tired of shopping,” com- mented Carrie Font. However, the ever-com- mon disease of procrasti- nation struck hundreds of these students, and left them with only a mere week to prepare for the up- coming year. Parking lots everywhere were fuller than usual. Peo- ple packed every shopping center and mall around. “It seemed like almost the whole world decided to go shopping that week!” stated Devonna Fleming. Posters promoting back- to-school sales appeared everywhere. Radio and TV commercials constantly ad- vertised logos from such stores as Publix stating, “Get all fall school supplies here, where shopping is a pleasure.” Crowds posed a difficult obstacle at the beach also. People filled almost every inch of sand, from 10-3:00 trying to get that golden tan that eluded them all summer. “I got so tired of fighting for a parking space on the beach. Finally, I decided to just lay out by the pool at Carlouel (a private yacht club on Clearwater Beach) with my friends,” said Sarah Lynn Meyer. Some last minute tan- ners though only succeed- ed in burning to a nice shade of red. In the end, a few did ful- fill their list of goals. But whether or not students were fully prepared the school year began right on schedule. □ by Cassie Flory Back-to-School □ 11 V.

It will be a great day for all you beach lovers” This was a commonly heard weather report, the kind that beachgoers loved to hear. In preparing for the beach, many girls shaved their legs the night before. “1 have to shave my legs the night before be- cause it’s better for my tender skin,” explained Christie Leroux. Also, girls coordinated their cover up clothes with the color of their bathing suits, and made sure to brush their hair before they left for the seaside. They packed their beach bag with a towel, their favorite suntan lo- tion, a change of clothes, their hard-earned money, and probably a pair of shades. As for the guys, they grabbed a bathing suit, a towel, a radio, and their favorite tapes, not worry- ing much about their out- fits. Everyone brought mon- ey for parking meters, lunch, and maybe the rental of a jet ski. Getting transportation to the beach was usually no problem for most beachgoers. The most fre- quent way used was, of course, the car. But park- ing on the beach could be a problem in the after- noons. If a parking space was found, it cost fifty cents an hour for the parking meter. Other means of trans- portation included riding a bicycle, boat, or city bus. After they arrived at the beach, people did a variety of things. Many just laid on their towels trying to get the tan they came for. “I like to go to the beach to meet my friends and get a tan,” said Kimri Sever. “I love the water and the atmosphere of a crowded beach full of peo- ple,” added Patricia Ab- dou. Besides tanning, guys and girls played Kodima, threw frisbees, skimboard- ed, skateboarded, listened to the band at Holiday Inn Surfside, walked on the beach, went swimming, or just “bummed around.” Pier Sixty and Holiday Inn Surfside were the most popular hangouts among beachgoers. Elizabeth Reday said, “I usually go in front of Holiday Inn or near Pier Sixty.” The average lunch cost about $2.50 at the Palm Pavillion snack bars. And serious tanners bought Panama Jack sun tan lo- tions at a cost of $5.99 per bottle. As the sun began to fade, the sun worshippers went home with a little less money in their pock- ets, cleaned out their beach bags, and took a shower. □ by Guy Niemann 12 □ Beach V.

Many discover that no matter where you are , money flies when you ' re having fun A s the weekend drew near, students be- came more desper- ate for money. Although few went to the extremes of robbing a bank or hold- ing a teacher’s pet goldfish for ransom, several stooped to giving heart- wrenching pleas to their parents, siblings, and friends for more and more and more spending money. Many were accustomed OVER THE LIMIT While driving back from the beach on a Saturday afternoon, Paul Droubie is stopped by a po- lice officer for going 55mph in a 45mph zone and is fined $46. to the basic expenses relat- ed to a teenager’s typical social life: for example, movies and football games. On the other hand, some students got bored with these common activities and used their money for other types of entertain- ment such as putt-putt golf. However, the price for fun increased when “the hunger hit ya.” “I spend an average of $10 every week on food. Sometimes I stop for ba- gels in the morning before school,” said junior Erin Kennedy. Another major expense, a car, consumed a huge portion of a student’s in- come. “The gas tank of my car seemed like it was always empty because I drove my friends everywhere,” ex- plained Kathy Lialios. Many students who bought their own cars also had to pay for their auto insur- ance and make the pay- ments. The increased number of police officers who pa- trolled the streets added an extra problem for student drivers. Some found them- selves supporting the city through parking and speeding tickets. Senior Bill Glass com- mented, “I guess you could say I’ve had my share of tickets. They get pretty ex- pensive after a while.” Throughout the year, many different rock groups performed in the Tampa Bay area. These concerts provided another charge for the growing bill. “I must have seen at least four concerts this year,” said freshman Rob Pace. The price varied de- pending on where the group played: the Bay- front, the USF Sundome, or even Ruth Eckerd Hall. Of course, the popularity of the group also affected the price. “When I go to a concert, I end up spending a lot be- cause besides the ticket I buy a t-shirt and other stuff like a Coke,” continued Pace. Although students spent a considerable amount on school lunches, club dues, and class rings, the largest portion of their cash went toward after school activi- ties. All in all, most agreed that “money flies when you’re having fun!” □ by Susana Kugeares VICTORY CELEBRATION After a 17-14 football victory over Gibbs, Rose Graham, Jill Pressler, and Ann Humphreys celebrate at Capogna’s Dugout.

Spending Money □ 15 SPELLBOUND “I had no idea how large Country- side was until I drove around look- ing for a friend’s house,” said ju- nior Kim Pollick. Pollick later made a point of getting substan- tial directions before setting out on the road. LIFE IN THE BIG CITY Only twenty miles away, Tampa was a nightmare for the unfamil- iar driver. Rather than driving endlessly on instinct, Nancy Ba- ker and Nicole Marolf stop to ask directions to the Tampa Theater to see a concert. Distant paths lead unfamiliar drivers on an endless Y ou knew where the Lakeland Civic Cen- ter was. After all, you had been there just barely a year before with your older brother. Be- sides, even if you were a little bit hazy about it’s ex- act location, one of the friends riding with you could surely point you in the right direction. Right? Wrong. Unfortunately, when six- teen year olds earned the privilege to drive, they of- ten neglected to consider an aspect of driving almost as important as knowing the rules and regulations: basic geographic sense. “When I first got my li- cense, I wanted to go to Countryside Mall,” said se- nior Wendy Marich. “It wasn’t until I got behind the wheel of my car that I realized I didn’t know how to get there.” The real problems be- gan, however, when con- certs, away games, and other distant amusements attracted teenagers to Tampa, Lakeland, and St. Petersburg. While the en- tire trip across the Court- ney Campbell causeway lasted no more than fifteen minutes, the road beyond posed some serious prob- lems. Finding the inter- state, not to mention taking the correct exit off, caused problems. Senior Martha Galloway recalled heading north on 275 toward Gainesville while searching for the Cu- ban Club in Ybor City. Missing the exit, she dis- covered, was not a pleas- ant experience. Of course, turning around on a five lane highway wasn’t the easiest task in the world. To the unexperienced driv- er, Tampa itself was a road to nowhere. “My friend and I were looking for this store in Tampa,” said Eddy Green. “He said he forgot the ad- dress but remembered it had the same name as one of the presidents. That was fine until we realized that every other major street in Tampa was named after a president.” Other bordering cities drew oblivious student drivers into unknown desti- nations. One was streets and rural areas were found particularly confusing. “We spent hours one Saturday driving around and looking for this canoe site,” commented Chris Murphy. “Finally we decid- ed to just get some food and eat out by the river.” While a sense of direc- tion was not easily ac- quired overnight, those that accidentally end ed up trapped in some unfamiliar locale learned the necessi- ty of developing one. After all, the first time anyone spent endlessly carousing one of the less reputable neighborhoods of down- town Tampa was enough to scare him straight. Perhaps afterwards he would even check directions before heading out on the road. □ by Carrie McLaren C.

THE MUNCHIES The choices at the concession stand seemed endless. Chris Cane and Mike Arner deliberate over what food to buy to still their hunger during the Gulf football game. C. Laursen ociable Spectators Game-goers find entertainment off the field S urprisingly, the cen- ter of attention at football games wasn’t tackling, passing, or rushing. In fact it wasn’t on the field at all. A quick glance around the stadium revealed that the majority of student fans found their entertainment within the stands them- selves. Their natural urge to talk prevented many game-goers from watching the game. “I don’t really look at the field until I hear people cheering, otherwise I just talk with my friends,” said Ed Cole. Mike Murphy added, “I just cruise around and meet people from the other school.” Some students occupied themselves by cheering with the cheerleaders and band. “Forget the game, watching and joining in with the cheerleaders is the best part,” said Stuart Jones. In the fourth quarter of home games, cheerleaders threw plastic footballs pro- vided by Burger King to the people in the stands. Matt Tamplin said, “The highlight of the game is try- ing to catch the footballs.” Others passed time at the games by eating. These students took full advantage of the conces- sion stand. Popcorn, pret- zels, soft drinks and other food items were sold at prices ranging from $.50 to $1.25. “At football games I get an urge to eat so I usually end up spending a lot of money at the concession stand,” said Lisa Krons- chabl. The Friday night games were used as an emotional outlet by some. Groups of about ten male students of- ten painted their faces red and gray at home games. “We got the idea from college football and basket- ball games we saw on TV,” explained Nick Arakas. Silly string, brightly col- ored foamy string sprayi from a can, was often usi at games along with sig and air horns. Eric McGrail said, don’t really care about tl game, I just like to yell aij have fun to release tl pressure of the week.” Though football gam may have seemed borii to some, others found wa to have fun. □ by Chris Laursl 4 18 □ Football Games DANCING UP A STOMB Students often started dancflH the music of the band, regarcjgg of the score on the field.

Jimmy Har- rison, DeVonna Fleming, Clinton Farnell, and Susan Coleman listen as the rest of the court is intro- duced. Kicking the “Buc-kets” Homecoming Week filled with many events I t all started back at the beginning of the school year. There were people to call, dates to set, and ar- rangements to be made. SGA had begun prepara- tion for Homecoming ’86. “We decided that we wanted a more traditional Homecoming,” said Eliza- beth McArthur. “We really wanted to get the whole school involved,” she con- tinued. By the time Home- coming Week rolled around, they were ready with a variety of activities planned. Ideas for dress-up days were debated during a Stu- dent Government meeting and then voted on. On Monday, College Day, stu- dents wore paraphernalia from their favorite college. Tuesday, friends dressed alike for Twin Day. Stu- dents wore pony tails, poo- dle skirts and Wayfarers for Wednesday, Fifties Day. In celebration of Hal- loween, Thursday was Pumpkin Day. Spirit week ended on Friday with Red and Grey Day. “Usually they have the same boring dress-up days they had the year before, but this year they didn’t. Twin Day was a really cool idea. My twin brother, Matt, and I dressed alike and even switched one of our classes. Our teachers couldn’t even tell us apart!” said Ed Cole. After holding Tornado Tales the previous year in the gym, SGA turned back to tradition and held it in the stadium. Each skit and float promoted the Homecoming motto, “Kick the Buckets. (Wait a minute, “Kick the Buc-kets?” Isn’t that Kentucky Fried Chicken’s logo? Yes, but it was also the slo- gan developed for the Homecoming game against the Bucca- neers.) Interact re- ceived the best float award. Clinton Far- nell, a member of Interact, said, “We had EMCEE Even though the skits were per- formed in the stadium, not the gym, most attending thoroughly enjoyed themselves. S.G.A.

So we had to work hard.” Skit ideas ranged from Interacts “Camp Crystal” to Key club’s “People’s Court”. Headlin- ers took first prize for best skit. They performed a “Homecoming Rap”. The presentation of the court and their escorts con- cluded Tornado Tales. The court consisted of seniors Madre Barber, Susan Cole- man, DeVonna Flemming, Wendy Harrison, Laura Larson, and Debbie Roach; juniors Kathy Ford, Leslie Jensen, Sheri Weiss, and Michelle Witte; sopho- mores Nancy Baker, Heather Hegh, and Ali Meissner; and freshmen Dana Bryant and Andrea Ellis. “From the beginning we knew we wanted to have the girls arrive in converti- bles. We weren’t sure we could do it because of the rain,” said SGA President Elizabeth McArthur. This year, clubs partici- pated in Hall Decorations but had to follow a new rule stating that decorating could start no earlier than 6:00 a.m. “It was weird having only one hour. Last year clubs would be here at 4:30 a.m.,” commented Sue Taylor. Judging took place during first and sec- ond periods, with Interact coming out on top. Friday night brought the crowning of the queen, Madre Barber. After a victorious game over the Gulf Buccaneers, the dance, free of charge, began in the gym. “Since Homecoming was on Halloween, we de- cided to go ahead and com- bine the two occassions and have a Homecoming- Costume Dance,” stated Cheryl Barcenas, dance committee chairman. The dance lasted from 10:00 to 12:00 p.m. Through T.K. productions, SGA hired a disc jockey to emcee the HALF-TIME Returning to tradition, the Home- coming Court was announced at half-time at the game.

Paulett M ass Appeal i 1 VI Lip sync features diverse acts GETTING DOWN OMD was one of the groups imi- tated in the November 18th iip sync. Chance Schlesman, the lead singer, performs “If You Leave”, a hit song off the Pretty in Pink sound track. I t would have been a cold day in July be- fore musical artists Jimmy Buffett and Bon Jovi would have per- formed a show together. However, lip synch five provided the next best thing, with one of the most diverse line-ups of artists possible, even if the groups WERE only student imper- sonators. At first, Clearlight, spon- sor of the bi-annual event, were skeptical it was going to take place. LAMP pro- ductions of Lakewood High School, the producers of several bay area lip synchs considered retiring from the lip synch busi- ness. The frequent shows were reportedly posing problems for LAMP’s stu- dent operated staff. When LAMP agreed to produce the program, Clearlight staff members began to publicize the event to at- tract the largest possible crowd. By offering tickets for $3 in advance (tickets sold for $4 at the door), Clearlight secured money for almost 250 tickets be- fore the show even began. “It gave those who couldn’t afford $4 an alter- native,” said Clearlight edi- tor Martha Galloway. “Al- though we lost almost $250 from the advance sales, we made up for it by selling more tickets.” The sixteen bands se- lected by auditions enter- tained the crowd for nearly two hours with music rang- ing from classic rock to new wave. Monetary prices of de- scending value went to first, second, and third place based on costumes, use of instruments, lip syn- chronization, special ef- fects, and musical appeal. All three places went to un- conventional new wave bands, none of which re- ceived airplay on commer- cial radio stations. Sophomores David Reina, Mike Laursen, Chuck Dyer, and Curt Clark won first place and $70 for their rendition of Echo and the Bunnymen’s “Do it Clean.” “Even though we were the last act, we went ahead and just sat down after the set,” said Reina. “Winning was an unexpected shock.” The college cult band, The Smiths, with Bryan Dudjak portraying lead singer Morrissey, won sec- ond with “Big Mouth Strikes Again.” Dudjak imi- tated the self-proclaimed celibate after seeing him perform at the Bayfront Center by dancing while suggestively tugging at his sleveless cardigan sweater. The Communards, led by Blaine Alexander and Adreanna Grainer re- ceived third place for their lip synch to “don’t leave me this way”. A three-time contender for first place, Alexander developed a reputation for his graceful stage performances. “We may not have placed but I had a lot of fun,” said Erin Campbell of The Euroglider. “In fact, the minute I got off stage, I started planning for next time.” □ by Carrie McLaren 24 □ Lip Sync NICE WIG “You Give Love A Bad Name” was Bon Jovi’s first top ten song.

Brent Andberg struggles to finish an A.P. Chemistry worksheet. “V In Hot Water Many attempt to Y ou’re late to class. You didn’t do your homework and you don’t have time to study for the test tomorrow because you have soccer practice after school. Your parents want you to finish your research paper this weekend and they aren’t letting you go out with your friend to Daytona Beach. You’ll never have enough time to do what you want to and what you have to do. And you don’t know PEER PRESSURE Many times teenagers feel pres- sure from their friends. Pam Donatello, Shelly Narum, and Ashley Wyatt argue over whether or not to go to a party at Island Estates one Friday night. how much longer you can hold up under all this pres- sure. Nearly everyone faced this sort of dilemma at least once. Whether un- bearable or not, most stu- dents suffered pressure from school, parents, and friends. The school-related pres- sures of doing homework and tests and getting to class on time, collectively constituted a vicious cycle. Many students unfortu- nately found themselves caught in the middle. When late to class, they not only received a deten- tion or referral from the teacher, but if deans caught them in the halls, they were given a twilight conquer pressure detention. Erin Kennedy said, “My Lit. teacher gave me a re- ferral one day for unex- cused tardies, which it end- ed up that I didn’t even have. By talking to the dean, though, I missed most of the lecture in class and review for the test.” School also provided an added worry to some ju- niors and seniors, in finding dates for social functions. “1 couldn’t figure out who to ask to Silver-Bell, since the girl is supposed to ask the guy. I was afraid it was getting too late so I just decided to ask a good friend of mine,” said Kara Weppler. The pressure exerted on teens by their parents var- ied from student to stu- dents. A junior, Mike LaMana said, “My mom agreed to buy me a car if I got all A’s but, because of one C I have to get good grades for two more 6-weeks to get a car. Although friends usually helped solve problems, they sometimes created them. Teenage pressure came from fights between several friends or a boy- friend and a girlfriend. School pressure some- times resulted from a club or sport. In Girls Cross Country, Lynette Robbins explained that this year the pressure was especial- ly high at state competi- tion. School activities like newspaper and yearbook added to the swelling head- aches caused by deadlines and pressure. Clearlight staffer Brian Dudjak said, “After one deadline, another is just around the corner. The pressure is always on so we try to joke around and not let it get to us.” Although the stress af- fecting students did not usually result from a natu- ral disaster or their family being kidnapped, they, by no means, would say they were ‘carefree’. And, though it was a struggle un- der all the strain they somehow thought of a way to live and fight another day. □ by Susana Kugeares RUNNING WORRIES Being a first year cross country runner, Becky Palmer worries about the regional competition.

Pressure □ 27 elebration Pinellas schools mark 75 th year T he Pinellas County School Board cele- brated its 75th anni- versary with an in- spiring idea. The progress of the school district finally got the recognition it de- served. The celebration was a year-long “Diamond Jubi- lee”. It lasted until the school year ended. A vari- ety of activities highlighted the history of public educa- tion included a balloon re- lease, an outdoor concert, a Youth Festival and a for- mal dinner. The celebration cen- tered at Jack White Stadi- um where a pep rally was held. There, speeches were given by Sally Scanlan, County Council PTA Presi- dent, and Dr. Eric Whitted, Area 4 Superintendent, to explain the celebration. A week before the pep rally there was a contest held where students voted on their favorite adminis- trator to kiss a live pig. The winner of the contest was principal Ed Evans, who kissed an unwilling pig after the pep rally. A county-wide balloon lift of 90,000 colored bal- loons caused different opinions among students. “I thought the balloons were so neat because we have never had anything like that,” said Julie Dahl- hauser. Another idea to promote the Jubilee, was the “Little Red Schoolhouse” muse- um that contained histori- cal memorabilia and a 1900’s classroom that school children toured. “The red school house on wheels has the history of Pinellas County’s pro- gress and will visit every school in Pinellas County,” said Ed Evans. This celebration made students aware of the anni- versary and gave them a memory they will never forget — their principal kissing a pig. □ by Susan Wernsing 28 □ 75th Anniversary GOING UP Students from Clearwater High School released 3000 balloons in unison with 87,000 other balloons from all the other schools in Pinel- las.

Glenn Loughridge and Kara Hendry man the tables where alumni sign in on posters according to their graduation date. 1 t Night on the Town Students ' nightlives vary A s the rain pictured on the screen fell, the audience placed newspapers over their heads and squirted water guns, spraying water over the entire theater. Students found The Rocky Horror Show to be one form of entertainment on weekend nights. The Rocky Horror Show was a movie usually held at midnight at specific movie theaters. In the show, the audience participated by acting out certain parts of the movie, throwing var- ious objects around, and yelling phrases during parts of the movie. “I sneak food in like rice and prunes and even squirt guns,” said Lizz Waite. “When the rain scenes ap- pear in the movie, every- one squirts water every- where,” added Waite. Even though most movie theaters seemed barren, students were often seen with a date or a group of friends. Theaters were rel- atively empty because of the birth of many new the- aters around the area (Lar- go 8, Tri City Plaza, Semi- nole 8, Main Street, and the Plitt Theaters at Sun- shine Mall). Many of the new theaters charged prices of $4.75, but some offered student prices of 3.25. More daring students chose another form of en- tertainment; toilet paper- ing a student’s house. “I do it to get revenge and re- lieve frustration,” said Scott Voshall. A safer way to spend the night was miniature golfing at Storms Golf Range. “I like putt putt golf be- cause its always good com- petition,” said Bryce Se- villa. Individuals seeking al- ternatives to typical eve- ning activities journeyed to the Cuban Club in Tampa. The multi-purpose building in Ybor City provided a place for local punk bands to perform occasional con- certs for an all-ages crowd. “It was an adventure to a world beyond my own,” said Shelli Gouch. “It’s a place where all different people go,” added Gouch. The Belleair Causeway at night was packed with students socializing from schools around the area. “You can meet a whole bunch of different people there,” said Ashley Eaton. Some students were too busy to take part in other activities besides school sponsored events. “I don’t get out much be- cause I’m a tornadoette,” said Shelli Gouch. Although Monday morn- ing inevitably came, and everyone had to face an- other week of school, they always had the next week- end to look forward to. □ by Guy Niemann. 30 □ Nightlife WHERE TO GO Deciding what to do, Ed Cole and Ron Henkel discuss their plans for the night in front of Ed’s house.

TAKING A BREAK After shopping in Sunshine Mall, Christina Kugeras and Cristi Bas- seuner talk as they wait for their Scoop du Jour sundaes to arrive. Beach Shutdown learwater beach has long been one, if not the, most popular hangouts for students. The night hours were no exception. Students filled the parking spots, cruised the street, and played their favorite music. Chad Clark said “1 go to the beach at night be cause 1 like to play foot- ball on the beach or just hang around with my friends.” But in 1986 a new or- dinance was passed by the Clearwater City Council that closed the beach at 10 p.m. Stu- dents who went to the beach by night were an- gered by this new law. “Closing the beach isn’t fair. Where else is there for us to go?” said Joe Saphirstien. “Ordinances of this type are typically gen- erated upon the sugges- tion of police officers who work a particular area and are familiar with the problems,” said Police Chief, Sid Klien. The beach was closed because of com- plaints from beach ho- tels and businesses about the noise and oth- er problems. “The ordinance is a vital element to insure the level of tranquility on the beach,” ex- plained Kilien. Though the beach was closed at 10 p.m. which disappointed many students, they found other places to spend their night hours. □ by Chris Laursen Night Life □ 31 C.

Kim Berfield used baby shower paper to wrap a locker as a joke and also hung signs above the locker.

Sean Antle adds more chocolate topping to the fast-melting ice cream of a “record long” banana split. Celebrations mark birthdays I t was a common sight. Just an ordi- nary student on an ordinary day. Well, almost, anyway. You see her walking down the hall- way, balloon, flowers, and gifts, mixed in with the load of books she’s carrying. She reaches her locker, but something is very different today. The locker is much more colorful than usual, covered with wrapping pa- per, streamers and signs. What’s going on? You guessed it, another birth- day. Surprise parties were among the more popular ways to celebrate. “A group of friends and I had a surprise birthday party for Tina Divello. We all showed up at her house after school on a Friday. Her mother helped us with the plans and the food and everything. She was really surprised!” said Melissa Magee. “My friends surprised me with a cake at lunch and sang to me in the cafe- teria. I was so embar- rassed!” said Jennifer Ka- plan. “My birthday was the night of the Manatee foot- ball game. Before we left for the game, my friends Stephanie Voight and Taft Flittner decorated the band room and my seat on the bus. On the way to the game, the whole bus sang to me!” said Julie Case, a member of the Torna- doettes. Although a school policy prohibited using tape on any painted surfaces, ban- ners and wrapping paper mysteriously appeared on the walls and lockers of the celebrants. “My boyfriend put flow- ers and a balloon in my locker,” said Case. Others chose to cele- brate with a few close friends and relatives. Stephanie Voight said, “I spent my birthday in the Bahamas with my par- ents.” “I had a few close friends come over for cake, and my boyfriend sent me a dozen red roses,” said Missy Hodges. No matter how they de- cided to celebrate, almost everyone found some way to make their special day at least a little more excit- ing than usual. □ by Laura Larson Birthdays □ 33 34 □ Holidays C.

MOVE IT BUDDY In December, with Christmas clos- ing in, the Athletic Boosters held their annual Christmas Tree sale fund raiser. After choosing a tree, Carol Collins leads a salesman to Collin’s car. Holidays provide change of pace I olidays are days 1 throughout the year that celebrate special occurrences in history. In ancient Rome there were over 100 holidays in a year. Since we don’t ob- serve that many now, may- be that’s why we make such a big deal about the one’s we do celebrate. The first holiday of the school year was Labor Day which fell in September. This holiday gave students a chance to ease back into the academic life by afford- ing them a three day week- end after the first week of school. This year, Homecoming night was also Halloween night. Though most gave up on going door to door for candy, students did carve pumpkins and many attended the homecoming football game wearing their favorite costumes. At Thanksgiving, Stu- dent Government held a special turkey contest. Stu- dents donated money in jars that were designated for teachers. The winner, the teacher who’s jar had the most money, Mrs. Jones, had to dress up as a turkey the day before Thanksgiving. The longest holiday of the year, excluding sum- mer, was winter break. The two week vacation gave students and teach- ers time to celebrate the holiday season. The annual Christmas Tree sale sponsored by the athletic booster club was held from December 1st- 24th. Seven varieties of trees were sold with total sales near 1000 dollars. New Years was also celebrated over the winter holidays. Many organiza- tions like Interact and Key Club held parties on New Years Eve. Spring Break attracted tourists from every state in the union to the Florida Beaches. But they didn’t stop residents from hitting the beaches too. In fact many residents liked meet- ing new people from faraway places. To some students, holi- days may have seemed a day to sleep late. To others it was a time to celebrate with family members. But all viewed them few and far between because school always came back in session after the holiday ended. □ by Chris Laursen Holidays □ 35 mw§. GUITAR WORK During REM’s Life’s Rich Pageantry tour, guitarist Pe- ter Bach and the Bassist play at the Bayfront Theater. Concerts give alternative to recordings W e waited in line for the tickets. We waited in traffic. We waited for the opening group to finish. And then, finally the time arrived. The musician ap- peared on the stage and the waiting was all worth it. The concert had begun. Concerts provided an option to simply listening to the radio or tapes to hear the music one loved. Many Clearwater High listeners attended concerts during the year. A wide variety of acts came to the area bringing a concert for al- most every taste. Artists such as The Monkees, New Order, Van Halen, David Lee Roth, Jimmy Buffet, R.E.M., Elton John, Journey, and Ed- die Money, appeared lo- cally. The clothes that fans pa- raded at concerts often mimicked that of the per- former. Elizabeth Mcarthur said, “For Jimmy Buffet every- one was real casual. They wore flowered shirts and shorts like they do in Key West.” But the most popular concert attire seemed to be, “my favorite jeans and a ■ T -shirt” , as Kara Weppler said. Some concert-goers had parties before a concert to get ready for the big event. Others prepared by car pooling to the concert while playing tapes of the artist they were going to view. “Before the Jimmy Buf- fet concert people came over to my house to get psyched up,” said Sarah Lynn Meyer. Some of the lesser known artists that came in concert to the Bay area where Spyra Gyra and Da- vid Sandborne, both of whom were jazz artists. These artists were just as entertaining for their fans. Nikki Marolf said, “Da- vid Sandborne was great. He entertained so well by moving and playing throughout the audience.” Like the old proverb says, “all good things must come to an end,” and so concerts did. But the memory of them still lingered as the students flaunted their cherished concert T-shirts of an unforgettable night. □ by Julie Walkup PLAYING IN FANTASY- LAND At Disney World’s annual Night of Joy, performers entertain the crowds of people all night long.

He hasn’t decided yet.” “HEY EVERYBODY, JOHN’S HAVING A PAR- TY FRIDAY NIGHT!” Similar conversations were frequently heard in the halls and the lunch room. News traveled fast in Clearwater’s notorious grapevine. Parties usually became larger than ex- MR pected. “When the word ‘party’ is mentioned, the whole school usually finds out within two periods,” said Connie Johles. Don Morgan, who threw a party said, “I knew the party was going to be big, but I was surprised that so many people from other schools were there.” Parties attracted stu- dents because of the lack of adult supervision. Stu- dents were able to exceed their normal noise level and consume alcoholic beverages. Tanya Love said, “Most parties are BYOB, (bring your own booze, bottle, beer). People get fake I.D.’s or have friends that are old enough to buy beer or wine coolers for them.” The Clearwater Police often paid visits to these gatherings in attempt to re- duce the noise level or break the party up. “I think parties can be cool if people don’t get out of hand. People who come and drink are the reason police often bust the par- ties,” said Tony Nickerson. “Those people ruin it for people like me who don’t drink, but just want to be with friends and have fun.” Since the beach was closed at 10:00 p.m. and movies got old quickly, many students felt that parties provided an inex- pensive place to go and be with friends. People who threw the parties said they felt parties gave students somewhere to go. “It’s not like ‘Risky Busi- ness’. It’s your friends. They’re not going to steal anything or trash your house. They have respect for it. The only real prob- lem is they eat all your food,” said Ray Arnoff.

PICTURE DAYS Underclass picture days provided an excuse for both students and yearbook staffers to miss class. Eric Einfault waits while staffers Susan Wernsing and Jeff Eller fill out his receipt. 40 □ Getting Out of Class how Me the Way Out Students finagle themselves out of class T he class was interrupted as the messenger en- ■■tered the room. Every cadent sat on the edge of his seat anxiously awaiting the news. In hushed tones, the messenger spoke to the teacher. The time had come. The teacher looked up and announced, “Uh . . . er . . . Joe Boggs . . . you’re . . . uh wanted in the guidance office.” As Joe stood up and left the room, his friends wistfully looked after him. He was the lucky one, the one who got to miss the oh-so inter- esting lecture on underwat- er basket weaving. Throughout the year, students had or made op- portunities to miss class. Various assemblies were held throughout the year on subjects ranging from class rings to crack co- caine. Students also took a pe- riod or two off to take such scholastic tests as the State Scholastic Aptitute Tests (SSAT) and the Armed Ser- vices Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). “I didn’t even know at first what I was signing up for when I wrote my name down in homeroom to take the ASVAB. All I knew was I would get to miss my math class,” said Kathy Lialios. Eleventh and twelveth grade English classes missed third and fourth periods to see the play “Soldiering” by the Asolo Touring Company. In addition, passes to guidance, restrooms, and lockers gave students the opportunity to miss parts of class. One anonymous senior stated, “Whenever I sign up to see my counsel- S. Kugeares or, I always suggest to be taken out of English, my most boring class.” Pupils participating in clubs often missed certain classes. “During Christmas sea- son we gave several out-of- school performances. The only problem was some- times we had trouble get- ting our absence excused if our performance ran long- er than we had originally anticipated,” said Joy Har- lan, a member of Headlin- ers. The Clearlight staff had to go to Poynter Insti- tute of Media Studies once a month to set the type for the newspaper. Occasion- ally, yearbook staffers missed a period no t only to finish layouts, but also to help with class pictures and to hand out yearbooks. “Sometimes we have to put in extra time in order to make deadline. But, first we must get both our advi- sor’s and our teacher’s written permission before we miss any class,” said Clearlight staffer Lisa Kronschnabl. Although most students didn’t mind sometimes missing a class, some found it irritating. “Sometimes, I’ll be in a class that I can’t afford to miss and then guidance will call me up to the office. It’s really aggravating!” said Mark Phelps. Regardless of students’ reasons for missing a class, escaping the classroom scene was as much a part of school as attending class and learning. □ byCassie Flory .m ,5.1 r GO TORNADOES!

