TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 2 Academics 16 I t M. L � w ,t: V i, re h : C u o C t THE THORNLEY COURT The Thornley Court, which is located in the B wing of the school, was named for Willard C. Thornley, the first assistant principal of Edsel Ford High School. Mr. Thornley, who was liked and respected by all who knew him, was devoted to nature and wildlife. He contributed freely of his own time and money to the development of the B court area. Upon his death in 1963, this area was formally dedicated to his memory. There are over fifty varieties of trees and shrubs in this court. Many of them have been donated by student groups, individuals, and business establishments. Some of the shrubs were also purchased from gift certificates after Edsel Ford won several City Clean-up Contests. Perhaps most noticeable in the court are the many beautiful fowl, all of which have been donated by students and other contributors. The birds nest in the court, and every spring the court features new generations of wild fowl. The birds roost in the trees or in the shelter at night, and swim in the pond by day. They are a constant source of interest to the students, staff, and visitors. The maintenance of the court and the care and feeding of the birds is assumed by the biology classes, other interested students and members of the maintenance staff, under the direction of Mr. Herman Boatin. It is through their untiring parience and devotion that the area has flourished and grown. Of all the traditions at Edsel Ford High School, the Thornley Court is one of the most beloved. Homecoming 78 This year’s Homecoming, held Friday, October 13, proved to be a “lucky day’’ for homecoming queen Betsy Eastman and her escort. Bill Fluharty. Included in the court were Eve Hudacek, Sherri Davis, Jaye Gumkowski, and Mary Trapp. Their escorts included Pete Ausum, Mike Bruy- ere. Will Hill, and Bill Leverenz. Mayor John B. O’Reilly was the Master of Ceremonies, shown here congratulating Betsy. There were two entries in this year’s float contest. The senior theme was “Kick the Bulldogs,’’ and the junior float, aided bv a number of sophomores, was built around the theme “Put ‘em in Their Place.’’ The junior float float won the contest. For the first time at Edsel, there was a banner contest. Many colorful designs were submitted, and the Tri-M banner won the first award.

ADMINISTRATION Edsel Boasts Experienced Administration Edsel Ford’s Administrators, including Principal Harry T. Faull and Assistant Principals Ronald R. Doherty and Graham O. Porter, have now completed three years of co-work as the school’s top officials. These three years of cooperation have resulted in an efficient and effective operation. Aiding immeasurably were secretaries Dorothy Kurtz, Beverly Bazzy, Olga Sabon, Mae Davis, Loretta Carmichael, and Loraine Young. Assistant Principal Doherty supervi- ses student affairs and conduct, while Assistant Principal Porter is in charge of scheduling. Principal Harry T. Faull directs the entire operation.

ART The Creative Influence Edsel Ford students have a chance to express their ideas and demonstrate their creativity with the guidance of very capable instructors. The Edsel Ford Art Department is headed by Mr. Ralph Hashoian aided by Mr. Robert Leveque'and Mr. Grant MacKenzie. The art department slogan is “You Gotta Have Art,” and the highlight of the year is the annual Art Show held in the spring, sponsored by the Art Club. FAR LEFT: Mr. Hashoian teaches stud- ents art through film. UPPER LEFT: Mr. Grant MacKenzie interests students with art fundamentals. LOWER LEFT: Diane Agin dreams of being a famous artist.

BUSINESS Students Seek Business Opportunities The business department offers Edsel Ford students many opportunities. Thirty-six percent of all seniors take advantage of the cooperative education program.and many more are involved in the various business classes. These classes include Distributive Education, Bookkeeping, Office Management, and Typing. On-the- job experience is presented to several students in the form of the school store, the inimitable T-Bird Tunnel. FAR LEFT: Students at work in Distributive Education.

