Why, Hammond High, of course. We started in eighteen eightyfour. And grew with a powerful force. As we started in the eighteen hundreds. We were such a small school, But as the nineteen hundreds entered. Our school grew and grew and grew. We started off rather well; The eighteen hundreds were full of goals and aims, Until Dark Wednesday in nineteen sixty seven. When our dreams went up in flames. But that did not stop our spirit; We rebuilt our school rather well. With leaders like Doc and Ms. Ennis, To help us get out of our shells. Now that we face the future. We will grow to new heights, Using the mind instead of the computer. We will put up a great fight. dPjjfifcr ' .. w ' 1 iJhL9 ? % f A Centennial Birthday is cer- tainly a special event to com- memorate, but at Hammond High School we also had many other occasions to celebrate. Hammond High experienced a kind of rebirth in 1983-84. There was a new, positive feeling about the school in the com- munity and in the halls. We combined our proud heritage with new traditions and made a school worth celebrating. In fact, it could be said that anything the Wildcats put their hearts into became an event and a celebration! PELEBRATE! The Irish essayist, George Bernard Shaw, once said, Progress is im- possible without change. The 1983-1984 school year brought with it many changes. Among these changes, the presence of a new principal - Ms. Elizabeth Ennis. Ms. Ennis feels that in order to create a better environment, full of order and discipline, it is necessary to make changes. Several of . the changes made this year were the paint job, the tardy policy, and the addition of new clubs. When asked if there would be some changes that would be hard to enforce, Ms. Ennis replied, Limits ex- ist only in the mind. This means that nothing is impossible when someone sets his mind to it. Without changes, we would not have been able to turn this school in- to what people expect. The Tardy Policy The 1983-84 school year brought about a new rule — the tardy policy. It allowed no student to be in the hall during classtime without a pass. If a student was late to class, that student had to report to the detention center. After four tardies a student was placed in In School Suspension. When asked about the tardy policy, Mr. Urick, a math teacher, replied: ”1 think it was a good idea. It will separate the responsible students from the irresponsible ones. Unfortunately, some students at H.H.S. used the tardy policy to their advantage. Some students who didn ' t have their homework done, went to the detention center to get it done. The Paint Job Sophomores, juniors, Seniors, and other returnees to Hammond High probably noticed the new paint job the second they stepped through the doors when we returned. The paint job was begun in mid-june, which created problems and made for very hectic times, since summer school was still is session. Summer school students dodged ladders and painters, and at times it seemed like every doorway was blocked by the workmen. The paint job took little over a month to complete, but to some it seemed like a summer-long project. Ms. Ennis was responsible for the choice of paint colors. Her main reason for having the paint job done was to add more life to the school. There have been varying opinions on the colors that were chosen. The colors are turquoise on the third floor, as opposed to the darker blue of last year, peach on the second floor, which was originally yellow, gray for the first floor compared to the brown of last year, and in the stairwells, which were brown last year, gray paint has been painted over. A reddish brown took over the school doors, which were gray last year. The most dramatic change in the school was the paint that was put over the mural on the third floor landing. This mural was thought by many For many years Hammond High School had a big problem. We were losing our school spirit by not par- ticipating in extracurricular activities. The real truth was, there weren ' t many clubs to choose from. Of course there were sports and cheerleading and other activities that every other school had, but what if a person wasn ' t interested in becom- New Organizations ing a cheerleader? Well, fortunately for these such people, H.H.S. put together some new clubs. One of these clubs was the Health Careers Club where a per- son could learn more about the medical field from our school nurse, Mrs. Perz. Another new club was the Centennial Celebration Committee. to be the most beautiful thing in the school, but it was painted over ac- cidentally with turquoise color. Some liked the idea of new colors at H.H.S. I like it. I think it was a good idea to paint the school because I like some of the colors I have seen, said junior Lillian Casillas. Another opinion on the colors chosen by Ms. Ennis was that of Senior Tim jones. I don ' t feel that the color contrast fits the school ' s im- age, he said. Tim felt that more suitable colors should have been chosen by the administration for the paint job, like different shades of red and blue, jones added. This club helped the school celebrate its 100th birthday. Also, there was a new club for the students who went to Notre Dame over the summer vacation for a leadership seminar. This club was called Student Leaders in Progress. They were very active in trying to promote participation in our school. ■ r- “gTUDENT LIFE PROM ’83 Night to Treasure Prom 1983 was held on Friday, May 13, 1983 at Harold ' s Club in Lynwood, Illinois. The Class of 1984 had worked for three years to raise funds so they could provide a nice prom for the Class of 1983 and their efforts paid off, in that everyone enjoyed Truly. T aters. Potatoes and beef were among the courses for dinner at Prom. Dinner was an experience in itself, said Terri O ' Brien, one prom goer. Perhaps the nervousness of the couples accounted for the fact that after dinner there was more food left on plates than in stomachs. u R oyalty. Susie Vukovich and Mark Nondort were announced Prom Queen and King. They shared a dance together, then the rest of the Prom Court joined in. mbrella. Rain on prom night - the ultimate disaster for prom goers All those hours in front of the mirror were in danger of being made into wasted hours by the downpour on the night of the prom. Some girls had become quite upset about their hair getting wet while walking from car to door, but fortunately everyone was able to pul! himself or herself together by the time prom pictures were taken by Allen Photography. L aughter Prom was a time for fun and enjoyment that waf taken advantage of by alt who attended. Pawnz, the very talented band that played for the dance, kicked off the evening with their first song, im- mediately the dance floor was filled. Students were going absolutely crazy, dancing The Bunny Hop and The Twist in addition to many dances never even heard of before. Some even went so far as to climb on one another ' s shoulders as a really original form of expression. Students weren ' t the only ones having a good time, however. The Hammond High Faculty came out on to the dance floor to let their hair down also. Dr. Feuerbach had an exceptionally great time. He was at one point dancing with thre e girls at one time! Y ears to come. Certainly Prom 1983, Truly, will be a memory that all who attended will cherish for years to come. Everyone looked very nice and enjoyed the rare chance to go formal, although there was little - formality and much love and friendship at Prom. Toward the end of Prom ' the traditional Grand March was held, during which each guy removed his date ' s garter. Soon after, everyone said their good-byes and thoughts turned to after-prom plans. Places couples went dur- ing Prom weekend included Great America, Shaeffer Lake, and Turkey Run. All in all. Prom 1983 was Truly a wonderful experience and one tj at no one whom attended will soon forget. Wasting no time in hitting the dance floor, the prom goers try to get as many dances in as they can in case their prom turns out to be like the one in the movie, Prom Night.