Paulett T he Last Straw Normal behavior changes during exams 4 T he alarm clock buzzed signalling the start of another school day. But there was something differ- ent about this particular day. There was a subtle change in the students. This was no ordinary day; this was an exam day. Most students dressed down for the occasion and both boys and girls alike wore t-shirts and sweat- pants. “It doesn’t make sense to get all dressed up for ex- ams because, after all, you are only here for half a day — two periods,” said De- Vonna Flemming. Attiutdes of students also changed. “Usually I’m so tired during exam week be- cause I stay up all night studying for my exams and can’t wait ’til the week’s fi- nally over,” said Kristen Beescher. Contrastingly, Skip Cline said, “I can deal with exams much easier than normal school days be- cause I know I only have two classes to go to and then I can leave!” After taking their ex- ams, normally calm stu- dents became frenzied, de- manding and ravenous! They swarmed in droves to the tables near the cafete- ria where donuts and cokes were sold by the Clear- water Band Boosters. “Last year, it was so much better. They sold dif- ferent kinds of Dunkin Donuts, candy and drinks. This year they just sold Krispy Kremes and Coke,” said Mike Wimpee. But nevertheless, the food sales were a big hit. All week, students fought the hordes of people in the courtyards not only to find a place to eat but also to socialize. During exams, local res- taurants also saw an in- crease in business. Burger King, Grandy’s and the Ba- gel Shop became popular spots for students both be- fore and after the half-day of school. “Usually after our last exam, my friends and I go out to lunch together and grab a bite to eat,” said se- nior Elizabeth MacArthur. Generally, students atti- tudes and dress adapted for the shortened exam days as local businesses thrived and new and old ways of entertainment were discovered. □ by Gary Cuddeback m DONUT DELEGATE Often because of the huge crowds surrounding the “Donut Tables , friends chose one person to strug- gle through the masses to buy food for everyone. Safely return- ing, Mike LaManna hands the donuts to Justin Sloan and Sean Lance. “THE DONUT PIT” The overwhelming hunger of stu- dents kept Band Booster mem- bers busy during exam week. Al- though some students complained about the lack of variety of the donuts, most still flocked to the courtyards to buy food. One vol- unteer hands Bill McGuirk and John Lawson their donuts and change.

Against most teacher’s advice, some students waited to the last though some succeeded in surviv- ing through all-night vigils, when the time came to take the actual test, a few had trouble staying awake.

Life goes on, right?! Right. That is ev- eryone’s life but mine. How could Mom and Dad ground me for an entire month? Especially since next weekend is the Sting concert and I have tickets too! I can’t even sneak out of the house that night — they took my car away, too! Life is so unfair.” For many unfortunate souls, this scene represents an oh-too familiar setting. The majority of students occassionally swayed from their parents ' rules and broke house rules, missed curfew or received bad grades. “It’s natural for teen- agers to rebel a little against their parents,” said assistant principal Mr. Nicely. However, regardless of whether their actions were “natural” or not, most dis- obedient teenagers suf- fered the consequences of their parents’ wrath. Some parents tried to rationalize with their chil- dren. Through treating them as adults, teenagers understood what they did was wrong. However, other parents enforced more convention- al methods of punishment such as restriction for a certain amount of time (not being able to leave the house except to go to work and school) or forbidding them the use of important possessions (i.e.: a car or a telephone). “They (parents) make me pay a certain amount of money for things I do wrong,” said Cathy Croix. “Whenever I do some- thing wrong, my parents make me write a 500-word essay on what I did and why it was wrong,” said Missy Hodges. Other times, students’ crimes were more serious and consequently, so was the punishment. Dave Hammett said, “One night I went out with a bunch of my friends. Around 2:00 a.m. (past curfew), we all decided to head back to my house and continue the party. My parents were really mad. They made all my friends leave, gave me a big lec- ture and grounded me for two weeks!” One freshman (who wished to remain anony- mous) said, “Once I came home drunk from a party. I was put on restriction for a couple of months.” Parents, too, though had their faults. In some stu- dents’ opinions, these adults who were “always right” misused their power and punished their kids for seemingly minor occur- rances such as unmade beds or messy rooms. Debbie Roach said, “I once wasn ' t allowed to go out for a weekend just be- cause I didn ' t make my bed one morning.” Some students in order to get around their punish- ment went “behind their parents’ backs”, meaning in some cases sneaking out of the house. Stephanie Safos said, “One time when I felt my parents had unjustly grounded me, I sneaked out of the house to go out with my friends. I was so nervous and excited about disobeying my parents. It seemed like forever before my parents fell asleep so I could leave without them noticing.” Erin Kennedy related that the risks of being caught by your parents are usually 50%. “If you really HAVE to go out though, its just a chance you have to take,” she added. However, in the end, contrary to popular belief, life did continue for those punished. One weekend or one month usually passed quickly. Nobody had really died from not being able to use the phone or even missing a pre-planned event (such as the Sting concert). And once in a great, great while it is said that some — a chosen few — actually do learn from their mistakes and their punishment. □ by Cassie Flory Photography by Paul Droubie and Eric McGrail THE BIG GET-AWAY Although sneaking out may seem the simplest way to get around house restriction, for some it wasn’t as easy as it sounded.

As winter came, those same fans packed the gym to watch Boys’ Varsity Bas- ketball. But what exactly did all these fans come out to see? To put the answer simply — a Tornado victo- ry. Yet, the wins that marked each sports’ season were not the outcome of merely one game or meet. Instead, they were the result of weeks of practice and work. The girls’ volleyball team’s District win over Pin- ellas Park was made possi- ble by their hours spent in the gym doing drills and sets. Likewise, the perfect record of both the boys’ and girls’ swim teams re- flected their six am week- day practices and their two hour long afternoon prac- tices. While the “big game” showed off team and indi- vidual talent, what made each victory possible was the work put in during the In-Between Days. □ sports Perfect timing is essential to the beginning of a play.

But, we played well, espe- cially at the crucial moments and won the key games we needed like Northeast and Pinellas Park proving that its not the size but the spirit of a player and the team,” said Adberg.

Football □ 57 Boys worked individually More Than A Team aish line ahead was only a mirage as he dripped in sweat ' and pounded the rugged terrain, step by step. The time had arrived to release the energy he had stored for the final and most important mile of the race. His deep concentration helped to maintain his stride as he ap- proached the finish line and broke the ribbon. Then and only then, he realized that he had won the race. This was the typical scenario of a race in a boys’ cross country meet. The main reason runners ran cross country involved enjoy- ment and personal satisfaction. However, to achieve this, cross country runners, coached by Jim Ewbank, had to attend rigorous team practices and maintain an individual practice plan. Team practices lasted from one and a half to two hours, and incorporat- ed many important running skills. These included speed workouts, long slow distances, meet preparations, weight train- ing, and five to six mile runs. On some days, runners concentrated on particular skills such as pace work on the track or interval work on the hills. Although team practices were important, individual practices were vital to the runners devel- opment and improvement. “On the weekends I run either at the beach or around Clear- water. Sometimes a couple of us get together a run to Island Es- tates from the school,” said Scott Olegych. In addition to physical prep- aration, mental preparation was crucial in determining the run- ner’s performance in the race. Each cross country runner had his own method of me ntal prep- aration. “Usually if it’s a big race I start thinking about it a week ahead of time. I think about who I want to beat and what time I want to get. Then about an hour before the race I try to relax and stretch out,” said Olegych. “I don’t think about it until the day of the race. I try to make school go smoothly so I feel good and am thinking positive,” said Fowler. Coach Ewbank also added pep talks to encourage the run- ners to strive for their maximum potential. Although the boys were expected to do better, the team experienced some high- lights to learn and be inspired from. Early in the season Sean O’Flannery, one of the leading runners, placed sixth in the Flor- ida State University Invitational. The team ended their season placing seventh at the District meet where six more points would have made them our re- gional competition. With the hopes of improving their mental skills as well as their physical abilities, the cross coun- try team chased after their goals. □ Berta Penabades STRETCH Muscles have to be thoroughly prepared to any rigorous exercise.

Susie Winter- meir and Shannon Robbins conclude an 880 warm-up run before moving on to a trail in preparation for the next meet. Girls Finish Second In State Front anked second in the state, the girls’ cross country earn strove to live up to their rating, and consistently placed among the top teams in the district. Coach Kathy Biddle said, “The team was very consistent all year. We had a lot of injuries and team members that were sick at one time or another, and someone always came through for us. The team members al- ways rose to the occasion and gave it their best shot.” Not only did the girls cross country team members race physically, but many thoughts raced through their minds as they strove to do their very best in their two mile races. Team captain Lynette Robbins said, “It’s very nerve racking waiting for the gun, but once the race starts all you can do is think about doing your very best. I work at keeping up my pace and whenever I can I try to pass the people ahead of me. I just keep in mind that everytime I pass someone I’m helping the team.” “I just love to think about do- ing my best, finishing the race, and going for a slurpee!” said Heather Martin. “The team was better this year than it has been since I’ve been running for the team. Coach Biddle worked us hard at practice, but it showed in our performances,” said Kim Kur- land. The girls practiced from 3:00 to 5:00 on Wednesdays, and Mondays, Fridays, and from 5:30 until 7:00 on Tuesday and Thurs- day evenings. “Mrs. Biddle is a very dedi- cated coach. She treats us like we’re her own kids. She does a lot to get us ready for the races, and to keep up our school spirit,” said Robbins. The five most outstanding run- ners on the team this year were: Lynette Robbins, Becky Palmer, Sandy Silva, Kim Kurland, and Shannon Robbins. These runners maintained exceptional times and led the team through a strong season. Although running was consid- ered an individual sport, the girls concentrated on working togeth- er as a team. □ by Laura Larson 60 □ Cross Country Swimmers and Divers keep Making Waves lat big red beast came to Clearwater High this aar and destroyed any- one foolhardy enough to foray into its waters? This big red beast had another more common name, the Swimming and Diving Team. Both the girls and boys blew through the 1986 season without a single loss in dual meets, the first time in Coach Pauls coach- ing career. A great deal of their success could be readily attribut- ed to their almost maniacal dedi- cation to achieving this astound- ing feat. “The coaches worked us really hard and they want the best for us. They also know we have what it takes inside to be sucessful, that is why they push us so hard,” said Eric McGrail. The Swimmers and Divers de- voted themselves to a grueling schedule of practices in order to increase both endurance and speed. These practices began at 5:30 on weekday mornings last- ing until the beginning of school, in the afternoons until 5:00, and also on Saturday mornings. All the hard work paid off, though, with resounding victories for both the boys and girls teams at the district meet. The district title was contested between fif- teen teams from Cape Coral to Sarasota Riverview. “They really did a great job, I am very proud of what they ac- complished at districts,” said Coach Paul. Another fact in the team’s suc- cess was the depth of their ranks. Sophomores and freshmen made up a great deal of the team and proved very helpful. Despite the loss of James Berry for disciplin- ary purposes, the Juniors and Seniors on the team helped culti- vate the talent of the freshmen and the sophomores by providing them with stable leadership and a guiding hand. “I am going to miss more of what she (Amy Mu- dano) did outside of the water than what she did in the water. She led the younger kids in the right direction by displaying good grades, manners, and the right attitude,” said Coach Paul.

Ev- ery girl maintained a positive atti- tude throughout the entire season,” said Coach Anne Balderson. This years team was very suc- cessful due to their work at prac- tice. They worked at improving their setting and hitting which proved valuable in their victories during the season. The team con- cluded their season with a 29-2 re- cord, and won districts by defeating Pinellas Park. The girls went on to regionals where they were defeated by Sarasota Riverview. “The things that pleased me the most about the season was the girls determination and will- ingness to work. Sometimes they wanted to stay and practice long- er than I did. They all held a posi- tive outlook towards what they did and were also great competi- tors,” said Balderson. Teamwork was a big factor in the team’s successful season. The team was well-balanced with good defense and good offense and all of the girls were about the same height. “We worked hard this season and it was a good year. Coach Balderson always said when we were down to stay tough and when we were up to stay tough- er,” said Jennifer Owen, a senior player. Jennifer Owen was named MVP of the Pinellas Conference and will be missecj when she graduates with other senior play- ers Tess Nelson and Laurie McGinn. “It’s always hard to predict the success of next year’s team. We had wonderful senior girls and I hate to see them go. But I feel we will still have much talent and will be a strong representative in the conference next year,” said Bal- derson. After another season of girls’ volleyball, the senior members graduated leaving gaps in the team for up and coming players to fill, completing the ever-pre- sent cycle of high school sports. □ by Gary Cuddeback BUMP Concentration is a crucial part of the game of volleyball.

But, even without this, the team competed with a great amount of determination and pride. Working to perfect their games, the golf team practiced for two and a half hours a day at the team’s home course, Clear- water Country club. Scott Voshall, Tim Hamilton, and Tim Kelly paced the golf team with outstanding perfor- mances this season. This includ- ed year low scores of 40 by both Scott Voshall and Tim Hamilton. They also saw new leadership with Coach John Lersch. “Even though his practices were hard, he really helped us, and we had a lot of fun,” said Andy Kruck. Most people didn’t understand how golf scores were tallied up. It was a simple process though, the four best scores from the five starting golfers were added to- gether for the total. The golf team finished tenth in the conference with a 8-16 re- cord. Coach Lersch said, “We had a decent season, however next season we’ll have to develop a lot of new talent due to graduation.” Therefore, the golf team, through playing with great pride and determination had a fun sea- son. □ Vance Paulett Golf Team: Coach Lersch, Mike Garvey, Andy Kruck, Tim Hamilton, David Diefell, Tandy Little.

They had Sean Mears, a leading dunker. They had Ben Floyd, they had Charles Free- man. Then, those players gradu- ated and left behind an inexperi- enced team. They were the Boys Varsity Basketball Team. ‘‘Last year’s team was an ex- perienced veterans team. This year’s team was young and inex- perienced,” said Coach Rudy Coffin. Despite the team’s lack of ex- perience, it did have some ‘star’ players. Allen Williams led the team scoring up to 30 points in a game. For the first time in the school’s history, the Varsity bas- ketball team had a freshman player, Marvin Jackson. In addi- tion, Paul Harvey, the season’s surprise, surpassed everyone’s (including Coach Coffin’s) expec- tations. The team ended its season with a record of 6 wins and 15 losses. The record at the begin- ning of the season was 7-15, how- ever, the basketball team was forced to forfeit four games (their first four wins) due to the ineligi- bility of a player. “This season was rough com- pared to last year’s, we were a young team,” said player Seth Ravenna. □ by Chelsea Matthews.

To play any school sport at Clearwater, a student must live within the school zone. Since Bradham’s mother did not live in- side the zone, he moved in to live with his aunt who did. Then Bradham had to file for a hard- ship to tell of his change of ad- dress. Officials were still working on the paperwork when the sea- son started, so Bradham was technically an ineligible player and couldn’t participate in any of the games. Unknowingly, the team continued playing and win- ning. In the end though, they were forced to forfeit their first three games, their first three wins. “In a way, I felt like it was my fault. But, it really didn’t matter. The team knew what our record really was and how we really played,” said Bradham. Practices were held every Monday, Wednesday and Friday after school for usually one and a half to two hours each day. Be- cause of the different teams using the gym, they had to cut down on the amount of time. “We have to give up our time and devote it to the team. Get- ting the recognition that we do makes up for it,” said sophomore guard, Jerald Pearson. The team’s strong points in- cluded good rebounding, phys- ically big and having good guards. “Since Coach Coffin and I work well together, it’s easier for me to help prepare the players for when they try out for the var- sity team. I think in the long run both the players and the school will benefit from the players ex- perience on the JV,” said Sny- der. □ by Susana Kugeares and Cassie Flory J.V.

Freeman was a key part of the teams offense and defense. W ithin the realm of all great sports there is an era in which one team dominates over all the rest. Such teams not only enjoy the success of that era but also establish a precedent for other teams to fol- low as well. Such a team was this year’s girls basketball team. The girls started their season on a high note by winning the Pre-season Christmas Tourna- ment. “I think that winning the Christmas Tournament was real- ly one of the highpoints of our season because we had to beat two really strong teams to win,” stated coach Ann Balderson. “Winning the Christmas Tour- nament was good for the team because it got us pumped up and ready for the rest of the season,” stated Jennifer Owen, a senior on the team. From that point on the team continued to enjoy the riches of victory. The team dominated the court as well as the Pinellas County Conference by defeating tough opponents such as Pinellas Park and Gibbs. “The team’s attitude was fan- tastic. They were really support- ive of each other and it really showed on and off the court,” stated Balderson. HEADS-UP Good vision Is essential not only to the success of a player but to the success of the whole team.

This supportive attitude led the team to a 27-0 record as they entered the District Tourna- ments, and also frustrated many an opponent along the way. Whether the victory was because of a tough defense or a threaten- ing offense or a mixture of both the Lady Tornadoes always found their way on top of the heap. ‘‘This year’s team had w onder- ful balance all around the court. The girls are all very good play- ers and combined unselfishness with intensity to make things work on the court,” stated Bal- derson. “This year we have a great team that really works well to- gether. If we play like we are ca- pable of playing, I anticipate we will do fine as we head towards the state tournaments,” stated Tess Nelson, also a senior on the team. With such a positive season under their belts, the players, coaches, and spectators can only look ahead with optimism at the up and coming seasons.

Girls’ come out on top T he extraordinary success of the J.V. girls tasted twice as sweet as plain victory. The Ju- nior Varsity team’s purpose was quite similar to that of the minor leagues in professional baseball. The players received thorough instruction in the fundamentals in order to provide a rock solid foundation for the knowledge of the intricate complexities of the game. The knowledge of these intricacies were absolutely essen- tial in order to excel. The future of the varsity team is largely predictable by the J.V. team’s success. With 21 wins, a new record, the J.V. team soared to an awesome winning percent- age of 96. As in any other team sport, the cornerstone of this team’s success was practice. “Practices stressed the funda- mentals: shooting, passing, ex- ecution of set plays,” said Coach Kessinger. Three practices of an hour and a half each were held each week to build execution and team- work. “Although sometimes, prac- tices were a pain, they really did help us. Coach Kessinger pushed us to do our best and work as a team,” said Kelly Bray. Another key to the team’s un- canny knack for winning was their obedience to a few simple rules set up by Coach Kessinger. These rules insisted that all team members conduct themselves properly at all times, and main- tain strick concentration and court discipline during the game. These freshmen and sopho- mores maintained the epitome of sportsmanship on and off court and utilized their discipline to achieve unparalleled success. □ by Flip Coleman STOP THAT BALL After a missed shot by a Largo player, Anne Humphries and another Largo player battle for the rebound.

J.V. Girls’ Basketball □ 79 Elite Tradition Team continues its dominance T he boy’s soccer team con- tinued to carve out a place for themselves in the realm of Pinellas County soccer — a place head and shoulders above the competition. Despite the fact that they were head and shoulders above the other teams’ ability, their op- ponents often stood head and shoulders above them in size. The team had something even more important than size though, blazing speed. “As a team we were extremely quick and agile, which allowed us a great deal of flexibility,” said Gary Cuddeback, captain and the team’s only four-year starter. No where was this flexibility more evident than in their attack mode. Goals were scored from every position except goalkeep- er, and in a seemingly endless va- riety of methods ranging from rocket-like shots by the defend- ers from midfield or diving head- ers from the forwards. The real cornerstone of the team was its leadership. Senior captains Cuddeback, Jeff Love, and Danny Abdullaj formed what coach Jim Campas termed as his “Leadership Core.” Each dominated play in their region of th e field. Another strength of the team was their ball control. Their intri- cate pass plays often set up scores out of nowhere. “Our passing gave us an extra dimension, and the ability to score at anytime. It really frus- trated the other teams,” said Love. And the excitement was just as great at the other end. Diving, shot blocks and precision slide tackles became the norms as they established what was rated the strongest defensive unit in the Pinellas County Conference. By vitalizing their full poten- tial, the boy’s soccer team set a new standard for play in Pinellas County. □ Flip Coleman AIRING IT OUT Soccer requires participants to really use their heads.

Teamwork Spirits rise to their high When terms such as “drib- bling” or “passing” were used, some may have thought of two sports in particular — basketball and football. While in actuality, soccer was the sport being men- tioned. At first, the team consisted of a group of multi-talented individ- uals each with their own attri- butes and potentials. It took Jack Briscoe’s coaching ability to en- able the players to work as a team rather than individuals. “Coach Briscoe was more than just a coach. He was a friend,” said forward and leading scorer Dena Moyer. With practices and games, ac- tivities were held six days a week and often lasted two to three hours each. Practices included various drills and workouts such as dribbling, shooting, and pass- ing. “I think we all benefited from the hard workouts. It helped us to work as a team and got us ready for some of our tougher games,” said Laurie Geist, team captain. Changing captains often gave everyone qualified a chance to excel in the area of leadership, as well as helped the team through varied techniques. Although the usual problems were evident during season play, through rigourous coaching and hard practice, they were able to overcome them and pull together as a team for their last game against Dunedin. This game end- ed in a two to one loss for the team, but their competitiveness throughout the game helped to end this season in good spirits. □ by Jennifer Nelis and Susan Wernsing 1 ■ vjiris ooccer 1 CHS OPP I Pinellas Park 3 1 Tarpon Springs 0 3 Northeast 2 1 Countryside 1 2 St. Pete Catholic 4 1 Gibbs 5 0 Seminole 1 2 Dunedin 0 6 Osceola 0 1 Boca Ceiga 2 0 Largo 0 4 ccc 2 1 Lakewood 2 2 St. Pete 0 3 Seminole 1 6 Dixie Hollins 1 1 Dunedin 1 2 6 wins 11 losses 82 □ Girls Soccer □ 83 Girls Soccer USING YOUR HEAD “Heading” the ball is just one way to pass the ball.

One makes his move and the other counter moves just as fast. The opponents are surrounded by blood thirsty enthusiasts scream- ing encouragement. The oppo- nents grappled for what seemed an eternity, neither giving way. Finally, the coach yells for the boys to stop and the wrestling practice ends. Coaching contributed a great deal to the success of this year’s wrestling team. “Coach Brittain was more mel- low this year. He let the wrestlers wrestle their own style and worked from that,” said Andrew Goldman, a senior on the team. Coach Brittain combined with Coach Floyd comprised prac- tices consisting of hard condition- ing but that also catered to the special needs of each wrestler. “Coach Brittain and Coach Floyd make a great coaching team. They compliment each other and if one has a weak area the other usually pulls through. The team owes everything to them,” said Todd Kuhn, a junior and a bright hope for the team as they rounded off their season. The coaching combination payed off. The team finished with a 11-2-1 record, the best ever in the school’s history. Their outstanding record earned them a spot in the top ten rankings in the state and placed them third in their conference. The team’s only losses came from teams ranked third and seventh in the state. “The team was strong the whole year. A couple of injuries hurt us in the beginning but we pulled throug h. This year we beat teams that dominated the conference last year,” said Gold- man. With the right combination of coaching the wrestling team launched itself into a new level of prosperity. □ by Gary Cuddeback OVER THE TOP Wrestling demands both speed and strength.

The crowd hushes as the competitors, with arms back, heads tilted and straining muscles tear the bright yellow tape. The glory of placing in a track meet is what all runners dream of. But along with pres- tige comes hard, grueling prac- tices. The girls track team trained every day after school, from 3 o’clock to 5 o’clock except on the day of the meet. As a warm- up routine, the runners jogged an 880, then stretched. Next, if it wasn’t the day before a meet, the girls briskly jogged around the school campus. If a meet was scheduled for the following day, the girls performed short, quick strides after stretching. The runners needed certain basic qualities that were cov- ered in practice. These were known as the five S’s: strength, speed, stamina, skill, and self- control. How much the runners needed depended on the dis- tance in which they ran. The purpose of training was to de- velop the five S’s until they al- lowed the runners to achieve their best possible perfor- mance. C.

Lynette Robbins, a three time par- ticipant in the State track meet, attempts to improve her time in the 880 run. “You can’t just one day decide to go out and run two miles without much practice. That is what training is for. It is difficult, but it builds you up to your full potential. Our coach, Mrs. Biddle, gives us hard drills to do and it pays off a lot when we show good execution in a race,” said Shannon Robbins, who has been named First Team Runner in the country. Shannon and her older sis- ter, Lynette, a senior, represented CHS at least twice in the state track meets.

Strength, support, and the staff made the track team what it is,” said Chris Sloan. Sloan, a fourth year member of the track team, who partici- pated in the 330 yard intermedi- ate, the 440 yard relay, and the mile relay, the hurdles, and the long jump continued with, “I feel we had a strong team this year. We had a good coaching staff and the team supported one another. After four years we finally had more than two people go to state.” The addition of Coach Citron, a hurdles coach just out of col- lege, to the coaching staff, was a quite valuable one. Marcus Green, who participated in the long jump, triple jump, hurdles, and 440 yard relays, said, “Be- fore when we were hurdling, we trained ourselves. We were down in the dumps. But now that Cit- ron has come, we’re correcting our errors. He encouraged us to do what we thought we couldn’t do” Dedication was a character trait of most track athletes. Many of the runners who came to prac- tice every day did not make it past districts. This dedication was also evident in the coaching staff. For example, Dr. Hayslett often volunteered his time to coach the team in pole vaulting. Assistant Coach Rodriguez and head Coach Jim Eubank also showed their dedication by hav- ing practice four to five times a week. Coach Rodriguez helped by starting at meets, supervising weightlifting, teaching baton passing, and coaching shot, dis- cus, and the sprinters. Second year member Ed Cole said, “Being on track makes me feel like a real man. It gives you inspiration towards life and helps you to set goals and to achieve them. We owe it all to Coach Eu- bank and the coaching staff.” □ by Karin Case and Lori Gilliam _ J - SPRINGTIME CITY Q SPRINGTIME 88 □ Boys Track I V C U.1 fire one The most important aspect of discus throwing is form.

Long practices pay off for tennis team T ennis was no joke to certain members of the student body — the tennis team. They constantly practiced their skills and competed against each other to improve their game. Three times a week, mem- bers of the girls’ and boys’ tennis teams showed up at the courts for one and a half hours of stretching exercises, running drills, and playing under the in- struction of fourth year coach, Jim Rosenthal. Coach Rosenthal felt that the team made it to the state tourna- ments because of their hard work during practices. Anuj Grover said, “I enjoy playing tennis because of the one on one competition and because the results of the game depend upon you.” The team matches were usual- ly held after school, twice a week, on Tuesdays and Thurs- days. During the Conference Tournament, however, the team played as many as three times a week. Anuj Grover retained the number one position on the boys team for the second year in a row. Craig Goldenfarb and Cal- vin Calhoun placed second and third consecutively. The girls had no real top play- er, as the top three players, Krys- ten Morrow, Stephanie Jones, and Jody Carden constantly competed against each other for the number one playing position. Jody Carden, captain of the girls team said, “There were a lot of really good players on the team this-year. People seemed to be really enthusiastic about doing well and winning.” □ by Suzy Hider Tennis □ 91 Young team ' s strength is speed T he ball is pitched and makes its way towards the plate, but before the batter can react to the pitch, the man on first is on his way to second. The catcher makes a throw to stop the play, but the runner beats the throw and slides safely into sec- ond base. The stealing of bases, led by Brian Dixon, along with the great speed of the entire team did not alone win games, but they were definitely the strong points of the baseball team. Steve Sotir, coach of the base- ball team said, “The team’s strength is their speed. It helps them in their offensive attack and makes a lot of things happen.” The team practiced every day from three to six at Tack Field. Coach Sotir, assisted by former players Dennis Braun, Ron Delal- ly, Clayton Dudjak, and Ed McGrath, based the practices on the basics of the sport. Coach Sotir said, “We always continued to work on the funda- mentals because they are the lit- tle things you have to do every- day. If you take care of the little things the big things will take care of themselves.” The team was led by the only two returning seniors, Brian Dix- on and Allen Jetton. The twenty- nine man team was a relatively young team made up of mostly sophomores and juniors who were unaccustomed to working with each other. Their lack of playing time together was a dis- advantage, but the players did not let it get the better of them. Rather, they just worked harder to make up for it. Brian Dixon said, “When we play together as a team, we are very good competitors.” Coac h Sotir earned the re- spect of the team members through his techniques both on and off the field. Brian Dixon said, “He’s a good coach. I like the way he came in and made a name for himself.” The team worked hard and it showed during the season. With so many young players on the team this year, the next years should be good ones. Ryan Young said, “The team played good together and should improve in the next years, be- cause it is made up of so many younger players.” □ by Mari Roby COMING HOME Nothing is more satisfying or helpful to your team than to score a run.

The score is tied, with •Clearwater at the bat. The bases ae loaded. The batter gets up to bat, and lets one strike go by. Then another. She concen- trated on the pitcher. The pitcher throws the ball, and the pitch comes into the strike zone, she hits it! She earns a base hit, which scores a run. Clearwater wins the game! The softball team had a suc- cessful year with returning play- ers, Laurie McGinn, Charlotte Ulrich, Tess Nelson, Leslie Jen- sen, Janet Coffee, Tricia Davis, Melissa Hunt, Erin McGinn, Tere- sa Tipton, and Kim Polouian. The two new coaches, head coach Dennis Manni and assis- tant coach Bobby Quinn, also helped the team to victory. To- gether they had a great combina- tion. “Coach Manni and Coach Quinn knew what they were do- ing, and were just as excited as we were, if not more, about our season,” said Erin McGinn. Many new traditions started this year, such as having home games start at 7:00 P.M., instead of 4:00 PM. The Star Spangled Banner was sung before the games. Said Erin McGinn, “I liked the games at 7:00 because it gave us time to relax and warm up.” The team also set aside a Sat- urday, before the season started, to have the parents come and meet the team. They were intro- duced to the players and coaches. Everyone brought snacks that were shared by all and everyone enjoyed them- selves. “I think the opportunity for the parents to meet the players and other parents was a really good idea. It helped to raise all of our attitudes,” said Teresa Tipton. The home opener was Satur- G. Cuddeback day, February 28. Former coach James Baby, threw out the first pitch of the game. Practices, which started Janu- ary 5 were usually held at Bomb- er field everyday (including Sat- urday) from four to six, unless there was a game. Practices con- sisted of drills, batting exercises, infield and outfield practices, and much more. “The practices were very in depth. We ran a lot, and worked as hard as we could,” said Tricia Davis. These practices played a big part in their successful season. The relationships among team members were great. Getting along with team mates made the team more successful, and helped the girls enjoy the season. “It was great. Everyone got along with everyone. The season was a lot of fun,” said Leslie Jen- sen. □ by Janet Coffee Softball Pre Season Tournament Countryside Pinellas Park Pinellas Park Seminole Largo Northeast ccc Osceola Pinellas Park Boca Ciega Largo St. Petersburg Dixie Hollins Dunedin Tarpon Gibbs Manatee Tournament Dixie Hollins Dunedin Pinellas Park Countryside Countryside Lakewood Northeast CHS 9 10 5 2 2 2 27 13 5 5 6 5 5 2 11 7 13 8 9 2 6 15 2 OPP 10 6 4 3 5 7 0 5 6 1 3 1 4 6 8 0 0 9 5 7 3 5 8 14 Wins — 9 Loss Softball □ 95 ' a section for non-school jocks A More Classical Approach to 4(1 t gives me a way to use up 1 my energy in something I really enjoy,” stated Theresa Bruce whose has been taking bal- let lessons for ten years. Ballet is a classical form of dance that emphasizes grace and swift, sure, flowing movements. The sport requires a great deal of internal competitiveness, and re- lies on the individual to push themselves to achieve. “I wanted to take gymnastics, but my mother had a hard time finding a place she liked, and we had recently been to a friend’s dance recital at a dance acade- my. Then she enrolled me there the summer before 1 went into the second grade,” stated Bruce. Being a universal form of dance ballet can often serve as a medium of exchange between people who have nothing in com- mon, but a shared love of danc- ing. □ by Gary Cuddeback PREPARATION In order to use your body to it’s potential, the muscles must be thoroughly prepared for exercise.