ENGLISH HUMANITIES Preparation for the Future Humanities is the branch of learning that deals with human thought and culture. The term was applied originally to the study of literature in classical Greece and Rome. It has since been expanded to cover the literature of all countries, and also their arts and philosophies. The most important reason for the existence of the humanities program at Edsel Ford, according to Mr. Brown is, “to help students of able ability levels prepare for their futures.” There are many benefits to be gained from this program. It helps students understand not only themselves but also the world in which they live,” states Mrs. Maria Lindsay. The greatest benefit of the program is the fact that “students are exposed to many great thinkers of the past in many different areas,” continues Mr. Brown. The head of the English department, Mr. Martin Holtgrieve, adds. “One of the greatest benefits of our program is its organization.” Most of the teachers feel that the program is set up so that all the materials are constantly being evaluated in order to keep the program up to date. All of the teachers seem to find it an enjoyable course to teach as long as the student wants to increase his knowledge. Most graduates who have been through the six semester Edsel English Humanities program praise it because of the way it prepared them for college. TOP: Mr. Holtgrieve gives constructive criticism.

Students entering their First semester are indoctrinated with a unit on the school’s rules, regulations, and policy. The first year is completed by a course in reading improvement. Second year students participate in a unit on psychology, and seniors are presented options dealing with post-high school decisions during their third year in the program. The areas of study in the senior year include college and career planning and com- parisons of differing lifestyles. Human Relations is provided to students on an alternating basts with Physical Edu- cation, and is dedicated to the develop- ment of each student’s full potential. 28 ABOVE: Mr. Adams toils over a student's problem.

The courses offered at Edsel include French, Spanish, and German. In order to give each student a taste of the culture of the country whose Language is being stud ied , each class also sponsors its own club. Many students take advantage of these class- es, and some even go to Deaborn High School for more advanced classes. The head of the department is French teacher Mrs. Virginia Waldinger, Mr. Eduard Skendzel instructs students in Spanish, while Mrs. Jan Leslie teaches German. Mr. James Ankenbrandt teaches Latin at Dearborn High School. BOTTOM LEFT: Mr. Ankenbrandt ins- tructs his Latin class. TOP LEFT: Eduard Tito Skendzel, Edsel's beloved Spanish teacher.

One semester of math is required of every student at Edsel. and those who are not mathema- tically inclined may take Consumer Math in their senior year to fulfill this requirement. Students with greater mathematical background may take courses ranging from algebra to pre-cal- culus. Far Right, Bottom: Mrs. Major agonizes over student grades.

The groups put on free concerts throughout the year,and those who attend agree they are well worth hearing. 36 MUSIC Instrumental Music Gets New Leader 37 Vocal Music Shows Much Promise The Vocal Music- Department, headed by Mr. Jesse Young, con- sists of various groups including the Choir, the Concert Choir, and the Vocal Ensemble. These sections perform all types of music ranging from rock to classical. During the year they visit schools all over Dearborn and perform for them. They also hold Pop Concerts at Edsel, and these concerts are always well received. TOP: This year's Vocal Ensemble. BOTTOM: A normal practice session before school.

Two major changes in the physical education department are the addition of co-ed gym classes and the use of elective activities. Co-ed gym classes have been made a law in Michigan schools. This law provides a greater competitive atmosphere between the two sexes. The other new idea now being used is the right to choose physical education activities. At the beginning of each semester, the student chooses a group of activities in which he participates on a rotating basis. 40 I®®� COUNTER CLOCKWISE FROM ABOVE: Mrs. Calvisi leads students through a rigorous workout; Mr. Schultz, baseball coach; Mrs. Eloff, caught with her whistle down; Pat “give me thirty” Wyka planning today's activities; Mrs. Calvisi making an important phone call; An Edsel Ford tradition, the towel thrower; Another Phys.

The courses in this department include Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Horticulture, Photography, and Natural Science. An important element of the science program is Thornlcy Court, a feature which is unique to Edsel Ford. The court contains examples of many varied types of flora and fauna, including a wide variety of birds. Students and visitors are afforded the opportunity of studying a wide range of wildlife in a natural but contained setting. For those students who are even more interested in the sciences, there are special clubs which meet outside of school hours. The science department has a staff ofj well trained instructors who do their best to offer a worthwhile learning experience. 42 OPPOSITE PAGE,FAR LEFT: Mr. Risto changing into Dr. Jekyl.

