They saw red hallways and red lockers. And they knew it was Goshen High School. At Goshen, red was more than just a color. It was a way of life. As the school year began, freshman thought that red stood for anxiety, mixed with excitement. Students woke up early, made new friends, and reminisced with old ones. I was a little nervous about the start of school, but I was anxious to get back with my friends, said Dan Welz, freshman. During the year, red had shown spirit. Students be- came settled and felt at home. They got involved in extra-curricular activities and became a unified stu- dent body. At athletic events, people wearing spirit shirts, sweaters, and jackets filled the stands. Near the end of the year, red was like a stop light. Things slowed as everyone looked forward to another summer. Academics sparkled at Goshen as scores indicated. Enjoying their Stratford, Ontario, sou- venirs and the post-Stratford party. are Shelia Lippert and Kelly Moynihan. Whittern) Staying eligible to play sports means keeping up the grades.

Spreading the spirit and support throughout the school were the Raging Reds. The athletic program. Big Red, took a step toward im- provement, as two new coaches, Mr. Randy Robert- son, football, and Mr. Mike Sorrell, basketball, joined the staff. Sporting red blaz- ers on game days, the bas- ketball team showed signs of rejuvenated spirit. Students with social con- cerns became involved with Students Against Driving Drunk, a growing national organization. Supporting the school was a key role for everyone and the community helped. Backing the total school program, the community shared in red successes. At Goshen High School, red was rarely overlooked. Where there was red, there was pride. Goshen stood out, be- cause red stood out.

He lights his last cigarette and ravishes the closet for a clean shirt. He remembered he forgot to take his laundry downstairs to Mom. He sees his smelly Purdue t-shirt from last night. Running out the door, after taking one last snooze-button break, he wonders if he brought any books home to take back to school. No, of course not. Slithering in the front door of the school, he encounters only one other student, for the tar- dy bell has already rung. Hey, man, you late, too? Really, I ' m lost. Can you help me? asked a new boy, clad in boat shoes, Calvin Kleins, an oxford shirt covered with a wool sweater. Bif leads the new boy to their U.S. History class. The teacher has already marked Bif tardy, use to the occurrence. Bif listens to conversation, while the teacher puts an out- line on the board. What are you doing tc night? a blonde girl asks.

Wow, sounds like the kids have their stuff to- gether around here. Oh, they ' re just was- tin ' their time. Kimmy needs to find a real man, Bif suggests. I think it ' s good that they have their priorities straight. Maybe you could learn from them, the new kid says. What d ' ya know? While the teacher con- tinues the outline, Bif leaves the room.

(by Whittern) One of the many exciting ex- periences of one ' s high school life. Homecoming week. There was a lot more coo- peration from all classes com- pared to last year which helped make this one of our better years, said Kenda Resler, Senior Class Presi- dent. Student Council really put a lot of work into Homecom- ing week. I ' m happy with how it turned out, said Mrs. Char- lene Cook, Student Council sponsor. Homecoming week spirit added variety and excitement to the activities in which stu- dents readily participated. A combination of the spirit days included Bermuda, hat and beach; Costume; Disney and Big Red Day. This was the most participated day of the week. One of the extra activities that was initiated this year was the Crimson signing par- ty. This was held on the eve of the Homecoming game. Stu- dents could pick up the pre- vious yearbook and order the next. Though a bonfire wasn ' t held this year, the spirit was still kept to a maximum. The next event of the week came around, pre-game com- petition. Included this year were the toilet paper, the pan- tyhose, and relay races. This was a different set-up from last year. Participation from all classes helped make this an eventful night. The toilet paper race was rather humorous as a student from each class was wrapped with a roll of toilet paper by other teammates and had to be the first one on a portable toilet. In the pantyhose race, the guts representing each class raced to put on a pair of pan- tyhose and run to the finish line. The relay race included big- wheel, wheelbarrow, leap- frog, and three-legged races. The suspense of the evening finally broke when senior, Ju- lie Keidaish was crowned 1985 Homecoming Queen by 1984 Queen Chrissy Messick. Her court consisted of sen- iors Kim Moon, Natalie Du- binin, and Margaret Sanders. Underclass representatives were Traci Evans, junior; Lara Wartsler, sophomore; and Amy Eshleman, freshman.

Each year there are unique trends that dominate the fash- ion scene at GHS. In the not- so-distant past, we saw such crazes as bell-bottomed pants, wide lapels, torn sweatshirts in the Flashdance style, and parachute pants. This year paisley was featured. An explosion of new British- inspired fashions have made a dominant debut in the halls of GHS. In both guys and girls, paisley, big shirts, and baroque styles staged a rage, not to mention bright Swatches in a variety of psychedelic colors and designs. But these styles weren ' t for everyone. Many people stuck to their old favorites: jeans, t- shirts, sweatshirts, sneakers, and the like. Clothes reflect people ' s moods, as well as their person- alities, according to Carrie Grise, senior. When I ' m in a bad mood, I wear gross clothes, said Grise. Another way of dress that was fashionable was the classic or preppy look. Some prefer- ences included oxford shirts, sweaters, polos, and topsider shoes. Not only do clothes, but also stylish cars display tastes, like this one owned Each person has his or her own style, whether they ' re conscious of it or not, said Su- zanna Mast, freshman. I cer- tainly don ' t expect everyone to agree with MY taste! The personalities of the stu- dents were also revealed in dif- ferent types of music. Each decade of teenagers has al- ways had its share of favorite groups or musicians. Though the musical prefer- ences of students ranged from hard rock to punk, the general accordances of 1985 were Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Phil Collins, Huey Lewis and the News, and Tears for Fears. What are some qualities that attract students to a certain group or type of music? I like upbeat songs and lyr- ics I can relate to, said Kate Singer, sophomore. Some oth- er standards included a good dance beat, music that ' s not repetitive, and a strong lead guitar. Fads come and go with the passing of each year. Some people take these fads serious- ly, so much that they base their ideals on them. Others block them out of their life- styles, not willing to accept any new ideas. Most people just gradually blend in and out of each new trend, (by Jenny Dro- let) by James Nofziger. (by Whittern) Parents in school Mom and Dad make unique locker partners As one matures and flirts with adulthood, independence and the ability to break free of family imposed constraints be- come very important. School, although not usually a teen ' s favorite thing, offers an atmosphere in which one can grow and act independent- ly of Mom and Dad. Of course, this freedom would dissipate rapidly if the unthinkable occurred, and Mom or Dad also spent days in the school. Several Goshen High School students are forced to deal with the unthinkable as one of their parents works at GHS. However, the general con- census among these students is that their situation is actually a good one. All the students think they are awarded some definite ad- vantages, due to the fact they have parents working in GHS. Dad ' s here if I have a prob- lem or if I need money or a permission slip signed, ex- plained Kenda Resler, senior, whose Father, Mr. Herb Resler, holds the position of GHS ath- letic director. Ryan Sorreil, senior, and son of GHS business instructor Mr. Mike Sorreil, expressed thoughts similar to Kenda ' s, stating, Dad ' s here if I need a note or money. Also a car is always here since dad drives. I can use it if I need to. With his situation, Ryan said that no problems had ever re- sulted from his dad working in school. Conflicts at home do occur, if only rarely, for Dawn and Kenda. Sometimes a problem oc- curs, but not a lot. Mom doesn ' t usually mix her work with the things at home, said Dawn. Not very often has there been a conflict, Kenda stated, but there have been times when things that were related to school have affected the way we act at home. Regardless of any problems that may result from having a parent who works at GHS, each student maintained that his thought their relationship with his parent at GHS was strengthened due to this situa- tion. Ryan thought that his rela- tionship with his father was made stronger, and better, since his dad is not only a GHS teacher, but also his coach on the varsity basketball team. Basketball builds our rela- tionship more than school does, he explained. Kenda thought that her rela- tionship with her father was made stronger because she was able to spend more time Ties stay strong Ready to be announced at the Penn game. Ryan Sorrell is eager to leave his spot on the bench, as his father, Coach Mike Sorrell looks on. (by Whittern) with him. This extra time allows Kenda and her father to gain a better understanding of one another. Dawn Johns, junior, and daughter of GHS athletic sec- retary Mrs. Janet Johns, relat- ed advantages different from those that Kenda and Ryan re- ceived. There are a lot of fringe benefits, I don ' t have to pay for things like admission to games, etc. I also get to know the coaches on a friendly basis, she said. Dawn and Kenda also thought that Mom or Dad ' s presence in the school can, at times, be disadvantageous. It ' s like a continual parent- teacher conference. Dad can always check on a grade or my attendance, so I have to watch what I do, commented Kenda. Dawn also thought that her situation forces her to act more carefully, stating, You have to be careful about what you do. You have to watch out. Ryan, however, said there were no negative side-effects resulting from the fact that his father works at GHS. I can ' t think of any disad- vantages. I really don ' t see my dad very often in school. I ' ve never taken one of his classes and I usually only see him in the halls, he said. Just as the in-school advan- tages outweigh the disadvan- tages, each student thought his situation of going to school with a parent helped, rather than hindered, their family life. Dawn expressed feelings si- miliar to those of Kenda, stat- ing, My mom and I know what ' s going on in each other ' s lives which helps our relation- ship a lot. Although many would balk at the mere idea of a parent spending days at GHS, those who live the idea seem to view it as a blessing rather than a restriction. Having a parent at GHS is a blessing for these stu- dents because not only do they receive school-related advan- tages, they also are the recipi- ents of a better, stronger fam- ily-life, (by Rick Snyder) While Mrs, Janet Johns finishes up her day ' s work, Dawn studies in her mom ' s office, (by Whittern) Striving for perfection. Bob Gangwer concentrates on his moto. He hias been a top rider in the state in the past few years. Straightening up the chairs is only part of the job for Tri Iran, who tal es pride in keeping the school clean, (by Weldy) -ftfter Hours After 3:00 Students involved in jobs and activities As most teenagers realize there is more to life than just school. After school hours, stu- dents do different things rang- ing from working to involving themselves in organizations or contests. Bob Gangwer has been rac- ing his motocross bike since he was 10-years-old. Bob enjoys the challenge, and the away- from-schooi experience. Bob has received much at- tention for his hobby, some of which are Rider of the Year, top ten finishes in the state, tri- ple crown championship se- ries, along with many Northern Indiana BMX Association year- end awards. Despite these awards, Bob still wants to continue racing for a few more years. I ' ve still got a couple of goals that I ' ve yet to reach, he said. Mark Miller ' s hobby provides fun for many people. He puts on dances for area high schools, because he enjoys the environment and the chance to meet new people. Mark might put his present activities to use in his future. The career I have in mind is one of a nightclub D.J., and eventually owning my own nightclub, he said. Some students like Tri Iran, get jobs because they need the money. It is common for teen- Goshen ' s Junior Miss, Diane Folk, took a lot of time away from scfiool in order to participate in tfie pageant. agers to want money, and Tri is ' no exception. Working those hours every- day, Tri saves the money for college and other things he likes to buy, along with one other special item. I like to help my brothers and sister to pay the rent on the house. He has stayed with his broth- ers and sister since coming to the United States from Viet- nam in 1982. There are also other ways to spend time after school and on the weekends, as Diane Folk has, by participating in the Ju- nior Miss Pageant. After winning the local pag- eant, that took about two hours a night, several nights a week, Diane thinks it was a good experience, and she got many things out of it. I gained self-confidence, new friends, and the opportuni- ty to go to Frankfort, where the state pageant was held. By involving themselves in activities, students can have fun and not go through the same routine of school day after day. Activities not only can help the students learn more about themselves, but can keep the students busy and help them enjoy their high school life, (by Terry Slabach) After Houcs: 15-1 Full houses Odd Couple gives single life a new meaning The agony of depression drives Felix mad. (by Whittern) Have you ever wondered what it is like for two divorced men to live together? The pre- sentation of The Odd Couple proved that they couldn ' t. Having full houses on both nights, the play brought many uplifting comments and cheers from the audience. I thought that the students worked really hard and pulled off a really great show both nights, said Ms. Sue Neeb. The play opened with Speed (Lisa Gibbon), Murray (Alan Holder), Rhoda (Amy Sno- berger), Vinnie (Tim Savage), and Oscar Madison (Carlin Kauffman), playinig their week- ly poker game. Also, they are wondering where Felix could be. Felix finally shows up crying and depressed because his wife kicked him out of the house. Oscar feels sorry for him and lets him move in for a while. The two men are totally oppo- site, Felix, neat and tidy, and Oscar, sloppy and untidy. But somehow they manage to stand each other. One of the more humorous moments of the play was when Oscar was menacing Felix. Felix has many bad habits, and Os- car makes it clear to inform Soon after destroying Oscar ' s poker game. Felix criticizes Oscar ' s demea- nor, (by Whittern) Not wanting him to jump out of the window, fellow poker players hold Felix back, (by Whittern) him. There can be a misunder- standing or two, also. As an example ... ... You leave me little notes on my pil- low. I told you a hundred times, I can ' t stand little notes on my pillow. ' We ' re all out of Corn Flakes. F.U. ' ... It took me three hours to figure out that F.U. was Felix Unger ... After Felix finally gets his di- vorce over with, he meets an English Betty Boop and her sis- ter. Gwendolyn (Elaine Wig- gins) and Cecily (Michelle Milne) soon invite Felix to come live with them. Felix accepts and is then out of Oscar ' s hair. This production, staged on November 8 and 9, was written by Neil Simon and was directed by David Kortemeier. Student director was Chingu Rajagopa- lan.