W hen you mention “foot- ball” to most Americans, and ask them what comes to their mind, the answer is of course, good old football, with heavy hitting and fast action. Well, if you asked this question anywhere else in the world the answer you would most likely get would have the same descrip- tion, but would actually be some- thing else. In almost every other country in the world “football” is the sport we call soccer. And al- though it has lots of men running around in uniforms chasing after a ball, that’s where the similari- ties end. Soccer is unique due to the fact it denies man the use of his most developed appendages the arms and hands. □ Flip Coleman AIM AND FIRE A soccer shot needs to be lined up pre- cisely to be a success.

Everything from rollerskates to motorcycles has taken its toll on man. Yet there are those who 1 strive to master wheeled vehicles despite the consequences. Such is the case of biking. Biking requires stamina and strength, focusing on the legs and abdomen for much of its power. • Most experienced riders have I well developed arm, leg, and stomach muscles and are in good : physical condition. Many found biking to be an ex- cellent way to keep in shape over the summer months. Biking also required a great deal of money. A good bike can range from $150 to $600, and must be maintained and con- stantly kept in good working con- dition. Therefore, by simply combin- ing money and willpower, along with the determination you have what it takes to become a suc- cessful bicycle rider. □ by Gary Cuddeback FAST FORWARD Leaning into the stiff breeze created by an oncoming front, Terry Maros prepares to maneuver his bike into the bus lane in order to avoid traffic. On the Outside Dancing the Night Away S ince the beginning of time, different forms of expressing moods or events have been adopted. Everything from primi- tive art to crude forms of drama has influenced the arts of today. Such is the case with dancing. Many different forms of dance exist each with their own style, fl : movements, and certain charac- teristics. No matter what the type of dance each demand luch time and effort and a lot of I ard work. Many found a good way to 9 eep their bodies in dance les- sons over the summer at dance studios such as Studio 4, and Peggy’s Dance Academy. All in all, a lot of hard work amounted up to fun for those who participated. □ by Gari; Cuddeback STEP! 2, 3, 4 Dancing requires intense concentration, and a good sense of rhythm helps also. Roxanne Rarick and Laura Darners try out a new step. A section for non-school jocks A Fresh Alternative S omething new and fresh hit the scene recently. Hydro- sliding, a variation of water- skiing, began to emerge as a good alternative to waterskiing. “It’s a lot more fun and easier, too,” said Paul Miley. The hydroslide’s low profile, and streamlined shape made it a great deal easier to ride and also had more capability for tricks than skiis. “It’s a lot less demanding phys- ically than ski ing,” said Tom En- gala. Its closeness to the water dissi- pated a great deal of the wave shock along with the trauma of wiping out. □ by Flip Coleman CATCHING AIR Just off the Belleair Causeway, Paul Mi- ley soars skyward.

Of course, he was speaking of bowling. While bowling, once the mainstay of the fifties teen cul- ture, was not often given a promi- nent place on the “Things to Do List”, it still beat out sitting at home. Because of this, local bowling alleys, like Hi-Lan Lanes and Shore Lanes, were often filled on weekend nights when other forms of entertainment weren’t readily available. STRIKING OUT Knocking down all ten pins is considered very difficult. John St. Clair rolls for the elusive pocket. “Everything you need is right there — you can’t beat it,” said John St. Clair. Bowling allies had other things going for them also, such as their all-around entertainment pack- age. One bowling alley contained not only the facilities for bowling, but also pool tables, video games, and a cheap family res- taurant with the four basic food groups: Coke, Pizza, Hambur- gers, and Fries. “It’s a really basic sport, throw the ball and knock down as many pins as you can!” said Brandon Reed. □ by Flip Coleman 98 □ Out of School Sports Table-Play P ing Pong. It’s more than just the name of the game; it’s the sound that it makes. Ping Pong, also known as table tennis, is an ancient game with a simple purpose. The game itself centers around a little, splendiferous orb. Not just any old orb though, a special one with colors beyond belief. “It’s amazing the number of colors they come in, everything from white to dayglo orange, and anything in between,” said Bill Glass. While ping pong at its highest level was cutthroat competition between trained professionals, most played a more relaxed version of the sport in garages all over. “It’s really relaxing and very simple,” said Peter Tsambiras. Simplicity was the key to ping pong’s remaining popularity throughout the high- school set. □ by Flip Coleman A SMASH Returning a hard hit shot is very difficult. Bill Glass counters a smash by Pete Tsambiras with a slicing, forehand lob shot. Tsambiras went on to win the point and the game.

Rrooaar, the early morning silence was shattered. Does this sound like another Rambo spinoff movie to you? Guess again, it’s waterskiing. “The skiing’s the best early , when the wa- ter’s nice and calm,” said Brooks Byrd. It was for this reason that skiiers hit the water early on Saturday and Sunday morn- ings. The glasslike early morning water made skiing a great deal easier. “When the water’s choppy it’s really hard to ski,” said Chad Clark. The choppy waters created by the after- noon seabreeze and changing tides buffeted skiiers — taking its toll on their bodies, and making the actual skiing a great deal tougher. Despite the rougher waters, skiiers were seen throughout the day. Whether struggling to stay upright on two skiis or slicing graceful- ly through the wake on a trick ski laying up a huge wall of water, waterskiing was a great way to spend a morning. □ by Flip Coleman Out of School Sports □ 99 A section for non-school jocks SMASH!

Coleman TO THE LIMIT Beginning a downhill stretch, David Thomas and Andy Burwell pick up their pace on the way down Normandy Rd. on a Saturday afternoon. For the Health of It H is footsteps pounded the pavement as he took his body to the limits, the outer limits of pain and suffering. Why would anyone willingly put themselves through this mental and physical anguish? “To burn fat,” said Bob Mac- Kenzie. Running is one of the most effi- cient exercises for burning calo- ries ever tried by man. The car- diovascular system must work fe- verishly in order to supply blood to the straining muscles of the ab- domen and legs. Jogging can also be very hard on the body. Without the proper stretching of the muscles, they may be strained or even more se- riously, torn. “Warming up is essential; if you don’t you can really hurt yourself,” said MacKenzie. Running overall, though, is one of the best things you can do for your body. Although many jogged merely for the health of it, quite a few participated in order to enhance their athletic ability. The swim team was required to jog after practices on some days, and the football team ran during all their practices. “It’s not only the physical exer- cise that I enjoy, but the mental exercise, like trying to keep your mind occupied along with your body,” said Chris Laursen, a member of the track team who jogs regularly throughout the off season. “A lot of track members run cross country to stay in shape for track and visa versa,” said Laursen. Regardless of the reasons, jog- gers reaped a great deal of bene- fits from the dedication to the sport. □ by Flip Coleman. 100 □ Out of School Sports On the Outside Peak of Success W hen the words “mountain climbing” are mentioned, most people usually conjure up images of snow-capped peaks with unpronouncable names reaching far into the clouds. Well, this wasn’t always the case. Most of the mountain climb- ing done in the eastern United States was something totally dif- ferent, not mere snowcapped peaks, but sheer cliffs of stone. “The challenge is definitely why I do it. The best part of it all is when you finally reach the top and can stand up there looking down. It’s a great feeling of accomplishment,” said David Young. Because Florida is not very mountainous, most mountain climbers went out of the state to find climbing spots. Young scaled Mt. Yona this summer through Georgia. He also scaled cliffs rated at 5 ' 10 . Cliffs are rated according to steepness, with 5 ' 0 being flat, and 5 ' 12 being impossible. Young proved mountain climb- ing is a sport for those with a stout heart and a diehard spirit of adven- ture. □ by Flip Coleman GOING DOWN? Rapelling is often used in mountain climb- ing to make the descent from the peak. David Young skims down the side of Mt. Yona in Georgia. Lifting: Worth the Weight T he darkly tanned muscle bound student paraded across the beach, drawing the attention of all he passed. People stared in awe at his rippling muscles and well-devel- oped body as he lowered himself onto a blanket and fell asleep. Obviously not everyone possesses a well-developed body of rippling muscles, but some students devoted much of their summers to achieving this goal. Many students were found at fitness centers, health spas or even their own homes pumping iron and improving their physique. “I got started weightlifting be- cause I got tired of people calling me puny and people picking on me,” stated junior Glenn Riddle, who has been weightlifting since he was in the eighth grade. “For me, weightlifting gets out stress, makes me feel confident about myself, and makes me feel good,” added Riddle. “I lift about three to four times a week for about two and a half hours,” also added Riddle, “But in the end all this hard work pays off.” □ by Gary Cuddeback CONCENTRATION Curls are a very strenuous exercise.

But how did all these accom- plishments come about? Surely they didn’t just materi- alize out of thin air. On the contrary, they all re- quired hours of practice and planning. Before the chorus was selected to take part in the December candlelight pro- cessional at Disney World, they first had to prepare and record an entire audition tape. Getting organized for events also required a lot of time. Before the ROTC took part in the November 21 bal- loon lift, they spent time learning where on the field to stand in order to form the let- ters “CHS”. While everyone enjoyed the “club highlights” of the year, the part that made it all possible was the work done during The In-Between Days. -organizations- $wm®swM4 m S3SSMS 108 □ Performance E NCCCE ! Practice produces sparkling shows M he adrenalin be- gins to flow . . . IB the palms start to perspire . . . and then it’s time to perform! “You can’t help but get nervous when you know all these people will be watch- ing you,” said Julie Case, the flag captain of the Tor- nadoettes, “but you’re too busy striving for perfection and yet at the same time having too much fun to stop and really think about it.” The band with its auxil- iaries was one of many groups to perform through- out the year. “Our main perfor- mances, at games and at competitions all over the area, require only the best. We have to look spotless, our instruments have to be polished and everything has to be in tip-top shape. No mistakes allowed,” said Taft Flittner, a senior who played the trumpet in the band. “After going over every- thing one last time for touch-ups, everything has to turn out perfect,” said Kenny Tucker, who per- formed in the award win- ning JROTC for three years. JROTC attended approximately four com- petitions throughout the year and competed in many areas ranging from exhibition drilling to phys- ical fitness to general in- spection. And what exactly filled the thoughts of these per- formances as they each steped onto their own “stage”? “Think? Who has time to think? I guess it’s a com- bination between concen- trating on getting over the hard parts and then per- forming through it all,” said Julie Case. “After the initial nervous rush subsides you can’t think,” said Jennifer Ka- plan, a senior in the Inter- con ’t.

Tm really not nervous when I sing; its just the time before the perfor- mance when all you can think of is messing up the whole show,” said Priscilla Bagley, a member of Wind- song. “Really, your train of thought depends on the au- dience. If the audience is responsive, it’s a whole lot easier to perform,” said an- other member of Wind- song. Windsong, a part of the choral and music depart- ment, danced and sang their way all over the area. They performed in shops, state and district competi- tion, nursing homes and other places in the commu- nity. “It all happens so quick- ly. You’re really playing to the audience as well as with the people around you and you try to cope with it all as well as you can.

Lai Practice first Hours of practice proceed quality performances ow many times have you sat in an audience and wished you were the one in the spotlight? The glamour and glitter of a good perfor- mance, whether on stage or on the field, can over- shadow all the practice it takes to get to the final pro- duction. Most people only know one side of the story. The real truth lies behind the scenes. Practices used up most of the band’s playing time. The marching band prac- ticed for six hours every week, first semester in the hot sun. It took a great deal of physical effort. “Band people are in a lot better shape physically. I know some football play- ers who can’t get out and do the show,” said Dan Hill- man. But even in the heat out- side, Tornadoette Kim Ruggles said, “It’s fun with a lot of my friends in band.” The Marine Corps Ju- nior Reserve Officer Train- ing Corps, more commonly known as ROTC, prac- ticed for its many competi- tions all year long. Colonel R. F. Moody, the Senior Marine Instructor, ex- plained, “The drill and rifle teams each practiced about 100 extra hours after school for the com- petitive season.” During each ROTC class in school, the stu- dents did calisthenics, be- sides working on military drills. “We sweat every- day,” said freshman David Massa. But despite all the exer- tion and effort, he conclud- ed, “It’s still my favorite period of the day because we don’t have to sit in a class and listen to a teacher lecture.” Practicing for cheerlead- ing also took physical ef- fort. Every day after school the cheerleaders stretched out, reviewed chants, and learned new cheers. Their thoughts on cheering did not end after practice though. “We’re always thinking about the next thing we’re preparing for, like pep ral- lies and making spirit bags”, said Varsity cheer- leader Cari Batstone. “It’s fun, though.” Unlike the cheerleaders, the chorus did not practice every week throughout the year. “We usually don’t put in more than classtime if we aren’t getting ready for a concert”, said senior Bill Bryant. Not everyone enjoyed the practices, though. Sophomore Samantha De- Felix said, “It just seems that every time Mrs. De- Berrry has a rehearsal I have something already planned”. While another sophomore, Lisa Way, thought that, “There was still plenty of time for other activities.” The drama rehearsals required less overall time but demanded diligent commitment. The cast practiced every day for about six weeks for the fall play “Night Must Fall”. Be- sides these scheduled practices, “It does take time at home to learn your lines”, explained senior Karen Mayer. During the last two weeks of practice, “We all stayed until 8:00 at night,” said Mrs. Papas, the drama teacher and director. With all the hours put into practicing, it was no wonder the band, ROTC, cheerleading, chorus, and Drama Club did their best when the curtain rose and all eyes fell on them. □ by Susana Kugeares ATTENTION!

The perfor- mance was about to begin. But did those per- formers feel they got as much recognition as they deserved? The Tornadoettes per- formed at football game halftimes and competi- tions. Kim Ruggles, a first year Tornadoette, said “Since we didn’t perform at pep rallies this year, a lot of stu- dents don’t know who we are or what we do.” Choral groups such as Opus One, Women’s Choir, Concert Choir, Windsong, and Headliners also performed throughout the year at school and in the community. “Students can’t really support us because our performances are usually during school,” said Karen Yurecka, a member of the women’s song and dance group, Headliners. If young people went to the performances, they usually went to see friends. “The main reason stu- dents went was to see their good friends, but they usu- ally end up liking the show,” said Bryan Stanley, a member of Windsong, the Co-ed singing group. The drama department holds a fall and a spring play each year. Since they were only allowed one in school performance a year, attendance for the fall play suffered. “Night Must Fall” was the fall play. Cheerleaders were an- other group who per- formed at many sports events such as Varsity foot- ball, JV football, and girls’ and boys’ basketball through the year. The Freshmen Cheerleaders cheered at girls’ varsity basketball games twice a week. “In middle school the cheerleaders were looked up to because we were older. Here, we’re kind of looked down upon because we’re freshmen,” said An- drea Warner, a member of the Freshmen Cheer- leaders. Whether these young people showed their tal- ents at sports events, dur- ing school or in the commu- nity, they all had one thing in common — the love of performing. □ by Valerie Wickersham V.

CONNECTIONS In order to produce the CHS pub- lications, much support is needed from advertisers. Julie Michael makes an appointment with an ad customer for a picture. 116 □ Publications Lin L. Eaddy ‘hey lost sleep over it. They turned down evenings out with their friends for it. They skipped lunch and sometimes class for it. They cursed it, screamed at it, and some- times even cried over it. But in the end, student journalists were proud of working on high school publications. “Being on Clearlight for four years was a real experience. What other club offered the opportuni- ty to stay after school until ten o’clock at night? But, despite all the trauma, I had some really great times on staff. And we put 1 out a great paper! In a way, I hated it so much I loved it,” said Martha Gal- loway, the editor of Clear- light. For both the yearbook and newspaper staffs, work began in the early summer. For those on the Aqua Clara staff, ad sell- ing was the top priority. In order to raise the $45,000 needed to publish the year- book, each member was required to sell $450 in ads by the end of the first six weeks. During the summer, 10 yearbook staffers also at- tended the Delmar conven- tion held in Charlotte, NC. While there, the students not only picked up ideas for the ’87 book, but also won second place in a de- sign contest which won them a free four color cov- er from their publisher. For the Clearlight staff, summer brought on a ma- jor change in the appear- ance of the school newspa- per. After meeting with a professional design special- ist, a new layout for the front page was developed. Pictures in the shape of gui- tar pics were added (by the December issue, however, these pictures were made square) and the print of the mast, Clearlight, was made to resemble that of Rolling Stone’s. Though publications were definitely not forgot- ten during the summer, the real work began when school did. As soon as staff- ers returned to class, they also returned to what was perhaps the most dreaded part of being on a publica- tion staff . . . deadline. “Clearlight deadlines were like a chain reaction. If we missed story dead- line, we didn’t get the pa- per typeset on time. If we didn’t typeset on time, we didn’t finish paste-ups on time. If we didn’t get paste- ups done on time, we went to the printer late . . . and it kept getting worse” said Assistant Editor Becca Kert.

Mayer seen until the end of the year, they too had monthly deadlines. “Deadlines were deceiving. The small ones, like picture and story deadlines seemed so unim- portant. But if you missed them, you missed plant deadlines, and then you were really in trouble!” said Elizabeth Voulieris. As if the trauma of meet- ing deadlines was not enough, both staffs had ad- ditional problems which they had to cope with. The most obvious one for the yearbook staff was the ab- sence of their advisor, Judy Cannaday. Mrs. Cannaday went on maternity leave soon after the first color deadline and did not return for the rest of the year. Because her replacement, Leslie Camp- bell, had never before worked with a high school yearbook staff, much more responsibility was thrust upon the editors and staff- ers. “Putting out the year- book without Mrs. Canna- day was . . . interesting. With her gone, everyone had to work a little harder and longer. But we had a good staff and an enthusi- astic interim advisor — so we managed to survive the year,” said Guy Neimann. The challenge for the newspaper staff lay in the size and experience of their staff. Out of the 24 students on staff, only five were seniors, and four of these seniors had only been on staff for one pre- vious semester. The size of the Clear- light staff also hurt the staff indirectly through ad sales. “Even if everyone had made ad quota each month, we still would have only been able to go twelve pages. We just didn’t have enough people selling ads,” said ad manager Bri- an Dudjak. But the quality of both the newspaper and year- book was unchanged by these challenges. The list of awards for the Clear- light and Aqua Clara only grew as the year went on. “At times, things looked pretty bleak for both staffs, especially around dead- line. But CHS has always put out top publications, and this year was no differ- ent,” concluded Carrie McLaren. □ by Lynette Eaddy 118 □ Publications M.

These par- ties varied in style from for- mal frills to shorts and shav- ing cream. “The National Honor So- ciety had a formal induc- tion. It was a ceremony. Our parents came and it was very structural,” said Todd Warner. “The Interact initiation was at my house in the back yard and we played really funny games. For the fina- le, we got in a massive shav- ing cream fight! It was (cont.)

Their sole pur- pose for being there is to get $2. 50’s worth of food. A chunky woman with a fake smile, an out-dated coiffure, and make-up about two inches thick wearing orange blossom perfume and a flowered outfit mingles about the room serving punch and trying to make conversa- tion. To some, this is the stereotypical scene of a club party. But contrary to this popular belief, club parties were generally fun. The active clubs held nu- merous parties ranging from beach parties to mar- riage ceremonies. In the warmer seasons, clubs sponsored park pic- nics, cookouts, and beach and pool parties. As the winter months came and the weather got cooler, the fun moved indoors to din- ner parties at restaurants where the other members participated in activities such as watching VCR movies and playing games. “The kinds of parties chorus had depended on the weather really. In the fall we had our annual pic- nic, but then during the win- ter we had get togethers at people’s houses,” said Sta- cey Lewison. At a winter NHS party held at Brent Andberg’s house the members watched movies and snacked on foods prepared by some members. “It was so cold outside we sat by the fireplace and watched movies on the VCR,” said Frank Armi- tage. The organizations often held parties to honor cer- tain holidays such as Christ- mas or Halloween. Often, at these parties members exchanged gifts to make the holiday more festive. At a Christmas Clearlight par- ty the staffers exchanged gifts. “We baked cookies, ate candy canes and ex- Live it ep! HIKE! The German Club entered the new frontier — the great out- doors.

Parties □ 121 Live it ii ! a mess!” said Ashley Ea- ton, Secretary for Interact. Birthdays were also cause for club parties. Some organizations held monthly parties for those members with birthdays during that month. While others threw surprise par- ties for officers or mem- bers. For the foreign language clubs the details for the parties were often more complicated. Occasionally, the members were re- quired to prepare foreign foods, speak in the foreign tongue, and play foreign games. This provided members with a better idea of the country’s cul- ture while improving their speaking listening skills. The French club held one such party. At the French Club par- ty, “We spoke French all day and prepared French food that the teacher gave us recipes for. We had to translate the recipe too. It was truly an experience!” said Tricia Abdou. The Spanish Club did a little more than just speak Spanish. They had to per- form a marriage ceremony in the foreign language. Some of the members were unofficially “married” Spanish style. “We rehearsed the mar- riage beforehand and per- formed it in Spanish and then we had a reception afterwards. It was definite- ly different!” said groom Vince Leyden. Like the parties, the kinds of food served was widely varied. Some of the less formal club parties brought in potato chips or homemade cookies to eat. Each member contributed their own portion of the buffet. More formal par- ties, however, had the food catered from restaurants. “For our Spanish party at my house Chi Chis ca- tered it, we didn’t have to do a thing,” said Sherry Weiss. The expense, if any, of these parties were usually covered in the yearly dues paid by each member. Al- though when the food and entertainment became more expensive some clubs collected extra mon- ey. “The food and stuff we wanted was costing more than we expected, so we all contributed a couple ex- tra dollars to make it more successful,” said Sue Ellen Rosenbloom, a French Club member. Club members strove to break the stereotype of the dull club party. The parties provided for socializing learning, and fun. □ by Julie Walkup JEWISH CUISINE Refreshments were usually served after the monthly National Honor Society meeting.

TCE CE THE HEAP Top achievers receive recognition in honor societies ard work deserves recognition. For some people, excel- lence in academic performance was reward- ed by an invitation to join an honor society. Students who fulfilled the requirements in aca- demic achievement and in- school and community ac- tivities were invited to join in one of the three honor societies: National Honor Society, Spanish Honor So- ciety, and Quill and Scroll. In order to become a member of NHS, a cumula- tive grade point average of 3.5 had to be maintained throughout high school. Grades, however, were not the only deciding factors. School and community ac- tivities and teacher recom- mendations were also con- sidered. Mrs. Farina sponsored NHS. The officers were elected last year. Anuj Grover, the president, headed the meetings with the vice-president, Laura Larson’s help. Jennifer Ka- plan, secretary; Alice Lee, treasurer; and Cynthia Henry, sergeant-at-arms, performed the respective duties of their NHS posi- tions. Spanish Honor Society members had to maintain a B average in their Spanish classes for two or more consecutive years. The SHS officers: Jenni Traum, president; Alice Lee, vice-president; Dana Jacobson, secretary; and Cynthia Henry, treasurer, performed many of the same duties as their NHS counterparts. Mrs. Gill, Mr. Wright, and Mrs. Wat- kins sponsored the club. Juniors and seniors par- ticipating on a publications staff for two or more se- mesters, maintaining a 3.0 GPA, and recommended by their advisors were eligi- ble for Quill and Scroll membership. Martha Galloway, presi- dent; Lynette Eaddy, vice- president; and Carrie McLaren, secretary trea- surer, headed Quill and Scroll, sponsored by Shir- ley Moravec. Honor societies served as more than just a means of recognition. They of- fered many benefits to their members. “It looks really good on the record for college. I was really involved on the Clearlight staff and this is a great way to get recogni- tion for hard work,” said Wendy Marich, a member of Q and S. Honor societies were not all ceremony and serious- ness, however. Members found various ways to have fun. As Jenni Traum said, “Sure it’s a privilege, but most of my friends were members of NHS too, and we had a good time at the meetings and socials just like any other club.” Members of NHS served the community by babysit- ting, helping American Heart Association by sell- ing doves for Christmas at Maas Brothers in Country- side Mall, working on a joint service project with Project Lead, had several parties and socials, and at- tended the state conven tion. SHS members had par- ties at which they prac- ticed speaking in Spanish and sampled Spanish food, attended a Spanish con- vention, and planned a trip to the Dali Museum. Q and S planned “pub- bowls” in which the Aqua Clara and Clearlight staffs competed in various sport- ing events. They also had parties and hosted a jour- nalism banquet at the end of the school year. Members of honor soci- eties generally felt that it was a privilege to be invit- ed to join, as well as a good way to have fun with their peers. □ by Laura Larson. L.

Laurscn Caking Service clubs help out ■ he bell rang and school was over for the day. Stu- dents raced to their lock- ers, buses, and cars to save themselves from seeing those all-too familiar class- room walls and teachers’ faces just one minute more. However, many did not rush home. Although, usually no great love for the school environment kept them there, an inter- est and caring for helping others did. These students were the members of the service clubs and organiza- tions: Key Club, Interact, Usherettes, and Project Lead. Key Club, an interna- tional organization, worked to help the elderly and handicapped. Tracy Brooks said, “It improves the community and gives members a chance to meet people.” Under the leadership of President Scott Voshall, Vice-President Tracy Brooks, Treasurer Eliza- beth Voulieris, Secretary Flip Coleman, and Lt. Gov- ernor Jamie Hatchett, the club held various activities and fundraisers to help those people who needed it. Before Christmas, Key Club sponsored a canned food drive for needy peo- ple in cooperation with the Salvation Army and hand- ed out the food in front of the Toy Store. Students, showing off carnations from secret admirers or friends on Valentine’s Day or munching on candy dur- ing or after lunch, partici- pated in very successful money-making projects held during school. The Florida State Circus held in Jack White Stadi- um and several car washes added to the money Key Club used in thieir service of the community. Another activity to rasie funds was a plant sale at UPARC. The money made from it went directly to this center to aid in the care of the mentally retarded. “Key club members went to UPARC and helped them sell plants. It really was hard work and it was good use of some peo- ple’s time that would have been wasted, otherwise,” said Pete Tsambiras. The second major ser- vice-oriented club was In- teract. With a membership of 150 consisting mostly of juniors and seniors, more manpower was available to Interact during its fleamar- kets, garage and yard sales, and other profitable activities. A large amount of money was collected. For example, one garage sale made as much as $300. The money was used to repair the library and spent on Christmas (Cont.)

Plant Hospital. “The club even painted a lady’s house for free,” said Mr. Shoup, the Inter- act sponsor. Although Interacts goal was to help the communi- ty, many members joined because of their friends and to have fun. Debbie Roach said, “It depends on your outlook. Serving the community is really good, but the main thing you think about when you’re out there at a yard sale or something isn’t the work; it’s the fun part.” The Ushrettes, another service organization, re- ceived little recognition for their services. The girls vol- unteered many hours to help the school by selling programs at the basketball games. Also, they were the ones to catch and warn stu- dents who strayed too close to the reserved seat- ing section of the football statium. | Sara Ritchie said, “I think we don’t get enough appreciation from the school or students, but de- spite that, it’s sti ll worth- while work and it’s fun to meet new friends.” Project Lead, the newest service group was sponsored by the Junior League. It was the first year for any Lead group to be initiated in the Tampa Bay area. The main pur- pose, to teach students re- sponsibility and leader- ship, was achieved through planning and executing a community project. This project was to help the res- pite home, Bethel Beth- any, get started and be- come more well-known. “Bethel Bethany is a place where retarded kids or adults can stay for a weekend or a few days to give their parents and rela- tives a break from having to always watch them,” said Laura Twining. Lead’s members helped Bethel Bethany by holding a canned and dry food drive and giving the food to the home, by cleaning the grounds and the building it- self, landscaping the sur- rounding yard, and making a picnic area. Lead even planned to completely decorate a room. They also asked nearby businesses to donate money for the home. “It was hard work and sometimes we had to give up our weekends but we could see our final product right away and it felt really good,” said Holly Wald- mann. Generally, members of the organizations shared the same feeling of warmth in helping the community’s less fortunate individuals. Katrina Nalovic from Inter- act described it as “some- thing to stand for. It lets kids feel like they’re really doing something worth- while.” □ by Susana Kugeares m 1 Service □ 129 Concert Choir — Front row: James Taylor, Jon Lawson. Denise Martin, Michelle McCrea.

Getting it TGGETEEE Clubs plan for success vm a ebster’s dic- tionary de- Vf fines plan- ning as an or- derly arrangement of parts of an overall design or ob- jective. This definition ap- plied to clubs since they had to plan their whole year to be successful. “Total organization from the beginning of the first meeting to the last meeting is essential,” said Becky Newman, the out of school sponsor for Project Lead. One of the first steps in planning was the election of club officers to serve for a year. But, Project LEAD chose new officers for ev- ery new project which oc- curred in the year in order to develop leadership qua- lities in each member. “Our club is unlike most other clubs because our goal is to teach leadership skills,” said Gus Haynes, the school sponsor of Pro- ject LEAD. Officers of other clubs had to plan for the entire year. At their meetings, the officers thought of a va- riety of ideas for projects, parties, and fundraisers. “When planning a pro- ject questions of how much manpower, materials, money, who to talk to for permission, and an alter- nate project should be thought through in order to meet your goal,” said Paul Droubie, a member of Pro- ject LEAD. Then the offi- cers presented their ideas to the club for approval or disapproval. After the members approved the project, goals were estab- lished. The kind of planning necessary for the success of the club depended on the specific activity. For ex- ample, Interact and the Student Government Asso- ciation held a carnival to- gether which required a large amount of prior plan- ning. The money made from this project was don- ated to the Sid Perkins Scholarship Fund. Also, in order to aleviate some of the workload and responsibility of the offi- cers, committees were formed in the National Honor Society to help es- tablish a fundraiser. The French Club planned a fundraiser to help pay for the annual banquet and the annual convention. They sold can- dy and made a total profit of $2000. “It took a long time to get organized and sell the candy, but the end results were great,” said Caroline Schmidt, the vice-presi- dent of the French Club. Project LEAD held a canned food drive in order to help Bethel Bethany, a respite home for retarded citizens which opened in April. They collected over 350 cans of food which sur- passed their goal. “The process of organiz- ing the goal for the project as well as reaching the goal are equally important,” added Gus Haynes. “If a person or club can plan a project which suc- cessfully works then they have learned a great skill to which they may apply in their own personal life,” said Holly Waldman, one of the student coordinators of Project LEAD. □ by Guy Niemann Clearlight — - Front row: Kara Hendry, Lisa Kronschnabl.