SOCIAL STUDIES Society in Perspective Social Studies has long been an intergral part of Edsel Ford’s three year program. Students are required to take social studies in five of their six semesters at Edsel. There are also elective courses for those who wish to pursue this area of study further. Students entering the program are instruced in the basics of anthropology. The following two semesters are devot- ed to the study of American history. The fourth semester of study is an analysis of the American governmental system,and our economic system is studied in the fifth unit of the course. Sixth-unit electives include Sociology, Cultural Geography,and Images of Asia. ■ OPPOSITE PAGE, BOTTOM: Students enjoy social class. TOP: Ms. Susan Nagy teaches a captive audience.

Edsel Ford has a fine program that readies young adults for their careers. This program includes such fields as Woodworking, Electronics, Drafting, Printing, and Metal Fabricating. The department is headed by Mr. James Valandegend, the Metal Fab.teacher. Edsel Ford offers an extensive Special Education program,which includes Car- eer Education for Handicapped Adults. The unique program is designed to help mentally and physically handicapped adults to learn skills and trades,so as to be able to function in society. Mr. Mohamed Sion and Mr. Bob Roomer are the instructors in this vital education program. OPPOSITE PAGE, TOP: Mr. Vanlandeg- end, head of the Industrial Department.

Two s ignificantadditions have been made to the Bolt this year. In her first year at Edsel, Mrs. Lindsay has taken over as the staff advisor. Mrs. Lindsay has re-introduced the Monthly Review magazine, which began last year under former advisor Edward Fryzel. The newstaff will produce the monthly magazine along witihthe weekly Bolt.

News editor is Mark Smith. 57 Sophomores Join Cheerleading Squads Through the past few years a larger and more enthusiastic crowd has been attracted to the sports events. A major part of the attraction is due to the cheerleading squads.the Thunderettes and the Major- ettes. Many changes were made this year which improved the performance of all squads. This year the sophomore girls were allowed to try out for the four cheerleading squads and the results were tremendous. The basketball squad received help from guys who served as “lifters.” This. too. was quite successful. Something new was added to the Thunderettes’ half-time performance. A light routine was performed with the added attraction of a majorette twirling a lighted baton. The reaction of the crowd was terrific. Mrs. Lee McFarlin.the coach of the squads,put forth her efforts to make these successful changes. Her work along with all of the girls, is greatly appreciated.

This project was very successful and greatly appreciated by the hospital. The club also ran the concession at the Dearborn-Edsel Ford basketball game. The Booster Club had senior T-Shirts as a project. The T-Shirts had the names of all of the seniors imprinted on the f ont. The club also ran concession stands and raised the spirits of all Edsel students during sporting events. 60 TOP: This year's Booster Club with sponsor Mr. Joseph MacGuire.

Debate and Forensics Popular at Edsel The Debate and Forensics clubs continue to be among the most popular here at Edsel Ford. While guiding students in public speaking, it also gives them the opportunity to have fun. Due to increasing costs, the debate team traveled to fewer tournaments, but Mrs. Lee McFarlin, adviser for both clubs, says that the forensics team will travel to more tournaments than last year’s squad. Though both Forensics and Debate lost some fine senior members who sparked last year’s team, the crop of new novice debaters more than makes up for it. Mrs. McFarlin was especially pleased with these novice debaters and hopes to send some to debate institutes over the summer to sharpen their skills. She also expects some excellent new novice forensics members. Edsel Ford has always been a competitive force in the Debate and Forensics Leagues, and with many returning members for next year’s squadsythey have the potential to be one of the top teams.

The new advisor is Mrs. Maria Lindsay, a former Journalism and English teacher at Bryant Junior High School. Mrs. Lindsay says that she enjoys the challenge in producing the Edsel Ford yearbook and working with the fine student staff. A specialty of the yearbook this year is name engraving on the front cover. This new feature is a first in Flight history and many students have taken advantage of the opportunity. Also, the introduction to the Flight is in color for the second year in a row, adding a touch of class to the yearbook.