Godspell, a moderen look at the Bible, is often a censored play. But sell-out GHS crowds proved that the musical was highly demanded here. The Godspell cast includes Mike McEachran as Jesus Christ; Corey Stewart as John the Baptist Judas. Tim Mitch- ell, Lisa Gibbon, Kim Johnson, Kellie Moynihan, Tina Lam- bright, Elaine Wiggins, Diane Folk, Mindy Wieland, Matt Beck, Michelle Milne, and Eric Winningham as other Biblical characters. Godspell is an adaption of the book St. Matthew. The scene of the play takes place in no particular time nor place. The meaning of the musical was to take the audience through the parables and teachings of Christ. As the sto- ry unfolds, the characters be- come more excited and the ex- citement for what Christ is tell- ing them becomes contagious. The second act opens as a recap of ac t one, but soon the action became a more serious nature as the characters be- gins to realize what Christ will need to sacrifice for them. Some of the more inspira- tional songs that the cast sang were Day by Day, Save the People, and By My Side. (by Carmen Miller) Jesus tells Ann and Tim that if one of tfieir hands has sinned, they should cut it off and throw it away, (by Whittern) Kelli Moynihan asks to be forgiven after she realized she has done wrong unto others, (by Whittern) p_19-| The guidance department waiting room almost becomes tine social event of the year while dozens of students wait at one time to see their counselors after the pupils saw what the computer had done to their schedules, (by Dro- let) f-20-i Mechanical drawing means hours with a pencil drawing shapes to improve a product or machine. Tim Welling hopes the practice will help him in college, (by Whittern) ■Aeademic Divider Select a class Studies Stand Out No longer could students gladly be released from class to face the decision of a lifetime in arena schedul- ing. No more was there the jug- gling of all the class cards and waiting in long lines only to find that the hour you wanted was filled. Goshen High School, under new administration, was striv- ing for improvements that made the tedious jobs a little easier. The year ' s new change involved using computers to plan the students ' schedules, instead of arena scheduling. The modification was met with mixed emotions. It was a good idea, but there could have been some improvements, said Carl Hel- rich, sophomore. Junior Fred Buckingham dis- liked the new computers. I liked the arena scheduling be- cause the students knew what they were getting, and there was less confusion trying to reschedule at the beginning of a semester, he said. Many students found that they didn ' t like their pre- planned schedules. Not getting the teacher or class hour caused pupils to head straight to the guidance office, where they would spend up to hours waiting in line to talk to a coun- selor. Anger and frustration for some students died down as their classes were switched or as time progressed. Others were pleased by what could be called luck, allowing for accept- able schedules the first time. It was obviously a disaster. A computer may be efficient, but I ' m not sure how practi- cal, said Becky Swanson, sophomore. The National Math Contest is a grueling couple of hours of testing.

(by McCreary) Even though tough, Mike Hildebrar achieves the prestigious top Math Te score, (by McCreary) Impressive scores at GHS by Cozetta F-Jassi Increasing its size and adding elite names to the Math Exam marked a solid year for the Math Department. Two new staff members and a new class were added to the department. Mrs. Rebecca Swihart, Geometry I, and Mr. Brad Park, Algebra I, and Ap- plied Math were new. Applied Math is offered to students in order for them to obtain the needed math cred- its required for graduation. This course is especially helpful to the class of 1989 which now needs four math credits in or- der to graduate. Previously, only two math credits were re- quired. In the Annual High School Math Exam, GHS again ranked very high out of 100 Indiana schools. Contributing to this success was Mike Hildebrand and Jeff Wertz, seniors, who had the two highest scores, respective- ly, in the school, while Mike Wittrig, also a senior, had the third highest score. I think that our success is just a reflection of the accom- plishments of many of the fine math students at Goshen High School. Much of the credit for our work must be passed on to our fine Math Department here at the high school, said Wit- trig. Hilde brand commends the Math Department as well. I appreciate the advantage we ' ve experienced in having strong math classes made available to us. I believe that a strong math background opens possibilities in many fields of work and builds a strong foun- dation for the future, said Hil- debrand. Finding new books is always a chore for the department. This year a committee of stu- dents, parents and teachers proofread new textbooks to de- termine the best one for next year. One reached goal for the de- partment was to incorporate a year-end math test. This test evaluated each student ' s pro- gress and exposed aspects of math that needed improve- ment for the next year.

But before busing it to Flor- ida, requirements needed for the class were three to four Saturday morning classes, group presentations, and snorkling practice done in the high school pool. I choose the class because I have been interested in sci- ence, played volleyball, laid out in the sun and different things. The work was easy. I liked the trip because I made new friends. I would recommend this class to anyone who has the slightest interest in sci- ence, said Carrie Grise, sen- ior. Other classes besides Marine Biology kept student interest, liked my science (physics) Doing laundry is not as fun as snorkling, but a necessity, (by Mark Miller) Florida sun shines strong class because it ' s fun, said En- rique Vazquez, senior. A dedicated teacher decided to try to go beyond the class- room experience. Going out and beyond sci- ence, Mr. Bill Tichenor applied for the teacher in space pro- gram. He was encouraged by his interests which included flying, science, and space. This year was unique for a couple of reasons. I applied and went to a convention for the program. Also, there has been more interest in Challenger this year than past years. Stu- dents wanted to learn and find out more about Challenger, said Tichenor. Others settled for the enjoyment of their class with Mr. Elmer Bowers. I like science (chemistry) because I think it ' s fun and interesting, said Al- len Ewing, senior, (by Stella Diaz) Keeping track of certain Marine Life is a challenge, (by Mark Miller) Chris Fisel, Liz Mays, and Tiffiny Baker take Biology 1 to the heart of the mat- ter, the frog matter, that is.

