From the first day we walk into our high school to those last steps upon the stage to receive our diplomas, we all have been influenced greatly by the experiences that each day brought us. The early portion of the day sets the pace for the hours that follow. The buzzing of an olorm clock seems to be the most dreaded part of the day. After only 3 hours of sleep Cbecause of A.P.English papers, studying for a biology test, or any other late night activity? not even the gallant efforts of your Rice Crispies can be counted on to help you confront the day. Yet when one arrives at school this overwhelming craving for sleep seems to diminish. Eligibilty cards, detentions, and early dismisal notes all owoit students before 8:05. This is then followed by a last minute stop at one's locker, an oll out rush to 1 st hour, with an optimistic outlook for the rest of the day's happenings. .K 4, .

The five minute possing time between closses serves olso os o moment for smiling, flirtotion, lost minute review of notes or o frontic scromble for popers ond books. By fifth hour, Ponther oppetites growl ond the cofeterio fills with brown bogs ond green troys. A study holl spent in the librory produces concentrotion thot is wormer, looser, ond less frightening becouse of o friend ocross the toble. As the finol bell rings to dismiss o croud of jeons ond blue G gold vorsityjockets, we ogoin must tuck owoy into memory the moments of fun, the moments of onger, the times of loughing, the times of leorning. These moments become the woy we ore. S HE AY WE ARE Some of the most important times of our lives are spent within the walls of DeWitt High School. The knowledge we obtain, the new things we experience, and the memories we collect will serve as a guide in the years that follow. Lectures, labs, and loose time in the hallways, give the hours we spend in school an appealing blend. Our daily routines from first to seventh hour bring many contacts both academically and socially. And hopefully these will aid in achieving our goals, fulfilling our potential, and making our every dream come true. 2.

In other words, Spirit Week is a time to HANG LOOSE! The 1984 Fall Spirit Week started on a black note when the entire student body mourned the death of the Mason Bulldogs. Tuesday of Spirit Week took on a relaxed atmosphere when students donned sweats and hats of all shapes and sizes. The excite- ment of the day culminated in the big Powder Puff game in which the Seniors set a new record, scoring more points than any other team in the history of DeWitt High School. Spirit shined everywhere Wednesday, when everyone displayed their favor- ite college attire. Thursday the halls of D.H.S. were transformed into sandy beaches and sway- ing palm trees. Students arrived at sunrise ready to boogie on the beach at the Dawn Dance . Friday students return- ed to the traditional dress-up day to show their spirit with true DeWitt class and style.

From the very first snap of Riff's fingers to the bittersweet death of Tony, the audience was captured by the hilarious antics of Officer Krupke , the beautiful sound of Maria's voice, and the glitter and excitement of the Gym Dance. West Side Story was a smashing success due to the care and devotion of the fine majors and the hard working chorus. The directors that molded the creation were Mr. and Mrs. Kressler, Mrs Rypstra, Bobby Boling and Mary Spaniola Cour choreographersb, who all gave 1101, of their time, energy, and dedication to this effort.

At times It is the smell of sweat socks from the gym, ink solvents from graphics, and occasionally the good smells of things-a-cookin in home economics class. On those occa- sions however, that the halls are filled with the destinctive aroma of for- maldehyde, it is a sure sign that Dr. Shooks has his class disecting again. When not providing instruction for his biology or anatomy classes, Dr. Shooks enjoys fishing, hunting, and keeping track of his daughter, Marcy. q TOM ZIELASKOWSKI If you find yourself ln search of a Freshman CWhy would anyone want to do that?D the most logical place to seek them out would be in one of Mr. Z's many academic science classes. The lab tables of room 132 are filled with the scientest of the future who are now preparing themselves, under the able tutorage of Mr.Z, for the science cur- riculum of their remaining high school years.

ART DEPARTM PHYSICAL EDUCATION SONJA CORN ELL DeWitt High School is, indeed, fortunate to have someone like Mrs. Cornell to add a sense of beauty to an otherwise bleak and drab atmosphere.

SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Have you ever wondered what makes the heart work? Do you know the formula for sugar, or what makes the Earth or it the sun? lf not, perhaps one of the great science teachers in our school can be of help to you. We are fortunate to have Mr. Z, who teaches academic science and one class of biology, and Mr. Shooks, who teaches bio- logy, anatomy and physiology.

