As such, October 6 was hat and shades day, crazy chapeaus and dark sunglasses. Tuesday, the difference showed between seniors and underclassmen — seniors dressed up in favorite outfits and underclassmen wore their favorite sweats. Wednesday was inside out and backwards day. Leah Anger was the talk of the school, wearing her overalls inside out and backwards. Thursday was wig and hair day. Some of the craziest wigs were displayed, as shown by Bekkie O’Shesky, Leah Anger, and Sharon Stice. Friday ended Spirit Week with Black White day. Painted faces and school colors displayed Edsel Ford school spirit. A pep rally was given by the Student Coordinating Council before the football game against the Ypsilanti Braves. There was heavy participation by students on Black and White day. What a way to end the week! 7 00 Anger Achieves All After 26 consecutive days of rain, sunshine arrived on October 10, in time for Homecoming ‘86. Homecoming continued a tradition with a football game and a senior court ceremony, at which time the queen was announced. Senior Leah Angerf nominee from the Spanish Club, was declared winner at half-time. She was elected from a court consisting of seniors Amy Agius, Nikki Florence, Susan Kitchen and Dawn Sabuda. Anger's escort was Lee Hunt. Robert Haffey, Doug Langley, Craig McCardell and Francis Palardy escorted the remaining court. Half-time consisted of ceremonial activities, including Jackie Tithof’s crowning of Anger. The ceremony was followed by a presentation of senior and junior floats, with seniors winning the honors for this event. Theirs was a T-Bird eating a Brave’s player. A special thanks went to Dave Sierota and Steve Purvis-Smith for their dedication in finishing the senior float. The Spanish Club was successful, also, since they won first place for their banner showing T-Bird conquistadores. 10 11 Outrageousness 12 Ordinary???? Edsel Introduces Additions in Staff Members While roaming around the hallways, you may have noticed some new faces-- faces not of freshmen, but of teachers and administrators.

The deadline came before the workers and district could reach agreement on a new contract. Dearborn Public Schools were left without bus drivers, food service workers, custodians, and secretaries. The parents of students were informed that the buses would not be running or hot lunches being served while the basic custodial duties were taken over by the district’s engineers who work under a separate union. The strike lasted eight school days. Near the end, the union stated it would return to work if the district would agree to binding arbitration. On Dec. 11, a tentative agreement was reached and the union was back to work the next morning. THIS PAGE: UPPER LEFT: Havn’t you ever counted holes when you were bored?

The Edsel Ford Industrial Arts Department has a variety of classes to offer its students practical experience related directly to industry. Some of these classes offered are welding, drafting, electronics, machine shop, auto shop and graphic arts. There is no pre-experience necessary to take these classes and they may be taken for six semesters. The classes are offered as beginner courses, leading up to the advanced ones. The goal of the Industrial Arts Department is to show how a particular skill is related to the field of industry as a whole. Edsel Ford is obtaining this goal by using the available sources to further the knowledge of its students. “Having a positive attitude is the only way to face things in life!” quoted Mr. Robert Dietzler, graphic arts teacher at Edsel Ford for six years. He believes Edsel Ford is “a great school with a great staff. He also thinks the new teachers are a positive point for the school environment and sees them as adding greatly to the school atmosphere. “You need a mixture of old and new teachers, and we now have that at Edsel Ford,” he commented. This very busy individual does extensive printing for the school newspaper, the Bolt. He also works hard on the newsletters that get sent home, the PFSO news bulletins, and programs for concerts, plays, and other school functions. Mr. Dietzler graduated from Fordson High School, went on to Henry Ford Community College, and then Wayne State University. He taught at Dearborn High School for 13 years prior to Edsel Ford. “School is like a training camp, prepar- ing one for life. Take advantage of itl Be positive and like people; that is the key, this print shop teacher concluded. THIS PAGE: UPPER LEFT: Brad Doner, 12, constructing plans for the Watergate School of Business.

At times it can be very frustrating and overwhelming; however, more often than not, teaching high school students can be challenging, stimulating, and rewarding,” summarized Mr. Ronald Stuart, English Humanities teacher at Edsel Ford. In addition to teaching the twelfth grade English Hu- manities program, he also teaches night school at Henry Ford Community College. As a graduate of Fordson High School, Mr. Stuart continued his education at Wayne State University. He is presently working on a Master’s Degree at Wayne State. His B.A. degree is in English and Humanities. Stuart spends a lot of his free time bowling, having participated for about 17 years. His overall average is 191. He has bowled in the Dearborn Schoolmen’s League for a number of years and has bowled against other teachers in this school. Also, Mr. Stuart stated, “I have never challenged Mr. Bergen; however, I would welcome an opportunity to bowl with (or against) him. “In addition to bowling, 1 enjoy playing softball in the summer. I also enjoy reading and drawing,” continued Mr. Stuart. He also enjoys concerts and attending plays with his wife. Additionally, he spends a great deal of time with his son and two daughters. Edsel Ford teachers and students speak with pride of Edsel’s unique English-Humanities program. This un- usual course consists of studying English for three days, one day is dedicated to art, and one day is devoted to music per week. While ninth-grade classes learn basic English, the English-Humanities program starts in tenth grade. English classes teach significance of both the literary style and the English language. Students review certain novel- ists, short-story writers and playwrights. English Humanities OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP LEFT: Kirstein Gibson, 10, and Jennifer Jackson,ll, smile for the camera.