Dealing with these and other frustrations go along with tak- ing a business course at Go- shen High School. It ' s not all frustration, though. Valuable business skills can be learned from classes like typing, accounting. Office Machines, General Business, Business Law, and Office Ex- perience Lab. I took typing because it will help save time doing papers in college, Chris Wertz, sopho- more, said. Unlike business, which deals with items in a mechanical sense, social studies involves studying ideas and concepts that lead to a better under- standing of global policies. The student put these ideas into practice by experiencing different aspects of the world around them. Senior psychology classes visited the Fort Wayne Devel- opmental Center, a place for the developmentally disabled. Freshman Citizenship classes held a mock trial and visited the Elkart County Court House. Senior Civics classes had guest speakers, including May- or Max Chidister supporting his anti-cruising stance. Mr. Rick Clark, psychology and sociology teacher, said, Our goal is to make students more aware of their roles as citizens in the community, in a Democracy, and in our world. r26_n Business Social Studies Peering in one of the rooms at the Fort Wayne Developmental Center, Cindy Wilkins and Cammi Kreager try to learn more about the mentally retarded, (by Whittern) 1 Participating in the computer age, Lesa Doing the adding machine boogie, E Charles works the keyboard, (by McDaniel punches the keys, (by Weld Weldy) ■ Ei d fli r ' ' mnv « Hk m jsi si K K KKKK m K 3| H||g«| W jH IKf jfrnl Kjk ' 1 P ' jf( K— f J Doing their part to raise money for the Salvation Army and earn credits for Ci- vics, Kim Moon and Kelli Moynihan ring bells outside G.L.

This year ' s freshman class can say it has. Roller skating is the only new activity in physical education, but there was another signifi- cant change. Instructors now have their own class that they are in charge of, instead of many in- structors in charge of one large class. The one large class was divided into three separate classes with three separate in- structors. There was only one main goal of the department. The in- structors wanted to get their students to work together as a group and build a better rap- port of themselves. During a tumbling exercise, Thad Hold- en helps Jeff Iwema with balancing, (by Snyder) Some students were not convinced physical education was necessary. I don ' t like to be forced into doing physical activity, but it ' s better than sitting at home stuffing your face, said Mindy Altenhof, freshman. I don ' t think we should be made to run laps like we do be- cause some people can ' t keep up. I don ' t like having grades based on that, said Mary Ro- dabaugh, freshman. Another freshman didn ' t like the running either. Nothing but soreness and hard legs come from running so much, said Marie Net- trouer.

However, as many adults will agree, marriage is not always the wonderful proposition that it may appear. So, in order to prepare students for the reality of life after wedlock, Married Life is offered. Offered only to seniors, many students still aren ' t plan- ning on marriage in the near future, but five students who attended class were engaged. Gir marriage. Two major projects of the ourse were an actual, but pre- nd wedding at the Church of d and the caring of an egg r one week. This chicken egg mbolized a couple ' s baby, id each parent took turns 3ch day watching it. If by lance the egg got lost or ' oken, the parent who was in narge at that time had to rite a report explaining the ;cident. After completion of this Durse, seniors learned that larriage is not always easy, but it IS good. Often marriage leads to hav- ing children. So GHS offers Child Development and On-Site Child Development. Child Development helps prepare a person to deal with children from pregnancy to six years of age. Even a visit to the hospital labor room gave in- sight. Terminal illness and serious handicaps are crisis that must be dealt with. Videos and films helped prepare for these prob- lems. On-Site lasted for two hours a day, where the student usual- ly worked at a nursery or ele- mentary school on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tues- day and Thursday class was at the GHS where students learned about child care and supervision. Some field trips included the Goshen College kindergarten laboratory, the Preschool ADEC, the Prevention of Child Abuse Services in Elkhart, and the Model Elementary school, (by Cozetta Rassi) Maybe a surprise, one-third of the class is composed of guys. But Mrs. Dee Kinney, married life, would like more guys attending class. I would like to have even more, she said. At the beginning of the course, each student must pick out a pretend spouse for the entire course. Each must de- cide what kind of person he would want to live with for the rest of his life. Married Life taught skills needed for everyday living and getting along with a spouse. Budgeting techniques were taught and actually used in the buying of groceries, looking at cars and homes, and finding proper insurances for a car, home, and health. The class learned how to handle actual family crisis situ- ations. These situations con- sisted of unemployment, a handicapped child, a death in the family, a divorce, or spouse abuse. A tour of the Goshen General Hospital was given in the O.B. Department and labor rooms. Speakers were also a major learning aspect of the course. Insurance agents and home realtors spoke. Even former students who are now married have come to tell how the Mar- ried Life course has helped them through the difficulties of The Child Development class brought in children between the ages of four and six.

I didn ' t like the crowded classrooms because I was transferred from one class to another which I didn ' t like be- cause the teacher I was going to have, I knew how he taught, but I had to adjust to the teach- ing of the other, said Esmer- elda Vazquez, junior. English: a language almost everyone grew up with; howev- er, the English Department re- mained the largest department on campus. Even a class was added, Problem Solving by Mr. Glenn Humerickhouse, for the gifted students. Many took advantage of the Shakespeare class with en- joyed the Shakespearean Festi- val. The students viewed The Twelfth Night, King Lear, and The Glass Menagerie, there at Stratford, Canada. I really like going to Strat- ford. It was fun. While we were there we shopped and went to standing steadily while speaking on pornography is James Nafzinger. sen- ior, (by Dame) Dancing to music on a street in Strat- ford are Annette Rhoades and Margret Sanders, seniors, (by Whittern) a pub and danced, said John Morris, senior. Also, other students were found in and around Stratford shopping. Freshmen and students afterward had to take more classes for next year ' s new re- quirements, eight units of Eng- lish. I don ' t think the students will feel pressured because this year ' s students are already taking extra courses that they don ' t need, said Mr. Doug Cartwright, department head. However, some students thought differently. I don ' t think students should have to take an extra class. If a person doesn ' t know something in one hour, one more hour really won ' t make a difference, said Diane Hodge, freshman. An obstacle to overcome was the roaming teachers. There weren ' t enough rooms for all the classes, so teachers had to share rooms. Eight rooms and 11 teachers proved to be te- dious . f-32 -I English r: Enticed by The Grapes of Wrath in Writing Themes are Ann Robey and Ju- lie Keidash, seniors, (by Whttern) P JSir J.

This year brought new different ideas, and major im- provements to the staff. The most obvious change in the TOMAHAWK was the use of color. In the December issue, for instance, a bold shade of red added to the spirit of Christmas. More subtle changes have also occurred. The year marked a landmark for the number of issues pro- duced. The number of issues put out per year rose from four a couple of years ago to nine. Also, the first eight-page with a center spread highlighted the Friday before people left for Spring Break. To put out one issue, hours upon hours of work was in- volved. These hours of work were usually crammed into one or two nights. The Monday and Tuesday nights before the pa- per was sent to press were des- ignated worknights. These hours of work paid off, Staff-designed inserts mean a lot of stuffing. Twelve hundred such May in- serts kept Sue Ganguly, and Michelle Loucks busy before they were to dis- tribute to the classrooms, (by McCreary) Before the Kenda Resler, news fea- ture editor can edit a story, Kim Sor- rell, copy editor must finish entering the data.

New computer software al- lowed for neat, consistent headlines, while stories were placed attractively and cre- atively. Staff members partici- pated in Indiana High School Press Association and Ball State events, and won some prestigious awards. The staff also learned how important the business side of the paper was. Advertising produced more revenue than past years, and catered more toward the student needs. Sue Ganguly, sophomore and second semester editor-in- chief, was pleased with the pro- gress of the staff. While Mr. Dame did the mo- tivating, new second semester students (after graduating from Journalism 1) really added a new and professional understanding of student journalism. This really helped in the TOMAHAWK ' S coverage of important news events and to entertain the reader more with better feature stories, she said. The year ended with a senior edition edited by the 1987 edi- tors and with Kenda Resler winning the SOUTH BEND TRI- BUNE staff member of the year award. The TOMAHAWK staff consists of from top to bottom: Rob Snyder, photogra- pher; Michelle Loucks, reporter; Matt Burridge, sports editor; Kenda Resler, news feature editor; Melissa Wilden, reporter; Bob Gangwer, managing edi- tor; Alan Holder, opinion editor; Craig Showalter, ad sales; Kim Sorrell, copy editor; Sue Ganguly, editor-in-chief; Chris Hamilton, reporter; Monica Martz, business manager, (by Dame) 1-35-1 Newspapsr t Too often the EPSON wordprocessor eats discs.