No, those events will only be memories to the celebrated participants of the day ' s ceremony. The basketball backboards have been moved out of the way, and a portable stage rolled in. Confetti squares left over from Homecoming, that were hidden in a hard to reach spot, have been swept up and metal folding chairs have been set in neat rows. Sweaty P.E. students have ex- ited for home and proud relatives, administrative heads, the band, and soon to be H.H.S. Alumni have entered. It is now 2:00 p.m. and time for an event that 235 students have worked and planned twelve hard years to attend - The H.H.S. Ninety-Seventh Annual Commence- ment Exercises. The program officially opens after the Class of 1983 makes its grand en- trance to the tune of Pomp and Cir- cumstance. Faculty members. School Board members. Valedic- torian Desi Earl, Salutatorian Dan Ventimiglia and Senior Class Presi- dent Paul Graska give speeches while several Seniors, dressed in purple or white mortar boards and robes, un- conciously recount the past month, the climax of their high school careers . . . There was Senior Ditch Day. Neither teachers nor parents com- plained when Seniors didn ' t attend classes that day. That certainly was odd! The legal hooky players used the day to fulfill yearnings that they had all year — to sleep all day, to ride The Edge at Great America, to paint Chicago red, etc. Then on May 18th, deserving twelfth graders received recognition for academic, athletic, and social suc- cess at Honors Day. The Class of 1983 shared its spotlight with Doc Feuerbach during the all-school pro- gram. This assembly, in which the Class of 1983 presented an electric adding machine to Doc, was the last time the entire school body and Dr. Feuerbach would be together before Doc ' s retirement. Seniors honored each other at the Senior Banquet. Awards such as: best legs, prettiest smile, class clown, etc. were given to a female and male whom other Seniors believed had the most outstanding qualities for the award. Suddenly, all wandering minds return to the gymnasium as the Seniors stand and march up to the stage to receive the piece of paper that abruptly starts the alienation of the new graduates from the student body. After the ceremony, the graduates cry together because they realize that commencement means beginning - a beginning of a new way of life, a life that won ' t constant- ly be shared as in high school. Tyra Norris. Paul Warner, Ricky Smith, Connie Baxter, and lames Addison march into one of the biggest moments of their lives. Student Life Graduation 13 Showing Senior spirit, Gina Morris, Kathy Campbell, and Robin Bethel get in the mood for the night ' s festivities. HOMECOMING ’83 A Special Dress Code for a Special Week Spirit Week 1983 got off to a futuristic start as students donned plastic garbage bags and heavier- than-normal make-up to celebrate 2084 Day. This day was chosen, as was 1884 Day, to link today ' s H.H.S. to that of yesterday and tomorrow. Although few people participated in 1884 Day, those who did made a true effort to capture the flavor of Hammond High ' s early days. Others, instead of reverting to 1884, took a time journey of 2000 years and en- joyed the popular but unofficial Toga Day. On Tuesday we got our first peek at the Homecoming Queen and Princess candidates. The Student Government Association presented a fashion show to introduce one of the largest Homecoming Courts — a total of 24 girls - in our history. Wednesday was the traditional Western Day, which had a larger turnout and the Association- sponsored hayride. Although only a small number of students attended, most who did felt it was a lot of fun. The halls were overrun with tots on Thursday as students saved some time in dressing for school by coming to school in their p.j. ' s. Stuffed animals and lollipops were common fixtures in most classrooms. Thursday afternoon, the cheerleaders and Pom-Kats decorated the yards of the Senior football players. Throughout the week the girls had been leaving tasty goodies - paid for out of their own pockets — in the players ' lockers. Friday was Class Colors Day. The halls were awash with waves of pur- ple, red, yellow, and green. The Freshmen benefitting from the un- common idea of decorating the hall near the office, won the hall decorating contest. Several organiza- tions snatched the opportunity to raise greenbacks while students were in a festive mood. The Freshman Class sold purple and white balloons while the Association vended cor- sages and boutonieres. Although the Homecoming Pep Rally was shortened to thirty minutes, the Wildcats showed the spirit that had been growing all week. The football players and cheerleaders were warmly received as was Dr. Feuerbach who returned to H.H.S. to join in the festivities. After school, a large number of students participated in the Homecoming Parade. The parade was unique this year. Four old fashioned cars and a horse and buggy were supplied by the Centen- nial Celebration Committee who wanted the city to know it was H.H.S. ' birthday. Also the parade had a large number of floats including the winning Swim Team and Senior Class floats. After the parade, the students slowly straggled home to prepare for the evening ' s festivities. 14 Student Life Homecoming Week During the Homecoming Parade, Centennial Celebration Committee members Kathy Aubruner and Tom Cunningham sing Happy Birthday to Hammond High while riding in a horse drawn carriage. Pom-Kats Ann Marzocchi, Mia Ginn, Erin Beck and Tricia Sperry try to prove that they can be like the Rockettes — even while on a moving vehicle. Nicole Wess struts her stuff while being presented at the Homecoming Fashion Show.

HOMECOMING ’83 Bzzt! The lights went on around the football field. As the ticket booths and refreshment stand got ready for business, the Oilers came to the field and both teams started warming up for the game. When the crowd started piling into the stands, Homecoming ' 83 was officially under way. HHS was to play the Whiting Oilers for the 1983 Homecoming game. Under the direction of Coach Zasada, the ' Cats scored a re- sounding victory over Whiting. Earlier in the week, elections were held for the 1983 Mr. Football. The winner for this year was Nick Anderson. We had many alumni come back to Hammond High for the game. Not only did they root on their old team, but they also did some reminiscing with the underclassmen friends they left behind. The Halftime activities were kicked off with the HHS Marching Band ' s rendition of Mr. Touchdown. The spotlight was then focused on the Pom-Kats, who did a routine to Shalamar ' s Dead Giveaway. Finally, the moment that everyone was waiting for - the Coronation of the Homecoming Court had come. The ordeal had started much earlier for the candidates; they had to be ready by seven-thirty, and were put in the Faculty Lounge until the big event . . The procession of candidates and escorts marched onto the football field while the Police ' s Every Breath You Take played in the background. There were also members of the Marine Corps marching onto the field to participate in the ceremony. Up in the booth. Association President Kristen Hill an- nounced the earth-shattering results: Freshman Princess: Shannon Long Sophomore Princess: Phoebe Glenn junior Princess: Judy Wells When the time came to announce the two Senior runner-ups for Homecoming Queen, suspense was building as Kristen asked, Do you really want to know? A loud Yes! was heard in the crowd, and we were told the results: Second Runner-up: Tami Moore First Runner-up: Nicole Wess Homecoming Queen: Cyndi Newton As the names were read, bouquets of roses were given to the winners. Congratulations to the winners were given, and the atmosphere was filled with emotion. After the game ended, many peo- ple went to the Association- sponsored Homecoming Dance in the gymnasium. A highlight of the evening was when H.H.S. ' s former principal, Doc Feuerbach, danced with Miss Ennis, our present principal. The day finally drew to a close. Everyone went home to remember one of the most hectic and exciting nights of the semester. 16 Student Life Homecoming Night Ira Smith takes off with the ball as a Wildcat tackle effectively does his job. lunior Quarterback Pat Waldron takes a break before hitting the field again to battle the Oilers.

Student Life Homecoming Night 17 SUMMER SEMINARS F rom St. Brieuc, France to Muncie, Indiana During the summer, Hammond High sent representatives all over In- diana and even to another state and country to soak up all kinds of experiences. Kristen Hill, after scoring high on a competitive test and surviving a French and English interview, was picked from students all over Indiana to be one of the members of the In- diana University Honors Foreign Language Program. The program in- cluded a summer long trip to France and acting, speaking, and studying only French. When she returned to H.H.S. in the Fall, Kristen told the French 5, 7, and 9 class all about France and shared new expressions she had learned. Also, there were many in- teresting tidbits like: the Mona Lisa is actually pretty small and that some French beaches have quite a few nudists (no, Kristen wasn ' t one of them.) When French 5, 7, 9 had a French breakfast, Kristen knew it wouldn ' t be authentic unless everyone drank their beverage out of a bowl. The group that traveled second farthest from Hammond was spon- sored for minority students by Notre Dame and the Amoco Oil Co. Renee chosen through a recommendation by a science teacher. Before jetting to Montana for the geology excur- sion, Renee and Dallas attended several local seminars. While hiking the hills and valleys of Montana, our geologists came eye to eye with nature specimens never seen in the polluted and crowded Calumet Region. They didn ' t totally rough the wilderness though, hotels and buses became a familiar site. Odoriferous Terre Haute, Indiana was the location for Hoosier Girls ' and Boys ' State (held during separate weeks) that was sponsored by the American Legion. A state was ex- actly what Garrard McClendon, Dallas Creighton, Mike Monberg, fill Wagner, and Kathy Aubruner were supposed to make at Indiana State University. The events of: being a member of an imaginary political par- ty; registering to vote; attending par- ty conventions; campaigning and running for an office; passing bills in the legislature; etc. were handled the same way as in the State of Indiana. Each delegate was a member of a ci- ty (the floor of the dormitory he lived on) which then formed the counties and the state. Positions held by H.H.S. delegates were: Wagner - County Councilman: Aubruner — State Secretary of Commerce, Natl. County Treasurer; Creighton — County Councilman; Monberg — Ci- ty Judge, Bodyguard of governor; McClendon — County Councilman. Also, Garrard served as a photog- rapher for the newspaper and Kathy was a reporter. Although the girls had to wear a dress every day and the boys had to march, the H.H.S. delegates thoroughly enjoyed the week. Meals and sleep were quite often skipped at the Ball State Journalism Seminars. This usually occurred because homework assignments were very demanding. Also, the fact that Muncie had a frightening record of 40 arsonist-set fires in the past months and the extra hot temperatures probably didn ' t help the matter. Many times these condi- tions made the editors giddy (Kathy: Who ' s out mowing the lawn at 3 a.m.? Julie: That ' s my fan! ) What the editors brought back from the editorial management and design classes can be seen in this year ' s publications. In the Fall, Hammond High was ready to launch with the powerful propulsion of talents developed dur- ing summer months. Montana Explorers Renee Sims and Dallas After getting only 20 hours of sleep during Creighton are happy to be back on the flat plains their week at Ball State, Kathy Aubruner and of Indiana.