FORMING A NEW CLUB Because of an interest in fishing among students, a new club formed called the Fishing Club. Coach Floyd, the sponsor, dis- cusses upcoming events. 4i T HE HEAT’S CN Club competitors feel the pressure t doesn ' t matter if you I™ win or lose, it’s how you play the game This old proverb has, at some time, surfaced in the mind of almost everyone who has ever participated in a game. Usually accom- panying the thought was a sense of anticipation and the sizzle of excitement. The feelings were no differ- ent for the many who took part in club competitions. Like in sports, club com- petitions gave individual teams (clubs) the chance to go out and prove who was best to their opposer. Various organizations such as the band, cheer- leaders, ROTC, Academic Team, and Chess Team all competed for laurels in their respective fields. The band had most of its competitions during the fall. In these events they were judged in areas in- cluding auxiliaries, instru- mental sections, and drum major. The band placed first in all their competi- tions except in the one held at Seminole where they placed second and mi ssed out on the blue ribbon by only two-tenths of a point. When asked about his feelings while competing with the band, Phil New- man responded, “While we would wait for the competi- tion to end and the winners to be announced, I always felt like a little kid. I want- ed to know right then and there who won, I did not want to have to wait.” Another competing group was the Varsity Cheerleading Squad. While competing at the Na- tional Cheerleader’s Asso- ciation (NCA) the cheer- leaders were nominated for the award of excel- lence. Later on in the year, they placed first in a competition held at Tyrone Square Mall. “We worked hard for our wins and 1 think we really deserved them,” said senior Melanie Carv- er, Co-Captain of the Varsi- ty Cheerleading Squad. In addition, ROTC also faced challenges through- out the year. They compet- ed with other schools in the fields of rifle matches, rifle drills, drill steps, and phys- ical fitness. On April 30, ROTC put on a good show- ing at the 6th District Com- petition held in Panama City, Florida. Believing that brain was better than brawn, the Academic Team defeated numerous opposers throughout the year through the use of sheer brain power. The Aca- demic Team competed not only with Academic Teams from surrounding high schools, but also with teams of CHS Faculty. (Whom they were known to beat.) Although reasons for joining the Academic Team varied with each member, Holly Waldman’s was quite unique. “I joined the team because I didn’t want to lose at Trivial Pursuit any- more!” The Academic Team competitions involved four or five teams of four mem- bers each wh o were asked questions ranging from fields of History and Eng- lish to Music and Art. The teams then tried to be the first ones to buzz in with the correct answer. Overall, club competi- tions managed to give their participants the thrill of victory, and sometimes the agony of defeat. □ by Susan Wernsing DECA — Front row: Trlna Chambers, Julie Dillard, Missy Fowler.

Competitions □ 133 A CHANGE CE SCENE Outside activities add new excitement he day was beau- tiful and sunny. The sky was cloudless, the birds were singing, and a slight cool breeze was blowing, add- ing the final touch to the perfect scene. A scene from “The Sound of Mu- sic?” Guess again. This was the setting that many clubs took advantage of for weekend outdoor activi- ties. Several clubs, in an ef- fort to uncover new and exciting activities, tried the great outdoors. Activities included picnics in the park, backyard cookouts, and trips to the beach. The members of the cho- rus held a picnic at Phil- lippe Park to celebrate their successful perfor- mances. Chorus members organized the party and the members of each cho- ral group brought a differ- ent food for the picnic. Up- perclassmen offered car- pools for the other choir members. “We played football, Ka- dema, and just had a good time being together. We had a pretty good turnout and everyone seemed to be having fun,” said Stacey Lewison, a member of Windsong. The French and German clubs combined their mem- bers and held their annual picnic at Phillippe Park. “Not many people showed up because there were a lot of other activi- ties going on that day, but we did have a great time. We played football and frisbee and ate lunch,” said Rina Arakas. Aqua Clara staff mem- bers organized a beach out- ing during the summer. “We wanted to do some- thing fun to help keep us in touch over the summer. We met at Sandkey Beach and played volleyball and ate lunch. We had a huge sandfight and everyone got thrown in the water. We had lots of fun,” said Guy Niemann.

A storm brought several inches of rain and transformed the Pollick’s yard into a field of mud. The rain didn’t put a damper on the fun, howev- er. In fact, CYO members took advantage of the situ- ation by renting movies for the VCR and by battling in the mud outside. Later the rain stopped in time for the barbeque. CYO members enjoyed sitting on the patio while they ate grilled hot- dogs and hamburgers for lunch. “We had a great time running around in the rain and having mud fights in the yard, and everyone ended up getting thrown in the swimming pool!” said Ali Meissner. Clearwater provided plenty of prime settings for outdoor activities.

But only a few really want to learn. Many students have found a way to combine fun with learning by joining an aca- demic club. Instead of being cooped up in a classroom and listen- ing to teachers, these stu- dents were busy learning through first hand experi- ence. They were participat- ing in interscholastic com- petitions and field trips. “The competition in the academic team is great. If you are a competitive per- son, you will always be wanting to know more, to have that special edge. Mainly, my interest to know more stems from curiosity, and our academic competitions teach me things I’ve never known be- fore,” said Paul Maseman, an active member of the academic team. Neil Cole, Vice-President of the science club, be- lieved club field trips helped him experience and learn a lot. “The Museum of Science and Industry left me with a feeling of wonder and amazement. I was so cur- ious. The museum had my full attention. After all, there is no better way to learn something than to ex- perience it yourself.” Clubs prepared mem- bers for their future by teaching them certain voca- tional skills. ‘Future Business Lead- ers of America (FBLA) has helped me a lot in the two years that I’ve been a mem- ber. It has given me a focus on the business world, and how corporations func- tion,” said John Tender, vice-president of FBLA. “I’ve learned many things such as smart con- sumer advice, the effects of good management, and how to start a business. Most importantly, I’ve learned that in order for a business to prosper, every- one must cooperate and be as one,” continued Tender. “Colleges take a greater interest in one who is on the school Academic team (A- team). This club teaches its members to have a general knowledge in the fields of literature, science, history, and math,” said Maseman. “The purpose of the A- team is to hold competitions between schools and to de- termine who is the best in the county and ultimately in the state. It promotes aca- demics all over,” added Maseman. “In the Forensic League (debate club), I learn to per- fect my public speaking. That is very beneficial, es- pecially if I want to pursue a job that involves a lot of public speaking, like a may- or or a lawyer,” said Ed Cole. Field trips that focused on nature allowed the sci- ence club to learn about the ever-changing environ- ment. “The science club has given me an all-around look on life, how things function, and how things relate. That will help me a lot when I finish school,” said Neil Cole. In addition to joining aca- demic clubs for experience, some students participated in the D.C.T. work pro- gram. These students left school after fifth period to go to their jobs in the pro- fessional working world. First hand experience was acquired by being able to spend more time at their jobs. In addition to having fun, students were learning many rewarding things about life through academic experiences. □ by Darcie Jackson Quill and Scroll — Front row: Lynette Eaddy, Martha Galloway, Carrie McLaren.

Learning skills □ 139 Free aid Sponsors give needed advice rina, talked over possible projects and fundraisers with the officers and ex- plained related school poli- cy. “She’ll help us out with projects, but everything we do is up to the officers,” said Anuj Grover. The sponsors of clubs did not give their time and energy to get recognition or honors. Instead they did it to help students, with whom they shared a com- mon interest. Without these sponsors, there would have been no clubs at all. □ by Valerie Wickersham H any factors go into creating an active club. Members, officers, and a common goal are all neces- sary, but a club simply can- not exist without a sponsor. One thing that sponsors gave to improve their club was time. Mr. Kelsey, the band director, helped the marching band for three hours after school in the fall, besides during school. “He spends a lot of time with us to help us im- prove,” said Nelton Gaer- tener, a trumpet player in the marching band and jazz ensemble. Most advisors had a par- ticular interest in the club they sponsored. Mrs. Pa- pas advised drama and In- ternational Thespian Soci- ety (ITS). “Mrs. Papas devotes a lot of her time to make a play work, and she’s enthu- siastic about Drama Club,” said Jennifer Spier, Dora from the fall play “Night Must Fall”. Many sponsors felt that certain clubs helped mem- bers with their futures. Mrs. Stewart, sponsor of the small but very active Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), believed this. “FBLA attracts students interested in a business ca- reer and our activities are designed to develop those interests,” said Mrs. Stew- art. In sponsoring the Usher- ettes for her first time, Mrs. Stone got more involved in the school. She thought the club gave “self confidence and a feeling of belonging to a group.” Advising also included upholding school policy.

Cam hov Clubs find creative ways to raise money lthough not al- ways published in the pages of the Wall Street Journal, the school’s financial activi- ties were numerous. The fund raisers held by clubs were responsible for most of these money matters. Clubs needed money to function and they relied mainly on fund raisers for this money. “Fund raisers are every- where! Everytime I turn around someone is asking for money. ‘Buy this!’ and ‘Sponsor Me!’ are often the most common approaches. I don’t mind but I never want to turn anyone down,” said Lee Ann Brown. Really, there seemed as many types of fund raisers as there were ways to spend the money. The list of common fund raisers in- cluded car washes, candy sales, dances, anything from lift-a-thons to shoot-a- thons, and pre-order sales of all kinds. Most clubs had to search long and hard and pull on their creativity to find a new and potential- ly successful fund raiser. “One of the neatest fun- draisers we thought of was a yard sale here at school. It didn’t go as well as it could have but we enjoyed it,” said Wendy Cooper, the Interact Club’s secre- tary. “It’s really hard to find the right fund raiser. What’s good for one organi- zation is not always good for another. So, one of the hardest parts is choosing from all different kinds of fund raisers one that will work,” said Patricia Ab- dou, the French Club’s sec- retary. After deciding on a fund raiser, clubs then had to or- ganize it and iron out the details as well as work it through. “The work begins after the club decides what they’re going to do. For in- stance, if you’re planning a car wash, the location needs to be set, a deposit put down, and all the pub- licity taken care of. Some- one even needs to make sure there are enough sponges,” said Scott Vo- shall, the President of the Key Club. Then came the final and perhaps, the most impor- tant aspect of a fund raiser, the money. The fund raiser brought in the majority of the money that comprised the budgets of the many different clubs. The amount raised went to- wards many different ac- tivities. “Our pre-order choco- late sale went better than we expected. We made somewhere near $200 for our banquet and conven- tion,” said Caroline Schmitz, the Vice-Presi- dent of the French club. “Kiwanis of Clearwater gave us the opportunity to sell FSU tickets for profit. From it we made $500 to send delegates to our state convention,” said John St. Clair, a Key Club officer. “Fund raisers, apart from raising money, work to bring together club members and raise school spirit which is also impor- tant,” said Melissa John- son. □ by Elizabeth Voulieris Tornadoettes — Front row: Kim Mosher, Jennifer Rohr.

A f — With papers to re- search, problems to work, questions to answer and stories to read, students found themselves forking Overtime ith seventh period over and more than 16 hours until the next class began, the i weary student at last felt like he could lean back and relax for a while. At least, that was his feeling until he peered into his lock- er and discovered more than six hours of home- work waiting for him. Although students spent one third of every week day in class, they could rarely avoid bringing home a pile of work to do. Sometimes research papers, such as the ten page dissertation Dual Enrollment Sociology academics students had to write were the cause of students’ burn- ing midnight oil. Other times, heavy course loads which included classes such as the new Advanced Place- ment Chemistry class were the reason for the plethora of homework. Despite the class time spent looking through Biol- ogy II’s new oil emursion microscopes or thumbing through the new tenth grade World History books, a majority of what students learned still came from the work done during the In-Be- tween Days. □ The child care classes operated their own day care center during fourth and fifth periods.

Members of the English de- partment finally had a chance to enjoy the “face-lift” given to the pods. Walls were painted and moveable ones replaced with permanent walls. One English teacher com- mented, “The renovation add- ed a much needed finishing touch to the pods.” This renovation gave both students and teachers a more functional space in which to work. “You can actually hear your teacher instead of the teacher next door. It really helps my concentration when I’m trying to get something done,” said Dave Sotnick. Furthermore, with the in- creased emphasis on research papers, the media center be- came a more integral part of a students career. “Soldiering,” a play based upon Stephen Cranes “Red Badge of Courage,” was per- formed for the Drama courses as well as the eleventh and twelfth grade English classes. “The play made me see Eng- lish in a different way than just listening to monotonous lec- tures,” said Britt Pogue. Along with modified teaching methods, the English depart- ment received a variety of new books, new computers, and new audio visual equipment. Dan Hillman said, “I hate it when I’m issued a book in poor condition. New books are much better.” Although no major changes were made, numerous smaller changes were made to increase the quality of the English de- partment. □ by Jennifer Nelis STUDY Often students either did not have time or neglected to do their homework.

Many students used Cliffs notes for literature such as Julius Cae- sar. Students even used rela- tives’ notebooks as study aids. Overall students found it very difficult to study without an addi- tional learning aid besides the or- dinary textbook. Often, in literature classes, comprehending the in-depth meaning or theme of novels, plays, and short stories over- whelmed students. Therefore, Cliffs notes were often bought for reading selections such as Cyra- no De Bergerac, The Scarlett Letter, Julius Caesar, and Si- las Marner. A concise interpretation and READING As with most English classes, Literature 10 required students to read classics. To help her through Julius Caesar, Donna Casey picks up Cliffs notes at B. Dalton bookstore. summary of specific works of lit- erature, Cliffs notes served stu- dents as an extra aide. Cliffs notes were not supposed to serve as a substitute for the textbook, however, because important de- tails were omitted. “You can’t just read the Cliffs notes by themselves and under- stand the textbook, you have to read the entire story in the text- book in order to get the full un- derstanding of the material,” said Chris Keats. Frequently, teachers kept the same basic course outline year after year. If a student received the same teacher an older broth- er, sister, or cousin did a few years earlier, then the student could use his brothers, sisters, or cousins notebook to help him study. “I used my cousin’s Biol- ogy II notebook,” said Spiros Komninos. She often caught notes which I missed so it helped to tie everything together for me,” added Komninos. In several courses students formed study groups of three to six people. These groups gave students an opportunity to com- pare their notes for accuracy, study for upcoming tests, write reports or essays together, and share reading assignments. “Study groups give people a chance to interchange ideas about assignments or reports and divide the work of the assign- ment among the group,” said Vince Layden. “I think study groups, if appro- priately used, are an excellent tool, if you trust one another aca- demically,” said the Advanced History teacher, Gus Haynes. “With six other classes to think about, study groups can also be a great moral support for individ- uals,” added Haynes. Students extended their knowledge and understanding of the textbook by using various forms of study aides like Cliffs notes, old notebooks, and study groups. □ by Guy Niemann Academics □ 151 CATCH UP For one reason or another, students found themselves using class time to finish the previous night’s homework.

Voulleris It all adds up Math classes prepare students W ith merit funds cut signifi- cantly for the entire school, the math depart- ment put into effect a new bud- get for their programs. While the department could not afford the extravagances of the previous year, it sought to part the funds to the greatest use. After receiving enough merit money the precious year to allow the math department $10,000, the administration had a smaller amount allotted to distribute to the entire school. This greatly cut down on the amount of money given to each department. Prin- cipal Ed Evans said that he hoped the school’s amount would again increase. Mr. Carswell, head of the Math Department said, “Al- though we received very little money, we were able to purchase new Pre-Algebra and Consumer Math books and new computer programs for compensatory math students.” In order for the school to re- ceive new computers and soft- ware they had to take out a loan from Pinellas County. From this loan they received three Apple HE computers and software. With the great amount of com- puters, the department was able to add on two new computer classes. These classes included Intro to Computers and Comput- er Programming. These classes were taught on twelve Tandy 1000’s. Eight of these computers were received in 1986 from the merit money. “Taking math courses in high school is very helpful in later life,” said Bobby Schlegal. “When a person gets older, they are going to have to know gener- al math to do just about any- thing,” concluded Schlegal. □ by Karin Case and Julie Michael SEA LIFE Surrounded by water, Florida offers : wide variety of sea life.

Students agreed that labs gave them the break they needed before returning to tedious class work. Science classes such as biol- ogy, chemistry, physics, and ma- rine biology were some of the many classes which involved lab work. Biology and marine biol- ogy courses dissected animals like frogs, cats, and sharks. Many students found the smell and pro- cedure of the dissections revolt- ing, but it did not offend every- one. Mr. Ford, the head of the sci- ence department, explained that state law mandated that 40% of all chemistry work be labs. “I made 75-80% of Chemistry II lab work. One reason is be- cause colleges have told me that they want students taking sci- ence majors to have had more high school lab experience,” said Ford. Physics classes did not use ex- pensive chemical consumables like chemistry, but the different mechanisms used for demonstra- tions and experiments balanced the cost. Labs involved certain risks for students. Bunsen burners, chemicals, scalpels, and glass equipment were dangerous when used incorrectly. Even though the labs were graded assignments, students en- joyed them. “I think they’re fun because anything they are better than when we have to listen to a teacher lecture,” said Erin Ken- nedy. Teachers saw more advan- tages to doing labs than disad- vantages. Usually they were more grateful for the labs than they were worried about the dan- gers. Mr. Ford said, “It gives me a chance to catch up with my grad- ing. Also, students can relate to the subject matter better be- cause labs actually show them how it works and how it can af- fect their lives.” Not all students enjoyed lab work, however. Bryce Sevilla said, “I think science labs are sort of useless, unless you’re going to become a scientist.” In Food Management courses, cooking was classified as labs, as well. These classes taught stu- dents how to measure ingredi- ents for baking and how to store and prepare foods properly. Stephanie Jones said, “You’re the one who has to eat the food when it’s done so you try to make it good. It’s also fun to be the best in your class.” Usually, students baked des- serts like banana bread, Baked Alaska’s, and cinnamon rolls. People’s reactions to the aromas emanating from the cooking classrooms and carrying home- made cookies and muffins to the next class were part of the fun of food labs. Although most classes were all work and no play, lab classes in- corporated the two. Afterwards, almost everyone, teachers and students alike, hesitated to go back to the everyday classroom scene. □ by Susana Kugeares PRECISION During a Chemistry lab, Adrian Jackson adds an exact amount of water to his solution. 64 T can’t believe it! I’ve al- ready received five text- JL books this week!” During the first week of school, this was a frequent com- ment among students. Although most classes used textbooks, some courses relieved students by not relying on one whatso- ever. Not having a book for a class offered many advantages to stu- dents. Students had more space in their locker, less homework, less to carry, and no chance of losing the text or having it stolen. Band classes were one of the many classes which did not in- clude textbook study. Since band classes stressed sight reading (playing a piece of music after seeing it for the first time) and practicing (both with a group and individually) to improve tech- nique and sound, there was no need for a textbook. “I’m always glad we don’t have a band textbook. With in- struments, music, and folders, a textbook would be an added has- sle,” said Chris Sanchez, a third year band student. Beginning Weight Training, Art 2D, and Journalism I were also classes that didn’t have a textbook. In such classes, the teacher relied on his knowledge of the subject to produce written outlines or lectures. Other classes such as Peer Counseling, Employability Skills, or a publication emphasized learning through experience and training rather than through a book. Some classes didn’t have a text for oth?r reasons. Before the school year began, the textbook order for AP Chemistry, a new course, was lost in the ordering process. Thus, the students used a lower level book while the teacher was forced to teach from a teacher’s edition (correspond- ing to the new textbook) and his outlined notes. The textbooks fi- nally arrived; however, in mid- November. “In AP Chemistry, studying became quite confusing when our outlines did not match the temporary books, and we missed out on a lot of important reading from the new books that could have helped us,” said Vinh-Loc Nguyen. In many classes, teachers de- cided not to use textbooks in or- der to tailor the students’ needs to the course. As a result, stu- dents found that textbooks weren’t a necessary factor in all classes. □ by Berta Penabades TASTEBUDS Having no textbooks caused no problems for all the students enrolled in the Foods classes.

Scientifically Speaking Science classes teach valuable lessons With three credits in science re- quired to graduate, students could choose anything from basic Ecology to Physics II honors. But no matter what the course, sci- ence constituted a very impor- tant part of everyone’s high school education. “Science is interesting be- cause you learn everything about what you and the world around you are made of,” said Karin Case, “You learn the true meaning of the phrase, ‘You are what you eat’.” Most students agreed that they would use what they had learned in these classes in the long run. Earth Science classes learned valuable information about star constellations and the earth itself. Biology taught about the makeup of things around us. Chemistry classes thoroughly in- vestigated the periodic chart ot elements and all it’s uses. The more advanced classes, such as Marine Biology, Physiology and Anatomy, and Biology 2 enabled the students to go more in depth into certain fields of their inter- est. During a Chemistry lab Tim Hamilton jokingly said, “If the chemistries match, go for it?” But after all the jokes were said most students recognized the importance of taking the re- quired science classes. “Science is killer when you use it the correct way,” said J. P. De- durand. □ by Karin Case and Lori Gilliam LABORATORY Labwork constituted a very important part of most science courses.

This program, now in it’s first year, was instructed by Claudia Jones from third to fifth periods every day. “This program is basically for those children whose mothers need time for themselves and at the same time teaches the stu- dents how to work with and care for children,” said Jones. The children were taught and cared for by students. Having had Child Develop- U ment as a prerequisite course, the students attended a work- shop and learned how to teach concepts to children, detect child abuse, and how to deal with emergencies. Then every week Mrs. Jones gave students a con- cept such as numbers or colors for them to teach the children. The students made out lesson plans weekly, planned meals and snacks, and created games and songs to entertain the children daily. “I’m glad I’m able to teach these kids concepts that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. The other day I was so hap- py because I taught a Spanish speaking boy to count in Eng- lish,” said Sandy Clarizio. During the first few days of the program the children were quiet and shy. Some of the younger ones cried because they were separated from their mothers but in two weeks they were comfort- able with the situation. Problems often arose among the younger children. “The three year olds are defi- nitely harder to control and to teach because they’re not accus- tomed to the school environment yet,” said Rebecca Simon. At the end of the year the stu- dents planned a graduation for the five year olds and any other children not returning to the pro- gram. The children dressed in caps and gowns and received a diploma. K This class not only helped the children by teaching them impor- tant concepts, but it also affected the future of several students. “Working with these children really changed my life. Now I know that I will be happy making a career out of teaching elemen- tary school children,” said Simon. Both the children and the stu- dents benefitted from the child care program. The children learned concepts and exper- ienced situations that would help them in the years to come. Like- wise, the students made a few career decisions and learned to work with children. □ by Berta Penabades 3TI% m Jr i 156 □ Academics ARTIST AT WORK During the time the children stay in Child Care, they participate in activities both education and recreational.

Michael History in the making Programs elevate department U tilizing the money alloted to them from merit funds, the Social Studies teachers worked to improve their depart- ment. They broadened their hori- zons, not only in courses but, in new clubs and programs as well. Mr. Tom Cusmano began a program called Students Target- ed for Educational Performance (STEP), which tutored students needing help with social studies homework. Mr. John Eberts taught a dual enrollment course for St. Petersburg Junior College in American National Govern- ment and Sociology. A new club under the direction of Mr. Richard Haynes, evolved called Project Lead. It was spon- sored by the Junior League and was devised for students to vol- unteer and initiate improvement in the community. In Mr. Campas’ Special American History II class, of- fered for potential drop-outs, stu- dents had a chance to “catch up” with their schooling. Also, updated textbooks re- lieved the expired volumes that were used for so many years by a numerous amount of students. For the first time, Economics was a required course in order to graduate. The challenge provided by a fast growing school provided a need for educational advance- ment. The Social Studies Depart- ment faced this challenge by up- dating programs, classes, and teaching materials to meet each students individual needs. □ by Susan Wernsing Academics □ 157 JUMP With two credits of PE needed to graduate, the stadium was often filled with students. Todd Weller, David Smart, Don Morgan, and Ernie Mezas play basketball. Out of Breath P.E. lives up to its name S ince students needed two credits of P.E. to graduate, most took P.E. in their fresh- man and sophomore years. Through P.E. classes, students improved their health and their skill in different sports. “I wasn’t really into tennis until the coach taught me how to play the right way. Then I really got interested in playing,” said Cathy Salustri. The first year of P.E. classes consisted of team sports and per- sonal fitness. In team sports, bas- ketball, softball, football, and vol- leyball were stressed. Coaches usually introduced a particular sport by having the students participate in drills. For example, before playing games of basketball, the students prac- ticed dribbling, passing, shoot- ing, and learned the rules of the game as well. Students had mixed feelings regarding drills. “Drills are okay, since they do help you prepared for a sport, especially if you’re not that good in it,” said Dale Hutchings. To monitor a student’s im- provement, students were timed in running the mile before and after the personal fitness unit. Students were also weighed and took a variety of skills tests. Throughout the semester, coaches stressed running to im- prove the cardiovascular system. Students jogged laps frequently, utilized the weight room, and learned how to stretch correctly to prevent injuries. “I think the running was really beneficial and helped to lower my time in running the mile,” said Hutchings. The second year of P.E. con- sisted of individual and dual sports and recreational sports. In their second year of P.E., stu- dents participated in sports in- cluding ping pong, badminton, and tennis. Physical education classses not only fulfilled a graduation re- quirement but helped students to improve their sporting skills and their personal health. □ by Berta Penabades DISCUSSION Structured like college classes, A.P classes brought students to question and discuss topics.

In AP English, Eric Rubin looks over his Othello essay test E. Voulierls Students earn college credit orking Ahead W hat is the latest trend in education for college bound students? You guessed it . . . starting college in high school. Many students gained a head start in their college studies by taking Advanced Placement or Dual Enrollment courses. The Advanced Placement Program provided students with the opportunity to take college level courses on the high school campus. The one year courses included English, Calculus, American His- tory, European History and Com- puter Programming. AP Chemistry, a new course, was one of only two AP Chemis- try courses offered in Pinellas County. AP courses were taught in a manner that was new to most stu- dents. AP teachers were given certain College Board criteria that the students were expected to achieve in the course. The course held a fast pace similar to that of a college course that re- quired individual outside work. “You have to search for infor- mation rather than being spoon fed like in other classes,” said Bri- an Ferber. Lectures, class discussions, and practice tests prepared stu- dents for tests. Study groups were formed for the purpose of test preparation. “We’re encouraged to have study groups because it helps us to have different viewpoints which we’ll debate,” said Chris Sanchez. In May, the students had to take the Advanced Placement Examination. Students received scores ranging from a low of one to a high of five. To receive col- lege credit, students had to re- ceive a certain score set by the colleges of their choice. Dual Enrollment, another col- lege program, allowed students to earn college and high school elective credit simultaneously by completing St. Petersburg Junior College courses offered on the high school campus. The two se- mester courses offered were American National Government and Sociology. One difference between Dual Enrollment, taught by Mr. Eberts, and the Advanced Place- ment Program was that no na- tional exam had to be passed to attain college credit. The stu- dents only needed to earn a grade of a C or better in the course. In place of the exam, the students submitted a term paper based on a topic pertinent to the course. To be eligible for Dual Enroll- ment, a student had to have com- pleted his freshman year, main- tained a 3.0 grade point average, and received permission from his high school counselor. “I like Dual Enrollment be- cause it’s an actual college course based on lecturing and in- dividual outside work. Plus there’s no pressure of a national exam,” said Paul Droubie. At the end of the year most students found the experience in Advanced Placement and Dual Enrollment classes rewarding. “AP and dual Enrollment classes are a challenging experi- ence, but all the work, time, and effort were well worth it,” said Suzanne Johnson. □ by Berta Penabades. PRES SURE Studying for the Advanced Placement exams in May put much stress on stu- dents. Scott Voshall completes a work- sheet to help him review the Franch Rev- olution in Ap European History. International Students get a taste of culture W hat one thing does travel- ling to a foreign country, studying an area of medi- cine, and applying to a state-sup- ported college have in common? All three necessitate some knowl- edge of a foreign language. Students interested in taking a course in a foreign language had their choice of four: Spanish, French, German, and Latin. A major reason shy students took a foreign language con- cerned college requirements. To be admitted into a state-support- ed university, a student had to have at least two years of a for- eign language in high school to his credit. All languages were offered on at least four levels which allowed students to advance their profi- ciency in a particular language. The fourth and fifth levels of any language were considered hon- ors courses. “I took Spanish because it would be the most practical in Florida, where so many Spanish people live,’ ' said Cathy Salustri. “Last summer after visiting East Germany I decided to take German. Now when I go back, knowing some German will make things easier,” said Sean Hayes. In French, students learned about French culture. French, taught by Mrs. Nelms, often stressed the lifestyle of teenagers in France in comparision to American teenagers. Many students found advan- tages in taking Latin, taught by Mr. Davis. Although Latin is not spoken, it helped students in their vocabulary and science courses. Others planning on studying in an area of medicine found Latin to be helpful in pre- paring for their career. “I want to be a doctor, so I took Latin for the college require- ments and because it will make studying medicine much easier,” said David Hampton. Whether it involved complet- ing college requirements or fulfill- ing an ambition in their future, students took advantage of the foreign language classes. □ by Berta Penabades The fourth ' arid ' fifth lye rs of a language, were; considered hori lauyuaye, .tunsiaerea noryors ancj carried honors credit.

Society faced abuses such as child abuse, drug abuse, and sexual abuse. Schools faced a different type of abuse, one that did not receive nearly as much recogni- tion, textbook abuse. Students found many ways to abuse books. As the school re- source officer, Steve Brooks, said, “Students battered, toile- tized, burned, wrote in, and even left their books in the rain. Many students said that they abused their texts out of pure boredom. “When a teacher starts to give a speech, doodling is the only thing you can sometimes do to stay awake,” said David Smart. Others did it just for the fun of it. “If the book has already been written in, then I’ll draw some- thing or say something about the teacher in it and put someone else’s name,” said Lance Hidal- go. “I also like to write people’s phone numbers and say ‘For a gooc “1 mor itself Y( in te “Jot in m test S then book “I long does 160 □ Academics pure give only lo to nart. un of been ome- t the eone lidal- pie’s a good time call’ . . . “The graffiti can very well be more interesting than the book itself”, explained Craig Bettis. Yet, some students only wrote in texts to help with studying. “Jotting down things, especially in math, helps when it comes to test time”, said Lee Ann Brown. Some students restricted themselves from writing in their books. “I don’t because it doesn’t be- long to me, so I believe that if it doesn’t belong to you, you should not mess it up. Plus, you usually end up paying for it”, said Lisa Goodman. Teachers believed that stu- dents who did not like school wrote obcenities in ink as a way to get back at their teachers. “Since prices of textbooks are so high, usually $20 or more, and we don’t have the money to buy them, I think there should be a stiff penalty or fine of some sort to be paid by the student who was issued the book”, said Mr. John Eberts. As one teacher explained, “Each year the books are al- lowed to drop one letter in condi- tion. If the book’s condition has dropped more than a letter, be- cause of over abuse, the student must pay 25% of the cost of the book”. “About 80% of the students took good care of their books. The other 20% didn’t realize that the county spent on text- books the money that could have otherwise been used for other programs for the students”, said Debbie Ramker, an assistant principal. The culprits of the textbook abuse responded that their scrib- blings provided a way of leaving a mark on the establishment. However, rather than making a name for themselves to last an infinity, they only helped to has- ten the inevitable destruction of the texts. □ by Lori Gilliam and Karin Case DAMAGE Often, when the books issued to students were returned to teachers, they had un- dergone much wear and tear and were unfit for further use. Books suffered from rain exposure, penmarks, graffiti, and other forms of abuse. PENMARKS Of the many ways texts were abused, writing in or on them was the most com- mon.