In the summer, some of the young and relatively inexperi- enced staff members partici- pated in journalism camps at Manchester College and Indi- ana University. These workshops taught the staffers some of the basic jour- nalistic skills that would be needed in the upcoming year. One idea that came from the Manchester camp was what became the first-ever GHS signing party. At this time, the 1985 yearbooks were distribut- ed and students signed one an- other ' s books. According to Mr. Mark Dame, advisor, It went very well. After the signing party, the staff members started to con- centrate on their designated sections of the book and the real work began. At first, there were many late-night work sessions that lasted from 3:00 p.m. until sometimes midnight. This ex- tra time that was put in was a result of the inexperience. With the extra sessions, the yearbook staff met its last deadline, which enabled the 1986 Crimsons to be delivered on time. Despite all of the time in- volved in making the yearbook, staff members also had time to participate in J-Day at Ball State University, where Larry McCreary won a prestigious second place award in sports photography. 1-36-1 Crim son Much of the $20,000 yearbook budget must come from advertising.

Building Trades gave stu- dents with a good vocational background training and skills that weren ' t available in a classroom. Not only was it a new exper- ience for the students of the Building Trades Class to build a $65,000 house in Keim Es- tates, but it was also only the second house that was built un- der the direction of Mr. Pete Weddel. He commented, I enjoyed working with the Junior-Senior level students who were inter- ested in the building trades in- dustry as an occupation. The EACC helped the stu- dents focus their attention to an area of study that they, as adults, would use as a source of income or as a major hobby. Horticulture, auto body repair, and cosmetology were just a few of the courses that stu- dents could study during the three-hour period that the EACC is open. Bob Gangwer, senior and ra- dio major, stated, I felt that it was a great learning exper- ience and it will help in the fu- ture. r-39-i Building Trades, Career CentgE -Aft-And Industrial Arts Paint brushes and saws create art by Carmen Miller Producing a grandfather clock highlighted the Art and Industrial Art Departments. The clock was among many other projects made such as a roll top desk, a couch, tables, dressers, and waterbeds. Many may think that Indus- trial Arts classes are just for constructing. According to Mr. Dean Wentz, Mechanical Draw- ing, Industrial Arts students learn practical knowledge and receive hands-on-experience in dealing with industrial ma- chines and tools. For instance, the Home Maintenance class refinished the handrails of the second floor landing. The inconve- nience of the sawdust and varnish-filled hallway was soon forgotten when the profession- al-looking results were recog- nized. Many of the advanced stu- dents are considering some type of career that deals with industrial education. Although some skills from these classes can be used in other fields, stated Mr. Steve Shivley, woods. While Industrial Arts is not just a class to build or repair things. Art is not just a class to paste and glue paper. Art is a class where one can learn the various techniques in- volved in making art work, commented Mr. Doug Yoder, department chairman. Some projects made in art classes were pottery, portrait drawings and paintings. Art is really fun. If I had a choice, I ' d have art classes all six hours of my schedule, commented Jimmy Deknikker, senior, (by Carmen Miller) anding, one of the cabinets made in oods III class, is Chris Miner, junior. y Whittern) Planing down a board for his project is Pat Ott, junior, (by Snyder) 1-41-1 Art And Industrial-Arts- Look behind the scenes by Bruce Grevengoed When talking about the per- forming arts crew, one usually considers the actors and ac- tresses, but what about the people behind the scenes? These unseen people have spent much time and effort making props, taking tickets, and assisting the performers with makeup. Suzette Lewallen, senior, was an assistant stage man- ager and in charge of the props. Lewallen found her job very difficult because she did not receive much recognition. I liked being in charge, and it ' s a good feeling to know that I helped make the show work. But it was very difficult to see the actors and actresses get- ting congratulated because no one knew what I or any of the other people had done. Al- though all things considered, it was a good experience, said Lewallen. Sometimes a performing arts group was a musical mon- tage to back up singers in a play or musical, such as the special group in Godspell. Whether it is a sax player or a person who nailed the sets together, each person was an intricate weave in the web of every production, said Miss Marcia Yost, choir director. Godspell is full of music. The singers are supported by the caged-in band be- hind stage scenery.

The op-rated performance there eflected all the time and hard vork put into perfecting the nusical numbers throughout he year. Songs from the musical The Viz were the featured selec- ions, including Brand New )ay, Slide Some Oil to Me, ' Home, Ease on Down the ?oad, He ' s the Wiz, and ' Believe in Yourself. We got off to a shaky start, but everyone put in a good ef- fort, and we succeeded in the end, said Linda Noheimer, senior and drum major. The band got an early outset, practicing frequently during the sweltering summer months. These practices con- tinued throughout the season, as members of the band and guard strived for top honors at each of their many competi- tions. The band ' s endeavors result- ed in success. It took several first place and best auxiliary awards in contests. At Houston they won the Sweepstakes award for most points overall. However, the crew exper- ienced many deterrences dur- ing the season, from occasion- ally performing in the rain to a bus breakdown on the return trip from Texas. Band hits the big time Despite the problems, which were minor incidents com- pared to the thrill of the sea- son ' s victories, Mr. Dave Plank, band director, found the sea- son to be very successful. He mentioned the trip to the As- trodome as the year ' s climax. With all the events, capping off the season with the Blue- bonnet Bowl trip had to be the highlight of this year and the students ' years in high school, and it was a high point for me, too, he said. Another unique point in the season included performing with the Concord Marching Minutemen during the football sectional at Concord.

We got into games free, could sit with our friends, and crash at peo- ple ' s houses afterwards, said piccalo player Kathy No- heimer, sophomore. Unlike the Pep Band, whose major goal was to provide spirit for the basketball crowds, the Jazz Band was mainly con- cerned with winning competi- tion at contests and festivals. The first and only contest the Jass Band entered was the In- diana State School Music Asso- ciation contest at Northside High School. The band achieved a superior rating. The Jazz Band played at three festivals. At the Penn High School Jazz Festival, sev- eral students received awards of recognition. Fourteen bands competed in the Ball State Jazz Festival where the GHS Jazz Band be- came one of the two honored bands which gained recogni- tion by playing in the evening concert. Kris Ropp, senior, was recognized as best lead trum- pet player. The Pops Concert featured Larry Mc Williams, director of Ball State ' s Jazz Band, as well as an hour ' s worth of fine GHS band music. Some of the excit- ing music performed were Africa Shout, with a fine per- cussion solo, and Sussudio, a Phil Collins number that Scott Leiter performed a wail- ing saxophone solo.

The 16 students worked hard to perfect their songs. Concerts took on a profession- al attitude as orchestra director Mr. Brian Kirk pushed students to their full potential. Recently a group that did not perform too much, this year shined in three concerts in Oc- tober, December, and May. The May concert, the Goshen All-City Orchestra Festival, in- cluded the efforts GHS ' s or- chestra, along with the city ' s elementary and junior high groups. Some of the numbers per- formed that evening included Abduction from the Seraglio by W.A. Mozart, and selections from the Ballet Gayane by Kha- chaturian. The festival gave a chance to hand out the awards. Cellist Scott Litwiller was named Out- standing Senior, while other important awards were named, too. Orchestra came a long way this year. New uniforms and a new and better attitude let us perform on a more enjoyable level, said Litwiller. Contests were entered more this year, too, showing a keen- er interest in the importance of orchestra. Kirk helped motivate us into a ' real ' orchestra that peo- ple should have respected.

The Advanced Choir covered more difficult and heavier concert material, while the others sang songs that were a bit lighter.

Songs on the agenda for the Advanced Choir included Morning Serenade, and All Creatures of God and King. The Annual Christmas Con- cert proved to be the highlight of the year. The choirs sang some challenging selections, as well as a rendition of ' twas the Night Before Christmas with the choirs combined. Miss Marcia Yost, choir di- rector, commented on the ac- complishments of the year. The concerts were well-re- ceived and well-performed. We had a very good year, she said.

Strange class times and many hours of practicing and performing brought forth the dedication needed to be considered a Crimsonaire. Since the class was only of- fered from 6:50 to 7:50 a.m., students had to drag them- selves out of bed and tune up their vocal cords at that early hour. The students knew if they could survive singing at dawn, they could survive anything. Early morning rehearsals gave way to late-night con- certs. Pre-concert jitters were predominant throughout the year, although frequent perfor- mances made getting onstage routine. The confident air was reflect- ed in the concerts as the group learned from its mistakes. Singing and dancing came nat- urally as they progressed. I think we ' re the best SWING choir around. In a swing choir it ' s hard to get a group who can sing and dance well. We ' re strong in both areas, said Mindy Wieland, junior. The GHS ensemble also dif- fered from other area choirs in that boys showed more inter- est in the group, as well as hav- ing the needed talent, accord- ing to Wieland. Some special presentations topped the list of concerts for the Crimso naires. These in- cluded giving concerts for stu- dents ' grandparents on Grand- parents ' Day, and various area social groups.

Red not only stood for spirit, but for dedication in clubs such as National Honor Society, Quill and Scroll, Speech Team, SADD, Media Club, Fishing Club, and Chess Club.

However, fun on the beach was not the only activity that five students in the Student Council were involved in. Mark Miller, Terry Slabach, Kim Johnson, Mindy Wieland, and Becky Swanson all visited the National Leadership Train- ing Center at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, to learn about leadership skills which will help them, as leaders, to lead GHS in the Student Council. Summer meetings were also held at five different times dur- ing the summer in order to get acquainted with Dr. Brad Pressler, assistant principal, and make the student calen- dar. The annual State Student Council Convention was held in Evansville this year on October 11 and 12. This convention was mainly to share ideas from oth- er schools, but many new peo- ple were also met in the pro- cess. Anyone in the Student Council who wanted to partici- pate had the option of signing up. The main job of the council was to organize dances, class competitions during spirit weeks. Blood Donor Day, Grandparents Day, and the ringing of bells for the Salvation Army at Christmas. This was a good year for the council, as Mark Miller, presi- dent, stated, This year we be- gan to institute changes in some of the Student Council process. We hope that this will help to make the Student Council more effective in the future. Besides getting to know a lot of people and being a lot of fun, it was a good experience for the future, said Miriam Blosser, junior. Tracy Evans, junior, thought that council was fun, too.