RISTMAS TREES CHRISTMAS eather Outside Was Frightful Dij ' ya ever notice how the Christmas season takes up approx- imately 1 6 of the year? Well, it does! Starting in early November the moment all greedy-minded mer- chants can clear their shelves of Halloween costumes and then restock with Christmas supplies, and ending when a new holiday, New Year ' s, (that comforts like a security blanket) takes over preoccupations, the yuletide season can be counted as taking eight weeks. Although Christmas hasn ' t been covered in a yearbook for almost 40 years, this year ' s editors agreed that since the season takes up 1 6 of the year, it must be covered once again. Besides, this year ' s Christmas was so unique. Before Christmas break started on Dec. 22, there was a special excite- ment pressure felt around the school. The school almost exploded from it the week before vacation. Not even Homecoming can bring the same feeling. Nobody can possibly keep his mind totally on his work Miss Fisher, an English teacher, said she liked to stand in the hallway dur- ing this time and watch the excited students. Several Christmas activities at school helped the students get into an even more Christmasy mood. The Spanish classes wove God ' s eyes an- dhung them around school. They also had a pinata party. German classes decorated their room with handmade German Christmas cards. The French students practiced French Christmas carols and shared them with other classes the last day of school. With all the language classes making such beautiful contributions, the school had a type of Christmas Around the World. ' ' Watch out Museum of Science and Industry! For the first time in several years, the chorus and band presented a Christmas concert. Students watched the well-done show on Tuesday the 20th and it was again presented that evening for the parents. Two H.H.S. students had an op- portunity to share their views in the TIMES ' Curbside Comments that appeared in the Sunday, Dec. 18, 1983 paper. The question posed was - Which do you enjoy more - giving Yule presents or receiving them? Yvette Isom responded, Giving, because I feel good after making someone happy. On the other hand, Shanita Bowie answered, Receiving, because I like the thought that people are thinking about me. Record breaking low temperature dictated the students activities during the beginning of vacation. The -25°F Christmas Eve temperature not only spoiled the National Honor Society ' s plans to carol, but it also prevented students from much visiting to family and friends. The -80°F wind chill fac- tor was deadly. Pudgy dolls with unique outfits and adoption papers were the fad (not only for children) during the season. All over the U.S. desperate parents waited in lines all night so they would get one of the few coveted Cabbage Patch Dolls when the store ' s doors opened. The prices of the dolls were hiked up substantially. Some stores refused to sell the dolls because of the maniac attitudes of shoppers for the dolls. Other stores held Cabbage Patch Kid raffles to answer the pro- blem. As usual, the fad inspired Cab- bage Patch Kid slumber bags, wat- ches, plastic figurines, games, t.v. shows, etc. )ust as the students ' main conver- sation point before Christmas had been based around the season — What are you doing for Christmas? , after vacation it was the same topic — How was your Christmas? Does the season ever end? 20 Student Life Christmas Twas Ihe nig ht before Christmas and all through da flat, Nutten was movin, not even a rat.

If there are any inborn, God-given gifts, they are in the precocious fields of music, mathematics, and chess; if you have such a gift, you know it by now. All the rest of us, in all other fields, are not talented. We all start out dull and weary and uninspired. Apart from a few like Mozart, there never have been any great and ac- complished little children in the world. Genius is the product of education. Perhaps it ' s a cruel thing to insist that there is no such thing as talent. We all want to believe that being selfless was easy for Albert Schweitzer, that Faulkner ' s novels just popped into his head, that Rem- brandt painted because he had to. We want to believe all these nonsen- sical things in order to get ourselves off the hook. For if these people had no talent, then might the rest of us have painting or writing or great thinking as an option? We, who have no talent? I think the answer is yes, absolutely. So I maintain that the people who have made something of their lives — the Pasteurs and Cezannes and Melvilles — were neither more talented nor more disciplined nor more energetic nor more driven than the rest of us. They were simply bet- ter educated. Some of them did it the hard way, studying all the difficult works of their fields at home on their own. Others studied in school. But they all studied. You won ' t find a writer who hasn ' t studied the details of the works of other writers — although occasionally, you find an American writer like Hemmingway or Whitman who deliberately pretend- ed to be spontaneous and unstudied, probably in order to mislead the competition. And occasionally you find a writer like Thoreau, a very well educated Harvard man whose reading was in the Greek classics and in whose work most readers overlook the evidences of scholar- ship and effort simply because they don ' t want to see them. It ' s hard work, doing something with your life. The very thought of hard work makes me queasy. I ' d rather die in peace. Here we are, all equal and alike and none of us much to write home about — and some people choose to make themselves into physicists or thinkers or major league pitchers, knowing perfectly well that it will be nothing but hard work. But I want to tell you that it ' s not as bad as it sounds. Doing something does not require discipline; it creates its own discipline. We all want to believe that other people are natural wonders; it gets us off the hook. People can lift cars when they want to. People can recite the Koran, too, and run in marathons. These things aren ' t ways of life; they are merely possibilities for everyone on certain occasions of life. You don ' t lift cars around the clock or write books every year. But when you do, it ' s not so hard. It ' s not superhuman. It ' s very human. You do it for love. You do it for love and respect for your own life; you do it for love and respect for the world; and you do it for love and respect for the task itself. The above article is an excerpt from a graduation speech delivered by Pulitzer Prize winner Annie Dillard at Fairhaven College on june 9, 1978. After staying up practically all night long at a slumber party. Barb Ostrovsky fights the war of wrinkles. Busy at his hobby of gabbing on a phone, Rick Tucker disproves the theory that teenage girls use the phones the most. WINTER FORMAL J ancing “All Night Long” January 28, 1984 started out like a typical Winter Formal Day. Associa- tion members were busy running around making last minute prepara- tions for the dance. Others were busy washing their hair, cleaning out the family car, or making phone calls trying to find out what everybody was going to do afterwards. Before the dance, taking pictures appeared to be most parents ' excite- ment for the night. It seemed like they had to have at least a dozen pic- tures of the couple by the fireplace, and another dozen of their son pin- ning the corsage on his date, and of the girl pinning on the boutinerre. Then it was necessary to go to the date ' s house and go through the whole thing again. And if a person doubled with another couple, well At the Firemen ' s Local, the same was happening. While James Photographers were taking pictures of some couples, more were arriv- ing. By 7:30, the place was packed, and dinner was ready. Dinner was the only sour note of the evening. The food was not even typical catered food. No one knew how the caterer was able to do it, but he even managed to ruin the corn. Also, eating with plastic silver- ware was not all it was cut out to be (no pun intended). That really didn ' t matter too much because most couples had planned on going out to eat afterwards. The DJ, from the Hot Mix Five, was the highlight of the evening. Though he didn ' t play the theme song, All Night Long, he kept the place filled with music all night long. It was good music, too. But almost everyone was so drunk with happiness, he could have played polkas and still everyone Laura Reynolds watches intently while Henry Puentes loads his plate with mashed potatoes. would have danced. It appeared that not too many people were dancing with their own date, mainly just mingling and dancing at the same time. Around midnight everyone disap- peared from the hall and went on to their post-formal activities. Some drove to Chicago, only to find that no place was still serving dinner, and then, ended up eating at McDonald ' s. Some drove around the Region, looking for a place that was open, only to end up sitting in a park- ing lot eating a pepperoni pizza. However, there had been a few that had played it smart and had made reservations and were able to sit down to a nice meal (with real silver- ware). Regardless of what happened after Formal, the evening was still a success and everyone had a good time, all night long.