Human Relations assists students now and in the future. Couselors give guidance in setting and obtaining goals and im- proving attitudes and values. The Human Relations program involves all grade levels. Freshmen acquaint themselves with each other and draft out their four- year schedule. Sophomores study behavior patterns and learn about group w'ork. Juniors report on occupa- tional fields of interest and begin collecting informa- tion about colleges. Finally, seniors acquire knowledge about taxes, marriage and college. Human Relations en- ables students to become acquainted with their school, their classmates and themselves. Further- more, Human Relations in- spires students to learn more about their society wrhich strengthens their values to become a more knowledgable and valuable citizen. Slaughter Supports Who is that lady counseling students down in the guidance office? Why, that is Mrs. Jean Slaughter, counselor and Hu- man Relations teacher at Edsel. She also has been involved in teaching English at Stout, Nowlin, Duvall and Lindbcrg. After graduating from Dearborn High School, she continued her education at Hillsdale College for her B.A.. She obtained her Master’s through credit hours at both Eastern and the University of Michigan. Her talent is singing opera; she has sung with the Michigan Opera and has also done some work with Mr. Robert Morency. On May 6,9, and 13, Mrs. Slaughter will be fulfilling a lifelong dream. She will sing in the chorus of her favorite opera, Tosca. It is her favorite opera because of the powerful music and theme. Productions in which Mrs. Slaughter has participated include “ Turandot ” at the Masonic Temple and “Orpheus” at the Fisher. She became interested in opera through an English Humanities program at Dearborn High School. Also, in high school she was interested in piano, acting and singing. In her free time she also enjoys playing golf. 27 Reciting Shakespeare Mr. Neil Brown, English Humanities teacher at Edsel Ford, also teaches drama. Mr. Brown directs all of the school plays and sponsors the EF troupe of Thespians, an international dramatic honors club. Thespian activities include trips to Strat- ford-on-Avon, Canada, to see plays. Mr. Brown also sponsors and chaperons EF’s Thespian representatives at the Annual International Thespian Convention at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. He said,“Ball State is an excellent learning experience for students. It is cultural as well as social and educational.’' Apart from school Mr. Brown enjoys attending plays, sporting events, traveling and dealing in antiques.

The Edsel Ford English Department is offering many electives to its students. These classes give students a chance to experience a variety of different areas. Mr. Neil Brown teaches two classes which involve learning to act, direct and produce dramatic productions. They are Play Production and Act- ing and Directing. Miss Anne Gautreau teach- es Leadership Training. This class is comprised of class officers and representatives. Students organize school activ- ities, such as dances and pep rallies, and learn leadership qualities, including how to take charge in a given situa- tion. Miss Gautreau also teaches Film Study, whereby students learn to interpret popular and current films, and offer critiques on them. Mr. Duane Machak teaches Speech, Debate and Forensics classes. Students gain exper- ience in public speaking through these classes. Mrs. Maria Lindsay opens the door of print journalism to students who wish to take Introduction to Journalism I and II. Upon completion of these classes students may continue on to Newstaff and Yearbook production. PACE, Providing Alternate Choices in Education, is taught by Mr. A1 Harris. Mr. James Wimshurst, Mr. David Balfour, Mr. Chase Harrison, Mr. Lynn Langley and Mrs. Beverly Reiter. The purpose of PACE is to teach and help students who have difficulty in English and social studies class. 28 Foreign Languages Foreign languages at Edsel consist of German, French and Spanish. Mrs. Jan Vandenburg teaches Ger- man, beginning with students learn- ing the alphabet. Mr. Robert Morency guides the Spanish section and puts emphasis on speaking. Mrs. Virginia Waldinger teaches French and also emphasizes speech patterns. Foreign languages are vital to a student's education. As in past years, one of the classes takes a trip to its native country. This year the German class is going to Germany, a good way for students to improve their vocabulary. Frau VanDenberg Mrs. Jan VanDenberg is one of Edsel Ford High School’s veteran teachers. She joined the staff as a music teacher, and today she teaches German. She is known to her students as Frau. Frau has as extensive background in languages. During high school she studied German and Spanish and “after school” it was Italian. After high school, she “college hopped” attending Purdue. Indiana University, the Mozarteum in Salzburg, the University of Kansas. Stanford, the University of Plagenfurt in Austria. Frau received two Bachlor’s Degrees from the University of Miami, one in Music Education and the other in Fine Arts. She also has a Master’s in German language and literature. At Edsel Frau has taught English, German and all levels of the Music Humanities program; but her teaching hasn’t been limited to just Edsel. For a year she taught English in Germany. Frau related some of her experiences in Germany. “At the time schools over there were just beginning to go co-ed. I taught in a school that was still all boys. “One of my classes had 48 twelve-year- old boys, all of them full of the dickens. They used to torment me at every opportunity. I had them just before they left school, so at 12:00 they would take a mirror and flash the sunlight into my eyes. I mean I would turn to the class and I was blinded. Another time they all ran over to the windows and jumped out. “There was one boy in particular who caused trouble, Hanz. The students had been learning Oxford English and thought it was funny to correct the American teacher. I had been teaching them to tell time, when Hanz. thinking he was being very smart, said. “Do you not mean to say half past three?” I turned to him and said, ‘Hanz. don’t you see how smart you can be? You can either say ‘It is half past three or you can say three-thirty.’ This helped to bring him under control.” Frau sponsors student trips to Germany almost every other year. She has sponsored 13 trips. Another trip is scheduled for this summer. 29 Harrison Provides Skills for the Ongoing Educational Process Mr. Chase Harrison, a native of Batavia, New York, and a teacher in the Dearborn school system for over 25 years, has devised an interesting approach to education through experience and wisdom. To quote Mr. Harrison, “Education is not just something someone receives in school at one time or at one place. It is a continuing process until the very end.” Because education is an ongoing process to the State University of New York graduate, he explained why he enjoyed teaching at the junior high level by stating, “I frequently had the same students in the ninth grade that I had in the seventh grade, and I enjoyed having students a second time around. They know you and you know them better and it gives you the opportu- nity to see the growth, mental growth, and the growth in academic skills that one presented in the seventh grade. “Just as I do here at Edsel. I teach ninth graders but also sophomores and juniors, £id then I can see if they are still using some of the skills they were presented, such as outlining and research papers.” Mr. Harrison, who originally planned to be a sociologist, commented on what led him to teach in the general field of social studies, “It is part of our heritage, a history per se, and I particulary like many of the areas covered such as sociology or political science, even geography. “I thoroughly enjoy sinking my teeth into world history or U.S. history, which I am teaching right now,” stated the former New Yorker on his current curriculum. He has also taught English and social studies to children of American servicemen in Germany. This gave him the opportu- nity to travel extensively throughout Europe and broaden his views of the world. Mr. Harrison’s philosophy on teaching can be summed up by saying that after a teacher presents the skills for learning, he must stimulate the students “to wish to pursue in similar areas. That, to me, is what teaching is all about.” Social Studies The social studies program at Edsel Ford provides students with a unique opportun- ity to learn about other cultures. The six required semesters of study provide the Edsel student with a broad background in American and other cul- tures. This background helps the student to better understand the world around him. Starting in a student’s freshman or sophomore year, he will learn about world history, from ancient Mesopotamia to the present. In the junior year he will learn in depth about America, its foundation, and history to the present time. In his senior year the student will study government and economics. Another class offered as an elective by the social studies department is sociology. Instructing Edsel students on their journey through history are: Mr. David Balfour, Mr. Tom Barrett, Mr. Robert Dillingham, Mr. John Gmitter, Mr. Michael Grenfell, Mr. Allen Harris, de- partment chairman, Mr. Chase Harrison, Mr. Lynn Langley and Mr. James Wims- hurst.