Two students were sent abroad on the A.F.S. program, senior Tom Van Order and Edsel graduate Alexa Burton. Tom went to Italy and Alexa visited England. The club also made plans for a short-term exchange which would send ten Edsel students to an Alpena school and bring ten Alpena students for a visit to Edsel. A.F.S. was also kept busy by having a holly sale and making a homecoming banner. The German Club also had a busy year. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Jan Leslie, the club made cross-country and downhill ski trips and went horseback riding and canoeing. Besides these activities, the German Club went to various elementary and junior high schools and performed German folk dances, folk singing, and did skits for the students. A new language club at Edsel was the French-Spanish Club, comprised of French and Spanish students, and sponsored by Miss Virginia Waldinger. Club members sold T-shirts, and they made a trip to the Detroit Institute of Art to study French painting. They look forward to many more years of activity._______________ rench Spanisl lubT IRS ROW ROMTlEF O1 TBEH Lisa1 Drozdowski, Bonnie Kidd, Michelle Burkett, Carlos Bianco-Villa, and Kelly Paisley.

Librarian Ms. Elizabeth Lee stated that the staff had been cut 50% and that some magazines had to be dropped due to the lack of funds. Also, no new equipment was purchased this year. Student vandalism became something of a problem with many of the record player needles being stolen or damaged, which caused audio services to be almost completely stopped. With less library personal, it was harder to guard against any vandalism. The librarians .are hoping that next year some of the library services will be restored. mutt mis MttllOOCS- MM1 mini iac s hi m 1 sw 72 Left: Part of the duties of the Media Training students is shelving.

Carlos Blanco Villa, form Madrid, Spain, enjoyed Edsel and meeting new people. Carlos took an active role in the French and Spanish clubs, and he was a member of the National Honor Society and the swim team. Both Carlos and Cassie learned how to drive while at Edsel. Their stay here as part of the AFS program was not only a tremendous experience for them, but for all who met them.

The main purpose of all the festivities is to get students in the mood for the upcoming basketball game with Dearborn High. The idea of eating cake on the day of the game symbolizes the T-Birds defeating the “cakes from DHS.

TheT-Birdsgot off to a fast start by defeating highly regarded cross-city rival Forson and a host of Sub-8 opponents. Thus, the season started with a perfect 4-0. Bad luck, however, soon fell upon the gridiron men as they came back to earth after losing to state-ranked Trenton. This loss ended all play-off hopes; yet the T-Birds continued to play with enthusiasm and spirit. They finished the season with a 22-0 victory over Plymouth Canton. 14 Fordson 12 13 Allen Park 8 22 Belleville 0 14 Redford 7 0 Trenton 18 41 Bentley 0 8 Salem 22 0 Dearborn 19 22 Canton 0 Upper left: Edsel’s defense makes another gang tackle; upper right: Jamie Bedenis calling his own plays; middle left Edsel's offensive line before the snap of the ball; lower left: Wendel Hardin on a PAT.

The team’s best performance came midway through the season as they easily handled the Trenton Trojans 31-15. The team’s MVP, Matt Mattem, aided the T-Bird attack with four touchdowns. The squad was coached by Roger Cox, who was assisted by Mark Shooshanian. Coach Shoosha- nian, coaching his first year here at Edsel, commented, ‘‘This year’s success can be attributed to the overall attitude of the team.’ He added that he enjoyed coaching such a successful team and hopes to see more triumphs from each player in their next two years at Edsel Ford.

Records Fall as Swimmers Work Toward Improvement Under the fresh leadership of swim coach Mr. Pat O’Hara, the girl swimmers looked and performed like a new squad. Edsel was fourth in the league and placed 13th in the state meet. The hard working T-Birds moved up two places from last season in the league standings, and numerous new school records were established. Sophomore Penny Currie broke three school records in the 200 yd. I.M., 100 yd. backstroke and the 500 yd. freestyle. This all-city swimmer was also fourth and seventh in the state meet in both the 500 and 200 freestyles, as well as league champ in both events. Junior Karen Enneking broke her old school record in the 100 yd. breaststroke with a time of 1:10.3. She placed fourth in the state in the breaststroke and was named to the all-city team for her efforts. The 200 medley relay team consisting of Sandy Burke, Karen Enneking, Maureen Burke, and Penny Currie swam their way to a league title and a new school record.