Therefore, anyone working part-time in addition to go- ing to school all day is indeed moonlighting. Why do we moonlight? Let ' s think about that for a minute. Is it the prestige of carting groceries to peo- ple ' s car trunks? Or is it the powerful feeling we get when we say, May I take your order, sir? Maybe it ' s how good we feel about ourselves when our bosses give us little self- improvement lectures on punctuali- ty. No, let ' s face it, it ' s the paycheck! Aren ' t we all money-grubbers at heart? Sometimes, though, all the fun, friends, and school activities missed make money seem relatively unimportant. However, without the experience we gain from jobs (which will be one of the things a future employer will look for), our first step into the real world could be quite a rude awakening. What a bummer it is to make plans to go somewhere and then have to cancel because we forgot that we had to work. It ' s even more of a royal drag to have a few days off of school and then find out we have to sub for the person we least like at our job. Truth be known, paying taxes is probably not high on our lists of things we ' ve always looked for- ward to do. On the flip side, when we do find time to go out with our friends, we have a lot more cash to wave in front of them. Unless, that is, our parents make us stow it all away in the bank. Let ' s cut them some slack though. We do have futures to think about. No, not hog futures — our futures — and money in the bank could give us a big head start when we ' re out on our own. So remember this when a juicy job offer comes up: Money can ' t buy true friends or happiness, but hap- piness and the truest of true friends aren ' t putting us through college, either. 26 Student Life Part-time Jobs While displaying her dancing yearbook talents for patrons at the Harrison Branch Library, jill Wagner returns books to their proper places.

You never have to worry about forgetting your lunch money. You always have a ride home.” It ' s a great conversation starter. What is the unique situation that inspired these comments? They were told to us by students who have parents who work at Hammond High School. We have four parent-student teams who are lucky, or perhaps unlucky enough to be working and attending school, respective- ly, at H.H.S. Since it i s a special situation, our on-the-job DUNES staff reporters did some in- vestigating into the pros and cons of being at the same school. Among the four parents we spoke to is our junior Counselor, Mr. Monberg. When asked if he tries to teach his children at home, Mr. Monberg replied that he, personally, did not, but that his wife often helps their kids with homework. Mr. Monberg is a very dedicated counselor in that he worries about the students that he deals with, especially when he sees good potential going to waste. We wondered if Mr. Monberg might try to set higher standards for his children because of his work in education, but he replied in the negative, saying, ”1 try to fit the standard to the child, not the child to the standard. Mr. Monberg ' s son. Senior Mike Monberg, believes that there is a good and a bad side to having his dad around all of the time. One not-so-good aspect is that his father is always able to find things out before he does, such as grades! Our second parent is Mr. Ball, who teaches Art. Mr. Ball has a son, a daughter, and a niece attending Hammond High. Although Mr. Ball is a talented artist and an art enthusiast, he has never tried to restrict his children ' s interests. I exposed them to art but never forced them into it, he said. Senior Dan Ball comments that having a parent work at his school is less difficult than he thought it would be. He says that the only real problems are that his dad could easily find out if he were to ditch, or to lie about his grades. Of course I would never do either of these, so I don ' t have to worry, states Dan. Thirdly, we have Mr. Green, who teaches Social Studies, and his daughter. Junior Kelly Green, who is a cheerleader and very active in school events. ”1 don ' t expect more from Kelly than she can perform, af- firms Mr. Green. The Greens say that they do talk about school quite a bit at home, and that they have a good home relationship, as well as a good school relationship. Our fourth and last parent-student team is Mrs. Pacosky and her daughter. Junior Debbie Pacosky. Mrs. Pacosky is a secretary in the of- fice and told our reporter that their both being at H.H.S. does not really make a big difference in their rela- tionship, but that it does make it easier for Debbie to depend on her. We are lucky to have these special parents and students who can relate well to this situation. Many students who don ' t have parents in school with them say that they wouldn ' t care to be in that situation. Perhaps, however, one would have to try it before one would really know if it would be good for him or not. This is the Ball Gang, known for stealing some of the greatest art treasures of the world. (The leader — Mr. Ray Ball, his daughter DeAnna, his son Dan, and his niece Cheryl.) 28 Student Living Teacher-Student Families Have you seen these two men?