And how does an understanding of the laws of physics make life easier? These are just a few of the questions answered in the four semesters of science -equired for Edsel Ford students. Biology, chemistry, and physics are the required courses, and horticulture is a popular elective. Providing the answers and insights into the world of science are: Dr. Herman Boatin, department chairman, Mr. Jack Bridges, Mr. Fred Chadwick, Mr. Alan Drake, Ms. Diana Hoehn, Mr. Richard Hough, Mr. James Risto, Mr. Larry Simon, and Dr. Joseph Mottillo. Hough Cares About Student Success Mr. Richard Hough, who has taught science at Edsel Ford for 28 year , explained why he decided on a teaching vocation, “I like young people very much; they’re idealistic, and they just want to make it a better world.” He added. ‘‘I like to be a part of that.” “I think youth are our most valuable resource and it is very satisfying to see, that these young people are goal-oriented and desire achievement, that they want to do well,” stated the veteran teacher. “It’s up to me, the teacher, to create situations where they can be successful.” He believes that learning is not that bad “if you show the nitty-gritty, and explain. Then everything else falls in place.” Mr. Hough coached track and football at Edsel and practiced some of his beliefs on the playing field as well as in the classroom. The coach said, “I try to get kids to extend themselves. When I coached track I tried to set achievable goals, but sometimes the goals were greater than what the kids thought they had in them.” He added. ‘‘It’s the same thing in the classroom. They would say, ‘I can’t do that, and I would say, ‘Oh yes you can!” 31 Mr. Ralph Hashoian, an art teacher at Edsel Ford High School, has many other outside activities which keep him busy. In addition to his family, wife, son and two daughters, Mr. Hashoian operates his art studio. There he puts his own creativity to work by painting on canvas during the summer and fall. Also, he does commercial art work during school months. After replying “too long,” when first asked how long he has taught at Edsel, he exclaimed, “Twenty-five years!” “Hash” taught at O.L. Smith, Edison, Oakland Community College and Schoolcraft Community Col- lege, in addition to Edsel Ford. He attended a number of colleges before teaching, including Wayne State, where he received a Bachelors in Fine Arts and Eastern Michigan, where he earned his teaching certificate. He also attended the University of California-Berkley on a scholarship. He and his family lived in San Francisco for a year while he earned a humanities degree. Classes at Michigan State and the University of Michigan complete his professional undertakings. In his free time. Hash belongs to a racing club, enjoys sailing and admires the creations of his idols - Van Gogh, Michaelangelo and Chillini. The EF art department com- prised the talents of three tea- chers - Ralph Hashoian, Grant McKenzie and Robert Leveque. The commercial art course is a fairly new course offering. ‘Hash’ stated the major goal of the course “is to prepare students to enter into the vast field of commercial art, not just to teach them how to draw. We hope to develop the whole concept from beginning to end. The course develops proper attitudes and disciplines and lets students ex- perience working conditions that would be found in real art studios.” 32 Math The Edsel Ford math department consists of classes ranging from basic math to trigonometry. Teach- ers include Mrs. Carole Fielek, Mr. George Savatsky, Ms. Lisa Otlen- baker, Mr. David Harrison, Mrs. Margaret Gnau, Mrs. Sandra Frank, Mr. David Raybin, Ms. Diana Hoehn, and Mr. Larry Simon. Classes include Basic 1 2, refresher math, intro, algebra, geometry, trig- onometry, advanced math, and con- sumer math. Math teacher, Mrs. Margaret Gnau, has been teaching algebra courses at EF for several years. Other courses she has taught include the sciences, English Humanities and German. She has been teaching for thirty-five years, including eighteen at Edsel. Mrs. Gnau attended Sienna Heights College in Adrian, Michi- gan. In her free time, Mrs. Gnau enjoys bike riding, visiting friends, cross-country ski- ing, snowmobiling and shopping. She enjoys working with her husband.present- ing communication and leadership semi- nars. During the summer, Mrs. Gnau likes to travel. She also gardens and rides her bike five miles a day when the weather permits because “I enjoy the sun. OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP LEFT: Mr. Ralph Hashoian preaches to class.

Clements and Gements: A Winning Team Mrs. Karen Clements has taught Eng- lish and home economics at Edsel for six years, alongside her husband, Mr. Richard Clements, who is a counselor. When asked what it is like working with her husband, Mrs. Gements stated, “It’s wonderful! We get to share in many school activities such as basketball, volleyball, and football. Also, we share many of the same students.’’ She continues jokingly, “It’s also nice to have a ride to work.’ Mrs. Gements’ outside interests include family activities, golfing, bridge, dinner parties, and entertaining friends. Mrs. Clements graduated from St. Alphonsus and achieved her Bachelor’s Degree in Family Life Education at Wayne State University. Also, she gained her Master’s Degree in Home Economics at Eastern MichiganUniversity. Her favorite sport is golf because, “it is an individualized sport and I can set my own pace.” She also compares the kids of today with the kids of her own childhood, “Today’s youth has to grow up a lot faster with more responsibility because of working mothers. But, all in all, kids are still kids because the qualities are still the same.’’ When asked how student-teacher rela- tions could improve, Mrs. Gements ex- pressed herself by saying, “Teachers could take a more active role in attending school activities and showing an interest in how students do as individuals. But then, students should try to have a more positive attitude toward learning.’ Mrs. Gements started teaching because “I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. I can’t' think of a better way of making a living than to work with youths who are upbeat and enthusiastic.’ On the important question of whether home economics should become a required course, Mrs. Gements was vehement. “Absolutely! With more men assuming child care and general housekeeping responsibilities, it is imperative that it be required for both.’’ Three teachers are the mainstay of the section, Mrs. Carol Bocskay, Mrs. Janet Bodenmiller, and Mrs. Karen Gements. Among the classes offered are food fundamentals, beginning gourmet, child development, home crafts, clothing and housing. In the past, these classes were primarily taken by females, but now more and more males are responding to the call of two-job house- holds. 34 Business Ed. Business education is a very popular area at Edsel Ford. Mr. Robert Bergen, the section head, leads a group of very experienced and enthusiastic teachers that include Ms. Shirley Shea, Ms. Laverne Motter, Ms. Christine Majstorovich and Mr. Gerald Kowalski. They teach a variety of informative classes such as typing, accounting, marketing, salesmanship, business law, data processing, notehand, record keeping, and distributive education (the school store).