We are fortunate to have three instructors in our in- dustrial and vocational educa- tion department that provide us with instruction in subjects that are very practical, require the development of our common sence, and worldlike in that they prepare us for the world of work in which we will all soon find ourselves. Visable many places around DeWitt High School are the tangable evidences of the learning which takes place in these non-academic classes. Whether it is the Panther on the front of the building, the finely tuned auto that gets us where we want to go, the repaired gheto blaster that can again shatter a wine glass, the printed program for the 1985 com- mencement, the design and construction of a bed or gun cabinet or the completion of a mechanical drawing of a ma- chinist vise. All of these are the evidence of the skills and under- standings of the students that are enrolled in our industrial education classes. m.,.,,..-3 U ,vgyga -fsr 142 'ww 21 ,S 5 MQW li?

Ranking high among this long list of GREATS is the one and only Jeff Kressler. Mr. Kressler has dedicated his time, effort, and the Kressler sense of humor to making our Music Department what it is to- day. We look forward each day to seeing his smiling face with eagerness paralled only by the eagerness that we have for en- countering new musical scores. Under his direction, the chorus produces a sound which places a wine glass in no jeopardy but has been responsible for shat- tering the glass door of the fire extinguisher case. The Stage Band CBetter known as Play Time? is responsible for filling the hallways with musical melodies. Mr. Kressler's assistance is also appreciated as the Band goes about the business of accumu- lating the necessary funds for their march down Main St. with Mickey Mouse. lf the Band repeats it's M performance in the State of Michigan competi- tion, it is then only fitting that they should add some pleasure to the Orlando Florida area. 147 I 51 r , -' f WW. ,,,, .W A yn, ' Qllmnwn, . , If 1 .af - 148 'Kva,,4M WM 7 , 2 if H, , 1 -L, , 'Q' 'qv I ,, 75117 Wi 1 k Af ,, W . gf 4 46 W W ., W Wy, M 4 M' ..

Ms. Debbie Boyd-Hancock, who teaches girls' P.E., includes a wide variety in her curriculum. Not only does her schedule con- tain things like swimming, danc- ing and volleyball, but she also teaches a health class, including CPR, guest speakers and inter- esting demonstrations. Some of the many activities Mr. Keevan teaches in his boys' P.E. class are bombardment, basketball, track and field, and also floor hockey. These athletic instructors can be counted on to have something useful and exciting organized for their pupils. ve at i , 3 - 5- , 5 4 2 W NN' L'- X 5... 55 ......... wi. 4' 4 150 Guidence ff Counseling When lost or confused obout school closses, os mony ore, your best choice of oction is to check out the ossistonce thot con be goined from our Guidonce ond Counseling Center.

All in all, the rewards far surpassed the costs. The Freshman ended their 1984 Football season with a 5 and 3 record. The cheerleaders spur- red on the football players with before game ice cream sun- daes, carnations, and morning donuts. The players returned their appreciation at the end of the year banquet with flowers for the cheerleaders. Both the J.V. and Freshman squads would like to express their special thanks to their new coach Miss Hedlund. Super B EELKIN ..... Billie Jo Ballard shows her Panther Pride' owl bound??' O l'T1OUSe!!

When oll was said and done, the Pon- thers had a 6-3 record, earning them a Ord place finish in the league. Leading the Panthers this seoson were Jim McCarthy, who ran for over 1000 yards, quarterback Tim Miller, and defensive stondouts Rich Curtiss, Jon Holland, and Dan Ebright. The Highlight of the seoson oc- curred in the gome against Okemos. The Panthers, heavy underdogs against the Chief- tains, pulled off a stunning upset against the Class powerhouse, winning 10-6. This game overshadowed the Pan- thers' heartbreaking four- overtime loss to Lansing Catholic Centrol, o gome which could have propelled the Pon- thers into the playoffs. However, the Ponthers, led by Coaches Thornton, Abbey, and Z., had a great season. The 1984-651 D.H.S. football team Hello mom! Jeff asks, 'Where ore the Pro Scouts? Mr. Z teaching aerobics.

Panther vs. Panther scrimmage ARSITY FOOTBAL b P Both the JV and Freshman foot- ball squads turned in fine perfor- mances this past season. However, the Freshmen were overshadowed by the JV squad, which finished the year with a perfect Q-O record. Led by coaches Baird and Rypstra, the Junior Varsity monhondled most of their opponents with little dif- ficulty. This domination was ac- counted for by an overall team effort that dispalayed a tremen- dous amount of talent. All in all, the success of our J.V. squad proves to be promising for next seoson's Varsity team. Not to be discounted, the Freshmen squad also turned in a fine season, finishin with a 5-3 record. The team glowed pro- mising talent, which will prove to be valuable for future years. Both squads deserve con- gratulations on their fine efforts. Coaches Christie and Easlick overlook the situation.

John was also selected as League Medalist and All League First Team Capital Cir- cuit with an average of 38.33, and the third best score in the Regionals with a score of 77.
