Each season, filled with memories, is represented in pic- ture. These pictures stay new, though years grow old. The reign of a Senior is short-lived compared to the wait- ing expectations of a Freshman. Each Senior will remem- ber the friendship, accomplishments, and knowledge attained in his brief four years. Underclassmen will have this and more years in which to recall high school memories. The Edisonian has attempted to capture the story of the year with pictures of the people and events that made this year special. 5 Returning for the Last Time New Arrivals r Cherished Homecoming Memories Remain An Exciting moment in one’s life Interested students showing their pride. Homecoming was a time to display school spirit. Sophomore hall won decorators’ honors and school colors were proudly displayed in the other halls.

At Crown Point, the Choir participated in the Choral Festival, and in April the complete Choir competed in the Choir contest.

Several school records were broken and the team did remarkably well consider- ing the fact they dropped their first four to Portage, North Judson, Wirt, and Calumet. The Eagles evened their record to 4 and 4 with four straight wins, but finished the season on the downside by losing to Mishawaka-Marian. The Eagles will be losing the following seniors: Bill Ring, Jeff Martin, Monty Miller, Darrell Hampton, Mike Rubino, Hipolito Mojica, Mark Dwyer, Mike Douglas, Ed Mendez, Roger Ash, and Nick Novakovich. The coaching staff will be blessed with the following re- turning lettermen: Garry Szostek, Bob Huminik, Ron Dixon, Tom Hodge, John Rock, Pete Odinsoff, Clay Green, Jim Hinkle, Terry Barth, Buddy Faurote, John Mullen, and Roger Szostek. 1970 Varsity Football Team.

Following the talk, the Eagles pulled-off a 57—56 victory. The 1970-71 Varsity basketball final season record was 10 — 11. The Eagles went from a loss to Hobart, at the begin- ning of the season, to a loss against E. C. Washington in the first game of the sectionals. The final score against Washington was 71—39, with Tom Butler scoring 32 of East Gary’s 39 points. Two of the Eagles’ highlights came during the East Gary Holiday Tournament.

Center-fielder Mike Rubino catches his breath after stretching a double into a three-bagger. A home-run bound ball is hit by Mike Rubino. Interest on the bench blooms during the Eagle half of the inning. Coach Art Hartley was pleased with the season record of 16 — 3—1. The Fighting Eagles baseball team of 1970 had one of its best seasons ever, 16 — 3. The Eagles averaged 7 runs per game while yielding an average of 3 runs.

The class of “71” can trace its progress through the years from lonely freshmen to the superior status of seniors. Leaders the past year were Bettie Moore, president; Mi- chelle Shimel, vice-president; Doug Twilla, secretary; Brenda Rock, treasurer; Peggy Honkoski, girl representa- tive; and Mike Rubino, boy representative. The seniors began the year constructing the homecoming float which placed first in the float competition. The E- Men nominated five attractive young ladies to reign over the homecoming procedings. Some of the highlights of high school days were changes in the dress code, ordering class rings, getting ready for the prom, the post prom, senior pictures, competition for class status, and above all, the many friendships that will linger. The seniors leave, but the chant of “71” will echo in the halls and will always be remembered. The Senior Homeroom Representatives are Laura Bellar, Pam Hoyt, The Winning Senior Float was better known " As the Spit Turns the Karen Cook, Debbie Templeton, Janet Wolfe, and Nick Novakovich.

Homeroom representatives are Kenny Flores, Martha Williams, Karen Kingery, Denise Potts, and Bob Humenik. Ready to face change, the juniors approached the begin- ning of the school year with enthusiasm. Several projects including bake sales, car washes, as well as sock hops helped enlarge the treasury fund for the prom. The theme selected was “A Time for Us.” It was a very romantic evening for all attending. Planning to further education was the main decision of the year. Ability tests and applications had to be filed with colleges. Towards the close of the year, senior rank was anticipated by all. “Melt Them Down to Victory!” 127 Juniors Need Guidance in U.S. History Darlene Adams Dave Adkins Sandy Anderson Mark Argyelan Rick Ayala Sandy Dover Lorraine Ballard Marilyn Barnes Glen Batista Debbie Belt Debbie Beres Tom Berger Terese Bianco Judy Blackburn Bill Blossom Georgette Blystone Pat Bobrowski Greg Bowen Teena Bowen Stephen Brown Joan Buchannan Sherie Buchanan Alice Bundy Mike Burdett Brenda Cannon Tim Cannon A1 Childers Sue Clay Randy Cleveland Wally Coffman Sue Comstock Don Coveli Robin Cox Fred D’Aloisio Jeff Darnell Crisis in the Classroom with Mr. Bodnar 128 The main purpose of high school is learning Barb Darosky John Davis James Derr Ron Dixon Bob Dobrowski Alan Donahoo Bill Dooley Debbie Duncan Sandy Dunn Dale Ellis Dewayne Ellis Anna Ennis Bill Evens Gary Feczko Jana Filipas Ken Flores A1 Follow Mark Garzella Margarete Gee Dennis George Darlene Gillette Ken Gish Rebecca Goldsmith Kim Goodreau Clay Green Alex Gregory Scott Grishka Millie Grochowski Rich Hack Hank Hammond Darrell Hamilton Martin Handley Dave Havard Darrel Heflin Larry Henninger Harry Hennings Debbie Henry Randy Hiller Vickie Hinke James Hinkle Tom Hodge Karen Holland 129 Juniors Progress Forward in Sports Dan Hoblein Pam Holliday Shellie Holman Peg Homyak Pam Hoskins Donna Huges Bb Humenik Cebra Johnson Karen Kingery Don Knox Ken Kozaites Jim Koziol Mike Kranyak James Krochn Terri Lee Mike Lewandowski Sandy Lindsey LuAnn Long Bill Luna Lynette Mantta Chrystal Martin Tom Mayoch Bob Maza Ann Marie Mazure Wanda McDanial Doris Mercier Elizabeth Miller Nancy Mojica Maureen Moreau Terry Moore LaFonda Morrill John Mucha Mike Nicholson Chuck Nixon Joann Novkovic We don’t mess around! 130 Jerry O’Daniel Roxanne Odar Kandy O ' Day Pete Odinsoff Matt Oresik Frances O’Rourke Barb Parker John Paterson Tony Paxton Rick Picka Kathy Pilnock Denise Potts Jerry Puent C.

Class of 73’ display thier talents. The sophomore realizes that work as well as play is re- quired in school. New status brings on new responsibilities. Choosing a career and taking courses that will aid their future are two responsibilities. Ordering classrings, going to sock hops, attending atheltic events, and G.A.A. initiation, without being the initiated were some of the good times. There were bad times too, but they will soon be forgotten. Home room representatives are Cathy Bayer, Joel Martin, Art Hartley, Trudy Rosser, Margene Kurpis, Steve Strinchack, John Ramsey, Larry Courtney. 132 Lunch hour is enjoyed by the Sophomores after many hours of tedious work.

For the freshmen it was a year to remember . . . initiation comprised of pigtails, simulated freckles and cut-off pants; getting used to new teachers; joining new and different clubs; and making new friends. The adjustments came slowly, but soon the freshmen were old hands at the hectic procedures of activities and ad- vanced academics became second nature. Freshman class officers left to right are: Dan Duffy (pres), Mary Nov- kovic (vice-pres), Regina Haney (treas), Sandy Cannon (girl-rep), Loi s Eaton (sec), and (not pictured), Dave Duffy (boy-rep). The Victory Bell of the Freshmen rang success for the Fighting Eagles. Homeroom representatives are Kathy Travis, Sally Lundy, Ted Watts, and Jim Ring.