He went to Sterling Heights Stevenson High School and then to Central Michigan University. He has majors in business education and marketing. Mr. Bergen’s hobbies include bowling and reading. In bowling, he maintains a 170 average. In reading, he enjoys all Stephen King books. Mr. Bergen owns two kittens and is a new homeowner. This business department head has held his position for four years. He is also the chairperson of the Faculty Advisory Coun- cil. He teaches marketing in the fall and salesmanship in the spring, and also typing, which he likes best because “it’s something a person can use in a vocation and also in future home life. Before Edsel, Mr. Bergen taught at Ecorse High School and created the school store there. When speaking of E.F.’s school store, he said, “The school store students are great, and after the down- stairs remodeling is done, we will move on to bigger and better things.” On how student-teacher relations could improve, Mr. Bergen compromised “Stu- dents could have have more respect for their teachers and also teachers could show more school spirit by attending and showing interest in school activities.” Mr. Bergen chose teaching because he likes knowing he is participating in enriching students’ lives and minds. Student Nancy Becker, 12, commented, “Mr. Bergen is the best teacher I’ve ever had.” “The funniest thing that ever happened to me at Edsel was when I locked my tie in a drawer. I put something in the drawer, and I locked it and my tie was inside,” recalled Mr. Bergen with a sheepish grin. 35 Otto Performs Mr. James Otto, band director at EF, is a new addition to Edsel’s faculty. He replaces Mr. Jack Pierson, who was promoted to music coordinator for the Dearborn school system. Mr. Otto has both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s Degree from the University of Michigan. His Bachelor’s Degree is in music education and his Master’s is in performance. Before coming to Edsel, Mr. Otto taught in the Hillsdale community schools. When comparing Edsel students to Hillsdale students he stated, “Students here work harder for the most part; they are dependable and well-rounded individu- als. The band leader went through his procedure for choosing concert music. He said, “First, there’s a book listing all the music literature. I go through that list and decide what is appropriate for the concert and which I prefer. For example, for a Christmas concert I would choose Christ- mas music, and then I decide if it is playable for the students. Equal to playability is the educational value, what the students will learn from the piece, its educational content. And, hopefully, the students will like it.” When asked about his personal music preferences, Mr. Otto said, “I like every- thing, jazz, classical, modem, every- thing. M Don’t think, though , that all Mr. Otto does is teach. He is also a performer and has been playing the French horn for 19 years. He has performed with a number of groups, including the Jackson Symphony, Spring Arbor College-Community Band, and the Ann Arbor Symphonic Band. At the present time, he is performing with Southfield’s Scandinavian Symphony Orchestra. “My priority is teaching. Because of this, I don’t get to play as much as I should to keep my lip up. “I couldn’t choose between playing in an orchestra or teaching- If 1 played in an orchestra I would teach privately,’’ stated Mr. Otto. Instrumental Music The instrumental Department is under the direction of Mr. James Otto. It consists of the Concert Band, Orchestra, Jazz Band, Symphonic Band, Pep Band and the Marching Band.

Spanish and German clubs and other students from Edsel and Dearborn high schools were inv ited to go on a hayride October 15. The ride was at Camp Dearborn and cost $3.00 per person Seventy students attended the fun fall event from the two schools. Said Jan VandenBurg. German and music teacher, and a chaperone on the ride. “It was a perfect day. Clear, no rain, as in past years. It was just cool enough so we had a bonfire afterwards. I had a lot of fun. We’ll do it again next year. Also to herald in the fall was a French play called Le Misanthrope,' by famous French playwright Moliere. The comedy premiered October 28 at the Detroit institute of Arts at 7:30 p.m. The play is sponsored bv the French Institute of Detroit and by Franca is Alliance. Lc Misanthrope' is a comedy of manners, during the seventeenth cen- tury. set in Paris. It is about a man named Alceste, who Moliere used to attack the follies of his time, including hypocrisy of court life, absurd manners of those who appear in court, dishonesty of bribing a judge in order to win a lawsuit, ludicrous poetry w ritten by those with no talent simply because writing poetry was one of the acts required of a gentleman, and the delight of gossiping. Moliere believed that all were unfair and hated them. He publicized his leelmgs in a comedy performed first in 1666. I he play is done in seventeenth century costume and completely in French. I.veil I don't understand all of it.” admitted Virginia Waldinger. EF French teacher.

With a new band director, Mr. James Otto, there have been a lot of changes. “My first year at Edsel can be summed up as fun and exciting,” explained Mr. Otto. This has been somewhat of a difficult year for band members, however, as students have experienced changes. Among these are learning a different marching technique and dealing with a new conductor and his style. A special addition to this year’s orchestra was a visit by Professor Russ Reed from Eastern Michigan University in early November. At this time he worked with the string section for one hour. Professor Reed taught the group how to use the bow- more efficiently and how to stay in tune better. This year’s Jazz Band performed at Central Michigan University Jazz Festival Friday. February 13. The saxophone section received first runner up ‘‘Best Section” playing “Early Autumn” and “Bill Bailey.” Senior Craig McCardell earned “Best Soloist” acclaim, performing “Early Autumn” and “Sweet Georgia Brown.” The Jazz Band played three numbers, ‘‘Early Autumn” “Bill Bailey” and “Sweet Georgia Brown.” Friday, March 13 the Symphonic and Concert Bands received first and second division ratings at District Band Festival in Ida, Michigan. “Iam very proud of all the hard work the band members put into preparation for Festivals,” Mr. Otto stated proudly.

There are no officers. Court guides give elementary school children an unusual nature experience through guided tours of Thornley Court, which contains many species of birds not often seen in Metro Detroit, or even in Michigan, for that matter. Examples are African geese, peacocks and peahens Chinese pheasants, Coturix quail and Japanese angora chickens. Three species of turtles and several rabbits also contribute to the Thornley Court experience. The Ecology Club is comprised of students interested in instilling a positive feeling towards the environment. The club is sponsored by Dr. Herman Boatin, and the officers are President, Steve Palmeter, 11; Vice-President, Kyung-Me Lim, 12; Secretary, Tracy Gregory, 12; and Treasurer, Dawn Sabuda,12« Examples of Ecology Club scheduled activities were a ski trip to the Upper Peninsula which, unfortunately, was cancelled because of lack of snow, participating in the Rouge River clean-up project, the sale of poinsettias at Christmas, and annual Thornley Court clean-ups.