As she opened her folder to cram for the test, she noticed her palms were sweaty, and she felt nervous inside. She had to do well on this test. All she could think about was “Did I study long enough? Did I cover all of the material? Well, she was about to find out as the teacher passed out the essay tests. Almost everyone felt pressure when they took a test. “The only time I feel under a lot of pressure is when I’m not really sure about the material,” said junior Nikki Spencer. Everyone also had their favor- ite types of test, for different rea- sons. Ann O’Conner said, “I like es- say tests because if you aren’t positive what you are talking about, you can beat around the bush.” On the other hand, sophomore Cathy Peacock prefers true and false tests, “ . . . because you have a 50-50 chance.” Another popular choice was matching. “I like matching tests because by process of elimina- tion you can narrow down your choices,” said Matt Tamplin. Different types of tests caused students to study differently. For some tests, such as fill in the blank, they might have studied more than if it was matching, or multiple choice. They might also study differently for certain sub- jects and teachers. “I studied differently depend- ing on the teacher and the sub- ject. If you know and understand the subject, you don’t have to study as hard. If the teacher was known for hard tests I studied harder,” said Kim Berfield. Hylah Berenbaum said, “I would study harder for fill in the, blank more than I would for mul- tiple choice because you have tel pull the information from you: ' head for fill in the blank.” Through hours of studying! sweaty palms, and lots of harej work, most everyone survived! tests. □ by Janet Coffee LEGAL CHEAT SHEETS?

Students who experienced this dilemma found help in speaking with a peer facilitator. The peer facilitator program involved selected students to counsel other students in regard to personal problems, study con- flicts, and decision making. The selection of peer facilita- tors involved various require- ments. For consideration, stu- dents filled out an application and were evaluated by teachers and previous peer facilitators. A counselor also interviewed each candidate to evaluate their com- munication skills and personality. “I got interested in becoming a peer facilitator because I like to talk and help people. I heard a lot of good things about it from friends who were already peer facilitators,” said Laura Larson. Once the year’s peer facilita- tors were selected, they were trained in couseling for six weeks. The peer counselors learned to develop such skills as paraphrasing (the ability to listen and restate what has been said), and problem solving. Role play- ing was used to prepare the facili- tators for counseling students. Thereafter, peer facilitators listened to students on an individ- ual basis and guided them in the right direction to solve their prob- lems. Peer facilitators dealt with various problems ranging any- where from physical abuse to de- pression. Many were personally reward- ed by being a peer facilitator. “I get a lot of personal staisfac- tion from being a peer counselor. It makes me feel good to know that I’m helping someone my age to solve problems,” said Bryan Stanley. After a rigorous selection pro- cess and training, peer facilita- tors instilled hope and moral sup- port to students and offered ad- vice in finding a solution to their problems. □ by Berta Penabades Peer Facilitators — Front row: Holly Waldmann, Susanne Johnson.

Take out sev- I en or eight sheets of pa- per, one or two if you don’t know much ...” These words, extremely famil- iar to Mrs. Steele’s students, marked the beginning of yet an- other Biology I Honors test. Although studying for tests seemed like a never ending job, some students took initiative and got it done. Various studying techniques complimented the personality of each student. Word association was one way students studied for tests. In this technique, a hard to remember word was associated with a more common, everyday word. Psy- chologists agreed that this was one of the easiest ways to learn unfamiliar material. Study notes were also a popu- lar study aide. “I sit down when it’s quiet and no one is home and then I make study notes,” said Kimberly Lynn. Furthermore, study notes could again be used at the end of the semester while reviewing for exams. Though many study tech- niques were employed, most agreed that the best way to study was to go over the material re- peatedly. “I go through the material and take notes. Then I re-read every- thing and study my notes some more,” said Tim Owen. Thoroughly preparing for a test required not only good study techniques, but also sufficient time. And when time could not be found — well, time was made. “Whenever I had a test in the latter part of the day, I set my alarm early so I could get up and study. Usually though, I would just go back to sleep. I guess 1 always ended up studying during first period!” said Angela Serina. Even after a night of studying, taking a test was rarely a “piece of cake”. Nerves were often a problem. “I got really nervous — until I stepped into the room. But once I was there, I relaxed ... if I had studied,” said Kara Henry. “Tests are like going on stage in front of an audience. If you freeze up then you won’t per- form well, no matter how much preparation you did,” said Jean- nine Edwards. Overall, it didn’t matter how, where, or even when students studied, just that they did. □ by Susan Wernsing and Lunette Eaddy TELEPHONE Instead of studying by oneself, sometimes students study with their friends.

Whether its a small lawn mowing service or a nationwide chain of fast food restaurants, bu- sinesses play a part in everyone’s life. With all the business courses offered, many students found a course suited to their needs. De- pending on their interests, stu- dents could take business courses dealing with anything from typing to on-the-job train- ing. Typewriting 1 Fundamentals, a one year course, was very pop- ular among many students for its practicality. ‘‘I took typing because it will come in handy in other classes and later on in life,” said Luci Sacher. The use of computers in typ- ing and data processing classes introduced students to the impor- tance of computers in business. Computers such as the TRS-80 and other systems were utilized in Word Processing and Business Computer Programming as well. For others interested in a fu- ture concerning accounting or law, courses were available cov- ering those areas. In Accounting 1 2, students learned the prin- ciples of bookkeeping and other business transactions. Business Management and Law covered the free enterprise system and taught students how businesses are operated successfully. Students interested in business as a future career participated in on-the-job training programs such as Business Cooporation Education. This program com- bined classroom instruction with supervised on-the-job training in a business or office occupation that matched the student’s ca- reer interest. Business Cooperat- ive Education gave students the experience of what operating a business was really like. With the variety of business courses offered, students were usually able to find a course that suited their needs or interests. □ by Berta Penabades Academics □ 165 Good for You Students learn much in health U pon entering the Health classroom, students ex- pected to hear about good eating habits and staying in shape, but instead, found them- selves discussing subjects which they considered both interesting and helpful. Health classes covered a wide variety of topics. These ranged from discussions on physical fit- ness and personal well-being to the topics about relationships and sexually transmitted dis- eases. Many students who took health felt that they benefited from the experience, in that they were given a chance to discuss topics which they felt they could not talk about with their parents. Dionna Long, a freshmen, said, “I think the class will be helpful, because it will give me information on things that I don’t know and am afraid to ask my parents.” The class also helped the stu- dents prepare for the future by teaching them skills which could be used throughout their lives. Right now the students are not concerned with being healthy and living a long life, but hopeful- ly this will put them in the right frame of mind for later,” Coach Roberson said. Besides learning how to help themselves through units such as human growth and development, family life, and substance abuse, the students learned how to save the lives of others through Cardi- pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and first aid. The Health Department not only taught the students about good habits, but also taught them how to apply these habits in their own lives. Said Coach Roberson, “We try to improve the decision making process of the students by showing them that it is their decision about how long they live” □ by Mari Roby HEALTH Students filling their requirement to grad- uate, enrolled in Health classes.

St. Petersburg Times journalist Tom French tells the class about a series of articles he wrote, ‘A Cry in the Night.’ Speakers share insight xperience Talks I n the name of learning, stu- dents sat in class and listened to the monotonous drone of their teacher’s voice for fifty min- utes. Although some considered the sentence fun, others mostly agreed that listening to the same teacher day after day was some- what dull. One way the teachers relieved the monotony was to invite guest speakers to speak to the students on various subjects. This simple solution not only benefited the students, but also the teacher who wanted relief from viewing tired “children” all day long. The appeal of a new face sounded fascinating to students. Not only was it a change of sce- nery but, the pressure of “know- ing the answer to please the teacher” was also relieved. While they sat back and relaxed, they absorbed the information their new, temporary “teacher” conveyed to them. “Guest speakers were brought in to give the students an idea of what business people expected of them, and that’s just what they did,” said Mr. Napier. The teachers of business classes (namely Ann Stewart, Steve Gerakios, and Parra By- ron), brought in people to speak on subjects such as How to Dress for Work, and employability skills. Offered to students was a ! speaker with information on loans and jobs with the country. The military career pursuers weren’t left out of the picture ei- ther. Chuck Hubbard came to Mr. Gerakios’s class and spoke to careers in the military for stu- dents who wanted to be “all they could be.” Along with advice for the fu- ture, students were also present- ed with more personal informa- tion. Speakers informed students on subjects such as stress, pre- natal care, birth control, nutri- tion, and modern medicine. For all students, Sue Snare and Steven Brooks hosted a seminar on crack in the audito- rium. Most agreed that crack was over-publicised by the adminis- trators. “When they bring up drugs, half the people don’t know what they’re talking about, and the people that do know don’t listen anyway!” said David Bates. Overall, students and teacher agreed that having guest speak- ers both changed the scenery of the classroom and brought the everyday world into the class- room. □ by Susan Wernsing DRUGS Crack cocaine was often found to be the topic of a conversation.

But even if one didn’t plan to go into one of these professions, the classes were still helpful. “Shop gave me the training to fix lots of things, if I ever need to,” concluded Chris Cochran. □ by John Goodgame HEAVY METAL Learning how to use equipment is a big part of Metai shop.

Droubie 168 □ Academics Students work long and hard aximum Overload T he weary eyes student sat in his desk as he finished his AP Calculus assignment. He looked at the clock and no- ticed it was past midnight. Realiz- ing that he still had to write a lab report for Chemistry 2 and study for an oral test in French 4, he reluctantly got back to work. This was a familiar scenario to students with a heavy course load. Whether they took a variety of honors courses or concentrated on taking numerous classes in one subject area, many students carried heavy course loads for a number of reasons. The most prominent reason among students concerned col- lege. Since many honors courses imitated college courses, a heavy class load made the transition be- tween high school and college less difficult. “Many students who have tak- en Chemistry 2 have reported back to me, saying that college level chemistry was relatively easy. These students are usually ahead of their peers in college due to their high school back- ground,” said Mr. Ford, a chemis- try teacher. In addition, students carried heavy course loads to strengthen their academic records. Since colleges were very selective due to the large number of appli- cants, a strong high school record increased a student’s chance of acceptance. Others decided that getting a head start in a career was reason enough to create a heavy class load. For example, a student who planned on becoming a doctor took as many science and math courses as possible. “I’m taking a lot of upper sci- ence and math classes because I want to become a pediatrician. Even though it’s a lot of hard work, I think that it’s necessary to prepare myself for the career I’ll be getting into,” said Laura Twining. Some students were pressured into taking honors courses by their parents, or friends. “Even though I’ve always struggled in English classes, my parents wanted me to take hon- ors English this year,” said Britt Pogue. Once they started their classes, students encountered disadvantages and pitfalls in tak- ing numerous upper level courses simultaneously. Many students went to great lengths to keep up with their classes which sometimes meant risking their health by going to school sick or staying up late at night. “I’ve experienced many nights where I wouldn’t go to sleep. I’d just stay up and do homework all night because I couldn’t afford to get behind all my classes,” said Sue Taylor. Also people noticed that their grades suffered when they were forced to devote less time to a particular subject. Susanne Johnson who took six periods of Advance Placement and Dual Enrollment courses said, “I have to give up a lot of my free time in order to keep up, but I know that I’ll be glad I did once it’s over.” Even though they endured sleepless nights and enormous quantities of homework, students felt that carrying a heavy course load was vital preparation for their futures. □ by Berta Penabades .V.

Academics □ 169 P Droubie 170 □ Academics Demonstrations benefit students atch this . . . W hen students signed up for unfamiliar courses, they dreaded long, te- dious lectures in a terminology they couldn’t understand. How- ever, once they found out the class involved demonstrations they discovered that experience made the class more interesting. Teachers and students had various reasons for performing lab experiments and demonstra- tions. Students were given a first- hand insight on the material they studied. Teachers performed demon- strations to the whole class to mo- tivate the students. “Demonstrations were helpful to me because I understood bet- ter what my teachers were say- ing when they showed us what they meant,” said Laura Pyros. A major reason for demonstra- tions being incorporated into SEW, WHAT’S UP? Learning to sew takes time, practice, and instruction. Tara Elliot receives assistance from the sewing instructor, Mrs. Way. courses concerned college. Most students found high school lab experiences to be beneficial in their college courses. “I’ve found that performing labs in high school makes it easier for the students once they get into college,” said Mr. Ford. Lack of materials played a large part in the limited number of experiments that could be per- formed. In addition, many mate- rials such as toxic or flammable materials were too dangerous for the students to handle without di- rect supervision. Many teachers did not per- form labs and demonstrations be- cause of several disadvantages. Many labs turned into a free time for the students. In addition, it took two to three times longer to prepare materials than the actu- al time of the demonstration. Plus lab work took away from any other scheduled activities. “Though labs are a learning experience it tends to take away from learning the basic materi- als,” said Mr. Gliha. Demonstrations were not just a part of science classes. It was also a regular part of home eco- nomics, typing, computers, and various other courses offered. “In my cooking class the teacher demonstrated what to do and everyone tried to do it,” said Mariah Marshall. Although there were various reasons for different kinds of demonstrations, both teachers and students agreed it was a helpful way to learn and under- stand the material better. □ by Jennifer Nelis and Berta Penabades WATCHIN’ CLOSELY Mrs. Stone, Home Economics teacher, demonstrates to her students the proper way to program a microwave. Crimson Cup, a huge success ervice with a smile 461 1 T hen am I ever going to need to know this in the future?” This was a common question in classes where frustrated students felt they had no use for the sub- ject matter. Few complaints were heard, however, in Fundamen- tals of Food Management taught by Mrs. Stone. Through experi- ence in running their own food business, the Crimson Cup, the students learned the importance of the class. The Crimson Cup, in its first year, was a student operated cof- fee shop that sold breakfast to the school staff, administrators, and classes with advanced reser- vations. The purpose of the in- school coffee shop was to show students the importance of run- ning a food-oriented business. This economic education project was open during first period on % Thursdays and Fridays to serve foods including sour cream coffee cake and angel buscuits. To instill organization and efficiency, stu- dents were each assigned a task on a rotation basis. Students such as Tim Wojciechowski, master baker, arrived early in the morn- ing to set the angel biscuits out to rise. On the remaining days, stu- dents prepared foods, evaluated business operations, and partici- pated in class instruction. Many faculty members who bought breakfast at the Crimson Cup ap- preciated the service and its pro- ducts. “The breakfast was delicious, the service wonderful, and the whole ides is tops!” said Mrs. Espey. Although all money made was re-ivested in the business, the main objective was to use the Crimson Cup as a learning tool to give students experience in run- ning a business and to fulfill course guidelines at the same time. David Thomas said, “I’m inter- ested in becoming a gourmet chef so the Crimson Cup has giv- en me good experience.” “The Crimson Cup provided students with an excellent oppor- tunity to experience the free en- terprise system and the products and services were outstanding,” said Mrs. Cheatham. The Crimson Cup was not only a coffee shop, but a catering ser- vice as well. Students displayed additional skills and creativity by catering three mock wedding re- ceptions for the Family Living Classes. They also catered a Christmas party for a service or- ganization which involved pre- paring food for 150 people. Another objective of the stu- dent operated business was to enter the Crimson Cup project in the Economics Fair in the spring sponsored by the Suncoast Chamber of Commerce. The stu- dents prepared a display depict- ing an overview of the Crimson Cup business a company by com- putergraph (designed by David McKenzie), and a video of an ac- tual Crimson Cup operation. Principal Ed Evans said, “I feel that the Crimson Cup provided the students with excellent hands on experience. The teachers leadership and preparation made this a worthwhile project. Many faculty members and stu- dents would like to see this con- tinue.” □ by Berta Penabades 1C V- V- DELICIOUS By winning the can food drive, Mr. Cars- well’s 1st period class got to enjoy the food served by the Crimson Cup.

J Michael Just for you Student services lend a hand W hen students needed in- formation about choos- ing courses, picking the right college, getting a job, or just someone to talk to, they could always go to Student Services. The Guidance Department of- fered a variety of services to stu- dents. The students could find catalogues from a number of col- leges all over the U.S., special high schools for specially talent- ed students, the program for the Academically Talented and the Program for the Artistically Tal- ented. Each month the depart- ment published the “forecastor ” which gave students information about SAT ACT dates and prep- aration classes, scholarships, and when college representatives were visiting the school. Counsel- ors helped the students when they had personal problems, set up group seminars for each grade level, and helped in choos- ing colleges, financial aid infor- mation, and college applications. Ano ther important person in student services, Mr. Napier the occupational specialist, helped students make career decisions. He was also in charge of Career Day and career counseling. “I also help soon to be drop outs by putting them on the work program as an alternative,” said Napier. Other programs that were of- fered to students were TIPS counselors, who dealed with the area of sexuality. When students had problems with attendance, personality, or achievements, the school social worker was there to help. There was also an atten- dance counselor, who dealt with students who had problems with their attendance. In addition to the counselors, Student Services included a uni- formed police officer known as the School Resource Officer. Of- ficer Brooks spoke to classes about law enforcement and con- ducted criminal investigations on violations that dealt with the School Board property. Student Services provided an- swers concerning the present and future for the students, while also providing help with personal problems. □ by Julie Michael Academics □ 173 174 □ Ads Plasma Corp. of Clearwater 534 Cleveland 447-2744 The Plasma Corp. supports the community AND GET ROLLING DELTA AIR LINES, ADatasn You ' re making your own decisions and your own money.

A ut«j i| M ytMw rvW W TRENDS Public goes overboard on hen baby on board signs and car shades made their first appearance on the market, consumers wel- comed them with open arms. Drivers unfamiliar with the rear car window messages were amused by their sight. Car own- ers found the cardboard devices to be sound protection from the sun’s damaging rays. However, such car assessories that started out as practicalities soon turned into an obsession with manufac- turers to create money making novelties. The yellow, diamond-shaped car signs affixed to the rear win- dow by means of a single suction cup in the uppermost corner. Ori- ginally, the message functioned as a warning in case of an auto- mobile accident. If the driver was rendered unconscious, the sign in- formed others that a child may have been hidden within the car in need of rescue. Within a short period of time, these signs gave way to an infinite number of rear-view “ . . . on board” messages including ones stating “Ex-boyfriend in trunk.” (Some even went as far as to place a tie hanging half-way out of the car trunk.) “Every time I see one of those signs it makes me want to ram the car,” said senior Anuj Grover, jok- ingly. Hysteria over car shades led to a similar population explosion. “They popped up out of no where overnight,” said junior Lisa Kronschnabl. “One day they were nonexistent and then every- one had one.” The folded cardboard sheets originally served to protect a car’s interior from the sun. The first shades to hit the market were decorated with an oversized picture of a pair of red sun- glasses. Later variations brought green, blue, and yellow versions of the glasses. Eventually, the idea evolved into pictures of sail- boats, surfers, landscapes, and the inevitable shots of scantily- clad female bodies. On the other side of the car shade was an emergency mes- sage telling others to call the po- lice. If the driver ran into car trou- ble along a highway, the sign was supposed to bring him help. Many drivers saw the message as an opportunity for amusement and utilized it rather than the decorative side. This left drivers apprehensive to ever believe the messages were for real. “It’s all just a fad,” concluded Kronschnabl. “I’m sure they’ll be goneasquicky as they came!” □ by Carrie McLaren T-i Health 9 desserts Frozen Uellgnt satisfy tastebuds W hile loyal ice cream fans passed up a slew of other frozen dairy products for their one true love, they did not realize what they were missing. It only took a sam- pling of one of the many low-fat alter- natives offered on the market for many ice cream lovers to turn over a new leaf. Foods such as frozen yogurt and sorbet, once considered desserts for the well-disciplined health food ad- dict, hit new heights with the general public. Even individuals uncon- cerned with the nutritional value of their food found themselves turning to low-calorie, low-fat, or cholesterol- free desserts for the sake of taste. “Frozen yogurt tastes exactly like ice-cream,” commented Lynette Robbins. Frozen yogurt, made from an ac- tive milk culture, was the most wide- spread of frozen snacks. A number of local establishments catered to one of three major brands, each with their own assorted flavors. Amaz- ingly similar to soft serve, yogurt was low-calorie, low-fat, and low choles- terol. Also in the pseudo-soft serve fam- ily, lactose-free, low cholesterol tofu products were safe for people unable to digest milk. Usually derived from soybean power, such products were high in vegetable fat and calories. Since very few eateries carried soft tofu desserts, most consumers pur- chased hard-packed versions of the product in pints at local grocery stores. Gelato or Italian ice cream was made with fruits or nuts, cream, and egg yolks. Usually found in mall food courts, Gelato was lower in fat and calories than regular ice cream. “Frozen yogurt is ecstasy,” said ju- nior Becca Kert. “God created yo- gurt to keep girls skinny and hap- py.” □ by Carrie McLaren 178 □ Intermission -Fashion Sense carrie mclaren A s I sat ere in P ace 0 f employment I got a clear view of f If the world of fashion in the somewhat (J luxurious Clearwater Mall.

Fall brought an overdose on metallic apparel. Silver and gold shoes, belts, and handbags added the finishing touches to any electromagnetic outfit. In coordination with the latest hair ornament fad, some young women wore a trendy bow in matching metallic prints. The full impace of the trend was realized at PAK’s annual Silverbell dance, where metallic formals were in vogue. Updated western styles also appeared on the front. Light denim clothes adorned with rhine- stones and metal studs came in a variety of styles. Of course, the true fashion conscious would not have been caught dead without at least one pair of boots to match. The resurgence Pe-Ps?

Everywhere from Seattle to Tole- do, bustling attractions like Tam- pa’s Harbour Island were pop- ping up to add flavor to humdrum downtowns. Festival marketplaces were large complexes on a waterfront or in a historic building, with a wide variety of specialty shops and restaura nts. The multi-mil- lion dollar projects were usually only erected in metropolitan areas. The first marketplace, Faneuil Hall in Boston, was by shopping mall developer Rouge in 1976. According to most counts, Faneui Hall had more visitors each year than Disneyland. Local marketplaces could boast no such profit. Both Har- bour Island and Hamlin’s Landing in Indian Rocks Beach ran into financial trouble shortly after opening. Like other crowd-pleas- ing markets, both establishments had the requisite fresh fudge maker, offbeat card shop, and endless selection of restaurants. Many developers felt that Har- bour Island’s main problem was its lack of identity. “If it doesn’t capture the flavor of an area, it won’t succeed,” said Cathy Likteig, a Rouse Co. offi- cial. While improvements were still being made to draw more cus- tomers to the local marketplaces, arrangements were being made to establish marketplaces in Mi- ami, Jacksonville, and two in Or- lando. Miami’s $120 million Bay- side project was anticipated to be the most likely to prosper. To avoid lookalike qualities of the other market places, the Rouse Co. planned to convey the ethnic diversity of the city in its selections of businesses and de- sign motiffs. With proper plan- ning, developers hoped to escape the financial problems of the oth- er Florida marketplaces. □ by Carrie McLaren IN I | Metallic shoes Psuedo Health foods Long underwear The 60 ’s Horn-rimmed glasses Button fly jeans OUT Jelly shoes Smoking in public Wearing more than one watch at a time Romance Stirrup pants Jw AivtytfAAj1y SCHOOL ‘ Academic Challenge LHS Issues T he football field and basketball court were common grounds for school ri- valry. However, the student council of Largo High School challenged stu- dents at CHS to bring this rivalry into the class- room. After a brief revision of the original competition CHS accepted Largo’s challenge. Each six week grading period students from both schools battled for the best grades and attendance. Every student from both schools were involved The academic challenge was the brainchild of Largo Senior class President Michael Colitz. After approving the challenge with his own student council, Colitz visits CHS to present the challenge for exceptance by SGA. in the competition. The winner of the challenge was the school with the most A’s and B’s, the least grade point averages below 1.5, and the lowest percentage of absences. The winner received a trophy to remain in their possession for the following six week grading period and an article published in the losing school’s newspa- per. The original idea for the challenge came from Lar- go senior class president Michael Colitz, during what Largo High’s Principal, Judith Westfall called, “a brainstorming session for improvement.” “Grades and attendance seemed to be slipping near the end of first semester and we wanted to promote awareness in these areas,” said Westfall. “The academic challenge seemed to be the solution.” “Clearwater is our biggest rival in sports, so we decided to extend that rivalry to the area of academ- ics,” stated Colitz. The original challenge presented by Largo com- pared only the percentage of A’s and B’s and also allowed the winning school to place a message on the losing school’s marquee. “We asked that Largo make a revision in the origi- nal challenge because we wanted to include all stu- dents who can pass their classes, not just those who receive A’s and B’s. We also felt that the marquee part of the challenge should be omitted to prevent vandal- ism to either school,” said SGA president Elizabeth McArthur. Tim Owen, senior class representative said, “the revision helped to get rid of any negative aspects of the challenge.” At the end of each grading period, the grades and attendance record were averaged from a county printout. Principals and student represen- tatives from each school met to compare statistics. McArthur said, “We’re really going to try to win but, as for the outcome, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.” □ by Martha Galloway When Largo’s student council came to present the chal- lenge, they brought with them a host of television and newspaper reporters.

The senior swim team member ar- rived at the 5:15 a.m. practice and, after stretching out, began swimming laps to prepare for the team’s up- coming season. “After having such great times at the Red and Gray Meet, I though this season would turn out the best yet,” said Harrison. The unproved, unexpected sei- zure caused Harrison, a prize win- ning, ranked swimmer, to begin to drown. Doctors at Clearwater Com- munity Hospital later stated the cause of the disorder in an athlete of Harrison’s stature was uncertain. “All of a sudden I guess I blanked out,” said Harrison. Harrison’s lungs reportedly filled with water, causing him to sink to the bottom of the pool. Fellow teammate Jim Scott assumed Harrison was resting on the bottom to escape addi- tion laps. When Harrison remained stagnant, Scott investigated the mat- ter and pulled Harrison to the sur- face. Coach David Paul administered cardio pulmonary resusitation (CPR) when Harrison showed no signs of pulse or breathing. Steve Dyer, a registered lifeguard and a graduate of CHS, assisted Paul. Team mem- bers called an ambulance and ran to every corner of the school to insure no time was lost in getting profession- al help to Harrison. “The team was perfect,” said Har- rison. “Almost as if they’d been through this a hundred times.” Paramedics rushed Harrison to the hospital where tests such as the EEG were run to determine the cause of the incident. Upon waking, Harrison found Paul and Principal Ed Evans in his hospital room. “With my dad out of town and ev- erything, the whole school gave me all the support anyone could ask for,” said Harrison. Care for Harrison after the acci- dent included medication and check- ups. He was also restricted from driving for a year. “It’s one of those things I’ll never forget,” said Harrison. □ by Liz Voulieris Junior Jim Scott pulled his friend, Jim Harrison, out of the pool when he saw him resting on the bottom. 180 □ Intermission i f ith the national in- crease in drug abuse awareness, adminis- trators of several Pinellas County schools helped to spread the news of the drug, “crack” when school reopened in the fall. Crack, a concen- trated form of cocaine had re- cently become one of the most marketable drugs in the nation. The process to make crack was simple. Ordinary cocaine was mixed with baking soda and water into a solution that was then heated in a pot. This material was dried and broken into chunks that dealers sold as crack rocks. Crack was sold in small vials or plastic bags containing two or three concentrated rocks. These rocks were up to ninety percent pure cocaine. Small amounts could be purchased for an average of five to ten dollars. Unlike other forms of co- caine, crack was smoked rather New form of cocaine causes controversy than snorted or injected. The convenience and it’s inexpensive price added to crack’s appeal. Although it had been around for years under vari- ous names, crack had only recently increased in availability. Several cases of crack use had been reported during the year at schools in the northern states. However, when Pinellas County ad- ministrators held county-wide semi- nars to warn stu- dents of the effects of crack, the stu- dents were unaware of a crack problem. In fact, no cases of crack cocaine had been found in any Pinellas County school. School Resource Officer Steve Brooks explained that Vj: :P yxsX VV, administrators wanted to warn students of the dangers of crack before it was too late. “The dangers are just too great for anyone to risk ” said Brooks. “Aside from the possi- bility of overdose, crack can affect several other parts of the body. Smoking crack can cause lung damage, heart at- tacks, stroke, and general poor health.” The rapid deteriora- tion of the body was usually ac- companied by a loss of appetite, de- pression, and psycho- logical prob- lems. In addition, crack sometimes caused addic- tion after just one use. The National Institute on drug Abuse estimated that an addic- tion to regular coke normally developed after three to four years while the typical crack user became hooked after only six to ten weeks. Fortunately for CHS stu- dents, an article in Clearlight reported only four percent of the students surveyed had ever tried crack cocaine. “If it’s everywhere, how come I haven’t come across any?” said sophomore Lessa Vecco. According to principal Ed Evans, the emphasis placed on stopping drug abuse resulted from the national exposure to it rather than an actual increase in drug abuse. “Too much emphasis is being put on the crack situation,” said senior Maggie Taylor. “Perhaps if less attention was paid to it, then maybe the novelty of it would die and the usage will de- crease.” □ by Carrie McLaren water Clinic causes concern I mm T he School Based Adoles- cent Health Program to be introduced at Gibbs High School was opposed at the School Board meeting on October 22, by a voting of 5-1. In the proposal, minor and acute ill- nesses, acute medical emergencies, chronic illnesses, educational counsel- ing, and referral services would have been provided for the students. Also, diagnostic testing, screening, and treat- ment would have been offered. This in- cluded pregnancy testing and a child care program. The pregnancy testing, available to students on request with parental con- sent, brought most of the fuss at the meeting. A majority of the speakers said this was taking over parental control. Although birth control and contracep- tives were not mentioned in the pro- posal, the parental consent form men- tioned “assistance with selection of a method of contraceptives ...” which f am very suspiscious ojj the state j having so much con - 1 Ad F Anderspn led parents and church leaders to believe they may be added at a later date. Addie Anderson, of Concerned Women of America and a speaker commented, “I am very suspicious of the state having so much control in ‘taking care of our children’. I believe the clinic will lead to a breaking away of the teenager from the parent to the state.” One reason the Juvenille Welfare Board of Pinellas County (JWB set up the program was to reduce the dropout rate and keep students in school. One speaker argued that four hun- dred students went home last year be- cause they simply couldn’t take an as- pirin. He believed a Health-Clinic could help keep more people in school. Anderson explained, “Students should have to take the consequences of dropping out of school. We should not give students an easy way out of getting pregnant.” Many students were concerned with the proposal. “It’s a good idea if they keep it within boundaries,” said junior Frank Ar- mitage. “But they shouldn’t overtake parental control in dispensing drugs. Some girls may be scared to seek help from someplace else concerning preg- nancy.” □ by Karen Mayer Intermission □ 181 SCHOOL E F wing receives new tiling B. R ilpu A s part of the school’s “face lift,” the en- closed E and F wing received a “floor lift.” Beginning in December, the rooms in F- wing had their original tile floors ripped up and new ones put down. “I’m not exactly sure how long this tile has been down but it desperately needs to be replaced. They tell us it’ll take approximately nine hundred man hours with four men working at a time,” said a workman. Though school board officials believed the improve- ments were necessary, they caused many inconven- iences. Teachers’ routines were disrupted by having to move around to unoccupied classrooms. Students also needed to be re-routed. The construction continued and further inconven- iences were brought on when work began on the hallway tiles. Classes in E and F wing were subjected to noisy machines and workmen. “It seems to me that the new tile is really creating more work because people will now be needed to wax and replace the new tile,” said teacher George Carswell. □ by Liz Voulieris { i Fake I.D.’s: Minors find path to alcohol early three years after the state of Florida voted to raise the drinking age from nineteen to twenty- one, its decision began to hit home with high school students. Increasing strict enforce- ment of the law provoked many mi- nors, in desperation, to turn to using false identification. Facing a five hundred dollar fine if caught selling alcoholic beverages to minors, businesses placed greater emphasis on checking identification or “carding” customers. Once able to freely buy alcohol, minors rarely found it possible with the stringent policies. The most accessable form of fake I.D., college and state cards, were often refused by restaurants, nightclubs, and stores. Rather than abandoning the el- bow-bending habit, confirmed under- aged drinkers sought alternate forms of identification. Many ob- tained actual Florida driver’s li- censes from older siblings or friends. To test a customer’s identity, those who served alcohol asked questions concerning the information on the li- cense when in doubt. Oftentimes, minors managed to alter their own driver’s license if acci- dentally given a blue portrait back- ground signifying legal age. One method included carefully carving out the numbers of the birth year and exchanging them with numbers elsewhere on the license. Another way involved using carving and pen- menship skills to craftily alter the year of birth. However, for the ap- proximate three fourths of the stu- dent body born in 1970 or after, such a task was mission impossible. “I could change the seven in 1971 into a two but I think they’d think I was a suspicious-looking sixty-six year-old,” said sophomore Eddy Green. When minors were unable to obtain actual driver’s licenses, some made their own. After randomly se- lecting a state remote to the area, they used press-on lettering, stencils, and tool lines to create a counterfeit license the size of a poster board. The board was then photographed and reduced, set aside a passport photo, and laminated. As with any illegal activity, the of- fender risked the chance of getting caught. After senior Patty Brewer de- posited film taken of her Kentucky replica license at a photo shop in Clearwater Mall, store employees called mall security and had them fol- low Brewer out to her car. After tak- ing note of her license plate number, security informed the police. When officers came to pay Brewer a visit, her family had already departed unk- nowingly on a one week trip to Ohio. Upon returning from her trip, Brewer was confronted at home by police offi- cers. For punishment, Brewer had to write a report, attend special courses and tour the county jail. “I never should have made the I.D.,” said Brewer. “It just isn’t worth the consequences. I never even used it.” Despite the risk, minors continued to invent new methods of false identi- fication.