Since many students used some sort of media sources while in the library, Mrs. Ger- maine Burns, media specialist, thought that all users would gain some kind of media knowl- edge. Whereas Media Club has a way of communicating, so does Speech Team, only in a differ- ent way. After getting off to a rather slow start, the Speech Team was finally formed. The team consisted of Kenda Resler, sen- ior; Chingu Rajagopalan, Mindy Wieland, Cindy Wilfong, Jenni- fer Odie, juniors; and Michelle Milne, freshman. The team was under the direction of Miss Randi Machamer and Mr. John Shoup. The team traveled to many meets, and performed well at most of them, accord- ing to Machamer. I think that the girls learned better techniques of speaking. It ' s a lot of fun meeting people from other schools and getting to know them better, said Shoup.

SADD also had three objec- tives to contend with: 1) to alert high school students of the dangers of drinking and driving, 2) to conduct commu- nity alcohol awareness pro- grams, and 3) to organize peer counseling programs to help students who may have con- cerns about alcohol. One major campaign was the prom and graduation drive. This drive consisted of handing out pledge cards to every stu- dent going to the prom, estab- lishing community support in the form of discounts to stu- dents signing a pledge card, and taking part in radio and television announcements. The newest and most fun way of helping students avoid driving drunk was the New Year ' s Eve party at GHS. Three hundred and fifty-two students from seven Elkhart county schools joined at GHS for an evening and morning of danc- ing, watching video movies, playing basketball, volleyball, board and card games, swim- ming, wrestling, eating break- fast, and for some, sleeping. SADD also sponsored the only convocation of the year. John and Celeste Reed told of John ' s experience with drink- ing and driving and encouraged students to sign a contract stating that the student will never drive after drinking. Elementary schools were even presented with aware- ness information. Skits were performed by the SADD group at every sixth grade. Many chil- dren cried after hearing sto- ries. Because of a SADD work- shop on How to Make SADD Alive in Your School, GHS re- ceived a special award from Governor Robert Orr. Fund raisers were also a ma- jor part of SADD. The Chicago Bears played basketball, candy sales, 16 civic presentations, a May 10 dance, participants for the community health fair all were events that helped the club survive financially. A Cedar Point Trip that fol- lowed the prom was the final event of the year. Not only was SADD busy, but two new groups evolved out of special student interest. The fishing club could be found at area fishing contests. Participants tried to catch the biggest fish and other special catagories. Mr. Dean Wentz led the group. The chess club kept students stranded at a checkered board for hours upon hours.

When you had the blues, an uplifting poster or cheer boost- ed your spirits. This year not only did ath- letes get supported, so did honor roll students. Funny sayings were often seen on lockers, with the ulti- mate purpose of either beating Concord, or breaking a leg at the musical. Cheerleaders weren ' t the only ones keeping in the spot- light, of course. I think that the spirit groups, not just cheerleaders, boost so much morale for the athletic teams, said Mrs. Ja- net Johns, cheerleader spon- sor.

Beginning with dinner at someplace like the Matterhorn or Jeremiah Sweenies, most couples then drove to the high school, where they were greet- ed by students ' fathers wearing top hats. These fathers were in charge of the valet parking ser- vice. Candles in papers bags lit up the walk to the gym lobby, where sophomores greeted the guests. To get to the gym, each per- son had to walk through a mass of thick fog, and then over a bridge. Once in the gym, to get to the dance floor, one needed to pass the refreshment stand and benches. As for the dancing, Danny and the Deadbeats played. Once one got tired of dancing, he could be filled with cookies, punch, and peanuts and eat them in picnic fashion, which was part of the scenery. Park benches were on the floor, and swings hung from the ceiling. Christmas lights over royal blue crape paper on the ceiling added a romantic effect. Toward the middle of the evening, the crowning of the queen occurred. The queen, Margaret Sanders, escorted by her king, Tom Wogoman. Shortly after the queen crowning was the garter cere- mony. Each guy took the gar- ter off of his date ' s leg. The prom seemed to be quite enjoyed. It was fun seeing all of your friends dress up, said Tina Lambright, senior. It was an enchanting even- ing in London, said Kim John- son, sophomore. After all of the dancing and socializing, an after-prom was held in the Whiteman gym from 1:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. The movies Prom Night, St. El- mo ' s fire, and The Breakfast Club, played in different rooms with more food for any- one hungry.

Being the son of the head coach could cause difficulties, but Ryan Sorrell said the team responded well. I came in and the people were real good. They accepted me, said Ryan. Ironically, the father-son re- lationship actually helped the team according to Ryan. Terry Slabach, senior, was one who looked beyond Ryan ' s relationship with his dad and saw how he could help the team. Until I saw Ryan play, I didn ' t think we had a chance at for a good season, said Sla- bach. His father echoed Slabach ' s thoughts. Ryan ... He was the cata- You have to have success. lyst. He was the leader, and was the one who knew the pro- gram initially, and that helped others, stated Mr. Sorrell. There were others who helped in the turn around ac- cording to the head coach. (Kevin) Wilfong developed in to a strong consistant scor- ing leader. He did a nice job rebounding too, said the head coach. He was true to his word, by the end of the season Wil- fong had grabbed a team lead- ing 173 rebounds. Mike Essig, sophomore, was also praised by the coach. Essig developed his inside game and became an out- standing defensive player, said Sorrell. Sorrell labeled Slabach an outside threat, and said of Todd Iwema, senior, he may be the best overall athlete, and used his ability to score. Of the other seniors he said, Shan Hartsough, Mike Hilda- brand, and John Morris were very important with their excel- lent team attitude. They lead by example, if you lead by example, then you won ' t be resented. We had sen- iors who lead by example well in the school, and in the com- munity, he continued. In the latter part of the sea- son the Redskins gained some- thing very important, a winning attitude. I think as far as the attitude at the end of the year we were expecting to win, said the coach. Ryan thought the same. We gained a winning atti- tude. We brought back some of the ingredients for a winning team. He added, Hopefully it will set building blocks for fu- ture years.

Goshen High School athletes were fortunate to have access to someone dedicated to help- ing them when they were disa- ble: Mr. Don Ogle. Ogle held the title of athletic trainer, a title he thought didn ' t really define his profession. One of the problems of the training profession is that it ' s an undefined profession. Peo- ple outside of athletics have no idea what my job is when I say I ' m an athletic trainer, he ex- plained. Actually, Ogle ' s job was not centered at all around the training of athletes. My main jobs, as I see it is the evaluation of injuries in their accute stages and deci- sion making on the best way to handle the injury, said Ogle. Aside from his main duties. Ogle ' s occupation also entailed numerous responsibilities such as supervising the training room, ordering supplies, and running the student trainers program. The student trainers pro- gram was very important to Ogle. The student trainers were responsible for whether or not I have a good year. If I have a good bunch my year will run smoothly, he said. The trainers were Kim Kurtz and Keri Juday, seniors; Mike McEachran and Cindy Wilfong, juniors; Jeff Wingard, Randy Smith, and Mike VanderRey- den, sophomores; and Greg Miller, freshman. The group was highly thought of by its mentor. Fortunately, I ' ve hand picked my group, and they ' re really stable, Ogle said. Duties of the student train- ers were varied and often time consuming. The students ad- Training kept me involved — VanderReyden ministered basic first aid treat- ment, performed many taping techniques, and were responsi- ble for much of the mainten- ance of the training room. The students also aided Ogle by traveling with many of the GHS teams. They travel with every sport that I don ' t, and they cover events that I don ' t, said Ogle. Although the trainers may spend many hours performing their jobs, they still enjoyed training. I enjoy the medical field. Training allowed me the chance to meet a lot of peo- ple, commented Kurtz. It kept me active in sports. Training kept me involved, said VanderReyden. The students were also com- pensated for their time with athletic letters. A trainer let- ters when he puts 200 hours into his or her job. Especially dedicated student trainers were rewarded for their work by having their pic- ture placed on the student trainer wall of fame in the train- ing room. A trainer must have performed at least 1000 hours of training in order to make the wall of fame. In order to achieve the posi- tion of student trainer, the stu- dent must attend a sports medicine camp where he must learn the rudiment of athletic injury treatment. Ogle also considered other qualifications when he selected his student assistants. I look for a kid that pos- sesses certain qualities. De- pendability and reliability are the two most important ones. The ability to get along with the athletes is also important. Good grades are important, but only after the first three, he said. There ' s nothing better than working in a high school, Ogl believed. Being involved in a first-rate athletic program is fun, he stated. Nonetheless, it was the per sonal aspect of training that Ogle found most enjoyable. The relationships that de velop with coaches and ath letes, that ' s what I find most rewarding, he said. Along with the benefits of training. Ogle also saw several drawbacks in his occupation The long hours of stress were a disheartening aspect of train- ing. The job, if done properly, can be very stressful, he stat ed. Making medical decisions for kids can be very stressful. Complicating the decisions Ogle had to make was the fact he ' s not a medical doctor and. therefore, not qualified to per form all medical functions. There are some injuries, that require advanced medical! attention, such as x-rays andl possible surgeries, ' he noted. Although Ogle did enjoy his job as trainer at GHS, he re- signed. , General burnout was rea- son for leaving training at GHS.