A-’ a 11 I C by SUse Ambrozaitis “Seeing the President of the United States from thirty feet away has been one of the most exciting political events in my life thus far,” stated Senior Class Representative, Ryan R.

Currently, he is working on State Representative William Runco’s Senate campaign and often attends Dearborn City council meetings. ‘'Bill Runco has really helped me a lot.” credit? Afflbro aitis._______ I do believe Ryan will someday be successful. It’s just a shame he’s for the other party,” chuckled social studies teacher Mr. David Balfour.

Edsel Ford then gave a huge round of applause for the 1986 Edsel Ford Home- French Culture Have you ever had the urge to travel? How about traveling to a foreign land where you are familiar with no one? Nick Bonin. Edsel Ford exchange stu- dent from Paris, France,has experienced that adventurous feeling. Bonin stated,“The first thing that surprised our exchange group was that American cars are very, very big-- not like in France. Also, in France there are Japanese, German, Italian, along with French people--not like in the United States. Another surprise is that we saw guys brush their hair and keep a comb in their back pocket. In France we would think that is weird.” At Edsel, this exchange student is currently taking Spanish. English, typ- ing, American history, and economics. He is also on the EF soccer team, is an only child, and owns a dog and two squirrels for pets.______________ Cote Takes First in Contest Todd Barron Tries for Scholarship Dawson, Wingart, Alviani Honored 'an - Great Moments Kristin Armstrong Wyka's Whizzers Lisa Abbamonte Amera Abbas Monica Acevedo V.

The month of October saw the first senior tailgate party, after EF’s last home football game against Waterford Kettering; Edsel triumphed! The party was organized by Lee Ann Hanioan and Ryan Ambrozaitis, and they were aided greatly by Kim Carter and Susan Kitchen. The parents of senior students each donated a homemade treat. There was a smorgasbord of food, including cupcakes and pizza and chips and pasta salad and chicken, everything from brownies to meatballs. An estimated 150 seniors attended. The tailgate party proved to be a big success and may become a tradition for future T-Birds. November was a busy, busy month for officers. Kitchen and Hanoian tried to organize a Thunderette team, Thunderettes being junior or senior girls who dance on the court during halftime at basketball games. As the activity’s sponsor retired last year and no one volunteered to take her place, the future of Thunderettes was up in the air for a while. 88 Popularity Poll Sexiest Strut- Who are those two seniors attracting all the stares with their sexy struts? The Senior Class agrees that Scott Moss and Celeste Molinari have the best bounce and the wildest wiggle. Most Athletically inclined- Kris Salt and Tim Wyman excel in every sport from croquet to mud wrestling. This year Kris Salt took first place in the state cross country meet and Tim Wyman was a varsity captain. Way to go Thunderbirds! 89 Freshmen Flock to Welcome Wiggle What’s the best way to cure those freshman blues? Every year Edsel Ford starts off the season with a bang by ushering in freshmen with the Welcome Wiggle. This year's dance will be held Friday. September 12. in Thunderbird Hall. Tickets are $3.00 in the ticket booth or $5.00 at the door, and identification is required. The dance will last from 8:00 - 11:00 p.m.. but no students will be admitted after 9:30. The Wiggle is sponsored by the Student Coordinating Council, headed by seniors Chris Bicrman, president, and Jason Sullivan, vice-president. Bicrman stated. “The dance should be an over- whelming success due to the elaborate advance preparations the Student Council made.’ The Council has also agreed on a new deejay. Music 2 Go. Junior Tracey Treiber remarked. “I think it’s great that we’re trying out some new rock and roll. Last year’s predominant Top 40 got to be a little much; we need some variety.” Echoed Heather Cummings.11, “I’m glad we’re using a new deejay. Music 2 Go seems really dedicated, which is important for a good dance. And they’re allowing us to pick our own music ahead of time in Leadership Training, which will make for a cool mixture.” The Welcome Wiggle, one of the first social events of the school year, serves a higher purpose than just to promise a good time. “This is really an important event because it's such a good opportuni- ty for the freshmen to get to know evervbodv.” explained Jeff DelGludice, 11. _____________________by Elizabeth Dawson b Bekkic O’Shesky Summer’s over and once again Edsel's halls become the hunting ground for everyone’s favorite target: FRESHMEN. These somewhat docile, usually gulli- ble creatures fall easy prey to the roving packs of mildly malicious upperclassmen. But freshmen, never fear! If you follow the suggestions below, you just MIGHT make it through your first year. 1. Do not ask for directions to a class from anv senior. Most are intent on misguiding innocent freshmen. 2. Do not get on a teacher’s bad side. Even if you don’t realize it now, they Survival Tips for Freshmen control a good portion of your social life! (Like when your parents ground you because the teacher gave you an E on an English assignment.) 3. Do not, no matter how’ much you admire a senior, tell him or her that you idolize him or her. They’ll find some way to use it against you. 4. If any senior is being sweetsy-sweet- sy to you. its not necessarily because he likes you. He probably wants you to do his dirty work. 5. Do not tell a senior any of your worst habits. (Like eating cardboard or sniffing Bathroom Policy Adopted; Students Show Mixed Views by Stase Ambrozaitls The Edsel Ford faculty has adopted a new policy concerning the restrooms at Edsel Ford High School. This policy, approved by the City of Dearborn Health Department, allows students to use only monitored bath- rooms in the main hall during class time. All others, to be monitored by teachers, will be available during class exchange. Brought on by the problem of student smoking in the lavatories, the policy became effective the first day of school. According to Mrs. Judith Coebly. EF assistant principal, the outcome admini- strators are looking for is “that the bathrooms be used for the purpose intended and to stop smoking during school hours.” Although Mrs. Coebly isn’t sure if the policy is fair, she docs believe it is “the most equitable solution.” Junior Laura Drapeau agrees. “I don’t I think people like to walk to main hall during class but the new policy is helping v keep the restrooms clean.” Not all students think the policy is going to work. “If people still want to smoke they’ll find a way. The teachers can’t see in the individual stalls. stated a concerned sophomore. However, administrators think the plan is going to work and they say the policy will be permanent for the entire 86-87 school year. “It’s bad that it has come dow n io this, especially in my senior year, but I think it is a good idea if it will solve the problem.” commented Rvan Ambro aitis 12. “I have noticed two major things.’’ said bathroom monitor. Dr. Herman Boatin. “One. the bathrooms are being used bv more of a student population rather than the minority who were smoking, and two. the condition of the restrooms is something one no longer has to be ashamed of.” Liquid Paper.)