Through the Early Years by Dr. William McNabney About the author After playing practically every role Hammond High has to offer. Dr William McNabney is a well-informed H.H.S. historian Before graduating from H.H.S. in 1941, McNabney lettered in band, track, baseball, and cheerleading, and student directed the 19401941 Fall and Spring Hammond High Band Concerts He later returned to his alma mater in 1952 to teach social studies until 1964 when he took on the job of guidance counselor. A year later, Dr McNabney was named assistant principal And, in another year (1966) he began managing the employees of the School City of Hammond as director of personnel The office of assistant superintendent- personnel became Dr McNabney s in 1968: he transferred to his present job, supervisor of research, testing, program evaluation and guidance, in 197 1 Historical research and writing are nothing new to McNabney He currently serves as the Hamm ond School City Historian and has written four major literary works. Also, he is a member of the Hammond Centennial Committee and helped with financing their historical booklet The invitation by the 1984 DUNES co-editors and H.H.S. Centennial Com- mittee to help them write a H.H.S. history, a desire to do something to raise money to diminish the long-running debt incurred by previous yearbook staffs, and a love for Hammond High and history were all reasons Dr. McNabney chose to record the official H.H.S. history in a Com- mememorative Chronicle. The yearbook editors had only hoped for a 32 page section of their yearbook (which was also to be overprinted and sold separately too) to be the history; they were more than thrilled when Dr. McNabney offered to write an entire historical DUNES supplementary book, a Commemorative Chronicle. However, both Dr. McNabney and the co- editors felt that a centennial yearbook must have its own permanent school history even if the book has a more involved supplement; the following arti- cle, H. H.S. Through the Early Years, is their answer To find the H.H.S. history included in the supplement. Dr McNabney has looked through all available DUNES yearbooks, Hammond School City meeting minutes, and many newspaper clippings. He also held interviews with past faculty, students, and administrators Commemorative Chronicle is the latest and most extensive H.H.S. history In the space provided for this brief summary, I have borrowed ex- tensively from many written histories on H.H.S. including the ac- count by Marilyn McLean of the 1946 DUNES staff. A Com- memorative Chronicle, a history of Hammond High School 1884- 1984, contains a detailed account of the history of the school and something from every graduating class where material could be found over the past 100 years. The Chronicle, is dedicated to the students in the class of 1984. The author entertains the hope that some among this class will cherish the 100 years of history of the school in which they have played a part. This is a fervent hope and calls upon the students to catch the torch of history. ' Be yours to hold it high, so that for the next 100 years the record of Hammond High School will be kept in such a manner that it will continue to reflect the love and pride that we who have gone before have in the school and that those who come after us will so shape the destiny of H.H.S., that it will continue to be transmitted greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us. H.H.S. was founded in the fall of 1884 in the Central School building which had been built by the township trustee, Marcus To- wle, in 1881. The course of study for the few entering freshmen was a three year high school course, taught for the most part by Mr W. C. Belman, the principal of the Central School in which he had already established a graded system at the elementary levels. He was assisted in the teaching of high school subjects by Miss Helen Winslow and for some time they worked together to develop and teach the courses most prevalent during that period. The first class to be graduated received their diplomas in )une of 1887. The class consisted of three young ladies. Their commencement exercise was held in the Hohman Opera House and Edna Smith, Clara Maschino, and Sarah Martelock met on the very next day to form the first H.H.S. Alumni Association. The graduating class of 1888 also contained but three young ladies and it was not until |une of 1891 that the first male graduated. Mr. Belman found his duties were more extended in 1890 when he became Superintendent of the township schools. Mr ). W. Max- well was appointed principal of the high school and grade school in the Central building and was responsible for initiating a four year course of study for all students entering high school in 1890. Mr. E. E. St. lohn was appointed principal in 1891. In 1892 former Trustee To- wle purchased the old wooden two story building located on the site of Hohman Avenue and Fayette Street. After cutting the building in half, moved it east to the Erie railroad tracks and had apartments made from the building While a new brick building was being built in 1893 on the original site of Hohman and Fayette, the students met for classes in the various churches nearby and the Masonic Lodge Hall. It was during this period of construction that Mr. W. A. Hill was appointed principal and the new H.H.S. building was dedicated on March 2, 1894 On October 8, 1894, the Common Council of the 10 year old in- corporated municipality of Hammond, Indiana appointed the first Board of School Trustees. At the first meeting of the School Board on October 13, 1894, they directed their treasurer, Mr. K. H. Bell, to order the township trustee to turn over all of the township schools and titles to the properties as well as all tuition monies so that the Board of School Trustees could indeed exercise their authority over the schools located in Hammond. Quite a lengthy legal battle en- sued following this request but eventually the School City gained complete control of the schools. The Hammond School Board then employed Mr. W. C. Belman as Superintendent of the Hammond schools and Mr. W. A. Hill prin- cipal of H.H.S. Thus, the transition from township ownership and ad- ministration to municipal ownership and administration of the schools was accomplished without administrative personnel changes (Continued on page 166) Student Living H.H.S.

Who would have expected this when no males graduated from H.H.S. until 1891. How did Clark ' s student body ever pick only one Homecoming Queen from all of these beauties: Andrew McNair, Adam Van Demeer, Ralph Trevino, Ricky Fladeland, Paul Meggers, and Don Balazs? After being announced Homecoming Queen, Rhonda Nutall bites her lip in hopes of holding back the tears. BASKETBALL HOMECOMING ne Homecoming Isn’t Enough January, 1984 marked the return of an almost forgotten tradition. Act- ing on the long expressed desires of the student body, the Student Government Association reinstated Basketball Homecoming. Spirit Week ambled off to a slow start on Monday, January 9, as students donned alligators and pink and green clothing of every type to celebrate Preppy Day. Interest picked up a little on Tues- day, Formal Day, and Wednesday, Backwards Day. Also on Wednesday was the original Autograph Day. Students wore old T-shirts and jackets and allowed friends to sign their clothing with autographs. This helped create a memorable keepsake. Thursday was another innovation — Teacher Student Turn-about Day. Although widely applauded by cer- tain students, Teacher Student Turnabout Day didn ' t draw a lot of participants. Or maybe the teachers and students at Hammond High really dress alike. Friday was the ever-traditional Class Colors Day. A hall decorating competition was held but only the Freshman and Sophomore Classes showed enough spirit to participate. Our Basketball Homecoming Princess and Queen candidates were introduced to the students in a presentation of Family Feud. The contestants attempted to Pulverize the Pioneers as they competed against the Clark Homecoming Princess candidates (actually a dozen of highly cooperative Hammond High boys.) Basketball Homecoming was capped off by the Wildcats ' victory over Clark which ended a six game losing streak. In our school ' s 100th year, the stu- dent body showed its lack of sexual discrimination by electing Jeff Schreiber as Junior Class Princess. No, he didn ' t wear a dress, but he did receive flowers and a standing ovation. The Student Government hopes to make Basketball Homecoming an an- nual event. Maybe next year, Jeff Schreiber will be able to run for Class Prince (or Homecoming Queen). 32 Student Living Basketball Homecoming Julie Jackson helps Lisa Belmont make last minute preparations.

One, the mural on the third floor ' s main entrance wall, was ac- cidentally painted over. The other, the stuffed wildcat, was stolen. Both objects stood for a lot. Hard work and artistic talent were shown by the mural which was painted by an arts projects class in the late 1970 ' s. It was nice to go by the school on Calumet Ave. and look in the third floor ' s window and see this masterpiece. The stuffed wildcat, which not too many people had ever seen because it was being thrown around the athletic office (one coach even said, It was a mangy old thing; its teeth were falling out ), was donated by H.H.S. students in memory of Charles Bounds and Ar- nold Schulters who when returning from an away basketball game (they were good athletes) were killed in a CHEMISTRY HONOR ROLL - Started by Mr Sizemore ten years ago.

When researching for this article, the DUNES staff found that the history of many H.H.S. artifacts has become very shady. That ' s a shame; the objects are just as much tradi- tions as Homecoming. By losing them or forgetting them, we lose part of our H.H.S. tradition. Hopefully in the future the articles will receive better respect. Student Living Heirlooms 35 U.S.A.

We Can Communicate in English . . . and German . . . and French . . . and Spanish . . . E nglish and foreign language students learn- ed proper communication skills not only by performing the necessary but boring gram- mar and pronunciation drills. They also were required to dig deep inside themselves to find creative talents which helped them produce compositions, skits, speeches, poetry, research papers, and short stories. Englisch und Fremdsprache Schuler haben eigentlich Mitteilunggeschicklichkeiten nicht nur bei der Arbeit von notwendigem aber langweiligem Grammatik und aussprachigen Ubungen gelernt.

By the time a student graduates from H.H.S., he has had 3.9 x 10 4 minutes of high school English training (4 years) and 1.8 x 10 4 minutes of high school foreign language training (2 years). After having so much ex- perience in English and foreign language classes, students usually benefit by acquiring the ability to pre- sent their ideas effectively. Another valuable tool ob- tained is the aptitude to interpret other peoples ' ideas and viewpoints. This capability more or less comes from reading and discussing pieces of other authors ' literature. A la fin de ses etudes, un etudiant de H.H.S. a eu 3.9 x 10 4 minutes d ' enseignment anglais a I ' ecole secon- daire (quatre ans) et 1.8 x 10 4 minutes d ' enseignment d ' une langue etrangere (deux ans). Apres avoir eu beaucoup d ' experience dans ces classes d ' anglais et les classes de langues etrangeres , d ' habitude ils profi- ted parce qu ' ils ont acqueri I ' habilete de presenter ef- ficacement leurs idees. Un autre outil precieux qu ' ils ont obtenu est I ' aptitude d ' interpreter les idees et les points de vue d ' autres personnes. Cette capabilete plus ou moins vient en lisant et discutant les oeuvres litterares des autres auteurs. English and foreign language classes went hand in hand. A foreign language enhanced the students ' vocabulary since English is an offshoot of many languages. The difference in foreign language gram- matical structure pointed out the uniqueness of the English structure. The language classes also learned about the cultures of Spain, France, or Germany. All in all, the time spent in these classes was the most important time in the school. No other class could have existed without communication skills. Las clases de Ingles y las de los idiomas extranjeros iban Mano en Mano. Los idiomas extranjeros se han enriquezido el vocabulario de los estudiantes, porque el ingles derina de ostros idomas. Las distinciones de la gramatica de los idiomas extranjeros fueron ejempios de la singularidad de la gramatica ingles. Los estu- diantes de las clases de idiomos tambien estudiaban las culturas de Esparia, Frances, y Alemania. Todo en Todo, el tiempo que se pasaba en esas clases era el teimpo mas importante de la escuela. Ninguna clase podrian tener exito sin destreza de la comunicar. 40 Academics English and Foreign Languages Then you clean the lint out of baby ' s belly button explains Lisa Salyer during her demonstration speech.