Surely, the thought of this fresh au- tumn air must loom distantly in the minds of the gladiators as they pound through the long, hot summer practices. Again, this envigorating fall air was an integral part of the gridiron contests at Goshen High School. However, those who participated in and attend- ed the GHS games couldn ' t help but notice something new and different in the atmo- sphere that pervaded GHS ' s pigskin battles. The most prominent reason behind the new atmosphere was that a GHS legend, Mr. Ken Mirer, resigned as head foot- ball coach after the 1984 sea- son, having compiled an 81-36 record during his ten year reign. Mr. Randy Robertson, an assistant to Mirer during the glory days, became the new GHS head coach. Acknowledging the impact that this coaching change made, Robertson said, It ' s hardest on the seniors when a new coach comes in. They ' ve spent two years under the old coach. I must say that I ' m very pleased with this year ' s sen- iors. They responded well to the change and worked hard. Shan Harsough, All-State senior, also addressed the coaching change. When we first found out about the change, everyone wondered. Everyone was a bit apprehensive about the new coach and everything. He (Robertson) changed all that. He ' s an excellent coach, said the defensive back. The second contributor to the new atmosphere was the result of a new all-inclusive playoff format. This new sys- tem allowed GHS to participate in the state tournament for the first time since 1981. The first playoff game was a memorable one as the Skins upset Homestead on the Fort Wayne school ' s home field. Robertson thought the Homestead victory was largely due to the dedication of the team ' s seniors. The seniors worked hard. They made the Homestead game possible, he noted. Tom Unzicker, senior guard, found the playoff victory to be the highlight of the season. The Homestead game was great. It made everything worthwhile. It ' s nice to win in the playoffs, he commented. Although the Homestead game may have been the sea- son ' s highlight, it also set the Skins up for a major disap- pointment. In the second playoff game, GHS lost heartbreaker to local rival Concord by the score of 6- 0. The team finished with a 6-4 record, (by Rick Snyder) p82j-| ' Jeff Loucks cuts upfield.

With the top four teams in each sectional advancing, the boys edged into the Regional by placing fourth. This marked the fifth consecu- tive year that the boys have qualified for Regional competi- tion. The Regional meet was, how- ever, disappointing as the boys could manage only a tenth place finish. Also a disappointment for the boys was their overall sea- son record of 7-11. However, the poor record can be attrib- uted largely to the caliber of the competition the boys faced. Head coach Rick Clark thought the boys competed well considering the opponents they battled. We ran against tough com- petition. Five of eleven losses came to teams ranked in the top 20 (of the State). We just didn ' t have the horses to com- pete with those teams. With teams of our caliber, we did well. Not exceptional, but well, the coach said. The team had a tough time competing against State- ranked squads mainly because it lacked a top front-runner. We didn ' t have a front-run- ner, but we had a good pack, the number one man bounced back and forth throughout the season, explained Clark. Senior runner Steve Guipe agreed with Clark ' s analysis for the team ' s troubles. Our pack consisted of five or six good runners. We just didn ' t have anybody out there in front picking-up points, he reasoned. The team ' s tightly-knit pack of leaders usually consisted of Craig Lockerbie; Dave Massen- gill; Tom Roberts; Guipe; sen- iors, and Dan Eger; Jody Miller; and Tim Mitchell; juniors, (by Rick Snyder) After breaking free of the trailing pack, Harriers at GHS are accustomed to Dan Eger finishes alone, (by Whittern) coach Clark ' s frequent lectures, (by Whittern) .-84 _, Boys Cross Country BOYS CROSS COUNTRY Overall record: 7-11 GHS 0pp. 42 Penn 17 15 West Noble 45 34 East Noble 21 34 Westville 21 15 Lavllle 49 20 Jimtown 43 50 Plymouth 15 15 Rochester 50 47 Warsaw 15 28 Northridge 29 30 Northwood 27 30 Wawasee 25 47 East Noble 15 44 F.W.

Mixture triumphs Battle-scarred veterans and green youngsters combined to make the 1985 Goshen High School girls cross country team. The gritty veterans, Carrie Grise and Annette Rhoades, seniors; Kim Lehr and Sue Hershberger, juniors; provided the brunt of the girls ' scoring punch, while acting as a stabi- lizing force during the arduous season. Jodie Clark, freshman, and Jackie Wray, sophomore, were two newcomers to the harrier scene who didn ' t let their inex- perience hinder them. Both consistently placed well, finish- ing the season as the team ' s second and third highest point scorers, respectively. Ironically, Wray thought her inexperience was beneficial, especially in the early season. The lack of experience kind of helped me because no one expected me to do as well as I did. It was actually easier at the beginning of the season, before there was any pressure on me, she explained. The team ' s strange melange of veteran runners and neo- phytes was successful as it posted a record of 8-3. We had a good mixture of girls this year. The differences in age and experience helped all of us to perform better, said Grise, the team ' s MVP-and top point scorer. Although the team achieved a reasonable amount of suc- cess, Mr. Rick Clark, coach, thought the girls never com- peted to the apex of their abili- ties. We never reached our full potential in a race, the coach said. Even without that, this group did a good job. (by Rick Snyder) r BOYS TENNIS Overall record: 10-8 GHS 0pp. Elk. Central 5 2 W.

However, good fortune and a determined effort allowed the team to turn itself around and end with a winning record. Good fortune came in the form of Bruce Grevengoed, senior, who returned to the GHS squad ten matches into the season, having moved to North Carolina after attending GHS for two years. Coach Mike Rozelle thought Gravengoed, although only 4-9 on the season, was a great as- set for the team. Even though his record wasn ' t too good, the team im- proved. He gave the team more depth, Rozelle said. The added depth was evi- dent in the teams abrupt mid- season turnaround. Breaking its early-season slump, the team won seven consecutive matches. The winning streak culminat- ed at the LaPorte Invitational where the team defeated La- Porte, who was ranked 19 in the State at the time. The win over LaPorte was our best win of the year. It was the highlight of the season, said Terry Slabach, senior. However, the team ' s good play did not surface at the sec- tional. The boys were upset by Elkhart Memorial. The Reds- kins had previously defeated them in the regular season. We didn ' t execute well against Memorial. We should have beaten them, stated Grevengoed. The team leaders were Sla- bach, Troy Watson, who trans- ferred to GHS for the 1985-86 school year, and Grevengoed. Slabach, playing the number two and three singles spots, finished the season at 19-5, and was named as the team ' s MVP. Watson compiled a record of 12-11 in the number one and two singles positions.

Our ability wasn ' t as good 3s last years, but I thought this earn worked well together, ;aid Hess. Kettlebar was in agreement. I thought this group worked well. Of all the teams I have been with, they played some of the best matches, added Kettlebar. The Redskin invitational and Elkhart Sectional were high and low points for the team. Winning our invitational was a high point. We felt we had a good shot at sectional. It fell short in our loss to Wawasee, said Kettlebar. The squad was compliment- ed on its play by Hess. We didn ' t give up, we kept playing until the last point.

These goals, both team and individual ori- ented, proved to be important to the team. One of our goals was to win more matches than the pre- vious year and be competitive by sectional time. We also wanted each of the girls to shoot a competitive best dur- ing the season, explained Mr. Wayne Lambright, coach. These attainable, but still dif- ficult, goals were fulfilled during the season. The effort the girls put while striving for their goals was evi- dent in their record.

The Skins began their season with a new head coach, Mr. Mike Sorrell, and a new cap- tain, Ryan Sorrell, senior, Mike ' s son. Mr. Sorrell had one goal. We had to improve the im- age of the GHS basketball pro- gram. The t erm we use is put pride back. The way you do it is give kids hope, said the elder Sorrell. The previous bad image changed as students and fans began to back the Skins, espe- cially after an overtime win to Bremen 55-51. With about five minutes to go Coach Sorrell was ejected from the game and gymnasium with three technical fouls issued within a span of 12 seconds. Sorrell left a packed, yelling gym, and the Skins were poised for a dramatic come- back. After being down 14 points, the Redskins rallied to tie it at the end of regulation. The crowd exploded and began to chant, Go Big Red! The Redskins left the rau- cous crowd with a hard-earned victory for their record, but more importantly they gained the ever-important winning at- titude. It turned sectional time. The boys won the first game. beating the Penn Kingsmen 66- 45. The second game was against Elkhart Central. Coach Sorrell said before the Skins played Central in the regular season the Blue Blazer ' s head coach, Mr. Ed McDowell said on a radio show that Goshen will no longer be an easy win. It wasn ' t easy as both clubs played for 41 minutes for a spot in the championship round. The Skins won in a triple overtime thriller 55-49. The scene was set. It would be the Concord Minutemen, who at the beginning of the year was favored to win the sectional, and Goshen, who wasn ' t supposed to make it out of the first round. Northside Gym was filled to capacity. The Skins led at the end of the third quarter, but couldn ' t hold on. The Redskins season was end- ed by one point 48-47. We were not happy coming within one point in the section- al. Our expectations were to win that game, said Coach Sorrell.