EF Junior Excels at Speech “I enjoy competitions so much because they give me a chance to express my ideas and. at the same time, learn from the experiences of others.” reflected EF junior Steven Andrews, in regard to acquiring first place positions in both local and district levels in the “Voice of Democracy” speech contest. The contest, sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign War, enabled participating students to express their views concern- ing democracy in America. Andrews’ speech. ‘‘New Horizons for America's Youth.” encouraged techno- logical advancement to keep the world safe for democracy. After winning one hundred dollars in Edsel Ford’s contest in December. Andrews went on to present his speech at the district level January 17 at the VFW post 345. He won three hundred dollars in savings bonds and he intends to use the money to purchase automobile insur- ance. During the weekend of January 24 to 26. Andrews and his father traveled to Kalamazoo to participate in state compe- tition. Of fifteen entrants, he did not place in the top three.

BOTTOM LEFT Matt Hetner eats his arm; Shannon Doak could be a model Excuses, Excuses, Excuses! People use excuses every day. They give them to their teachers, their bosses, their friends and their parents. How many times have you used excuses? Have you ever run out of them? Here are a few creative ones for when you find yourself in a jam. When you forget your homework: tMy mother used it to paper train our new puppy. tit was confiscated for reasons of national security. tMy sister used it to roll cigarettes. tMy aunt is using it for a window shade, t! had to use it to stuff the holes in my wall. When you are late for school: tl was kidnapped by Russian spies. tMy sister ate my alarm clock. tThieves used my car for a getaway, tl was tied up in my bedshects. tl was locked in my house. When you come home late: tWc were locked in the movie theatre. tWe witnessed a robbery and had to wait for the police. tWe came home early and the house was locked. tWe were caught in a fire. tThcrc was a mad dog in the car. When you skip athletic practice: tMy ankle was swollen to the size of a small moon. tl had to take the car home to my mother, tl forgot my practice uniform, tl couldn't breathe, tl couldn't sec. When you don't buy band candy, magna-pockets, or support other school fundraisers: tl'm saving for my college fund. tl’m sending my money to Asia to save pagan babies. tl already brought some from (or sponsored) Kelly (or Chris. Dave. Sue. Mike), tl'm saving my money for my mother's kidney transplant. tl’m on welfare: give me your money instead. If the area you have trouble finding excuses for isn't here, these can be tailored to suit your needs. The Evolution of a Species The Lifespan of the Edselidium Studentus The Edselidium Studentus is a unique creature and it should not be mistaken for one of its cousins, the Dcarbomium Studentus or the Fordsonium Studentus. The best way to tell the difference between the various Studentus is by color. The Edselidiums' black and white crests are quite in comparison to the garish orange and black of the Dcarbomium and the flashy yellow and blue plumage of the Fordsonium. But don't let the lack of gaudy plumage fool you. The Edselidium has a spirit which belies its soft coloring. Another distinguishing characteristic is the positioning of the head of the studentus. The Edselium has an extremely level head. The Dcarbomium has a head that tilts grossly upward and the Fordsonium’s has a severe downward list. The Edselidium goes through four stages in its lifespan. The first stage is the Freshmanca . The characteristics of a Freshmanea are easy to recognize. Most Freshmanea sport their black and white plummage quite openly. They congregate in large groups and arc constantly heard chattering. Since Freshmanea are the youngest form of the Edselidium they receive the most taunts from older members. The Freshmanca for the most part are smaller than members of the other stages. They call of the Freshmanca is. How do you get to...?” The Freshmanca stage lasts for a little more than nine months and then the Freshmenea goes into a sort of chrysalistic stage for three months. After the three months are over, thc’Edselidium emerges into its second stage. Sophomorea. The Sophomorea is slightly more advanced than the Freshmenea. But only slightly. The Sophomorea’s plumage isn’t as vivid but it is 'srger than the Freshmenea. Sophomorea are more accepted by the elders of the species and can be seen mingling with the third stage. Juniorea. and the final stage. Seniorea. The Sophomorea are more at home with their surroundings and have grown out of the lost look present on the faces of the Freshmenea. The Sophomorea also goes through the three month chrysallistic stage, emerging as a Ju- niorea. The Juniorea is the best adjusted of the Edselidium. The Juniorea have adjusted com- pletely to their environment and are quite laid back, sometimes even cocky. The males of the Juniorea have finally become proportionate to the females. The coloring of the Juniorea have reverted back to the brightly contrasting black and white. The Juniorea go into chrysallistic isolation to emerge as Seniorea. Seniorea is the final stage of the Edselidium. When compared to the younger versions, the Seniorea seems to digress .The Seniorea have mostly abandoned the natural coloring of the Edselidium in favor of imitating the coloring of various College us. The Seniorea have very little intra-environ- mental contact and prefer to vacate the area quickly. Seniorea are more individualistic than their younger relatives, but they are also more reckless. The call of the Seniorea does not manifest itself until the Seniorea’s final four months. Then the call is heard loudly and far spread. Only x more days until SPRING BREAK!” or the variation Only x more days until GRADUATION!” The Seniorea goes into a final chrsyallization where it develops into various Collegeus. But that's a different species. Don't even think about taking my picture. 120 Teacher-Hobby Match-up You may not believe it, but teachers really do have activities outside of school.