Paul Meggers and Mike Howard amuse themselves with the funny (?) chemical. That’s Incredible! But I Still Have So Much to Learn he more a student takes science or math classes, the more he finds out how little he actually knows. Nothing gives quite the same feeling except maybe walking through the aisles at a large library. However, the whole experience of studying the sciences at H.H.S. wasn ' t totally depressing. Finally after years of looking at the universe and just accept- ing it, students were given a good chance to learn what makes things tick. Biology classes performed bean growth experiments and more advanced classes even dissected a fetal pig. Students learned to ap- preciate the complexity of what they had thought were simple objects — before taking chemistry, who would have even thought about how each itty-bitty molecule has a certain type of architecture? Chemistry students, remember that grose fuzz on a zinc strip after it was put in a lead solution over night? Patience and carefulness were needed in a lab. In physics class, students learned all about energy and movement. Nobody in physics will probably ever forget the time the class members had to run up three flights of stairs and then calculate his horse power, or when Mr. Erikson had a demonstration to prove that he could boil water with an ice cube, or when Scott Lindholm was put on a rotating stand and when he brought his arms close to his side, he would rotate faster — Cap- tain Inertia. Or, remember lycopodium powder? What is a seven letter word for cat? and If x 3.5, what is f(x)? are questions coming from two different types of puzzles — a crossword puzzle and math. Although math takes more concentration and therefore bores some people, puzzles please man ' s desire to figure something out. Quite often, math classes provided some concepts that were (as Mr. Pecher said) neat stuff. Computer math classes brought students closer to the common fixture of the future. Computers (i.e. video games, calculators, digital watches, etc.) already held an important place in the lives of students. Actual- ly, the students had two teachers - Mr. Ruf and the computer. In late February and early March, some students us- ed their math science expertise in contests. Com- peting with schools from all over this area, H.H.S. representatives managed to place 20th in the Inland lets Contest (comprised of questions about math, graphics, and sciences). After being postponed two days due to a snowstorm, the American High School Math Exam was finally given at H.H.S. Although no one accomplished it, the math office gang promised to award a solar calculator to the student who could beat the previous year ' s score. Students were given a little help in preparing for the test. Some teachers gave out old copies of the test and assigned some problems for homework. Also, there was a previous year ' s problem in the display case near the math rooms and the next day the answer would appear in the same place. It ' s incredible how many things we can now do with the knowledge gained in math science classes. Perhaps a Wildcat will someday find the cure for cancer, develop a car that runs solely on water, design an efficient underwater city, or . . . 42 Academics Math and Sciences Writing it off as time spent on computer math homework, Chandra Townley and Barb Ostrovsky try to improve their Pac-Man game.

Now there were some real interesting social studies! Every time our family had a get together, I learned about all the history I could take. Either Grandpa, Auntie, or Dad would say, Yep, yep those were the good old days. You know for a nickel I could go to the movies and buy popcorn too . At least I could take a snooze when one of my relatives went on a sentimental history rampage. Once my eyes started to droop when my teacher began to talk about feudal landlords and the teacher threw an eraser at me! The four years spent in social studies were just a total drag. How could a person say something like that? Oops, allow me to introduce myself. I ' m Sammy the social studies snail. Little did anybody know it, but I was the one disguised as a cockroach (did you ever see a snail in H.H.S.?) As far as I could tell, social studies classes looked fun. I remember the time when one of the economics classes pretended to purchase $100,000 worth of stock. They then watched the rise and fall of the stocks and determined when to sell. Another neat hands-on experience was when one government class formed a citizen action group. They didn ' t like looking out the window during class and seeing City Hall ' s flag all ragged and holding on to the pole with one rope. So, they all called City Hall and complained. When that didn ' t work they burst into Ci- ty Hall and were given an audience by the Mayor. He promised that he would do something about the mat- ter as soon as the weather permitted - the group held him to his deal. They also had the chance to cam- paign for a chosen candidate running for president. Also, the Senior Class was polled by the group to see who the students ' presidential choice was. Near the end of the semester, each member of the class had to pretend he was running for an office and had to deliver a campaign speech. That class was so busy that I almost got smashed several times. Well, I could go on and on about the different in- teresting events I saw while observing social studies classes. I never could understand why students moan- ed about attending this type of class. It ' s not like anyone didn ' t have a reason to hold social studies classes. In them, students were given a base in helping to understand their place in society, national and inter- national news, business, ideas, goals, theories, and taught how to seek new answers, broaden view- points, and look for new challenges. Any happening in the world relates to some sort of social study. If a per- son thought all social studies classes were boring, then it doesn ' t say too much for his character. I sure would have liked to have enrolled in some sort of social studies class. Hey, that ' s what future social studies classes could do for a project. They could form an equal rights group called the Triple S Committee (Social Studies for Snails) and . . . 44 Academics Social Studies Shortly before his defeat in the November election, a H.H.S. graduate, Mayor Ed Raskosky spoke to future voters.

There was the usual shortage of supplies, the annual spilled ink contest and the battle of the ugliest paint mixture. However, there was one outstanding highlight: Mr. Ball ' s 6th hour class had a winner. Miss Kathy Campbell won the Hammond Centennial Logo Contest (beating out her art teacher) and was awarded a savings account with a start of $100.00. There are, of course, many other outstanding art students at H. H. S., but Kathy has prac- ticed her talent to the point of recognition. The art team is one of the best places to observe the difference in grade levels at H.H.S. The Freshmen are the rowdy, immature, crayon-throwing students that everybody expects them to be; the Sophomores are a little bit better and their artistic talents are only now beginning to become apparent. The juniors are the maturing young adults, but, as H.H.S. history has shown, they are the rowdiest class during the school year. The Seniors are the most mature and work- orientated group of all — maybe because they just want to graduate and stay out of trouble in the process. The art class is a fun class to have, if you know when to work and when to play. A student doesn ' t even have to have artistic talent. If a student tries his hardest, and has fun with it, he ' ll pass the class. So, if you ever want to see some terrific art work, or the culmination of what determination will do at H. H. S., just pass by the Art Gallery for a couple of minutes - it ' s free.

Wildcats Had the Best of Both Worlds They Explored Opportunities at H.H.S. and the Career Center B efore 1982 many students had to make a difficult decision that pretty much locked a student ' s future into a track. If an eighth grader decided to attend Tech, he would almost always go straight on to a job or more vocational training after high school graduation. His background didn ' t always have enough college- prep courses to attend a university. If Hammond High was chosen to be his secondary school, the student would either have to later attend college or take more trade courses. Quite often an eighth grader doesn ' t know exactly what his long term career hopes are. Matter of fact, neither do a lot of high school seniors! A student hasn ' t been exposed to enough options after atten- ding only an elementary and middle school. To answer the problem, the school city closed Tech at the end of the 1981-82 school year and formed the Hammond Career Center. This also allowed more sophisticated industrial arts (t.v. production, book binding, welding, etc.) to be offered to students of all Hammond high schools (any Hammond student may have attended the center). A student studied his base (English, math, Sciences, and Social Studies) courses at his local high school for part of the day and then went to the center for career training. After a year in operation, in 1984 the Hammond High students began to feel more comfortable attend- ing the career center. The Wildcats could finally ex- perience the best of both the college prep and voca- tional worlds. A lot more was understood about the program. In 1984, 136 Hammond High students at- tended the center. However, many students found everything they wanted to study without ever leaving the building. Hammond High offered excellent basic industrial arts courses. Future camerawoman lisa Gar- ton learns how to operate a video camera in the t.v. produc- tion class at the Career Center.