The season had many high- lights including a one game un- der .500 record in the NLC (3- 4), and the 150th win by long- time Coach Miss Dori Keyser. The most positive thing that came out of the year was the attitude. They had the abili- ty to get along with each oth- er, said Keyser about the team. There were a lot good posi- tive attitudes and comradary on the team this year, echoed Tracey Streit, senior and tri- captain. The varsity squad started out the season with a three game winning streak. The first part of the season culminated with a loss to a tough Elkhart Memori- al club. Memorial was rated in the State. A few free throws here or there, we might have beat them, Keyser said. Even though the Skins came out on the short end of this game there were better ones to come. We beat better teams be- cause we were together as a team, said Keyser. They ' re weren ' t any indivi- duals. Everybody had the de- sires to work together to win the games, said Streit. At the beginning of the NLC season the squad ran into trou- ble. The third game of the NLC was when Tracey (Streit) got hurt.

Aside from the usual wres- tling-identifiers, black eyes and bruised bodies, the mat-men of 1986 were especially conspicu- ous because of their attire: white tee-shirts emblazoned with red print stating, Keep the Tradition Alive. Depth within the program proved to be the team ' s savior as many promising youngsters combined with the team ' s few veterans to make the season, as tradition would dictate, a victorious one. We didn ' t have too many returning varsity wrestlers, but we had a lot of talented youn- ger guys who kept the program strong, said Tom Unzicker, senior and tri-captain. Highlighting the team ' s suc- cess was its capturing sectional and regional titles for the third consecutive year. Also an honor for the team was the Indiana High School Athletic Association ' s selecting GHS to host one of the State ' s four semi-state tournaments. Goshen ' s team was well represented at the semi-state as seven wrestlers: Brad Bon- trager, Andy Ecklebarger, Jody Miller, Randy Rock, Mike Wit- trig, Harold Schmucker, and Scott Claybaugh qualified for competition. However, only Bontrager, a 105 pound sophomore, ad- vanced to the State meet. He did not place in the State com- petition. Along with the team ' s suc- cess at the sectional and re- gional levels, Mr. John De- chant, coach, was pleased with the team ' s improvement. I thought the team pro- gressed well. We improved as a team and as individual wres- tlers, said Dechant. The team even wrestled tougher squads for better com- petition. We upgraded our schedule this year.

Having four qualifiers for State convinced Coach Mr. Rick Clark that his team had been good. The season was definitely successful in the way of individ- ual competition, he said. It was a successful campaign. We thought we were very competi- tive. Headlining the successful team were Craig Lockerbie, senior; Alan Carpenter, Rich Fairfield, juniors; and Doug Hershberger, sophomore. Lockerbie, Conant, and Car- penter each set school records in their specialties. Lockerbie established a new pole vault standard of 14 ' 7 . Conant sailed 6 ' 8 1 4 in the high jump for his record, and Car- penter long jumped a record distance of 22 ' 4 1 2 . Breaking the pole vault re- cord was like a dream come true, said Lockerbie. The talents of GHS competi- tors was also manifest in the Indiana High School Athletic Association ' s State tourna- ment. GHS boasted two individual sectional champs, Lockerbie and Carpenter, one regional champion, Conant, and four State meet qualifiers: Locker- bie, Conant, Fairfield, and Hershberger. Team members, as well as Clark, thought the win of the Goshen Relays proved the highlight of the season. The Goshen Relays exhibit- ed the competitive spirit of this team, said Clark. We had a lot of good individual perfor- mances which equated into a team victory. Although the team pos- sessed quality members, a lack of depth was the Redskins ma- jor weakness. This problem led to only a third place finish in the NLC. We competed well, but War- saw had the numbers as far as how many people were com- peting well, Clark said. Nonetheless, placing second in sectional and third in region- al showed that the team worked competitively, (by Rick Snyder) Boys Track Overall record: 5-4-2 fl GHS opr 1st Culver Invite. 52 Penn 52 50 Elk.

Jodi Clark and Amy Leather- man were two freshmen who made contributions to the team. Leatherman scored fre- quently in the hurdle events and high jump. Clark blos- somed late in the season and became the team ' s premier striving to outsprint a Warsaw com- petitor.

In that event Clark was the team ' s only sectional champion, and also the team ' s only qualifier for the State meet as she placed third at the Fort Wayne Regional with a school record time of 2:22. Aside from the freshmen ' s contributions, the girls were led by a variety of team mem- bers. The team ' s top scorer was Shawn Whittern, junior. Competing in three events, high jump, shot put and discus, gave me plenty of chances to score well, even if I had an off day in a certain events. Howev- er, I was more concerned with my performances and not my point totals, Whittern said. Other high scorers for the team were Jenny Drolet, soph- omore; Carrie Grise, senior; Leatherman and Clark. Along with Clark, Drolet qualified for the regional, ad- vancing there by a fourth place effort in the sectional 200 m. The team placed sixth in the Elkhart Sectional, a feat that pleased Watson. I ' m pleased with the team ' s sectional effort. Still, I ' m not satisfied.

In our sectional, it was very difficult to aim higher than sec- ond this year, said long time coach, Mr. Doug Cartwright. The Skins played respectably enough for a 5-2 NLC record. It was the fourth time in the past five years that the team made it to the sectional final. Al- though the girls didn ' t get the conference title, they did make it back to back DeKalb Invita- tional champions. Stauffer finished the year with a 25-1 record. She easily swallowed all of her opponents in sectional and regional. How- ever, she lost to the State win- ner, who ended the season 100-0 at Indianapolis.

Our biggest disappointment was having Ingrid injured. It was a personal disappointment for her, and it contributed to our fall to third in the confer- ence, Cartwright said. Hess and Stauffer were very important to the team. The leadership they gave was absolutely necesssary to our winning season, Cart- wright noted. The season ended with a re- cord of 12-4.

Furthermore, this lengthy stretch of consecutive victo- ries proved especially sweet because it signified something of the larger importance, such as team desire and unity. One highlight of the season was when we were 2-11, and we won five matches in a row, said Mr. Wayne Lambright, head coach. The fact that the team re- bounded successfully after a dismal start was, to as large de- gree, a statement of the boys ' competitive fortitude. Overall, there was a definite improvement in team perfor- mance and unity during the season, said Lambright. I feel as though the players were really rooting for each other.

Lambright was a sec- ond team all — NLC selection; Wolf led the team in the NLC tournament with a score of 82. Although the team improved throughout the season, it was unable to realize a goal of quali- fying for regional. Nonetheless, the team ' s sixth place sectional effort over its tenth place finish of a year ago, as well as the upward movement in the NLC stand- ings, proved that the team indeed improved, (by Rick Sny- der) Right on target, Trent Lambright putts on a nice May day. ,-109-, Bo ya G el n « • -J - ■m u 1 pr .

By June 9, the Reds- cins were champions of both he NLC and the Goshen Sec- Honal, ending the season at 24- 10. The team ' s drastic transfor- |nation to a championship club was attributed to two factors, according to Mr. Mike Ritter, assistant coach. Our pitching and our overall ittitude made the difference, Mid Ritter. When you ' re .500, beople start to have some doubts. We pulled through be- cause everybody tried to pick everybody up. Much of the team ' s resiliant quality was the result of its sen- ior members. The seniors weren ' t satis- fied when we were 6-6. They kept working hard, Ritter said. All of the seniors de- served credit because they all contributed. Ryan Sorrell, senior and catcher, deserved special no- tice. Sorrell tied the GHS re- cord for single season home runs with seven round-trippers. More importantly, four of Sor- rell ' s blasts came in the sev- enth inning or later, including a last-inning shot against NLC foe Concord to clinch the con- ference title. Paving the way for Sorrell ' s clutch blasts was the Redskins talented pitching corp of Kevin Wildfong, junior, Dennis Wilcox and Todd Iwema, seniors. The fact that the Redskins possessed three superior hurlers aided in their late sea- son charge for the NLC title. We always had a fresh arm to throw against conference teams, said Ritter. Capturing the NLC crown re- a PP i mained meaningful as it was GHS ' s first conference cham- pionship. This year was the reward because we felt we fell a little bit short last year, said Mark Miller, senior. We felt that this year we got what we de- served. Even though Sorrell threw out three South Bend Washing- ton players trying to steal base in the first round of regionals, GHS lost 0-1. It took seven in- nings before the Redskins al- lowed Washington to score its winning run. (by Rick Snyder) Varsity Baseball — Front row: Brian VanderReyden, Kevin Doss. Ron Hern- ley.

The girls entered as two-time defending champs. However, the girls knew that they ' d need more than tradition to be victo- rious. Earlier meets made it evi- dent that there was equality among the top conference teams. Goshen and Wawasee appeared to be identical as they tied in both their regular season clashes. Concord was also a team to be reckoned with. They ran a close third be- hind co-champs Goshen and Wawasee in the Goshen Relays. Tension ran high when the conference meet rolled around. The meet figured to be a tight three-team race. How- ever, the battle was rather anticlimactic. Led by double-winners Shel- ley Bardwell, junior, and Mar- garet Shrock, sophomore, the girls assumed their traditional position of dominance and won by more than 30 points. Bardwell, reflected on the NLC meet. The conference meet was pretty tense, but we swam well and won easily, she said. The girls also performed well in the Elkhart Sectional meet. They placed a strong second behind eventual State runner- up Elkhart Central. We did fairly well in the sec- tional meet. Central was just too tough to beat, comment- ed Julie Keidaish, MVP and senior. Four GHS girls advanced from the sectional to the State meet in Indianapolis. Julie Hertzler, junior; Tami Mitchell, sophomore; Keidaish, and Bardwell qualified in the 400 freestyle relay. Bardwell also qualified in the 50 and 100 freestyle events, placing 15th in the latter, (by Rick Snyder) A li .V %A y ? 7 n GIRLS SWIMMING — Front Row: Jenn Nofziger, Jenny Drolet, Heather Vin- cent, Susan Hertzler, Tracy Ralston, Michelle Keidaish.