Hanging out with the football team, introduced me to the buzz cut. Northwest Surburban Champions First since the 1982 season. Yes, the Edsel Ford football squad proved to be the best team in the league October 17, with a title clinching 32-14 victory over Woodhaven. The 5-2 Thunderbirds wasted no time, scoring first in the opening minutes of the quarter. Junior combination Jim May hit Jerry Meltzer with an 88-yard bomb to make the tally 6-0. The extra point was blocked. Later, with 1:51 remaining in the first, Brian Wigart,ll, scampered 24 yards up the middle for EF’s second touchdown, 12-0. The two point conversion was completed by Rob Marano,ll. With over six minutes remaining in the second quarter, the T-Birds were march- ing down field, on the verge of another scoring drive, but a delay-of-game penalty sent the home team back five yards, setting up the fourth down and nine situation. However. May connected for the first down to city-leading receiver Chris Blermaii,12, to keep the drive still intact. The possession resulted in a three-yard run by Marano; thus, placekicker Dan Greenwell,12, shanked his extra-point boot shy to the left.20-0. With just 38 seconds entering the final quarter, May added an insurance points with a quarterback sneak over the top for a 26-0 advantage. “The team was really intense, and the only thing we had on our mind was to win the league,’ claimed Bierman. We had to bounce back after the loss to Ypsilanti. We did it with great defense and plenty of offensive punch!” Quarterback Kelly Betz,ll, capped off the Edsel scoring demolition with a 13 yard aerial to Matt Allen, 11, at 5:23 of the fourth quarter.

Varsity football at Edsel Ford High School can be called a game of team pride. The Thunderbirds captured the city title and made a great effort at the State play-offs. Though the T-Birds were defeated by Henry Ford at the first game of the play-offs, the fulfillment of leading the team to this height was a crowning achievement for Coach Jack Bridges.

The lady cagers’ season record was 13-7, which beat the previous record by one win. The T-Birds started off the season a little slow. During the middle they proceeded to win seven games in a row. However, Coach Carmine Morga’s team dropped the next two games on its list and the Tnished the season going both ways. The Black and White played its way through Districts defeating Bishop Bor- gess and Cody High, to advance into the District finals. Competing against Mac Kenzie for the top spot, Edsel ran over them and became the District finals champions. Leading the Edsel team were senior co-captains Tracy Acker and Pam Lucas. Other seniors were Kim Dapprlch and Lori Cubr. This young, well-rounded team continu- ed to advance to Regionals, held at Northville High School. Defeating High- land Park in the first round, Edsel proceeded on to the Regional finals. Competing against Farmington Mercy in the Regional finals, Edsel had a tough time in the first half on defense. In the second half the T-Birds outscored Mercy 26-20. Unfortunately, however, Edsel lost! Even though the loss brought the girls down, they all have something to be very proud of. The 1986 girls Varsity basketball team went farther than any other team in the history of Edsel Ford girls basketball. FRONT ROWiMaureen O’Donnell, Tracy Acker, Pam Lucas, Bev DeJohn.

Sixteen girls were on the team, and athletes were selected from any of the four grade levels. However, since there is only a varsity team, underclassmen would have to be outstanding make the team. Tryouts were held in March for the upcoming season. For the ‘87 season, there were 13 returning players, with 49 other athletes trying out. Thus, Coach Mike McGinty had a tough road ahead of him. Out of 49 girls, three were selected, bringing the total number on the team to 16. In the first tryout, 40 were eliminated. The nine remain- ing girls practiced with the returning players for about one week, and the final three were then chosen. “We had an awesome season this year,” exclaimed Mary Hanoian, 11. “We had Sandy Ewing, 11, returning to play left wing. In our previous season that was the only position in which we lagged. With Sandy there, it was number one now!“ Hanoian, along with Amy Doner, Leigh Bennett, Bev DeJohn, Maureen O’Donnell and Ewing were the returning juniors. All, with the exception of Ewing, were three year players. Seniors Lisa Crill and Marni Sanders were the only two returning seniors and both played since their freshmen year. Julie Naciewicz, Mary Randinitis, Amy LaBelle, Leslie Rut- chick and Ali Widmer were the sophomores and the future hopes for the team. Jenny Hoffmeister was the only freshman. 130 Kickers Achieve Expectations First row: Dave Ciavaglia, 9; Tony Lamonte, 10; Rick Markley, 10; Scott Moss, 12; Rob Haffey,12; Jason Alabakoff.il; Lee Hunt,12; Mike Ciavaglia, 11; Todd Williams,9; Randy Dillander.10; Nick Bonin,12.

THIS PAGE: The golf team smiles brightly, looking quite at home with clubs in hand and on the course. It was a critical hole in Mike Petix’s spawning career. The T-Bird golf team was in a deadlock with Redford Thurston. Edsel needed a 41 to win the match by a stroke. When Petix stepped up to the tee on the ninth hole on Warren Valley’s east course, his score was 37. To get the winning 41, Petix would have to par the hole. The hole was a par four, about 360 yards, with a dog leg to the left. The challenge of the hole was that about 100 yards off the tee the fairway sloped sharply upw ard. If the golfer did not drive the first hill from the tee he would be dead in the water for the hole. But Petix’s confidence was high. He hit the ball high and long, flying the hill and landing up the fairway about 230 yards. That left 130 yards to the green: a strong 7-iron was his choice. However, the second shot sliced, landing him in the three foot high “dreaded cucuya” grass, to the right of the green. With his trusty pitching-wedge in hand, Petix lofted a picture-perfect shot on to the green, about six feet from the hole. This next putt would be for the glory. He hunkered down over the ball, knees bent, and stroked the shot firmly. “Never up, never in,” he thought. The break w as high to the right, but he anticipated it. The ball went straight in the hole. Par for Petix, and another fantastic finsh for Edsel Ford. 134 Big Mouths Strike Again The cake-eating contest. It was originally intended as a pep rally event before the Edsel-Dearborn game, refering to “eating the cakes of Dearborn.” But the contest has developed into a highly competitve sport in its own right. Contestants have been known to train for weeks, even months in advance. Competing in first lunch were motor mouth seniors Lee Ann Hanoian. Rob Haffey and Tom Stansell; juniors Tony Brooks. Tony Dumas, Jem- Meltzer and Marina Reba; sophomore Steve Woods; and freshman Michele Reba. All were in top form, but Stansell chomped and blazed his way to a record 1:11, setting a tough pace for second lunch to follow. Masticating for honors in second lunch were seniors Leah Anger. Jeff Aughton, Chris Bierman, Marc Michie, Dawn Subuda and Chuck Shaw; junior Louie Motowski; sophomores Kirstein Gibson and Jason Marion. Odds on favorite for second lunch was Bierman, who truly impressed the mark Stansell made an hour before, and finished with an amazing 1:08. His trick: a healthy combination of cake (which was provided by Bill Knapps) and milk. Always a crowd pleaser. the cake-eating contest, Edsel's annual of the big mouths, was another success in ‘87. The records set on that day may hold for generations. Harriers Go State Again Opposite Page: Upper Left: Francis Palardy, 12, runs ahead of Doug Langley, 12.