The Edsel Ford Girls tennis season of 1978 proved to be a good one. The participants put forth a great deal of time and effort to make the team successful. They began as an inexperienced, underdeveloped team, yet accomplished a great feat, and finished the season as a strong unified team. The E.F. girls tennis team tied with Livonia Churchill for 4th place in the 1978 Regionals, only behind Dearborn,Fordson and Stevenson. Two Edsel Ford players excelled in the Regionals, Carol Nigel and Mary Kilpatrick Both participated in the final round. Car'� ! Nigel was also the sole individual on EdsePs team to make it to the finals of the league meet . The captains of the 1978 season were Lori Wash and Kim Davis. Although the season included many rainouts, the team overcame this unfortunate handicap and played exceptional tennis. For their overall and outstanding efforts Kim Davis received the Most Improved Player and Lori Wash received Most Valuable Player award for the the 1978 season. UPPER HALF, LEFT-RIGHT:Senior co-captain Kim Davis helped bring the team together with leadership; she played top doubles with partner Karen Lutz.

Under direction of Ms. Irma Calvisi and Mrs. Carole Eloff, the Thunderbirds ended with a 3-5 record. Edsel's victories came over Ann Arbor Huron, Fordson, and the Academy of Sacred Heart. E.F. defeated Huron 3-1 in the second game of the year, but the Fordson victory was not achieved until four games later. The real thrill and a sign of progress came when Edsel outplayed Sacred Heart, 2-0. Total team effort is very important in field hockey, anc Edsel showed good team work in this very competitive league. Some of the spirit can be traced back to the new- kilts the girls wore for the first time in the school’s history. Individually, Char Pingston was voted the most valuable player of the team, while Sylvia Schumann received the honor of most improved player. Kathy Karakula scored the most goals for the team and completed a fine season of play. Two year goal tender Bea Joyce finished another successful year of net minding, giving Edsel the opportunity to win those games. The junior varsity tearn lead by Mrs. Eloff, also experienced success. The J.V’s won four games and tied another for a 4-1-3 record. Carla Russo olayed very well for the J.V.’s. With a strong J.V. squad and returning varsitv players such as Lynn Chiesa, Ann Plucinsky, andTanya VanOrder, the girls’ field hockey team in their newly fitted kilts will be on the road to even greater success.

Hiunderbirds win Three of the Big Four The 1978 Thunderbird cross country team ran their way to a very successful season, under coach Arnold “Skip” Domke. For the first time in the school’s history, the harriers brought to Edsel the city, league, and regional championships. The T-Birds have not won the city title in several years; however, the league championship was the third in a row and theirophy was retired to the school. The regional victory was one’ of the most dominating wins in recent years and the first for Edsel in over 15 years. In the Thunderbirds bid for the state title, they came up short of their hopes in 13th place. The cross country team was led by all-stater Bill Fluharty, who ran the fastest time ever by an Edsel harrier (15:01.1). Fluharty was the Sub 8 champion and was runner up in the regionals. For his fine efforts he was named the most valuable runner of the season. Senior Greg Rippeywasvoted the most improved runner. In his three year harrier career, Rippey came a long way earning a spot on the all city and all league squads. A severe blow to the harriers was a broken leg suffered by senior Jeff Stassen during the state meet, but prior efforts enabled him to earn all city and all league honors. , Stassen ran the second fastest time for the T-Birds this year, 15.28. Three year veteran Mike Bruyere had his best season of all and he was named all league. Pete Ausum, a three year veteran, had some physical problems and was not able to be in top form during the 1978 season. In Ausum’s sophomore and junior years he was a valuable asset to the team, running in both state meets for Edsel. John Rodriquez was the top underclassmen runner, posting a time of 16:04. Rodriquez ran the fourth fastest time on the team, and was named to the all-city team. Rodriguez, along with Charlie Peruski and Rob Fluharty were named captains of the 1979 cross country team. John Krizmanich showed much improvement this year and was Edsel’s 5tl. man in the State meet. Krizmanich along with promising sophomores Rick Salt and Brian Dahl will strengthen next years’ team. Upper Half, left: Senior Greg Rippey shows great determination, which earned him 35th place in the state meet, and numerous other honors.