And what on earth did he need with a toilet seat? Had mom pursued her pre- cious son, she would have dis- covered that he was taking part in the latest high school craze, scavenger hunts. The idea developed the beginning of second semester. Students gathered at a designated loca- Co ( tion to clock in and get a list of abstract objects. All teams re- turning by the deadline were judged based on the number of things they had collected from the list. Some items required tasks to be performed or questions to be investigated. Many were controversial or illegal and, therefore, were not approved by school administrators. Student organized lists re- quired competitors to collect such objects as street signs, door mats, soiled diapers, and even toilet seats. “A scavenger hunt ended at § my friend’s house where I was staying,” said Shelly Herrin. “When the cops came be- cause of the noise, everybody cleared out and left us with a big mess from all the stuff they were throwing away.” Each team paid an en- trance fee that combined in a pool that was awarded to the winning team. After racking up the most points in one scavenger hunt, junior Mar- geret Budner’s team ran into conflict with another team claiming to be winner. “I guess we’re going to have a ‘scavenger hunt-off’ to find out who the real winner is,” said Budner.” Organizations such as De- molay held legalized scaven- ger hunts. Demolay called their expeditions ‘Road Ral- lies’ and used car mileage, time, and points for answered questions to determine a win- ner. Said Justin Sloan, “Scaven- ger hunts are a lot of fun and it gives us something to do at night. As long as no one is harmed, there is no reason to try to stop kids having some fun.” □ by Carrie McLaren Twelve students elected for Hall of Fame very year, the Aqua Clara staff made an effort to acknowledge some of the top students in the senior class by publishing a Hall of Fame. Stu- dents were nominated by teachers and then voted on by the teachers to determine the Hall of Fame finalists. The Aqua Clara staff de- cided to announce Hall of Fame winners during the middle of the school year rather than the end. Winners were announced over the intercom and later received plaques acknowledging their achievement. The 1987 Hall of Fame were: Tim Owen — member of clubs such as FBLA, SGA, the aca- demic team, and admired for his leadership skills. Cheryl Barcenas — One out of only four girls chosen to partici- pate in Girls’ State and second runner-up in the Pinellas County Junior Miss Pageant. Dennis Foster — Active in church youth group and running back of varsity football team. Elizabeth McArthur — Fresh- man class, sophomore class, and SGA President. Randy Williamson — Won sec- ond place in Voice of Democracy contest, active in NFL. Madre Barber — President of PAK and senior class, Homecom- ing Queen, and captain of the cheerleading squad.

On February 4, Connor managed to snag the America’s Cup back from Australia after completing a 4-0 sweep the final day of competi- tion for the trophy. Connor’s Stars and Stripes, a blue-filled boat with red and white lettering, won the final race easily, by one minute, 59 seconds. The final series of races included light, moderate, and heavy winds to guide the boats. Stars and Stripes’ time was better on four of the sixteen upwind legs, and five of eight downward legs in which Kookaburra III, the Australian competitor, was thought to be strongest. It led after every leg of the eight-leg, 24.1 mile raced on the Indian Ocean. The final day of the race marked United States victories in the first three races by 1:41, 1:10, and After losing for the first time in 132 years in September 1983, Americans strove to regain the America’s Cup. Stars and Stripes skipper Dennis Connor was pictured on the cover of Time Magazine for his efforts. 1:46. For its climatic ending, Stars and Stripes held the biggest margin in moderate to heavy south- west winds for sixteen to twenty lenghts. For Connor, the jubulant celebration helped to make up for his loss September of 1983 to the Australian II. Determined to make the trophy’s stay Down Under a short one, Connor undertook a $20 million, two and a half year campaign to bring the cup back. Instead of sailing for the New York Yacht Club, which held the cup for those 132 years, he switched to the San Diego Yacht Club. At 44, and in his fourth cup final, Connor had an edge in experience over Kookaburra III skipper Iain Murray, 25 in his first cup finals. After 1,227 days in Australia territory, the cup sailed home to the U.S. Estatic fans in San Diego welcomed Connors back with open arms. City offi- cials planned a parade that started with an arma- da of boats outside the San Diego Yacht Club and continued with bands and a float on downtown streets. Said John Burnham, son of Sail America Foun- dation President Malin Burnham, “It means a lotto everybody to see Dennis’s fairy tale come true.” 0 by Carrie McLaren SPORTS W. SUPERBOWL XXI Giants conquer Broncos A in second half fter waiting three dec- ades for a NFL title, New York Giants fans finally had a chance to cele- brate. The Giants and quarterback Phil Simms swept through Super- bowl XXI with a 39-20 victory over the Denver Broncos. Simms performance in the third and fourth quarters brought the Gi- ants from behind 10-7 at the end of the first half. He completed 22 of 25 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns. That performance set an all time NFL playoff record for passing accuracy (88 percent) and earned him unanimous Most Valu- able Player honors. Denver quarterback John Elway did more than his share for the Bron- cos. He completed 22 of 37 passes for 304 yards, one touchdown and interception, and led Bronco rushers with 27 yards on six carries. But Elway’s mastery was not enough to maintain Denver’s lead after the first half. The Giants began their scoring streak in the third quar- ter with a fourth-and-one fake punt. The successful play led to a 23-yard touchdown pass to tight end Mark Bauero. After Allegre’s 21-yard field goal and halfback Joe Morris’s touch- down from the one yard line, New York knew they had it in the bag. “There was not one play during the game wh en I dropped back and thought something might go wrong,” said Simms. “It was like one of those days when you’re playing golf and you just know every putt’s going to roll in.” □ by Carrie McLaren.

Well, f olks, the well-known popular kid’s toy, the scooter came around again. However, this time it was a little differ- ent. Scootering was more prevalently called moon-cy- cling, named after the most popular scooter company, Moon-cycle. Scootering started in America four years after the nation was formed in 1776. It quickly became a fun way to move about, but when bicy- cles appeared in the 1840’s, the scooter became a mere child’s toy. “Scooters ride much more smoothly than skateboards because their wheels are rub- ber,” said sophomore cycler Evan Kerstein. Although most moon-cy- cling enthusiasts were junior high school students, Manda- lay Surf and Sport shop own- ers said all age groups pur- chase the cycles. The scooters ranged from $80-$300, depending on the quality of the materials used in the structure and the brand of wheels fastened to it. Most major bicycle companies pro- duced the devices. Although the sport was still in its infancy, small groups managed to hold competitions called “Stickit Competitions.” Stickit was the name of the type of handlebar that was screwed onto the skateboard, an added feature that set moon-cycles apart from regu- lar scooters. The tricks done on moon- cycles were similar to those done on a skateboard or bicy- cle, with special moves per- formed on a ramp or level ground. One of the most diffi- cult was the “foot plant” in which the rider sailed up one side of the ramp, placed one foot on the edge of the ramp, and swung the cycle up and around with the other foot. If successful, the cyclest then smoothly dropped back to the other side of the ramp. “Since you have something to hold on to, you can pick up a lot of speed,” said Kertsein. “They’re really popular in the middle schools right now, but I expect they’ll catch on with the older crowds very quick- ly” □ by Matt Cole “Mooncycles ride more smoothly than skateboards because their wheels are rubber,” said Evan Kerstein. A handlebar, called a Stickit, was an added feature that set moon-cycles apart from regular scooters. Kerstein practices maneuvering his moon-cycle along the waterfront on Clearwater Beach. An October Classic Mets take World Series in seven long games ven if the New York Mets had not won in a grueling seven games, the World Se- ries left enough heads ringing to get ev- eryone involved through the winter. The eventual most valuable player, Ray Knight, was benched in the second game and almost cost the team the series with a rainbow throw over the first baseman’s head in the sixth game. Baseballs bounced everywhere, including out of gloves and over walls. Dwight Evans, just one of twenty players who had played in the series be- fore, smacked two hours in the series for the losing Boston Red Sox. The Mets never quit, even in the sixth game when they were down to one last strike. However, team captain Keith Hernadez left the dugout to make his way to the clubhouse for a lonely beer. Manager Davey Johnson was left in the dugout hanging his head against the cold stone wall. Before the third game, when the Mets appeared all but doomed, Dennis “Oil Con” Boyd compared himself to Satchel Page and Bob Colson, two great black pitchers. By the time he snapped out of the outcome of the game, he also joined their ranks. Just when another start in game seven seemed to be going his way, the Red Sox’s hopes disappeared like the grounder between Bill Buckner’s leg that trickled thru to the outfield allowing two runs to score. The Red Sox were denied again the long await- ed World Series title. The Sox had not won a pennant since home run artist Babe Ruth was a pitcher in the 1920’s. □ by Flip Coleman Skateboarding High school game forfeits Girl’s varsity basketball OUT Skinboarding Buccs Mary Lou Retton Boy’s varsity basketball ENTEin ' AINMENT ‘ Moonlighting hits it bi W hat about the rights women have dropped their mops for . . . broken their nails for? Do you RE- ALLY think that just be- cause your voice is a little higher and your chest is a little bumpier that youre en- titled to free roadside ser- vice every time you blow a tire? —David Addison to Maddie Hayes. Every Tuesday night at 8:00, television audiences tuned in to see the offbeat and refreshing comedy drama, Moonlighting. Ac- cording to some, the fast- talking, wisecracking con- versations between Ad- dison and Hayes, leading characters, was the actual essence of the show. When creator and producer Glen Caron originally came up with the idea of Moonlight- ing, he envisioned Hayes as a successful ex-model who was conned out of every- thing she owned except Blue Moon Detective Agency, that she was using as a tax write-off. Suddenly, broke, she was forced to throw in with a fast-talking, sharp- dressing, incom- petent partner, Ad- dison, who had been running the business for her. From the begin- ning, Caron knew Cybil Shepherd would play the part of Hayes but audi - tioned over 3000 ac- tors before finding Bruce Willis, bar- tender turned actor, to play Addison. “It’s chemistry,” said Shepherd. “Either you have it or you don’t and Dave and Maddie cer- tainly have it!” The production of Moon- lighting revolved around spontaneity. Scripts were usually written and handed to the actors the same day they were shot. Caron called the process “streamline-con- sciousness” whereby the spontaneity and adrenaline generated off-screen seeped onto the film. Co-executive producer Jay Daniels stated, “We’re just about as close as you can get without being live.” For additional spon- taneity, script writers varied for each week’s episode. One of the shows fore- most rules was to keep original dia- logue intact even af- ter ABC’s censors finished. “We traffic in a certain amount of bad taste,” said Caron. “If they took that away, we wouldn’t have a show.” The combina- tion of talent brought Moon- lighting raving reviews. Con- stant media coverage was given to the show and its cast. Willis and Shep- herd, whether separately or together appeared on the cover of over five national magazines as well as televi- sion programs such as “Good Morning America.” The show even prompted starts like Whoppi Goldberg and Judd Nelson to ask for and receive guest roles. The Director’s Guild of America nominated two Moonlighting episodes, one for best comedy and one for best drama. Will MacKen- zie, one of the show’s direc- tors, won the Guild’s award for best direction of a prime- time drama. Shepherd and Willis won the People’s Choice Award as favorite performers in a new televi- sion series. From the obscure depths of late night television, Moonlighting had risen to become one of ABC’s highest ranked show — among both the fans and the critics. □ by Cassie Flory year T1 daily lier c cruis resoi seco Disn to tf FI the i ad vc the ] you whe ' addt I into S; Kinc ed t tain Birtl ney C tain Mid A fore the i ious try.

The trend began in 1981 when the Tampa Mission Bell Theater opened and continued with movie houses de- bating in nearly every conceivable city in the Tampa Bay area. During the summer of 1986, however, these institutions focused their attention on the Clearwater area. United Artists (UA) opened two new movie theaters: Movies at Clear- water with 8 screens and Movies at Largo with 9 screens. Plitt Theaters expanded and remodeled their loca- tion at Sunshine Mall. They built a 5- screen, Main Street, situated north of Countryside Mall on U.S. 19 too. AMC also jumped on the band- wagon. In addition to the brand New Tri-City 8, AMC added another the- ater to their quadroplex next to Clearwater Mall. Amanda Williams, a manager at the Clearwater AMC theater, ex- plained that it expanded because that particular location was the bu- siest one in the whole AMC south- east division. Before the arrival of competing companies, AMC had been the single biggest film institu- tion in Clearwater. The newly-established movie houses planned several activities to encourage moviegoers to go to their theater. Movies at Largo which opened on June 27, 1986, did pro- motional campaigns in conjunction with Pinellas County blood mobiles. People who donated at least a pint of blood received a free pass and dis- counts to the theater. UA Largo em- ployees dressed up in costumes for customers to judge during Hallow- een.

To cele- brate the rampant growth of the Magic Kingdom and later-established EP- COT center, Walt Disney World held a yearlong birthday celebration. The highly publicized birthday party included a daily prize give away of a 1987 Chevrolet Cava- lier or S-10 Pickup, and a Premier Cruise Lines’ cruise for two to the Bahamas. In addition, the resort gave away smaller prizes “every fifteen seconds” such as Disney Film Video Cassettes, Disney Channel subscriptions, and annual passes to the Magic Kingdom. Florida residents benefitted from special values the resort offered for admission tickets. Taking advantage of the offer, senior Mark Poutre visited the Magic Kingdom with several friends. “When you purchase admission tickets, you find out whether you’ve won or not,” Poutre explained. He added with a hint of sarcasm, “We wanted to run into some of the characters but ... no such luck.” Special song and dance programs in the Magic Kingdom added to the celebration. Disney select- ed top performers from around the world to enter- tain the crowds. The “Fifteen Years of Magic” Birthday parades featuring Mickey and other Dis- ney characters were also held daily. Over in EPCOT center, Disney released “Cap- tain EO”, a new 3-D musical ‘sci-fi’ film starring Michael Jackson. A Mickey Mouse hot-air balloon dubbed “Ear- fore One” served to carry the celebration across the country. The 100-foot tall likeness visited var- ious metropolitan areas throughout the coun- try. □ by Carrie McLaren 00D0Qa0Q100D aD O0Oc 0n.3oiJt 0OOOOCaO OO L( r Everywhere ££5|fl£g30£0oa000QJQ0QD0ooo a oouraooauaaoDc; DW3o ticket for that movie. On the other hand, the fledging AMC theater (since July 1986) at Tri City Plaza located south on U.S. 19 held VIP nights for local businesses and their employees. The near one thousand people who went to tri City 8 on their opening night increased with the effectiveness of these pro- motional ideas. After the addition of the fifth Clearwater AMC theater, contests promoted both the theater and the movies. In some, customers just reg- istered to win various prizes from the theater or from different radio sta- tions who worked with the theater chain for publicity. Others were con- tests of movie trivia about films such as Golden Child , Brighton Beach Memoirs and The Mosquito Coast. When asked about the effects of new competition, the Clearwater AMC related that the UA’s and Plitt’s usually did not take away a substan- tial amount of profits. However, the newer movie houses found that the competition seriously cut down on the availability of popu- lar movies to show. “I can’t see how any of the the- aters can really be gaining large profits,” said junior Kara Weppler. “The population of mo- viegoers are split every weekend between at least five theaters each with a minimum of five actu- al screens.” □ by Susana Kugeares and Cassie Flory whMfr . .

Ct 7whM nOT NEWS IDS fATAL V WS PLA vES CouUTkY £ fter already claiming A the lives of more than 15,000 people in the United States, AIDS continued to spread uncured. The virus that caused AIDS — Acquired Im- mune Deficiency Syndrome — was spread through intimate con- tact with a carrier’s body fluids, such as blood or semen. Although the virus had been detected in saliva, there was no evidence t hat it was transmitted by kissing. The virus attacked the immune sys- tem, rendering it unable to fight sickness and disease. When the AIDS virus first be- gan to appear in 1981, it was thought to predominantly afflict premiscuous homosexual men and hypodermic needle drug us- ers. Recent developments showed that, although gay men and drug users were still at the most risk of contracting the virus, sexually active heterosexuals were not immune. Anyone actively carrying the AIDS virus could pass it to a het- erosexual through intercourse. Since AIDS could remain dor- mant within the body for more than five years, a person may have carried the virus without de- veloping any symptoms while still being capable of transmitting it. A heterosexual could also con- tract the virus through drug abuse or an infected blood trans- fusion. The Federal Center for Dis- ease Control (CDC) in Atlanta re- ported that as of December 2, 1986, there had been 1,094 het- erosexual cases of AIDS in the United States. The CDC predict- ed that the heterosexual AIDS cases will comprise from four to nearly ten percent of all AIDS cases by 1991. □ by Carrie McLaren Lady — Liberty A fter a two year make- over, she was finally ready. For one magic moment on July 4, 1986, America stood back and paused to reflect on the patriotic pride reminiscent in the Statue of Liberty. To celebrate the 100th anniver- sary of the Statue of Liberty, America put on the grandest fourth of July bash ever. Thirty- eight naval vessels and twenty- two tallships sailed into New York harbor, escorted by a 40,000 boat flotilla. The sky later exploded in a 28-minute fireworks display. The bands, fireworks, and made-for- primetime ceremonies marked completion of a $31 million face- lift. Businesses found the “celebra- tion” an opportunity to make mon- ey. The private Statue of Liberty- Ellis Island Foundation led by Lee Iacocca let corporate sponsors use the foundation’s logo in ads that helped raise $252 million. Ninety firms used the logo on 800 products ranging from a 65- cent liberty pencil to a $10,260 special edition Harley Davidson motorcycle. ABC television paid $10 million for the exclusive broadcast rights for “Liberty Weekend Coverage.” “The statue is one of the few physical symbols of America we have,” said senior Jennifer Traum. “We need to take care of it. It means a lot of things to a lot of people.” □ by Carrie McLaren Belts: KBra mx kmm® mm M w A s of January 1, 1987, state law re- quired all automobile passengers rid- ing in the front seat to wear a safety belt. Those caught driving without wearing a belt faced a $22 fine. The law evolved due to the high mortality rate of passengers involved in auto- mobile accidents. According to a pamphlet pub- lished by ERAM (Engineering Resource for Ad- vanced Mobility), safety belts decreased the possi- bility of an injury received by approximately 50 percent and the number of fatalities by 60 to 70 percent. The Florida Driver’s Handbook main- tained that safety belts prevented a driver from being thrown from his vehicle, against parts of his vehicle, or against others in the vehicle while keep- ing him in control behind the wheel. The handbook further compared driving at the speed of 30mph and crashing to jumping off a three-story building head first. The ERAM pam-- phlet pointed out that while the car started to crush and slow down on impact, a passenger con- tinued to move at the speed the car was originally traveling. A car could stop within 1 10 of a sec- ond, but the person would still have been moving forward. 1 50 of a second after the car stopped, an unbelted person would slam into the dashboard or windshield. The only way a police officer was able to issue a safety belt violation was if the driver was pulled over for another charge. School Resource Officer Steve Brooks said, “I think the law will be re- viewed in the future. The courts might decide to stop the motorist if the officer can plainly see that . the motorist is not wearing his or her safety belt. Student reactions to the new law varied. How- ever, with more and more insurance companies claiming liabilities only for passengers wearing! safety belts, many teenage drivers made it a habit to buckle up. Said junior Todd Curtis, “I think everyone should wear seat belts. They don’t take long to put on and one day they may save your life.” □ by Carrie McLaren I their Ir inco borr year 8 % que: cial gres ceiv ove four All: fori fed T lege and l C u.s moi kno C the the lige spa sibli 1 adv kee tivil 1 son Olh mili Nal (No al I mei F of t pro fum 188 □ Intermission Government restricts loans C ollege-bound students planning to get a gov- ernment loan to help pay tuition costs found the government less willing to part with 1 their funds. In past years, students with family incomes of $30,000 or less usually borrowed up to $2500 for their first year of college through government 8% garanteed loan program with no questions asked about proof of finan- cial aid. A new law passed by Con- gress, making it more difficult to re- ceive loans resulted in turning away over 400,000 students. Others found loans in a much reduced size. All students had to prove their need for financial aid before receiving any federal support. The average bill at a private col- lege was a heart-stopping $10,199 and the average bill at a public col- lege was $5,604 for one year of tu- ition, according to the College Board. The Secretary of Education, Wil- liam Bennett felt federally subsidized student loans encouraged colleges to raise tuition beyond the needed op- erating expenses of the college. Ben- nett wanted to eliminate federal sub- sidies that releived students of loan payments while students were in col- lege. But Congress acted very reluc- tantly toward approval of Bennett’s idea. To test the concept of eliminating federal subsidies, President Ronald Reagan signed into law a new pro- gram. This program tailored the stu- dents’ repayment schedules to their income after graduation. On the other hand, if scholarships and grants covered expenses be- yond tuition and required course ma- terials, they were taxed as income. This new tax law hurt needy gradu- ate students and needy undergrad- uates who depended entirely upon financial aid. Also, fewer tax breaks were given to people who donated money to a college. As a result, the incentive to make charitable contributions was lessened. With the reduced endow- ments, colleges were forced to put even more financial demand on stu- dents and their parents. Despite these setbacks, however, more fed- eral aid was finally authorized for those who needed it — although it was tougher to prove the need. □ by Guy Nieman It’s not fair that incoming college stu- dents have to pay a higher price than previous years. They should just keep to amount of grants given the same. Trevor Zabel, 11 Excess government grants may be causing colleges to raise their tuition costs beyond necessary operating costs. If the number of grants are reduced, it might make colleges less likely to continually raise their prices. Becca Kert, 11 I’m hoping the grants won’t be too scarce for me to get one. They make it possible for a lot of people to fi- nance a college education. S cott Fowler, 12 U.S. funds contras T he Reagan administration found it- self under deep scrutiny when news of its involvement in an arms deal with Iran became public. In late November, information leaked out that the U.S. was selling U.S.-made arms to the Iranians, then using the money raised to support Nicaraguan rebel groups known as Contras. Congress formed several committees, including the Senate Intelligence Committee, to investigate 1 the matter. After three weeks of hearings, the Senate Intel- ligence Committee released a 65-page single- spaced report which constructed, as much as pos- sible, the arms deal. The report showed that some of Reagan’s top advisors deliberately misled one another while keeping the President in the dark about their ac- I tivities. The Senate report was incomplete, however, as some of the key players — Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North, the deputy director for the political military affairs on the National Security Council, National Security Advisor John Poindexter (North’s boss), and retired Air Force Major Gener- al Richard Secord exercised their Fifth Amend- ment rights and refused to testify. Reagan’s administration welcomed the release of the document because the Senators found no proof that Reagan knew of the illegal diversion of funds from the Iran arms sales to the Contras. However, the report did question Reagan’s de- fense that the weapons deals were meant to im- prove ties with Iran and not as a bargaining tool in the release of the hostages held by the pro-Iranian Islamic Jihad. The Senate Committee found that the profits of the arms-sales were deposited into Swiss bank accounts controlled by Secord. The money was then transferred to accounts in the Cayman Is- lands and Panama controlled by Contra leader Adolfo Calero. Although the exact amount could not be determined, a justice Department investi- gation disclosed that the figure was probably up to $30 million. How the people involved in the Iran-Contra scandal managed the money flow remained a mys- tery. The Senate report found evidence that the Israelis, acting as middlemen, may have taken $2 million from arms-sales profits for their own pur- poses. But to reconstruct the money trail, the var- ious congressional committees had to unravel the motives of the President’s advisors — a deed they found insurmountable. Although the majority of high school students remained apathetic to the situation, the topic came up in a number of social studies classrooms. Said Kurt Bassuener, “I think the issue has been overblown. We should be more like the Europeans and find out who perpetrated it and then go on.” □ by Cynthia Henry .

And no one dared to make a request for the latest Echo and Bun- nymen song on the Top Five at Nine. When New Edition’s latest single aired against the Communards’ on the Friday Fights, the latter lost hands down, receiving only three votes. However, despite rejections from commercial radio, the new mu- sic performed by underground bands would continue to thrive in the eyes (and ears) of its fans. Although its popularity differed greatly in various regions of the country, new music generally pros- pered in metropolitan areas. In New York, the dynamic Mill- waukee folk-punk trio, the Violent Femmes headlined a sold-out con- cert at Carnegie Hall where fired-up teenagers stormed the stage, danc- ing and singing along with the band in a celebratory frenzy. Athens, Geor- gia, gave birth to R.E.M., a bar band that broke into the Top Thirty with its fourth IRS album, Lifes Rich Pag- eant. From Boston, the Long Ryders picked up badly needed rent money and valuable network exposure when they were featured on a televi- sion ad-campaign for Miller Lite beer. New music fans living in Clear- water were fortunate enough to have the nightlife opportunities provided by nearby Tampa. Both the USF Sundome and Tampa Theater held concerts by such bands as Love and Rockets, the Psychedelic Furs, and New Order. The newly established No Clubs Productions hosted such concerts in addition to bi-monthly live punk rock shows at the Cuban Club and Tampa Bay Armory. Faces teen nightclub held a new music night every week and drew huge crowds during the summer Thursdays onto its combination steambath-dancefloor. “It’s the only place I can go and hear good music,” said senior Nick Arakis. A vast underground network of specialty record shops across the country provided new music fans with albums and other paraphernalia nearly impossible to find at most mu- sic stores. Locally, connoisseurs of alternative music made trips to Re- cord Baf Tape Outlet in Dunedin and Vinyl Fever in Tampa for imported, locally-produced, and hard-to-find items. Progressive areas often had radio stations devoted entirely to new mu- sic. Although the Bay area could boast no such outlets, it did serve as home for two non-commercial sta- tions, WMNF and WUSF, that spon- sored new music programs at par- ticular times during the week. WUSF, operated from the campus of the Unviersity of South Florida, played songs from college Top Forty playlists and caller requests, as did WMNF. “New music doesn’t need com- mercial radio to survive,” said sopho- more Tangi Hammons. “(Commer- cials stations) overplay everything anyway.” The small but dedicated sect of new music fans gave underground bands the support they needed. Be- cause of the vast network of inde- pendent record companies, specialty record shops, and maverick radio stations, a guerrilla band could sur- vive quite nicely making its own sweet music in its own sweet time. □ by Carrie McLaren I revi ade L groi day Stai core h Spr set Ship qua like P con mer Dok wer dec; Mor reisj the This tion Mor Rutl FAVOK tlTE TYPE OF MUSIC i Pop gj POCK A, T (D fcJEW CHRtST AX Roc 3 favor it group or . artist e Bon Phil New Amy Jovi Collins Order Grant This information was gained from a poll of 100 students. Recording 190 □ Intermission MUS I C Classic rock makes a comeback aking up to a radio alarm, young adults were often plagued with deja-vu. While new bands contin- ued to come and go year after year, the airwaves seemed preoccupied with reviving the music of the past dec- ade. Unexpected comebacks from two groups whose best (and best-selling days seemed far behind), Heart and Starship brought forth the biggest re- cords of their careers. In time for Christmas, Bruce Springstein released a five-record set with forty live-in-concert tracks. Shipped to record stores in platinum quantities, the album collections sold like hotcakes. Perhaps the most improbable comeback occurred when three members of the Monkees (Mickey Dolenz, Peter Tork, and Davy Jones) were persuaded to regroup and, two decades after its first appearance, Monkeemania struck again. All six reissued Monkees’ albums, as well as the new single, “That Was Then, This Is Now” landed substantial posi- tion on the Billboard charts. The Monkees’ U.S. tour brought them to Ruth Eckerd Hall where they per- formed sold-out shows to fans of all ages. “You stand there onstage,” said Monkee Davy Jones, “and you watch the faces. And you see a lady who’s thirty-five, with her child who’s ten.” Not only were the songs of the 1970’s revived by the original re- cording artists, but several current bands recorded new versions of the classics. Covers of rock evergreens like, “Venus,” “Jumping Jack Flash,” “Spirit in the Sky,” and “Walk This Way” all found their way onto the charts and airwaves. Ironi- cally, a reissue of the Beatles’ “Twist and Shout” substantially outsold Paul McCartney’s latest song, “Press.” “Everybody liked, ‘Twist and Shout’ after they saw it in a movie,” said junior P aul McLaren. “If a song is really good, all it takes is a chance to be heard again.” In an attempt to target the twenty- five and older set, album-oriented rock (AOR) radio stations increasing- ly switched over to the “classic rock” format, a programming style that consisted primarily of rock hits from the previous two decades. In the Seminole-based station, WZNE turned into Classic Rock 97.9, play- ing songs by musical greats like the Rolling Stones, the Doors, and the Beatles. For new bands trying to break the charts, the resurgence into rock’s past created problems. With teen- agers turning more and more to clas- sic rock heroes, infant artists had lit- tle opportunity to win over their own generation. But was it a lack of new talent or the fault of radio for the nostalgia craze? Said senior John St. Clair, “People listen to the old music because it’s good — the artists, the songs, the musicians are universal. But there’s also a lot of great current music out there that no one gets to hear be- cause the radio stations are preoccu- pied with reliving the past.” If what St. Clair estimates is cor- rect, the new generation of teen- agers will have no artists to look back upon and remember as part of their own decade. But, who knows? Per- haps the adolescents twenty years later will turn on their radios and rev- el in tunes by the Smithereens and the Talking Heads. □ by Carrie McLaren 6 People listen to the old music be- cause iVs good— John St.Clair 99 industry invaded by C D (a )L A w . . ter s P en ding l $2000 on the A latest in psyche- (J delia audio equipment and a record collec- tion of startling diversity, the music connois- seur may have thought he had it all . . . that is, until compact discs hit big in the industry. Although CD’s arrived in this country nearly four years ear- lier, record stores, radio sta- tions, and consumers were just beginning to realize the impact of digital audio. Compact discs evolved from a complex process of converting audio waveforms to discrete numerical values and then undergoing an in- verse process called digital-to- analog conversion. The re- cording that resulted lacked the noise, distortion, tape f dropouts, and a host of other 5 aberations associated with analog recording and play- back equipment. As CD’s became increasing- ly popular with the public, re- cord companies responded by continuously adding new titles to their digital libraries. The increased diversity allowed for growing compact disc se- lections in music stores as well as specialty shops. Selections unavailable on the retail mar- ket could be sent away for through company catalogs. Although slowly decreas- ing, prices for complete CD systems were often a financial strain. CD players ranged anywhere from $50 for a por- table device on up to $600 for a fine car stereo. The discs themselves averaged $16 each, twice the price of the normal Lp. “The players are cheaper now than when I bought mine,” said Tim Owen. “But the sound is worth almost any price.” □ by Carrie McLaren EM Rap Comebacks Reggae Beastie Boys CD’s Janet Jackson OUT Cassettes MTV Breakdancing David Lee Roth Prince Michael Jackson G Neim r Between schoolwork and part-time jobs, students aways were over-run with people.