Coach Bob Knepper and Coach John Rossi both agreed they were pleased with this year’s team and that they had strong swimmers for every event. “I’m most pleased with the fact that we have qualified so many swimmers for state so early in the season!” exclaimed Coach Knepper. “I’m also very pleased with the times the swimmers have been getting. Their times are constantly improving.” Swimmers who have qualified for state competition are Tim Burke, 11, in the 100-yd. breast; Jason Paolettl, 12, in the 50 and 100-yd. freestyle; and the Medly Relay team which consists of Burke, Jim Kress, 11, Paoletti, and Randy Fryz, 12. ‘‘A lot of our success is due to Mr. Knepper and Mr. Rossi,” stated team co-captain senior Andy Etchen. “They have helped us all individually and improved the team as a whole.” “We have a much stronger team this year,” commented co-captain Fryz. “But we don’t have as much depth as we need. We need more swimmers! I do think,though,that we can take city with the team we have.” The team’s major goal this year was to defeat defending state champions Dearborn High. The encounter was a tragedy for the valiant Edsel Ford tankers as they lost 91 to 77. 143 League Victories-Bright Spots 144 The Edsel Ford Thunderbird basketball team did very well in the Northwest Suburban Athletic Association this season.

Style-Stamina-Success; WeVe Got It Last season the boys’varsity baseball team held the Northwest Suburban Athletic Association League title but had to share it with two other high schools, Dearborn and Garden City. “Our goal this season was to defend our current title of NSAA League champs,” stated Coach Schultz. Mr. Shultz hoped that with the superior talent of his team this year, it would be able to claim the title all to itself. The talent of the team comes from seven returning players, six of whom were seniors: Chris Bierman, Mike Dorosh, Kent Hutchens, Jeff Jernigan, Joel Scott and Steve Purvis-Smith. The other returning player was junior Tim Walega, who was the starting pitcher. “Because of the number of experienced players, I had high expectations of a good year,” remarked the EF baseball mentor. This year’s star player was Hutchins. Along with playing the infield, he tried his hand at some pitching. Coach Schultz hoped that Hutchens would supply the power needed for the offense. As for the defense, the strength was emphasized at the “corners,” first and third base. Pitch Tim, don’t break dance. Coach Schultz, “Now this is a ball.

For all incoming freshmen, Edsel Ford offers a wide variety of athletics to suit their competitive desires. The 1986-87 freshmen football, basketball, and volleyball teams all had successful seasons. In volleyball, the freshmen lady netters were 38-11 for the season. Placing third of 16 teams in the Annual Schoolcraft College Ninth Grade Tournament was Coach Jim Wims- hurst’s most memorable moment of an all around outstanding season. The 86 freshman football team rounded off its season with a disappointing 2-2-3 record. Preston Lange explained, “We had a lot of disappointments but we’re all looking forward to next season to show what we reallv can do!“ The 1986-87 hoopsters ended their season with a satisfying 11-5 record. The majority of their losses were very close games and the season turn-around came against Monroe, in which they were defeated by four points in overtime. Coach Cialone explained, “During the Monroe game.the team really seemed to come together. I feel this is what freshmen sports are all about, learning dedication and teamwork.” Standouts included Todd Williams, John Hamel, and high scorer. Matt Hetner. 159 T-Bird Grapplers Keep Tradition Opposite Page: Top Left: Mike Petix, 11, and Frank “Cheech” Aloisio, 10, celebrate victory. Top Right: Co-captain Sean Ennis goes for the breakdown.

Under the brilliant direction of Mr. Pat “Whizzer” Wyka, the Edsel Ford wrestling squad had another winning season. The Edsel grapplers had a final dual meet record of eight wins and Five losses, placing them well above the .500 mark and providing their audiences with many thrilling and exciting moments. FRONT ROW: Eric Yunker,ll. Brian Psik,12, Mike Chubb, 10, Mr. Pat “Whizzer” Wyka, Frank “Cheech” Aloisio,10, Ron Royer,10, Bryan Szor,12, Scott Mattieson.il.

One of these moments was the Edsel-Dearborn wrestling match-up. This meet was one of suspense in which the winner was decided in the Final match. In this deciding match, T-Bird heavyweight Scott Mattieson locked horns with Dearborn’s Matt Wegher. Mattieson foretold the tide of the match-up when in the Final seconds he told Wegher, “It’s all over; I won!” The Final match enabled Edsel to edge out the Pioneers 32-30. This was the twenty-second year Edsel beat Dear- born. This year’s squad turned out many Fine wrestlers. Under the super- vison of co-captains Brian Psik, 12, and Sean Ennes, 12, the wrestlers improved their performance throughout the season. The team also turned out two League Champs, Frank “Cheech” Aloisio, 10, and captain Psik. Many other members followed through in second place. The Edsel squad tied for North- west Suburban Athletic Association League championship with Garden City, after an excellent show placing 12 of 13 wrestlers. 161 Seniors Seniors k AOTIJVB-T � « an appcmr t ity for studsnts to show thdr artistic { aWky Each semester a project n pusn trial is rtiatx) to an an tot being j taucft � Armstrong, Kristin 3350 Vassar 66 Seniors Bcmick, Harrow 2840 Boldt 35. 67 Seniors Chubb, Matthew 3811 West Point 3. 68. 150. 151 Seniors Daoust, Jody 3022 Queen 69 Abbamontc, Lisa 24909 Dunning 66 Abbas.

However, no matter how hard we tried, how dedicated we were, how persevering our efforts, errors may have occurred and the staff apologizes for any that may be found. The year passed quickly and the time has come for the moment of truth - were all our endeavors worth this final product? We believe it was. This Out of the Ordinary Year is a very unique and unusual book. We hope you will agree. It is our opinion that it is also the very best one that Edsel has produced. We hope you will agree with us here. too. May you enjoy this year for now. and for all years to come. Lee Ann Hanoian EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Because I am the Editor-in-Chief of the Flight. I have the privilege of stating a final few words. To be on the yearbook staff a student must be hardworking, quick thinking, creative and able to work under constant pressure in order to face the many challenges. Some challenges arc to make sure every activity. dass,sport and student is covered. Every student’s name must be checked and recheckcd for spelling. The best pictures possible must be scheduled, taken and often retaken, in order to remember the events of the year, and all of this under the pressure of deadlines, which loom just overhead. The staff faced those challenges -and more- with all the necessary qualities.