Janet Guthrie, 6 Japanese Educators, and Parents Visit ammond High really could have used a bureau of tourism during the 1983-84 period. Since we played host to numerous important guests during that time, it might have helped if we had a department just to buy welcoming fruit baskets, schedule itineraries, roll out the red carpet, and point out the sights — To your left is the high class, ritzy La Librarire Extraor- dinaire (the extraordinary bookstore) where students can buy the latest fashion in pencils and notebooks. Athough we didn ' t provide a tour guide, we did greet most of the guests with customary press con- ferences. Budding journalists of the HERALD and DUNES staffs did research about the guests before they arrived and then prepared a bounty of questions. On a national tour sponsored by the Metropolitan Insurance Agency, Janet Guthrie, the first woman to race in the Indianapolis 500, stopped by on April 27, 1983 and shared her Common Sense theories of safe driving. She also showed an auto safety flick. Dur- ing the movie, Ms. Guthrie was rushed into a room off the auditorium foyer and was interrogated by HEARLD and TIMES reporters. Those present at the press conference would agree that the national celebrity is a lot warmer than first im- pressions might indicate. She answered all of the reporters ' questions with thought and humor. Ms. Guthrie, when asked about her first opinions of H.H.S., explained tnat they would be biased because when she first arrived in our parking lot, a student was dangerously screeching his wheels — being safety conscious, Ms. Guthrie told us she uttered a few un- printable comments to the driver. Guthrie was faced with some questions she said nobody had ever asked. However, she answered with great spontaneity. She reminisced about how she begged her pilot father to teach her to fly and how he would scream and she would cry. She also gave a quote to help encourage the Wildcat Women who are pioneers in their field - Just know what you ' re doing and realize that when people say a woman can ' t do something that it is just mythology. Japanese educators observed us and we observed them on Sept. 16, 1983. They were intrigued by our books and loose class conduct and bowed at anything made in their country. We didn ' t really know what they thought of our school because of the language barrier. The press conference with them didn ' t get very far because everything had to be translated. However, we learned that teenagers in Japan are en- vious of us. One of the Japanese wrote on the chalkboard with his fancy Japanese writing and the journalists were so impressed that they didn ' t erase the board for weeks. Mrs. Chang, the Uricks, and other teachers throughout Hammond had several Japanese over to their houses for dinner. All who participated had a good time. The Japanese were extraordinarily polite. They presented their host families with lovely gifts. The only thing that put a minor damper on the even- ing was once again the differences in languages (translators did not go to the homes) - even Mme. Urick who knows four languages fluently had problems communicating. The visitors who made us the most nervous were our parents who visited any time during the Nov. 14- 19 week. Our teachers never saw us act so good! Having visitors in the school definitely was fun and changed the pace of the day. Perhaps H.H.S. should build a Holiday Inn on the football field and sell tickets to the school. Little collec- tor ' s spoon souvenirs might be a good idea too! 50 Academics Visitors Even the high-tech Japanese are amazed with Mr. Ruf ' s exciting com- puter program Race car driver Janet Guthrie wonders if it ' s worse driving around male chauvanists or answering crazy questions of high school reporters.

This chauvinistic statement is definitely one that most of our female students at Hammond High would object to. Also, our Home Economics and Business teachers would certainly dispute the fact that the purpose of their classes is such a sexist one. Thirdly, the male students in Business and Home Ec. classes would probably be insulted to think that they had no place in these departments. Obviously, the above statement is true only in a very limited sense, if at all. The purpose of the Home Economics Department is to provide both sexes with skills that will be useful in establishing successful homes and families. Being good parents is emphasized in the Home Ec. Program, along with skills needed to be a good consumer. Business courses such as typing are essential to virtually everyone, no matter what field he or she is planning to pursue. In addition to these general skills, classes such as Secretarial Procedures are very specialized, and can help one prepare for a specific career, and be an ex- tremely valuable headstart in the business world. Other Hammond High programs which help students ready themselves for a career, are the HERO, ICE, and COE job programs. These programs give students time off of school to work; allowing them to gain work experience and earn money. There are twenty students currently involved in the HERO pro- gram, working at places ranging from Burger King to Einhorns. They have had various fund-raisers to raise money for a banquet in honor of their employers. Mrs. Thomas, sponsor of the HERO program, said: This year is the best one that I ' ve had with the program. Home Economics and Business classes are definitely not for women only. Even though Hammond High was started with three female students, we ' re sure that Edna, Sarah and Clara would not take such a nar- row view of matters in 1984. 52 Academics Home Ec — Business Ingrid Robinson and Renee Austin check to see why their soup is evaporating.

With the money raised through fund raisers, the club felt the need to help the students of H.H.S. The club managed to use the money to help needy students and their families in need of medical necessities. One child was given a pair of glasses by the club for instance. In early May the club sponsored an American Red Cross Blood Drive. To prepare for this event, some members attended a seminar, designed pamphlets and posters, advertised the drive at the centennial fair and parade, and generally acted like thirsty vampires when recruiting donors. For each pint of blood col- lected at the drive, three human lives were helped. A blood Olympics, be- tween students, faculty and parents, and a student assembly with dancing blood corpuscles added to the fun of the drive.

Mrs. Perz had a feeling that there must be some students who were interested in going into the medical field in the future and would like to explore all the health career opportunities before making a final decision. Her intuition proved to be right — thirty students quickly signed up for the club. Students h ave had many oppor- tunities to explore fields such as nurs- ing, social work, physical therapy, emergency medical technology, and radiology. Practitioners from some of these fields even came and spoke to the group about their jobs. St. Margaret Hospital also allowed club members to tour their facilities.

He un- doubtedly used his voice to express himself through music with this in- strument long before he thought of making music with instruments. Today at Hammond High School, our vocal Music Department (under the direction of Mrs. Mary Hunt) is using their voices for self expression, as well as for the benefit of the school and the community. The first time during the 1983-84 school year that the department per- formed for the student body was during an Association assembly. Everyone was impressed with their vocal excellence, and with the great amount of emotion with which they sang their moving Gospel hymns. They also performed at the annual (well, not annual in the recent past, but hopefully will be in the future) Christmas program, inspiring many of Purpose: To provide pleasure and entertainment for the student participant and school body.

It was only a year later that the chorus first won the contest with Day Break and Go to Sleep, My Honey. the students in the audience to sing along with traditional songs like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman. People often imagine chorus members as meek, canary-typed people. Males have quite often been teased for joining choruses. Actually, singers may be the bravest per- formers of all the fine arts world. An artist doesn ' t have to personally face his critics after presenting his work. A musician can always blame a mistake on his instrument. However, when a singer hits a clinker , it comes directly from his mouth. The chorus ' spring project was the musical production of Daniel. The vocal music department has high hopes that the strong tradition of musical excellence which they have inherited and continued, will live on into the next century of Ham- mond High. 58 Organizations Chorus (Upper Left) CONCERT CHOIR — Front row: A.

Soldiers once charged into battles after hearing the call of the bugles. Circus horses, elephants, and bears know their routines by following the music. Ever notice how people sort of march along amusement park paths when a band is busily playing a hearty song in the center of the park? This is a management device used to help the masses of people flow through the park ' s streets. For several years, H.H.S. had seemed to have lost its band pulse beat.