EADDY Upperclassmen enjoy more freedom to be first to buy parking lot stick- ers and their choice of school lockers. The activities consisted mainly of sponsoring various so- cial functions such as dances that were held after the football games and the Cruise ’87. The school projects included events that seniors participated in like t- shirt sales, Homecoming week, Senior week, and the senior breakfast. Seniors were especial- ly active during Homecoming week with hall decorations, the class float, and the Homecoming Queen which was won by senior class president, Madre Barber. The senior class sponsored a toga dance which was held after Gibbs. Everyone who attended T he bell rings. It’s time for lunch. Mobs of students clutter the hallways head- ing toward the cafeteria.

Here, they have enough room to relax and discuss the upcoming events list- ed on the Senior Activities Board. “What privileges? What ac- tivities?” was the primary an- swer to the question, “What do you think about this year’s senior privileges and activities?” What they didn’t realize was that seniors have acquired more privileges than they have lost. When seniors were caught in the hallways, they too were pe- nalized. Many teachers were no longer more lenient to seniors than to other students. The number of credits re- quired to graduate was raised from 24 to 25 although future graduating classes will need 26 credits.

Although the initial goodbye, especially at graduation, was dif- ficult, students managed to keep in touch with friends who gradu- ated and moved away. “We take turns calling each other whenever she gets a chance to come home from Talla- hassee,” said Peter Sloan about his friend Suzanne Gross who went to Florida State University. “It’s so hard to get used to it in the beginning,” said Martha Gal- loway, whose friend Mark Walk- up went to University of South Carolina.” But we write and visit each other and somehow the fact that I know we’ll never lose touch makes it easier to handle.” “My phone bill has skyrocket- ed since she left, but talking to her and writing as often as we do helps me miss her just a little bit less,” commented Lee Ann Brown about how she kept up her friendship with Robin Castle, who went to Olivet Nazarene College in Illinois. “We’ve managed to stay very close,” said Elizabeth McArthur, about her friend Alison Lea who went to Sweet Briar College. “It really had me realize how having someone around or near con- stantly makes it very easy to take them for granted. Then all of a sudden, they’re gone. But, we keep in close touch by sending each other cassette recordings and video tapes.” Although saying goodbye was difficult, keeping in touch helped ease the pain. □ by Elizabeth Voulieris LETTERS A student at U.S.C., Mark Walkup and Martha Galloway became friends when he was editor of Clearlight last year.

The weatherman predicted cold and freezing all period T he weatherman may have said it was 92 degrees out- side but a walk inside a se- lected few classrooms was a trip to Antarctica. On the other hand, a sweater-clad student in the middle of winter often found him- self in a third period steambath. So, was Mother Nature turning schizophrenic or did Jack Frost have a sick sense of humor? No and no again. The answer lay somewhere within technological advances that allowed for a climate con- trolled indoor environment. In simple terms, the air condi- tioner didn’t work. “It’s either too hot in the win- ter or too cold in the summer,” said senior Paul Maseman. “The temperature changes can be frightening.” A coordinating system regulat- ed the temperatures of the var- ious rooms and turned them on and off in timed intervals. While the air conditioner ran in certain rooms, it paused in others. If a system was turned on or off man- ually, it tended to offset the oth- ers. Therefore, the administra- tion informed the teachers to avoid adjusting the temperatures in their rooms. Oftentimes, this resulted in a room temperature either one extreme or the other. “All the classes in E and F wing are just too cold,” said Christine Petty. “You can’t get any work done because you’re shivering so much.” To guard against frostbite or heat stroke, wise students learned to dress in layers. When first period felt like the Yukon, they buttoned up their parkas. If second period steamed, they stripped down to t-shirts (with sleeves, of course). Already well-acquainted with the temperatures of his various classes, Chris Murphy knew what to expect before entering them and learned how to cope. “If you’re in the pods, you freeze to death, and C-wing is hot.

He tried to stay awake as long as possible, but he had worked until midnight the night before. First he wrote a note to his girlfriend, he looked around the room, and then tried concen- trating on the teacher. But, his attempts to stay awake did not work. He just dozed off. Many students found them- selves falling asleep in a class for a variety of reasons. Some stu- dents were bored, some watched T.V. too late, and some didn’t get enough sleep. Many seniors found themselves working until late hours, going home to find three hours of homework left to do. Bill Glass stated, “Some teach- ers are so boring, that I can’t help but fall asleep during class. I usu- ally try anything possible to stay awake, but nothing works.” Each person had a different way of staying awake. Some wrote notes to their friends, while others just kept moving around. A few relied on over the counter caffeine pills such as Vivarin or No-Doz. Jamie Hatchett simply said “I don’t try to stay awake. If I’m tired, I just fall asleep.” “Try not to focus your atten- tion on one thing. I look around the room at different things, and try anything to keep my eyes open,” said Laura Larson. Sue Metallo said, “Moving, such as tapping my fingers, usu- ally helps.” It was definitely a challenge to hide from the teacher. Putting up their books and hiding behind the person in front of them usually didn’ t work. Jimmy Harrison had his own idea. “You hold up your pen and act like you’re writing. Wear sunglasses and put your hat over your forehead” While some seniors chose to fall asleep during their classes, others thought it was more im- portant to listen to the teacher instead of making up for lost rest.

She looks at the clock and starts to worry, really worry. It’s two hours past her curfew. She rushes home, slowly turning into the driveway with the headlights off, and parks. She opens the door very gently and tiptoes into the bed- room. After closing the door with- out a sound, she breathes a sigh of relief, thinking that she made it — she’s safe. Her heart stops as the door opens and out of the darkness an angry voice asks, “Where have you been?” After three years of practice, seniors were called the “Experts of excuses;” When asked, “Where have you been?”, they could easily rely on their ability to conjure up a believable excuse. Here are a few excuses that se- niors told to get out of a tight spot: “I went to a party, and the guy’s parents took everyone’s keys so no one would drive drunk. They left for half an hour, so I couldn’t get home on time.” — John Beauchamp “I tried to call to tell you I would be late, but the line was busy.” — Jamie Hatchett “The bridge was up.” — Clinton Farnell “When arriving upon the ho- mefront premises tardy, I tend to use parental psychology. A lengthy story on how I had been arrested previously that evening and I had to make-up for lost time, will usually suffice.” — Kim Kurland “I ran over the cat and had to go to its funeral.” — Staci Lewison “We changed to Daylight Sav- ings Time and I forgot to reset my watch.” — Devonna Fleming “I got behind a garbage truck and had to stop at every house on the way.” — Elizabeth McArthur “She told me to take her work- sheet, I swear it!” — Susan Coleman □ by Sheri Geoghegan Seniors □ 215 J.

Her thoughts raced frantically as each moment passed until finally it was her turn. Slowly but surely, she stepped towards the edge of the stage, clenching her palms as the sweat beads began to form. Her somewhat frightened smirk turned upward to produce a shaky smile. These were the things many experienced their first time mod- eling. Lori Brown, who modeled for Gayfers for two years said, “I was pretty scared the first time I modeled. But once I got out there it was not as scary and things just came naturally.” Along with the commitment of modeling, models also had to face their school work. “Some people find it difficult to handle both their school work and modeling; I manage it by fol- lowing a schedule with all of my activities on it,” said Cheryl Bar- cenas who had modeled for both Burdines and Gayfers. While some took classes con- tinually, others preferred not to. Missy Hodges, first runner-up in the essay portion of the Miss Na- tional Teenager competition said, “After three months of classes at John Casablanca’s, I quit be- cause they hadn’t taught me any- thing I didn’t already know.” Not all models are as success- ful as others. Some continually strive to be the best, while others seem to be at the top effortlessly. Lori Brown said, “I found two sides to modeling. One being a fun activity filled with friends and exciting new things. The other a serious activity requiring hard work and dedication.” Whatever it appears, model- ing is an experience worth all the time and effort put into it. □ by Jennifer Nelis Michelle Jones Tammie Jones Tom Jones Tripp Jones Keri Jupin Michele Kachinski Sue Kachinski Jason Kalkhof Judy Kane Jennifer Kaplan Brad Kays Thomas Keeble Lori Kellard Kandi Kelly Niki Kelly Seniors □ 217 Tell Us Something About Yourself . . . College applications take up many hours A t the top of the page were the type written words: “Tell us something about yourself” The rest of the page was blank. As the soon-to-be-college freshman tried to turn thoughts into words the frustration grew. Filling out applications had been a senior year tradition for as long as colleges have been accepting students, but that didn’t make it any easier. The generic questions of Name? Address? and High School? etc. took most people half an hour to answer. The real time-consuming part came with writing the essay. “They leave it so open that you don’t k now what they want, so you just write something and hope you get lucky,” said Tammy Giroux, who applied to Florida State University, University of Florida, and Stetson University. Generally, the applications for private schools were more in depth than those for public uni- versities. “The applications for state schools are pretty straight for- ward,” said Joe Safirstein, who was accepted to the University of Florida in Gainesville. Some people decided what college they would attend by what was asked on the applica- tion. “I applied to colleges whose applications didn’t have any es- says on them,” said Karem Esin. Even though most seniors did not look forward to work in their last year of high school, one thing they had to do to get into a good college was learn the art of sounding intelligent on paper. □ bp Valerie Wickersham SINGING PRAISES TOO MUCH INFORMATION Joe Safirstein, invited to USF as this Each year, colleges send representatives school’s star science student, asks Mr. with information.

The dam- pened hair, dripping pant legs, and squeaking soles were dead giveaways, for, when it rained, the school seemed to sink. During heavy downpours, rainwater filled the grassy areas between halls. In areas where the pavement was particularly low, rainwater and mud ran onto the walkways. The central entrance into E and F wing typically caused problems for those who cared about the future of their shoes. While feet bearing sneak- ers waded through the water un- harmed, those with sandels, pen- ny loafers, or high heels hesitat- ed. “Is it REALLY worth it ruining a pair of leather Gucci’s just to get to fifth period?” questioned Tiffiny Lasely. “I think not. I’d rather spend the whole day at lunch!” Alternate routes were possi- ble, but seldom practical. Out-of- the-way dry routes led to con- gested areas and resulted in tar- dies. Of course, the supposed dry halls were often subjects to rain from above. As the wind blew buckets of rain into the hallways, it forced students to walk as close as possible to the inner wall. With everyone shifting to such a small portion of the hallway, changing classes grew increasingly diffi- cult. Areas where the roof leaked caused more problems. In places where it leaked in classrooms, teachers placed garbage cans to catch the water. Said Rod Harlan, “You can’t concentrate on your work with the sound of water dripping in the classroom.” On the other hand, rainy weather brought relief for some people under the hot, scorching sun. “Personally, I love it when it rains,” said Brooke Becker. “I’ll do anything to get out of P.E.”! □ by Carrie McLaren DODGING THE RAIN It was usually very difficult to avoid the rain drops coming into the hallways.

To some they seemed an invita- tion to doodle, to others they made good pillows, but all se- niors spent a great amount of time in these structures called desks. Writing on desks usually re- sulted in automatic detention and sometimes the duty of sanding all the wooden desks in the class- room. ‘‘When a desk becomes too abused, it causes a problem for students, especially when taking scan-tron tests. The writing usu- ally doesn’t bother me until the desks becomes too bad, and then I pick the first offender to clean the desks,” said Mr. Davis. But why did seniors feel the need to write on desks? “I like to leave my mark, after all, isn’t that what being a senior is all about,” said Sue Ellen Ro- senblum. “Someone asks a question (written on a desk) and I answer it,” said Gloria Moreira. Some desks did not have book racks underneath them which forced seniors to set their books and feet on the floor. “I don’t like the desks without a place to put your feet,” stated Dawn Waldorf. Because of the limited amount of space on some desks, folders, books, and tests often fell off. Even though desks were un- comfortable and many seniors could not resist writing or sleep- ing on them, they still played an important role in the life of a stu- dent. □ by Guy Niemann Seniors □ 223 JANET COFFEE Murray — Petty Jimmy Murray Jodi Myer Joel Namath Tracey Neil Leslie Nelson Teresa Nelson Karla Newdick Jonna Nicely Jim Nordberg Dennis O’Conner Sean O’Flannery Chihiro Oka Michelle Olds Tammy Orourke Russ Orzel Down and Out Students discover that staying home sick is no vacation W ouldn’t it be great to be able to stay home from school for a few days? It would mean no teachers giving boring lectures in their monotone voices, no school food, and best of all no homework. But the only way that could happen was if you were sick. Student often sat in class and prayed for some kind god to give them an illness that would last long enough for them to miss the essay test, the Trig test, and the Biology test. But when the gods did bestow on them their wish, the ungrate- ful recipient often prayed to have the wish taken back. Sure sickness meant no school for a few days. But, it also meant spending all day in bed with a box of tissues at arm’s length and an overflowing trash can next to the bed. Game shows and soap operas posed a big thrill, but the cough- ing, aching, stuffy head, and fe- ver prevented any enjoyment. And good old mom. If she worked, she made a huge bowl of mush, which she called break- fast, and left it on the night table. She called at every opportunity she got. She called at every op- portunity. She came home and fixed a huge bowl of chicken soup and removed the untouch- ed bowl from breakfast. If she didn’t work , she was there to hover in the room armed with thermometers, books, and bowls of “food” that made the school food look delicious in com- parison. But at least there was no homework. No Biology test to study for, no Trig homework to worry about. But when the gods took the gift of illness back, there were six tests (including the Biology) and a pile of homework to worry about.

CCC transfer Dana Jacobson en- joys lunch with David Thomas. eniors Get a Fresh Start Senior transfers adjust to new surroundings ■ D id you ever think about how hard it would be to transfer to a new school? Most of the new students felt it was more difficult to adjust to a new school your senior year than it would be in an earlier year. They found it hard to leave their old friends, who they had been going to school with for three or more years. “I just came down from New York two months ago. I was dragged down here against my will,” complained Anthea Allen. “Being uprooted in your last year is upsetting. After being in a town for seven years, you look forward to graduating with your original class.” Another new senior, Christie Litton, said, “If you transfer to another school its best to do so while you are young. That way you would have a better chance of meeting new people, and more time to get to know them well enough to become close to them.” Adjusting was made difficult because different schools had dif- ferent rules, courses, grade point average requirements, and graduation credit requirements. Said Mike Williams, “My old school, Marietta High, Ohio, was mellower. We had a smoking area. We could wear shirts with cut off sleeves and shorts. I couldn’t believe it when I was told we aren’t allowed to wear those here. I mean, seriously, this is Florida!” Ano ther type of transfer stu- dents were the exchange stu- dents from West Germany. The exchanges lived with Clearwater students and their families for a full school year. “I came here for the opportu- nity to study in the U.S. and learn English,” said Lothor Weller. “I find it complicated for me to ad- just because I only know a little bit of the language.” Michael Albanius, a transfer who attended Staedisches Gym- nasium Leichlingen in Germany, enjoyed the extracurricular ac- tivities here. “I like the clubs and sports after school. Since we don’t have them at home, I never had an opportunity of playing on a school team before,” said Al- banius. The new seniors considered transferring difficult, but after a few months here they began to fit in and enjoy their senior year. Jodi Meyer was one new stu- dent with a different outlook on transferring during the senior year. “After transferring you have more friends, some from both schools. It’s not bad, it’s a challenge,” said Meyer. □ Karin Case Seniors □ 227 Safirstein — Steinbarger Joe Safirstein Cassandra Salter Adam Sancic Craig Sarvis Dobie Scharnagle Chance Schlesman Sean Schlesman Bobby Schlogel Caroline Schmitz Laura Schonbrun Cammy Sch reader Rhonda Seavey Lisa Shaw Daniel Shea Susan Sheremeta or Whom the Alarm Tolls out of bed at early hours T hrough the darkness of the dawn, an arm reaches out to terminate the annoying sound known so familiarly as the ringing of the alarm clock. This is the first sound most students woke up to. Students, whether they liked it or not, had to get up, some way or another, and face the seeming- ly neverending days of school. “My alarm clock goes off at six o’clock a.m. but I usually don’t get up until 6:09 a.m. because that’s how long my snooze button lasts. When I do get up, I take a shower, get dressed, and put on make up,” said Julie Dillard, who had to leave early to sell Little Debbies before school. Some people assumed that girls spent more time “primping” than guys do, but that proved un- true as Bob Word shared his morning routine. “My alarm goes off at 5:45 a.m. but, I don’t ever get up then. I keep hitting the snooze button until 6:00 a.m. comes around, and then I get up.” From there, He stumbled into and out of the shower, turned on the radio, stretched, got dressed, ate break- fast, and at 7:00 a.m., he left for school. But, while these people were still snug in their beds, there were some students who got up as ear- ly as 4:30 a.m. They were the swimmers and divers. Their dedi- cation to their sport made them wake up two hours earlier than everyone else to practice. “The worse part about swim- ming early in the morning, is hav- ing to get ready in the bathroom. It is so hot and yucky and it makes me sweat,” said Julie Ken- ton, a swimmer. Said another swimmer, Jimmy Murray, “Some mornings I don’t mind getting up early, but some- times I really hate it. But, it’s all worth it in the end.” Most students agreed that waking up early in the morning didn’t make them very happy but, a positive attitude about so- cial life, school, and jobs helped a lot. □ by Susan Wernsing GE The I for s Schi app, 228 □ Seniors Steisslinger — Viano Jay Steisslinger Sean Stoffel John Stone Mark St. Pierre Lisa Streetman Deb Sucrue Steve Swann Heather Tatro Laura Taylor Margaret Taylor John Tender Wendy Tester Sherrie Teyner David Thomas Russ Toole Jeff Torello Vernalisa Torres Phu Tran Jenni Traum Shawn Truman Peter Tsambiras Ken Tucker Linda Tzekas Qibaret Tzekas Charlotte Ulrich Kerstin Upmeyer Heather Urban Debra VanHook Steven Vantilburg Richard Viano 230 □ Seniors Different Options Not everyone thought college was the best choice O nce the senior year rolled around, seniors contem- plated their plans for after graduation. Although a wide va- riety of options involving college were available, many seniors found other plans to satisfy their needs and desires. The main reason behind these plans involved money. For this reason, many students turned to other available options ranging from employment to marriage. Chris Mastridge, a senior en- tering the Navy upon graduation explained, “College expenses are just too high for me and my family to handle.” “I am getting a better paying job with my brother’s auto repair business,” Senior Julie Gould ex- plained,” and then I’m getting married in the fall of 1987.” Others decided to attend tech- nical institutes because of the many advantages. “I would rather go to F.V.T.I. (Pinellas Vocational Technical Institute) to become an architect because you actually get a head start with working in your field,” said Athena Mihaelaras. Although some seniors had definite plans, others only had a vague idea in mind. “I’m debating different oppor- tunities in the work force, but I don’t have a final decision yet,” said Keri Jupin. A good number of seniors de- cided to meet college halfway by attending a junior college. “College expenses are too high and I only need to go to S.P.J.C. (St. Petersburg Junior College) to become a secretary,” said Kathy Ehrenzeller. Although these students were going to miss out on the college experience, most viewed the dis- advantage in a different perspec- tive. “I don’t think I’ll miss much because I’ll have my own unique experiences to remember and learn from,” stated Mastridge. As for preparation, these se- niors had to prepare for their postgraduation plans just as much as any other college bound students, only in a different man- ner. “I had to take the ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Ap- titude Battery), talk to a recruit- er, and have a physical as well,” explained Mastridge. Even though a large portion of seniors planned on college, oth- ers found different routes to their success. □ by Berta Penebades J Coffee DIF There ver aft sign u ENT CHOI iany other choices besides graduation.

However, several se- niors every year do not get to be part of that procession with their class or friends. Graduating this year, proved no easier for some, if not more difficult because of the raised graduation require- ments. One of the new requirements was a minimum 1.5 grade point average (GPA). Senior Michael Wimpee sup- ported this new law saying, “If someone can’t get a 1.5 in high school, he won’t be able to make it in college, either. I think they could even raise the minimum to 2.0 GPA, because the kids who have trouble passing can get help from a lot of different places, if they try,” continued Wimpee. The new state laws also made a half credit in Fine Arts, Practi- cal Arts, Health, and Economics a requirement. “1 wish they had warned us about these classes when we signed up for our freshman year back in middle school, so we could have planned ahead. I end- ed up taking classes that wasted my time in ninth grade because I hadn’t known about the required courses,” said Jennifer Woolley. She also agreed with the GPA ruling. “Before this requirement, some students were getting out of high school and they couldn’t even read,” commented Wool- ley. Some of the requirements to graduate that affected seniors were not new, though. A failure of no more than four semesters (getting at least 25 credits) and passing the SSAT I and II re- mained important. Mrs. Cummings, the head of the guidance department, ex- plained, “If a student doesn’t pass the SSAT then he can still walk in the line of seniors at graduation with his friends, but will receive a certificate of com- pletion instead of a diploma. He won’t even get to do that though if he doesn’t have a minimum of 1.5 for his GPA, even if he has accumulated enough credits to graduate and passed the SSAT.” Raising the graduation re- quirements should not cause an excess of seniors to stay back, but it should improve the quality and level of education of those graduating into the real world. □ Susana Kugeares DOUBLE CHECKING Because of the raised requirements, many had to have credit checks done.

This described a conversation most commonly spoken among college bound seniors as they neared application deadlines without the slightest idea of where they were going. Although confused about their DECISIONS I Trying to decide on a college was a diffi- cult decision. Seniors listened to college representatives speak, and looked through hundreds of pamphlets. Sandria Thomas looks through a handbook from Florida State University. choice, many seniors had guide- lines and priorities in selecting the college suited for them. One prominent guideline was the quality of the education the insti- tution had to offer. “The quality of education is my major concern because after college I want to be able to get a job that I enjoy and that will pay well,” said Lori Brown. Additional standards included expenses, admission require- ments, and location. The next step involved re- searching through computers. “The computer files in Mr. Na- pier s office were very helpful in defining my outlook on where I want to go,” said Tom Keeble. Along with the computers, many helpful books, pamphlets and catalogs were found in the guidance office. Guidance coun- selors also helped to open new doors for collegebound seniors in many areas. “My guidance counselor gave me a lot of information involving scholarships,” said Keeble. While analyzing the facts many seniors often depended on peoples opinions in helping their choice. “If I value a certain person s opinion I will ask them because most college pamphlets are mis- leading. They don’t show the overall picture,” said Mike Gar- vey. In the end, seniors were usual- ly able to make some sort of deci- sion and mailed their applica- tions. Afterwards, all they could do was anxiously await a reply. Despite the many hassles, stu- dents had to endure, many bene- fited from the dilemma. “After it s all over, V m sure I will have learned a lot about how to go about making major deci- sions,” said Brown. Other students viewed the process from a different point of view. “It s necessary but it ' s a paiin.. II definitely should have started earlier,” said Keeble.

Though not as serious as political campaigns, school elections were not immune to these well-known prom- ises either.

Some students, regardless of who received DEDICATION Preparing for the Homecoming week’s festivities, Britt Pogue, Vice President, and Shelly Gooch, Secretary, put together the junior class float. their vote, did not expect in all reality for these promises to be carried out. However, this year’s junior class officers did try, espe- cially in planning projects and activities. Junior Class President Todd Warner explained, “The main thing we work on is planning the prom. We had to call places be- fore school even started to find one with enough room for 600 people. Las Fon- tanas was the only one big enough” Besides prom, the junior class made a float for Homecoming. Several times, Britt Pogue, the Vice President, combed the halls for juniors to help in making the float. Warner commented, “A lot of peo ple helped but more should have attended the meetings so we could get more of their ideas.” Mrs. Linda Smith, the ju- nior class sponsor for two years, described the fund raisers that helped pay for prom expenses. “Our biggest one was the faculty-varsity basket- ball game. It cut down a lot on the cost of prom, which was around $7,000. In addition to prom, the junior class tried to plan a class trip to Walt Disney World and Epcot Center. They also held a contest in which baby pictures were posted on the board for students to rate according to the one they thought was the cutest. The officers sold spirit hats early in the year to raise money, and they considered selling class pins with the junior year on them. Mrs. Smith let the offi- cers decide on class activi- ties and fund raisers and gave her advice and help, when needed. With all the planned pro- jects, the junior class offi- cers worked busily all year- long. □ Susana Kugeares KICKING THE BUCKET The junior class treasurer, Anne Humphries, contributes to the struc- ture of the float, a shoe, “kicking the bucs”, by adding toilet paper to the chicken wire.

They not only sym- bolized one’s high school years but also that two people were “going steady” The sales of class rings were successful. In 1986 however, class ring sales dropped. Some students ordered class rings because they still felt it was a treasure of memories for years to come . . . Tricia Foster for example, thought it was “tra- ditional and gave memories of high school.” But the majority of the juniors and seniors didn’t want to put the money into it. Lee Lillard said, “I’d only wear it for a year or so and then pay for a college ring.” The prices of rings varied from $85 to $300. The buyer could specify the stone color and cut, type of style, and special designs. “The prices are so outrageous that you could buy a really nice ring for just as much money and it will last your whole life,” said Martha Galloway. “I don’t think they’re a bargain ’cause you only wear them one year,” said Wen- dy Marich. The companies from which the students bought their rings varied. Some were bought through the school by Herff Jones, while others were bought through local jewelers. Most students received the rings as a gift from their parents. Others paid the whole cost them- selves. “For the most part my parents paid for it, but I had to help,” said Brian Dudjak. Some students chose to wear their parents’ rings. Becca Kert said, “I wear my Mom’s class ring because it’s unique and I didn’t even have to pay for it.” Through the years the opin- ions and purposes of class rings have changed. But for some, the memories of high school are still remembered by the band on their finger. □ Julie Walkup HAND IN HAND Class rings were bought in various sizes, colors and styles. These rings were dis- played throughout the school. oUtnmSoffs Some students , after receiving their licenses experience a eavy Metal Clash W hen a person bought a car he in- herited the many risks that came along with owning and driving a car. The one item people did not like were accidents. It did not matter how careful one was, accidents, big and small, were waiting for ev- eryone. Many times both drivers were at fault. “Backing up out the school parking lot, another car backed at the same time and we hit,” said Junior Tyler Golson. Although drivers’ edu- cation taught the laws of the road it could not pre- pare drivers for every pos- sible driving situation. Once familiar with the laws one had to use common sense and think in advance to avoid potential hazards. “I came to a stop sign and looked both ways. A car was turning right so I started to go, then this car sped up and got in front of me,” said George Nichols. The accident was consid- ered Nichols’ fault. Inexperienced drivers often found themselves too easily distracted. Jim Grimshaw was driving along when his passenger, Buddy Goodwin, pointed out a good-looking girl. Grimshaw looked and the car in front of him had stopped fast to let some people cross the street. Grimshaw rammed up his tailpipe. There were times when students were unfortunate enough to get in an acci- dence in which either driv- er was under the influence of drugs or alcohol. “I was waiting to make a left turn and a guy, around 24 years old, ran into the back end of my Dad’s work van,” said Bill Boozer. According to Boozer, the man was drinking beer. He lacked insurance but offered to pay for the damage. Then he asked if my Dad was reasonable. I kind of laughed at that,” related Boozer. The first concern of many students was what their parents were going to say. Said Tyler Golson, “The first thing that went through my mind was that my parents were going to kill me when I got home. But the accident wasn’t that bad so they did not care.” After notifying parents, student drivers had to cope with insurance costs too. Some students did not have collision insurance and others did not have any at all. If the accident was the students fault their insurance was bound to go up. “My insurance rate went up to $1,700 a year,” said Jim Grimshaw. Cars were nice to have, though many problems came along with them. Ac- cidents were one of the worst fears a student faced when owning a car. □ Todd Curd CRASH After colliding with another car on his way to the beach, Trey Dunlap paid the consequences, although it wasn’t his fault.

No other than term papers. Yes, the one thing that many upperclassmen looked forward to each school year. They were re- quired in all Composition classes. After the topic was cho- sen, the work began. First, research materials were lo- cated and after skimming through them, students wrote a preliminary thesis statement and a basic out- line. Most teachers recom- mended the use of note- cards for taking notes. Some teachers even re- quired them and checked how many notecards each student used. “Using notecards seems like a waste of time, and sometimes it is, but if you have a good rough outline including every topic you want to write about, then it makes getting all the notes organized easier ’ said Su- sana Kugeares. The notecards and bib- liography cards, once writ- ten, became the actual body paragraphs of the rough draft of the term pa- per. Revising and perfect- ing the rough draft fol- lowed the first writing. Footnotes or endnotes were added then. “I just write the whole term paper once and don’t bother revising or any- thing. Some of my teachers don’t even read them any- way,” said Darrell Childers. Finally, the introduction, stemming from the thesis statement, was written and then the conclusion from that. This whole process re- quired working in school, after school, and some weekends. Most of the work was done in the li- brary. Although the time spent researching depended on the topic and length of the paper, many of the stu- dents didn’t feel that it was worth the time and effort. “I think its a waste of time,” commented Leann Schoales. “I have better things to do with my time than sit in a library all day.” Other students didn’t think it was always a waste of time. “When the topic ap- con t.

Writing term papers gave stu- dents a better understanding of their subject and practice for col- lege. “When I finish my paper I know so much more about that subject,” said Nikki Marolf. “Writing term papers in high school is going to help me when I go to college,” commented New- man. For most students the research paper added a constant pressure and stress. “It wouldn’t be so bad if there wasn’t the stress, be- cause I have other things to wor- ry about besides a term paper,” said Chris Laursen. Students were not the only ones who had the stress and long hours of reading; teachers had it, too. They had to grade them and read them over twice to make sure they didn’t skip any mis- takes.

The door bell rang and the adrenalin started flowing. You opened the door with a confident smile on your face and the Satur- day night date had begun. Dating definitely added excite- ment to the weekends. There were different degrees of dating. Some felt that a date was an earthshaking experience while others felt more casual about their dates. Activities on dates were var- ied. Some of the more popular ideas for dating were: seeing a movie at the theater or renting one for the VCR, going out for dinner, walking on the beach, or going to parties. With the increase in female in- dependence it wasn’t always the guy who asked and paid for the date. “I take my boyfriend out so his pockets won’t always be emp- ty,” said Sarah Lynn Meyer. Sil- verbell, the PAK sponsored Christmas dance gave females the opportunity to invite the guys and pay for their tickets. Girls were then the “ones in charge” on the date. Although the girls were willing, some guys felt bet- ter if they paid for the date. “That’s just what we’re sup- posed to do, and if we have the money, they’re worth it,” said Guy Neiman. Double dating was also popu- lar. It kept the date from being quite as serious and made the evening more comfortable for some people. “It’s great cause me and my best friend can go out together with two guys so I got to spend time with both,” said Marcia Har- ris Because many Juniors got their licenses to drive, many ex- perienced their first date without a driver along. Glen Loughridge remembers back to his first date, “My knees started shaking and it took me three tries to get my fin- ger to the door bell.