Nearly every match was close, including a disappointing one-stroke loss to Dearborn High. Most Valuble Golfer Tom Yurmanovic was top Thunderbird golfer this year with a 39.6 stroke average. Jim Zimmerman had the second lowest average with a 42.6 stroke average and was an important factor inall matches. Giving other solid performances during the year were senior Kevin Holden, Juniors Jim Brailean and Darryl Bartlett, and sophomore Tom Thomas. Next year, Coach Risto will have a little rebuilding to do, and the team should have the potential to pose a challenge for a championship.

Kneeling: Jamie Bedenis,Bruce Nabozny. The Thunderbird cagers, led by 4th year coach Mike Dapprich, finished the regular season with a disappointing 9-11 record. Although they played good basketball all season, the T-Birds went up against a group of top teams. Seniors Jamie Bedenis and Kevin Betz both had fine seasons. Both played heads up basketball, Bedenis being a fine playmaker and crafty scorer, while scoring from explosive long shots. Talented senior Bruce Nabozny was the sparkplug of the team, but an injury sidelined him for the end of the season. Nabozny made 2nd team All-League and Bedenis made honorable mention. Juniors Rodney Armstrong and Dave Stumbo turned in many strong performances while seeing a lot of playing time. Sophomore Dave Shymanski was also a very reliable scorer and a good team player. With these three definite starting players next year and with some of the J.V. players coming into the varsity ranks, Edsel should have a very strong team next year. The junior varsity completed a fine season, including two victories over Dearborn High. Several of the players had fine seasons and should be an asset to the varsity team next year.

Edsel’s tri-captains for the season were Rick Currie, Scott Apple and Paul Skupinski.

The team was coached by Mrs. Debby Peplinski, a physical ed. teacher and gymnist. Although the team competed in some thirteen dual meets, Edsel will not be considered in a league until the 1980 season. Led by senior captain Cathy Clark and junior Lynn Colenso, Edsel was well represented in competition. The two all around gymnists qualified for the regionals in the beam and floor exercise, respectively.

Mr. Robert Roemer, who successfully led the team in his first year as coach, is back again at the helm. The team boasts two returning all league players in seniors Bonnie Lis and Barb Auxier. These two players should be the sparkplugs for the softballers this year. Other returning seniors include Sue Polinski and Debbie Swift.

The 1979 Thunderbirds are a team that he has planned and hoped for a long time. The T-Birds have the potential to be one of the best teams in Edsel's fine tennis histv ry. Last year’s regional champions will have many experienced seniors and juniors from last season. Led by three year netter Jeff Stassen, who has played the top spot both his sophomore and junior years for Edsel, has represented them well. Mike Richard s is Edsel’s other three year varsity tennis player. Richard s’experience and team leadership makes him a major asset for the Thunderbirds. Junior Alan Amici is consistent, plays smart tennis, and strengthens the singles department. Senior Mark Toth and Junior Rob Waldron round out Edsel’s singles players with good depth. The doubles are paced by senior Don Dobrovich, Edsel’s premier doubles player. The T-Birds host a talented team of doubles players such as Ray Touminen, Dave Raymond. Dave Loula, Dave Drabek and Scott Leggat. Juniors Mike Davies, Darryl Paputa, Chuck Davis, Griffith Meredith, and sophomore Chris Colovas add great depth to the squad. Junior varsity coacn Ken Goebel coaches a good group of sophomore tennis players, giving them hard work-outs and practices.

Students perform all layout, photography, paste-up, and type-setting duties. The only professional assistance given is in the senior and underclass portraits. The FLIGHT staff is proud to say that this is entirely our production. I Mrs. Maria Lindsay 3 191 All to myself I think of you, Think of the things we used to do, Think of the things we used to say, Think of each happy bygone day, Sometimes I sigh, and sometimes I smile, But I keep each olden, golden while All to myself.