These simple words, written by Greg Brady and sung by Pe- ter Brady during one classic episode of The Brady Bunch, hold, as most Goshen High School seniors have realized, as universal truth. The changes through which the class of ' 86 has endured are many, affecting the aca- demic as well as the extra-cur- ricular lives of the students. For instance, the class wit- nessed changes in the head coaching positions of the varsi- ty boys football and basketball teams, as well as constant re- shuffling of coaches in smaller sports. Those active in the GHS mu- sic department also saw changes. The choir and the Crimsonaires modulated as Ms. Marcia Yost replace Mr. G. Merrill Swartley in 1983. The administration and guid- ance departments of GHS also proved to be susceptible to change throughout the four years. Two of the three mem- bers of the GHS administra- tion, Dr. Brad Pressler and Mr. Jim Kouts, weren ' t at GHS until fall of 1985. The Guidance De- partment was changed greatly with the retirement of Mrs. Berniece Dwyer in 1985. Although the athletic, music, and guidance departments, as well as the administration, of GHS have changed with the passage of time, it was aca- demic changes that were obvi- ous at GHS. Academically, GHS has un- dergone numerous changes, most notably, a shortened lunch period, longer instruc- tional periods, an elimination of school convocations and pep rallies during school hours, and an elimination of senior release time. All of the academic changes are a direct result of the State Legislature ' s mandating educa- tional reform in the package of the Time On Task law. That law forced GHS to give its students 360 minutes of instructional time per day, which increased class time to 60 minutes. Many seniors questioned the changes. Changes are maybe for the good of the sutdent, but for me as a student, it ' s hard to see it that way, said Paul Fehring. Julie Keidaish expressed thoughts similiar to Fehring ' s, saying, I think some of the changes are for the good of the students, but some are also a little extreme. Also displeased with thi changes was Alan Holder. Through the attempts ti better the school, I feel then has been a decrease in studen activity and school spirit, h said. Showing more displeasur with the GHS ' s changes wer Tom Unzicker and Carrie Grise Said Grise, It stinks. Aca demies hadn ' t increased at al No one uses the extra five mir utes, anyway. What do I think about th changes? asked Unzicker I ' m glad I ' m leaving.

Goshen High School stu- dents who have wandered through many a dull week- end night can attest to this fact. The obvious solution to the weekend doldrums, trav- el to a more exotic locale, is not a realistic possibility for most teens, as they lack the necessary financial re- sources. Under relentless pressure to have some weekend fun, however, GHS students have been known to become at least slightly creative in uncovering activities. We send out for pizza and get the gang together and watch movies, said Tina Lambright, junior. Others such as Mark Kramer, junior, enjoy more radical social activities.

(by Feeney) The step between the freshman and sophomore classes is often consid- ered a major change. With this new found ma- turity, sophomores also find another veritable pot- of-gold: an Indiana Dri- ver ' s License. This license is crucial to sophomores because, not only does it grant exces- sive freedom, it also is ac- tually a status symbol. A icense can have many advantages and also, many disadvantages. One advantage is going out on a date without the parental taxi service. One disadvantage would be the constant nagging of non-licensed persons to be their personal chaf- feur. You have to learn to say no to your friends sometimes, said Jay Shetler, sophomore. Licensed driver Laurie Peterson explained, When you have your own car you have to learn to be more responsible be- cause it ' s something that I paid for, and I don ' t want it ruined. However, a license doesn ' t simply make life perfect. A license gives you a lot of freedom.

However, to Mr. Elmer Bow- ers, high school education is a way of life. Bowers has been teaching for 35 years, 28 of which are at Goshen High School. Of course before advancing to his pre- sent status. Bowers has spent much time preparing for his ca- reer. After spending his childhood years in New Paris, Indiana, and graduating from New Paris High School, Bowers pursued his interest at Manchester Col- lege. He received his graduate degree from Ohio State. He has also studied at Rutgers and Oakridge Insitute of Nuclear Studies. Bowers has been teaching chemistry and physics at GHS and had some experience teaching grades seven and eight. He ' s appreciated the older student. The interation with school students has been an enjoy- ment for me. It keeps me young, stated Bowers. Bowers enjoyed his occupa- tion because it demanded a lot of creativity. His greatest joy was lecturing and teaching in the classroom. It is my interest field, and when class begins I am my own boss, said Bowers. Over his 35 years of teach- ing. Bowers noticed that the methods of instruction and evaluation that are used have gone from one extreme to the other and have returned again. His methods of computation has gone from using the slide ruler to calculators to comput- ers. However, the ability to learn and study science has not changed. There is no differ- ence in change fundamentally over the years, and the basic nature of teaching is not differ- ent, said Bowers. Being elected Outstanding Chemistry Teacher in Indiana by the American Chemical So- ciety Is one of Bower ' s honors. Surviving in the classroom for 35 years has to be an out- standing accomplishment, he said.

These jobs range from working in a depart- ment store to working in fast- food or other related restau- rants. Kenda Resler, senior, gave horse riding lessons to all peo- ple, including mentally handi- capped children. I enjoyed my job because I worked at home, and I could set my own hours, she said. Others, however, didn ' t work at home. I enjoyed working with peo- ple, and got to as a waitress (at Azars), said Kim Sorrell, freshman, who worked after school and on weekends. I felt that I benefited the community by serving people food and sometimes cheering people up when they came into the restaurant feeling down, Sorrell said. A high proportion of Goshen High School students worked during the school year. This gave them a chance to be out in the community providing an important workforce and standing out as providing good spirit to its people, (by Monica Martz) vIh y k ■ 1: Dry cleaning can be a dirty business.

Indiana Hospital Asso- ciation has compiled a list of 200 exciting careers available in Indiana hospitals today. For example, you could be employed in an Indiana hospi- tal as a communications spe- cialist—in marketing, public relations, or health education. Ilxiana Hosptd Association Or maybe you ' re more in line with computers— be a systems analyst or programmer. If num- bers figure in your future, con- sider accounting, purchasing or payroll. The list goes on — dieti- tian, personnel director, medi- cal secretary, housekeeper. Closer to traditional health careers are opportunities as a physical therapist; medical lab technician; and nurse or physi- cian working in every medical field from pediatrics to mental health. HOSPITALS- WHERE CAREERS ARE BORN. But did you know you could also be a biomedical engineer? A radiologic technologist, medi- cal record administrator, or a nuclear medicine technologist? Hospitals offer exciting careers that will continue to provide new and challenging opportuni- ties as you grow with them. Indiana hospitals need Indiana people.

These jobs may range from fast food and clerk type jobs to com- munity jobs such as working at the hospital to life-guard- ing at the Goshen High School pool. Tami Mitchell has helped her community by life- guarding at the GHS pool. She served as life-guard ev- ery noon hour during this time is open to the public. There are many advan- tages related to this type of job. It gave me the chance to meet new people, and now when I see them, it ' s like I ' ve known them for a long time, the sophomore said. I ' ve made many new friends, not just young peo- ple, but older people also, Mitchell explained. A typical day for Mitchell would be to sit on the bleachers or board box and watch the people while they swim to make sure they didn ' t have any problems in the pool. It is very seldom that a se- rious problem would occur; however, Mitchell always had to be ready for any- thing. One time, she said, I looked away from a cer- tain elderly man in the pool for just a few seconds and when I looked back, I couldn ' t see him. I got very worried be- cause this man has a pace- maker in his heart. I kept looking for him and finally saw that he had gone under water. I started to get in the water and see if he was all right, but just then he came up from under the water and was just fine. Mitchell ' s life-guarding at GHS for her community has given her a new experience that has developed her knowledge about swimming and life-guarding. Her exper- ience with swimming and her like for people has made Goshen a better community, (by Cozetta Rassi) Keeping an eye on older swimmers is Tami Mitchell, (by Snyder) El67n Community- %« ' t For The Latest In Misses And Junior Fashions 201 South Main Street • Goshen, Indiana 46526 (219) 533-2290 LEWALLEN ELECTRIC INC.

(by Root) Red: the end Seniors leave with future ahead April finally came and with it came Spring Break. Many students rushed off to Flor- ida for the week, while oth- ers had to endure the rain in Goshen. When students returned, it was only a matter of weeks until school would be out. For freshmen, it would be the end of their first year in high school. Sophomores finished what was half of their high school career, while juniors began to realize that they would at last be seniors. Meanwhile, the seniors began to awaken with the realization that college and their future were no longer a distant item. Graduation was not only graduation, but it was different this time through. Before it had been the other seniors, but this time it ws for real. Another year was finished and Goshen High School be- came a better school. Among the area schools, once again Goshen stood out, because red stood out.

It ' s hard to single out one memory from high school, but what I appreci- ate the most is the friend- ships that I developed, said Steve Yoder, senior. Friends often made one feel safe and secure.