Juniors □ 253 oUmmaoirs College bound students suffer through AT Blues I t was one of those gor- geous Saturdays when everyone would normal- ly be at the beach having a great time getting a sun- tan, but not this Saturday. The auditorium possessed about two hundred college bound students all with two No. 2 pencils. Today was the day of the dreaded SAT. The first section of the SAT, the verbal section contained antonyms, com- pleting the sentence, anal- ogies, and reading for com- prehension. For the verbal section, students learned words such as profligate, garrulous, succincct, apo- thegm, cajole, brazen, and morose. The second section, the math section, contained formulas and math appli- cation problems from ge- ometry and Algebra. For many students it seemed like a waste of time to study so hard for the SAT and learn material that would never be seen or used again. Some students had pho- bias about taking the SAT. “I fear that I will put all the answers in the wrong place,” said Craig Golden- farb. Many students studied together in the library with a friend, asking each other questions. Some students simply tried to cram for the test the night before. Others took the practice SAT to study for the real thing. Most students who took the SAT course offered in school agreed that they benefited from it. “It helped me because there’s no way I could learn those words just from everyday life and conversation,” said Vinh-Loc Nguyen. Some students bought some sort of study aid to help them. “I bought a book called Cracking the SAT and it helped a lot,” said Goldenfarb. Whether worried about the SAT or not, students taking it eventually left the auditorium and enjoyed that beautiful Saturday afternoon. □ by Guy Niemann.

This mass-confusion lasted for only a week though. Then or- ganization began with faculty meetings, homework assign- ments, tests, and class officer meetings. Since the class officers were chosen at the close of last year, they were already making plans for the year. The officers of the sophomore class were — Pres. Eric Collins, Vice Pres., Nancy Baker, Treasurer Kim Berfield, and Secretary Kim Wilson with Ms. Stole as teacher adviser. Activities ranged from the tra- ditional Homecoming float and skit to hall decorating and the Great American Smoke-out held on November 20th. Meetings weren’t held every Monday like other clubs. When there was something that needed to be dis- cussed Eric would call a meeting a couple of days in advance. “The sophomore class doesn’t get a chance to do much because we have two classes above us,” said Shelly Herrin, “But the Smoke — out is one thing that this class did on their own.” The Smoke-out was organized and sponsored completely by the sophomore class.

Not only a place of refuge, the teenage bedroom was a reflec- tion of the owner’s personality. Photos, posters, and other as- sorted paraphernalia often adorned the walls of teenage bedrooms. “My room is the earthly en- trance to the realm of psychede- lia. Wall to wall funk and pictures of my favorite music performers. It shows my great music taste and my love of modern art,” said Brian Dudjak. Unfortunately, the best stu- dents decorating their rooms of- ten didn’t keep them clean. “I’m a very disorganized per- son. My room is very disorgan- ized. I have to search for every- thing I wear,” said April Larson. Unlike his sister April, Curtis Larson was a very organized per- son. “I hate junk in my room. You can’t find anything in a messy room,” said Curtis Larson. “Posters of my favorite musi- cians and pictures of cute guys fill the walls of my room,” said Jenni- fer Howely. Teenagers’ rooms were places where they could escape from problems. “My room was my get-away place where I could be alone. I would go there when problems arose with my family, friends, and school,” said Howely. “My room is a mirror, it re- flects my feelings to the world. It was my pathway to the world. It is my room — it is my world,” said Cheri Carter. Although teenagers’ rooms varied from person to person, the decorating largely reflected their personalities and taste. □ by Chelsea Matthews 260 □ Sophomores Su Chien Rebecca Christodal Curtis Clark David Close Chris Cochran Amber Cocks Rob Colamarino Ed Cole Matt Cole Neil Cole Eric Collins Zach Collins Chris Conover Lynn Corliss Christopher Cox Stephen Cox Denise Crabtree Georgia Craig David Crown Matthew Culp Carolyn Cunningham Wade Cutkomp Julie Dahlhauscr Sean Dali David Dalton Joe Dammons Viki Daras Katrece Darby Ryan David Julie Davis Lea Davis Michael Davis C.

First, there was the smile, the indication of friendliness and personal- ity. Then that sparkle in the eyes, the announcement of peppiness and innocence. It made everyone look twice and comment on how beautiful that picture looked. Thirdly, the tilt of the head and the “just so” pose. Sit up straight, shoul- ders back, head up, turn the chin, look at the cam- era, smile and try to look casual. All in all it turns out well. But, for the subject, get- ting from Point A to point B involved hours of minor scrutinizations, teeth po- lishing, make-up removers, coiffure adjustments and the exact outfit which en- hanced the eyes, hair, pos- ture, and smile. When the time came to put into action all that was practiced, the nervousness of the day had built up. So much so that while sitting, all was forgotten and the smile that surfaced begged only to be natural, that said to the photographer, “Make mine perfect, please.” Not to worry, the picture looked like everyone elses. □ by Kim Wilson FLASHING THOSE SMILES Picture day brought out the best smiles In students.

Eaddy ANIMAL HOUSE Unusual pets keep owners entertained H ave you ever had a bird bark at you? For Jamie and Laura LeCher and other owners of unusual pets, such absuridities were part of a daily routine. The LeCher’s owned a yellow naped Amazon parrot named Poncho. Laura said, “I don’t real- ly like the bird, but it does some cute things.” Poncho said, “Thank you” when someone fed him and, “Close the door the cat will get out” when someone opened the door. He also screamed whenever the phone rang. “Poncho thinks he is a dog. He barks and so my sister calls him puppy. He also screams both of my sisters’ names and it sounds like the two of them fighting,” said Jamie. Another unusual bird be- longed to Chelley Wagner. Ac- cording to Wagner, her ring neck parrot, Kazumea, was a natural born clown. Said Chelley, “He will play with anything he can get his beak on” Chris Keats owned two red rat snakes and one Asian green tree snake. Keats’ neighbors called him the neighborhood snake man because he caught snakes in his neighbors’ yards when he was asked to. After catching the snakes, Keats kept them as pets and then sold them to a local pet shop. Keats also raised monarch but- terflies from the caterpillar stage. Said Keats, “My second grade teacher got me interested in caterpillars. A man from Can- ada sent us 500 monarch butter- flies. From them we raised more monarch butterflies on milk- weed.” The Keats’ tagged their but- terflies and set them free to see if they would travel farther south than Florida, but none of them did. From barking birds to scaly snakes, pets provided a unique source of entertainment for their owners. Not only playmates, pets provided an extra way to spend spare time. □ by Kahn Case and Lori Gilliam Charles Henry Shelley Herrin Stephanie Hess Lance Hidalgo Kim Hild Dan Hillman Ralph Hodge Marti Hoffman Rob Hofstetter Ed Holeman Matthew Holmes Brian Holmqulst Mark Holmstrom Kenneth Hopkins Duane Herman Amy Hornak Justin Howard Jennifer Howley Chris Hughes Ann Humphreys Jason Hurt Tim Huse Cheri Huss Darcie Jackson Terrence Jackson Tyria Jackson Meyarnda Jenkins Gina Jezeski Connie Johler James Johnson Renae Johnson Toni Johnson Lecher - Olmsted o)mcg)i!mco LEFTIES DO IT RIGHT Despite a lot of problems , lefties wouldn’t change one bit S ome people think its weird. Other like it and think its cool be- cause its different. Most students who didn’t do this, didn’t concern themselves with it, but those who were left-handed thought about it more. For the other handed, inadequate num- ber of left-handed desks meant a left-handed per- son would have to struggle in an awkward position to write an assignment. Left-handed people ad- justed to the awkwardness though, since they had to deal with left-handedness their whole life. “You don’t notice the troubles of being left-hand- ed all the time,” said Kevin Dyer. Another problem a left- handed person faced was trying to sharpen a pencil. Since the handle for the pencil sharpener is found on the right side for right- handed people, it was a bother to the lefties. Even the ink from ball- point pens caused prob- lems for the lefties. While writing a page, the left- handed person’s hand swept across the ink caus- ing it to rub off on his hand and smearing across the paper. These things were every day hassles, which meant they didn’t bother the lef- ties that much. When asked if she ever wished she was right-handed, Jackie Gibbs said, “No, when you’re left-handed you use your left hand as well as right-handers use their right hand.” □ by Jeff Eller vtr� TAKING NOTE There are many problems lefties have. One major disadvantage was writing in a right-hand desk. While taking notes in Mrs. Wat- kins class, Raina Proctor took ad- vantage of the few left-handed desk in the school.

These were the one’s that people did when they were either bored, or had free time. But to students, com- mon or not, hobbies were a way of being unique from every one else. Being different from ev- ery one else played a ma- jor factor in students choosing a hobby. Students hobbies ranged from a vari- ety of fields; Greek danc- ing, antique doll collecting, painting and water skiing were only a few of the unique hobbies students had. “Collecting antique dolls is something 1 enjoy. Doll collecting is different from my friends hobbies. That’s why I like it,” said Jennifer Caudell. Another reason why stu- dents chose the hobbies they did was because it benefitted others. “Greek dancing was dif- ferent from any other kind of dancing. We performed for charity organization to help others,” said Vicki Daras. “Art is something that has to be done with care, you have to put your mind into drawing and it involves a lot of time,” said Joe Tsambiras. Although students had various reasons why they began their hobbies, the students agreed that hob- bies were each persons way of expressing ones self. □ by Chelsea Matthews WANNA DANCE?

But, the moment the dismissal bell rang, doors flew open releasing over 2500 students for six minutes of pan- demonium. Quiet became some- thing the halls had only heard about. Although the period between classes increased from five min- utes to six two years ago, some students thought that this time should be lengthened again. “Some classes are so far away from others that its hard to get to class on time, especially when you’re carrying heavy books and you have to go to your locker. It would be better if we had eight minutes between classes,” said Krysten Morrow. Jeannine Edwards agreed, “To me, high school shouldn’t be running from class to class, to avoid being tardy, is this your idea of fun?” Inevitably, having sat for fifty minutes, stationary, while doing classwork, students began to an- ticipate the seemingly trivial ac- tion of changing classes. It al- lowed not only a change of sce- nery but, brief exchanges among friends. “I pass notes to some of my friends in the halls because I don’t ever see them or I don’t have class with them,” stated Kara Hendry. However, efforts made to chat with friends congested the hall- ways. “I don’t think people should get in the hallway and talk, they should get in the grass. Maybe then, there would be less jams,” said Jamie Paul. In effort to prevent class tar- dies, the deans stood out in the hallways to tell the students how much time they had to get to class. Once the second bell rang, those remaining in the halls re- ceived detentions. “They may not think that we have their best intentions at heart but, we do,” said Asst.; Principal Tom Reed. The time between classes proved to be not only a necessity but, also, a time to socialize. It gave students something to look - forward to after fifty minutes of classwork. □ by Susan Wernsing TIME’S UP For many, the 6-minute changing time between classes allowed ample time to go to your locker as well as socialize.

Iffo© Making It Work Class officers strive to do their best T his year Freshmen made a jump from Middle School to High School. New friends had to be made and new leadership had to take charge. David Ulmer was elect- ed president and Andrea Warner vice-president. Secretary was Andy Ba- rak, and treasurer was Su- sana Cheng. All were un- der the leadership of Mr. Hassall. They worked hard to get the ball rolling. The second week in No- vember was the first offi- cial activity for which 15 people showed up. It was a car wash at Montgomery Ward in Clearwater Mall. “We did pretty well,” said Mr. Hassall. “The money we raised will go into the bank with our dues. That makes about $165.00.” “With that money we would like to have a par- ty,” said Ulmer. Both Ulmer and Warner felt overburdened with the expectations of the class. “It’s not fair that the offi- cers do most of the work and never get credit,” said Hassall. While elections for other class officers were held the previous spring, freshmen elections couldn’t be held until the fall, according to Hassall. “I had a lot of good ideas but we had such little class participation. It’s hard to get organized,” said Ulmer. “I will run again,” said Warner. “Next year will be different.” □ by Kim Wilson ALL WORK, NO PLAY Freshmen class officers devoted numerous hours of hard work and dedication to make the freshmen class the best possible.

However, that once stereo- typed view of the working teen- ager was no longer valid. More and more, students under the age of fifteen, freshmen, searched for jobs. Although the first year of high school burdened many freshmen with numerous pressures, they managed to find time to hold jobs. A popular reason for seeking jobs involved gaining work expe- rience in a particular field or ca- reer. This sometimes helped freshmen decide what they would like to enter into after graduation. I work at Karen Zabocki Inte- riors because I want to learn more about interior designing,” said Gaylynn Shirley. However, sometimes fresh- men reached dead ends when employers simply would not hire them. The employers ' reason for not hiring freshmen usually in- cluded their lack of experience in the job market and their age. Most employers only hired appli- cants sixteen years of age and older. For this reason, many freshmen turned to volunteer work and self-employment. Babysitting and neighborhood lawn services provided outlets for eager workers to earn money and set their own hours. “I babysit for an eighteen- month old boy and mow lawns in my neighborhood as well,” said Mark Scheid. Although they were difficult to come by, some freshmen were able to land unique jobs through connections. “I work on a thirty-eig ht-foot offshore racing boat and am in charge of keeping it clean,” said James Gaskins. Employment in their first year [ of high school did supply fresh men with money. On the other hand, it also burdened them with other problems. One major prob- lem involved finding time for homework. Transportation was also a burden since many fresh- men were unable to drive. Even- tually, freshmen needed to bal- ance their job responsibilities with their personal ones. Even though freshmen knocked on a lot of employer’s doors before finding work, more and more freshmen made their first mark in the job market. □ by Berta Penabades GETTING A HEAD START Even though most freshmen were under- age, some still managed to find jobs in the working world earning minimum wage, $3.35 per hour.

When driving was but another fantasy and school, a chal- lenge. To some of the students, it was still a terrifying reali- ty. It was pretty safe to say that the majority of the bus riders were freshmen. But occasionally there were sophomores on the bus, and very rarely were there juniors and seniors. As a freshman, trouble and hardship, including riding the bus, was a part of life. Freshmen, however, were an unlearned breed and did not realize the tortures of the bus and therefore didn’t complain. Sitting half awake by themselves or with other sleepy freshmen, they struggled to stay awake. They had been awakened at 4 A.M. by their trusty alarm clock, fixed their hair, ate a hearty meal of Froot-Loops, and caught the bus at 6:30. Once on the bus, the color surround- ings consisted of green seats (and a lovely shade of green at that) made of soft and comfortable vinyl with etchings of previous riders. After the ride was over, ill 3 Ml they became psyched up for the wonderful day at school. All day they looked forward to their ride home. After the bell rang at 2:34 P.M., the flock of freshmen scurried to find the correct bus number, sometimes going up and down the bus line more than once. They had to find the bus quickly or else they might have been left behind and, with no other source of transportation, good oV mom or dad would have had to perform the honors. But assuming they were on the bus safe and sound, f they were whisked away towards home. Without much surprise, not a single freshman could be found to put a quote in this story.

A lthough there were times when younger siblings cursed their family name, there were other times when they actually appreciated having an older brother or sister at school. No one wanted to live in some- one else s shadow. “People will come up to me and say ‘aren ' t you Jody Carden’s lilttle sister?” said Amy Carden. “It can drive me up the wall sometimes!” Oftentimes, teachers also con- fused members of the same fam- ily, even with a significant age different. “The worst is when teachers compare me with my older brother,” commented An- drea Warner. When siblings of the same gen- der looked similar, teachers fre- quently confused their names. On the other hand, there were some advantages to being a younger sibling. Those with older brothers or sisters had more of an opportunity to meet upperclass- men and found it easier to adjust socially. When I was in middle school, I knew a lot of people because of my older sister Tracey,” said An- drea Ellis. So when I came here, I already knew several sopho- mores and upperclassmen.” Proving that siblings could get along, senior Madre Barber se- lected her younger brother, Louis, to escort her on Home- coming night. “It doesn ' t bother me when people call me Madre or Erin’s little brother,” commented Louis Barber. “I just do my one thing.” Although being the kid brother of sister was not always easy, it was a normal part of growing up. When resentment subsided, younger siblings grew to appreci ate their special older friend. □ by Julie Michael BROTHERLY LOVE To some, having an older brother or sister was just a bother.

When teenagers chose in- dependently how to spend their spare time, many sought jobs. A few even passed up the opportunity to earn money for the oth- er benefits in volunteer work. The idea of having a job and not receiving compen- sation, to some, seemed unethical, but, people who enjoyed working with oth- erpeople seldom com- plained. Rather, they en- joyed helping others. Laurie Burton began working at fourteen years of age in a pharmacy at University General Hospi- tal in Tampa to get a head- start on the future. “Its fun,” said Burton. I get to meet different peo- ple and I make new friends easier.” Linda Spalding, who worked for her mother’s boss as a computer opera- tor was required to com- plete her homework before she went to work.

Peter Hovarth said, “I work in a church answering the telephone for a service so I just take my homework with me.” Parental approval was usually not hard to find for teenage volunteers. Both Spalding and Burton re- ported enthusiastic sup- port from their parents for displaying responsibility. However, volunteer workers did suffer several disadvantages. Grades sometimes slipped and oth- er extracurricular activities had to be dropped. “In the spring, I will have to quit my job be- cause softball starts,” said Burton. ‘‘I won’t have enough time to do both.” Money posed another disadvantage for volunteer workers. For freshmen, age requirements by em- ployer greatly limited alter- native jobs. For those who found self-satisfaction from vol- unteer work, the rewards outweighed the negatives. Those unselfish enough to devote their time to a wor- thy cause not only gained experience for their own future, but helped others face theirs. □ by Susan Wernsing Vogel - Zirpoli Robert Vogel Andrew Wacker Susan Waldrop Andrea Walters Jay Walther Andrea Warner Ryan Warner Michael Washington David Wasilewski Jeffery Wasilewski Nicole Wasilewski Joseph Wattam Nicole Weiser Lorraine Welch Yvonne Welsh Brandon Wendling Christine Wenzel Michael West Eric Wheeler Edward White Elijah White Katina White Tee White Sundi Whiteman 286 □ Freshmen Carl Wickman Linda Wilkens Jennifer Wilkinson Luceere Williams Melissa Williams Brett Wilson Cory Wilson Newton Wilson Crystal Wisdom Nicole Wiser Cathy Wojciechowski Charlene Wood Mark Wrenn Melvin Wright Ashley Wyatt Nicholas Yazbeck i Transportation Dilemma Problems arise for non-driving students T he thrill and excitement of finally being in high school filled the mind of every freshman. But, the bubble burst quickly when the reality of hav- ing no definite mode of transpor- tation set in. Suddenly, staying after school for the Key Club meeting or getting to the game became a very serious matter. “It really is a pain! If I’m lucky 1 can catch a ride with my sister or with my parents, but, if not, I’m stuck,” said Amy Carden. The most direct problem fac- ing freshmen, due to the lack of a license or car of their own, seemed to be the journey to school in the morning or home in the afternoon. But to some, it getting a ride Although some freshmen caught the bus and others walked or rode their bikes, many were left with no definite form of transportation. Chris Sublette stops Mike Lamanna after school and asks him for a ride home. didn’t seem to really be a prob- lem. “Apart from having to walk home a lot, it’s not an out-of-hand problem for me really,” said Rob Kildoo. Another way of getting to and from school that solved the fresh- men’s problem came in the form of the school buses of which had a number of routes. Because not having a personal automobile created many incon- veniences, alternative methods of transportation such as bicycles and skateboards were used. “It does tend to restrict what you can do. I ride my bike and mostly do things that don’t re- quire a car like catching a movie or spending the night at a friend’s house,” said Tom Komninos. The City of Clearwater pro- vided yet another form of trans- portation, the city buses. Buses ran to and from such places as the malls, the beach, and other popular locations. Yet other freshmen weren’t as hard hit by this problem because their activities provided some transportation. “Being in band takes up most of my time, but, I guess you just learn that you have to ask for rides — sometimes you get them and sometimas you don’t,” an- swered Russ McCutcheon. Furthermore, some turned to car pooling. “Thank goodness I know a lot of people who do drive, but the real problem comes in when the car gets filled up,” said Kristina Woody. “I guess this is the point where being a freshman takes its toll and when you’re thankful for and appreciate older brothers or sis- ters and cousins,” said Tom Kom- ninos. “Hopefully, though, this won’t be a problem for too much longer” □ by Elizab eth Voulieris Freshmen □ 287 PALM PAVILION The Palm Pavilion is located right in the center of all the action on Clearwater Beach.

The only problem they had was to answer the question so it would not cre- ate problems but solve them. Administrators thought of how to solve a couple of problems like tardiness to class, suspensions, riots, skipping classes, and the new problem of crack cocaine. These problems were not only handled by the principal and deans but by the teachers, too. The hallways were patrolled by the deans and the cafeteria was looked after by the teachers. If a student was caught in the halls without a pass, they would be given a detention. The stu- dent could also be given a deten- tion by their teacher when re- turned to class. To many, deten- tions could lead to a suspension or a twilight detention which was two hours long. To handle the rapid growth of crack cocaine and to wipe it out of the Pinellas County School system, bulletins were posted and seminars were held in school by Officer Brooks. The Pinellas County asked Clearwater High to host the 75th anniversary of the Pinellas Coun- ty School System. It was cele- brated in the Jack White stadi- um. The day was nicknamed “Balloon Day” because of the many balloons and the two hot air balloons on either end of the football field. To boost the students spirits a pep rally was held directly after the celebration for the football game against Largo and the swim team which was going to state. The administration worked hard to improve the school sys- tem and make the students ap- preciate their school. □ by Sheri Geoghegan ALL IN FUN On the 75th anniversary of Pinellas County Schools, Mr. Evans was an- nounced as the winner of the “Kiss the Pig” contest.

But for some teach- ers, the end of their work day wasn’t when the seventh period bell rang. A few teachers had a second part of their work day, their second job waiting for them. Some teachers didn’t have to worry about working a second job, but teachers like Mr. Hassal, who had two daughters to put through college and bills to pay, more money in found out they couldn’t make it without another job. “I’ve been working a second job now for seventeen years,” said Mr. Hassal. Hassal leaves his academics behind when he punches his time card at five in the evening at the cool glassed in Sears Automotive Center of Missouri Ave. An article in the St. Petersburg Times stated that teachers sala- ries started at $15,000 per year me and about half of the 5,600 Pinel- las County teachers were forced to moonlight. On the other hand, some teachers carried on a second job only during part of the school year. Mrs. Stout prepared tax re- turns during the winter. “Having a second job helps with the bills,” said Mrs. Stout. Although they had a full load teaching with high school stu- dents, teachers found time to hold a second job, each teacher having a different reason or moti- vation to moonlight. □ by Jeff Eller MAY I HELP?

They are called volunteers. Many students didn’t realize that the school had volunteers unless they were up in the office or it was one of their parents that volunteered. The volunteers helped out the school in many ways. From sim- ple to difficult, to confusing jobs, they made sure it was done, and done right. They took turns during the day. Many came in the morning and stayed for two to three hours while others didn’t come until the afternoon and left when school was out. The volunteers came to school just as early as the teachers and students to fill out tardy and ab- sentee slips. They also helped with filing, typing, and distribut- ing and organizing papers throughout the day. Many stayed after school to help teachers and offered their services as tutors. With the help of volunteers, the school saved time and money and allowed the parents of the students to get active and in- volved in the school. There were approximately ninety-five volunteers who worked in the office throughout the week. Without the help and dedication that they put into the school, the administration would of had to work harder and longer hours in order for the work to be finished. □ by Sheri Geoghegan BUSYBUDDIES The work of volunteers is never done.

Although some teachers were new, others were familiar wi th the grounds. A few were re- turning to not only their jobs, but their own high school alma mat- er. “I’m teaching here because of my loyalty. I couldn’t imagine teaching anywhere else,” said Ms. Espey. Ms. Espey graduated in 1957 and went on to Florida State where she studied to become a teacher. “At the time we were in col- lege, teaching was the only popu- lar career for a woman,” she ex- plained, “Also, it is a good job when you’re a mother. My mom was a teacher.” Ms. Moravec also graduated in 1957 and went on to Florida State. “I always wanted to become a teacher. My 7th grade English teacher was really wonderful. I admired her and she really in- spired me,” said Ms. Moravec. “I decided to teach at C.H.S. because it is the best school in Upper Pinellas and we offer so many more classes,” she ex- plained. Mr. Ewbanks, who also gradu- ated from Clearwater, taught at three other schools in the area but said, “I always wanted to come back and teach here.” He got that chance when a job open- ing came up. “I started coaching but when the job came I took it,” said Mr. Ewbanks. When asked why he decided to teach, Mr. Ewbanks said, “Because of all my own good teachers.” The years may go by quickly in high school but it seems these teachers found a way to make them live on. □ , _ _ „ by Lori Gilliam and Karin Case MORE THAN MEMORIES Many teachers return to their old high schools to teach while others only remem- ber theirs.

Mrs. McCracken went on duty third lunch, after she was finished with her P.E. class. There were two to three teach- ers on duty during each lunch. They watched out for misbehav- ing and littering and made sure the students were satisfied with the cafeteria and themselves. They helped the deans look out for students cutting class and talking to their friends in the hall- ways. They also made sure there was no litter on the floors and table. Students who came late to lunch and tried to cut into lines with their friends were asked by the teachers to move to the end of the line and not to do it again. The teachers appeared to some students as mean but they were just enforcing and remind- ing students about the rules. To other students, the teachers were nice and considered their friend. The teachers talked and answered questions that were oc- casionally asked them. They made conversation with many students. “The teachers took their own time to look after students and become friends, but they were not appreciated by all of the stu- dents.

The door opens and someone or something comes walking through the door dressed up in what looks like a snowman with a gas mask on, but it was only Mr. Jones modeling chemical gear. In order for the students to better understand the material, many teachers use different visu- al aids or sound effects. “When teachers used visual techniques like dresing up or changing their voices to match a character in a book, students lis- tened to the teacher more and the class seemed to go by quicker than usual,” said Jess Feeley. Mrs. Parker tended to use voice inflection to portray char- acters in her literature class while Mr. Bohn used films with animat- ed characters for his composition class. Many teachers made their stu- dents do the reports themselves and present them to the class. An, example of this type of teacher was Mr. Ewbanks who had his students do written and oral reports with a visual aid. The students also got a chance to make a film about one of the sub- jects that were taught in the class. □ by Sheri Geoghegan HALLOWEEN?

Does it all equal out in the end? The answer relies on the person’s point of view. Teachers do have some privi- leges, like their own cafeteria, but so do the seniors. The only difference is that the cafeteria food comes to them instead of them going to the food. Teachers also have a lounge where they can smoke and buy soft drinks. Teachers got free periods not just to relax, but to grade papers. They also stayed after school and through some vacations just to work on schedules and test pa- pers for their classes. Even though teachers got a section of their own for parking, it didn’t always mean that they were able to park. Students in a hurry to get to class because they were late, parked in the teach- ers’ section. They also had to give up many lunches in order ' to help students and watch them make-up tests. When a teacher found the time in school to plan a field trip for their class they had to ask the principal’s permission to ap- prove it. Then, they had to get the parents of the students to ap- prove it, too. Teachers may of had privi- leges, but they still had to follow the rules of the school and work just as hard as their students. □ by Sheri Geoghegan PIG OUT The teachers cafeteria has a relaxing at- mosphere where teachers eat and just get away from the students.

It started as any other youth retreat would. Loading on the bus, excitement in the air and feelings of knowing something good was to come out of it. From an outsider’s look on this retreat it would be funny but to the youth there it was a night- mare. Buses breaking down, holes in tents, hot muggy weather and worst of all, mosquitos. Looking back now at all the pictures it is easy to laugh. They say out of chaos comes unity. They were right! Now at Skycrest there is a real feeling of unity in the youth group.

The F.S.U. Circus held three performances in the Jack White Stadium at Clearwater High School during November, 1986. The “Flying High” Circus was primarily an aerial and stage pre- sentation. It had no animal acts. There were three rings of enter- tainment for high wire, trapeze, and acrobatic performances. The Kiwanis Club of Clearwa- ter Foundation sponsored the pre- sentation at the stadium. The funds were donated to various youth service programs. Jamie Hatchett, a member of the Key Club who helped sell cot- ton candy, popcorn, and hot dogs said, “We all put in a lot of effort. Kiwanis paid us back by helping us pay our way to Convention ’87 in Canada.” All in all, the circus raised money which benefitted many clubs and organizations while it provided exciting entertainment for the public. □ by Karin Case Community □ 329 PERFECT BALANCE The FSU Circus performs on the trapeze wire at Jack White Stadium to help raise money for the youth programs. 355 YONGE STREET • 402 BLOOR STREET W. • 2491 LAKESHORE BLVD.

Undoubtedly, the 80’s were to be remem- bered as the decade that Americans were obsessed with “getting fit”. And as this obsession grew, the demand for means of achieving it grew also. At the beginning of the school year, a new fa- cility was added to Clear- water High which offered help to those who strove to become part of the “thin and trim” generation. A donation by Morton Plant Hospital through the REACH program, the Clear- water High Game Field was constructed at the corner of the practice field right next to the tennis courts. The field was donated to both the school and the community and was open to any one in- terested in using it. In addi- tion to private use, however, the field was also used by PE classes and school athletic teams.

School was . . . incline Down eniors ordering w their caps and gowns, juniors making plans for the Junior Senior Prom, sophomores deciding what classes to take during their third year of high school (the year which many con- sidered the most impor- 1 n tant), and — freshman glad to soon be giving up their titles of “the new kid”. . . Add these events together and the sum is unmistakable — school is winding down. These yearly rituals were not all that marked the close of the year, however. In January, all class- rooms in E and F wings were retiled and the E and F hallway was tiled for the first time. Though most students saw the tile as unnecessary, teach- ers agreed that the tile did cut down Qe 9TSW7E N DAYS on hallway noise. Also in January, As- sistant Principal Ed Baldwin left to be- come principal of Larg Alternative School. In his place came Rudy Valano, who was pre- viously at Osceola (cont. on page 359) 356 □ Closing S Featherston WINTER?

GRADUATE During the Senior Assembly held on Feb- ruary 18, seniors were instructed on how to order their caps and gowns and told that the total cost for graduation was $19.25. Becky Palmer attempts to find her cap size by using the special measur- ing tape which all seniors received. No senior was allowed to go through gradu- ation ceremonies without a cap and gown.

L. Eaddy he clock struck 12:30 and the same bell which started the year off back in August signaled the end of everyone’s last exam, and the beginning of summer. Students streamed into the parking lot. They were glad to be out, but carried with them the memory of a lot of good, and a few not so good times. Finally, they could ignore the 6:00 am alarm and hit the beach, instead of the books. But summer in no way put things at a total standstill. For the freshmen, sophomores and juniors, another school year would start in Au- gust. For the seniors, work and college were just around the corner. Indeed, the end of school merely marked the beginning of summer, and hence, another round of The In-Between Days. □ 360 □ Closing Photographers 1987 AQUA CLARA STAFF Editor-in-Chief Co-Editor Assistant Editors Sports Editors Organizations Editors Academics Editor Seniors Editor Juniors Sophomores Freshmen Faculty Advertising Editor Advertising Staff Index Business Manager Copy Editor Staffers Second Semester Staffers Lynette Eaddy Carrie McLaren Cassie Flory Chris Laursen Flip Coleman Gary Cuddeback Laura Larson Valerie Wickersham Julie Michael Janet Coffee Julie Walkup Chelsea Matthews Jennifer Nelis Sheri Geoghegan Guy Niemann Matt Cole Alescia Fleming Kim Wilson Vance Paulette Paul Droubie Joe Safirstein Todd Curci Cynthia Henry Brian Bailey Karin Case Jeff Eller Lori Gilliam Susana Kugeares Berta Penabades Elizabeth Voulieris Susan Wernsing Beatrice Baginski Barbie Casella John Goodgame Suzi Hider Darci Jackson Christie Leroux Laura Larson Leesa Vecco Mari Roby Judy Cannaday Lesley Campbell Advisors • XV x- • v . ; • .x v :,;x V ' ' . ■ ' ' •“ ' ' s ' „ V.. • ; •; XvXXv.