Never- theless, Homecoming was planned and carried out in a short period of time and was considered a success. Next on the agenda, after organiz- ing several community programs over the holidays — including a can- ned food drive for the Salvation Ar- my — was Basketball Homecoming. Although also planned in only a few weeks. Basketball Homecoming restored a well-deserved honor to the team. Perhaps the biggest social success of the year was the 1984 Winter Semi-Formal. A lot of time and effort on the part of many people resulted in some wonderful memories for the students who attended. After Winter Formal, the Associa- tion officers resolved to make their best efforts to return the Association to a more legislative role. The con- stitution (the Association does have one) was evaluated, and several un- workable sections were amended. The Association ' s true legislative abili- ty, however, was severely taxed by the administration ' s refusal in September to allow election of homeroom representatives. This year, the Association ' s biggest accomplishment was probably its rebirth after many years of hiding. The Association remained highly visi- ble throughout the school year, and weekly meetings — at which the stu- dent body was more than welcome — were held. All the Association and class officers, cabinet members, and senators worked very hard this year. They and you contributed every day to the success and existence of the Student Government Association. Kristen Hill, President Purpose: To provide a democratic, student-run governing body. Also, trains members for citizenship. Officers: President — Kristen Hill Vice President — Kathy Aubruner Recorder — Lila March In 1923 a new era in the history of the school began. It was just one of the brilliant climaxes in the school ' s progressive strides, a climax of democracy, for in that year the H.H.S. Association was born, not as a fact, but as an experiment. At the time of the new government ' s proposal, the question asked was, ' Would it work? ' It had in some schools; in others it had failed. Would it be a success in ours? — 1926 DUNES For two years before 1923 there was only a student council. 62 Organizations Association STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION — Front Row: M. Hurl, D.

Team members competed at tournaments at the University of Notre Dame, Butler University, In- diana University Purdue University at Indianapolis and numerous high schools throughout Indiana. Coach Fred Monberg, assisted by Mrs. Emanda Jones, and Mr. Robert Schneider, states: The purpose of Speech and Debate is to provide an area of competition that allows the academically-able students to com- pete against like students from other schools. He continued, saying that through competition in Forensics, students almost have two high schools — one the Home of the Wildcats, and the other shared with friends made in competition. Financial worries caused some 64 Organizations Debate Team Cons problems for the team this year. Nor- mally, the team gained revenues from the vending machines outside the guidance office, but this year, due to the School City ' s interpreta- tion of regulations concerning food H.H S participated in city-wide oratorical con- tests beginning around 1903 The first interschool debate team was organized in 1913 Oddly enough, one of the first champions from the debate club (est 1920) was named Nadia MONBERG sales, the vending machines were rarely on, and the team ' s money sup- ply diminished. In order to raise money, the team held fund-raisers — including the manufacture and sale of one hundred Christmas wreaths. Probably few people have realized the amount of time that team members dedicate to Forensics. The season began at the end of September and didn ' t end until mid- Freshmen Monica Storiale and Tanya Stanish add a new aspect to Forensics as they let off steam at the State Debate Tournament in Kokomo. April. During this time, students com- peted up to three days per week. Almost every Saturday, and most Tuesdays during the first semester, H.H.S. students were competing in Speech or Debate activities. Also, a lot of free time was spent research- ing topics, preparing speeches, and perfecting techniques for the next meets. During the 1983-84 season, forty- two H.H.S. students earned participa- tion points from the National Foren- sic League. The H.H.S. Centennial year marked a first in team history. Three out- standing team members - Dallas Creighton, Mike Monberg, and Kristen Hill — received the National Forensic League ' s Degree of Special Distinction (the highest possible award).

Organizations Debate Team 65 A Tropical Trip to Sunny South Bend S ' J, “ Prog ress Miss Ennis and Mr. O ' Rourke sponsored a weekend trip to Notre Dame for 50 of Hammond High ' s student leaders, so that they could learn about leadership. They learned that leadership was more than just leading people. They really dug deep down into themselves to find out their morals and ethics, what values they had in life, and how they rated themselves among a group of people, and how those people rated them. The weekend wasn ' t all seriousness, though. In the dorm. Miss Ennis separated the boys from the girls by putting a floor in between them and threatening each not to leave his floor. But once Miss Ennis fell asleep, no one paid much atten- tion to the threats. Between ordering pizzas at 2:00 a.m. and TPing Mr. O ' Rourke ' s door, painting the boy ' s toenails and hiding their shoes, the priest who was stationed three floors down, woke up and came upstairs. He decided to inspect a few rooms, and he was in for a big surprise when he opened the closet doors. Getting a little upset at the thought of the op- posite sexes conversing at 3:00 a.m., the priest decided he had all he could Purpose: to develop programs that will enhance the image of Hammond High Officers: President - Diane Ginther Vice-President - Portia Fultz Secretaries — Amy Jackson and Cyndi Newton take, so he went back downstairs and took a few Tylenol. An hour or two later things quieted down and people went to sleep, only to be woken by Miss En- nis banging on every single door at 6:30 a.m. But the meeting hall, with its arctic cold air-conditioning, kept everyone awake throughout the day so they could concentrate on ways of improving themselves and Ham- mond High. The weekend paid off for Miss En- nis. SLIP was formed and its members have made positive steps toward im- proving our school. Many commit- tees have been formed. A teacher student relations committee, in which SLIP members talked over some communication problems with teachers, has met many times. Then this ombundsman-typed group, Friends, developed a counseling committee that helped students and teachers relate better. A type of hotline for students that need someone to talk to has been set up. A leadership seminar for other schools in our area took place in March. Even though SLIP is barely a year old, it has already shown that it was worth the time and effort put into it. Story and layout by Diane Ginther, President BEFORE: On the way to Notre Dame, the students pose for a cheerful picture. 66 AFTER: The night before took its toll on most of the students (at least those with seats). At their first meeting, SLIP goes over some of the things learned at Notre Dame. Sophomore Portia Fultz prays that while she ' s sleeping no one will notice the drool running down her arm. Kim Washington, spokesperson for her argues a point. Marta Silva and Ken Richwalski look fascinated by the medals they have just received. Some H.H.S.

Frye, J Dilbeck. ive Them a Hand C ■■ Teachers and coaches were quite often too busy to keep track of every minute detail, but luckily they had aides and stats to help keep records straight. It took a special type of person to be a stat or aide. He she had to be able to get along with the team or class members they were helping, honest, have an eye for detail (correcting papers sometimes causes people to start seeing mirages), energetic (cheering on a losing team or depressed teacher isn ' t easy), and most importantly have the desire to work. The mat maids ' duties included keeping the wrestling score, mak- ing sure the water bottles were filled, and calling the newspaper. There were rumors going around the DUNES room that the mat maids had formed a cult. Mr. Deak, the sponsor of the mat maids, replied to that statement by telling one of our reporters that the meetings were held every Tuesday at his house. The truth comes out. Another rumor was that the swim team had been successful because the swim team timers were putting fleas in the op- ponents ' trunks. Mr. Dennis, the sponsor, refused to comment. Even if the timers didn ' t use the in- sects, they most definitely inspired the swimmers. It wasn ' t unusual to see one of the timers jumping up and down and yelling their livers out to cheer on one of the catfish (even in hot and humid nautitorium). A couple of times a timer almost took the plunge (well, the swimmers always helped the timers take a swim after a victorious meet if the timers didn ' t run fast enough) with an expensive stop watch. A more sedate stat group was the basketball stats. Someone almost had to be an Einstein and a ten eyed monster to watch the players and mark down and calculate shooting percentages, steals, assists, and rebounds. Being an office aide was no easy job either. Marlissa Dancho who served as guidance office aide said the counselors worked her buns off. She filed student forms, ran errands, did copies, and showed new students around the school. One of the most popular ways of getting out of a study hall was to donate time to a teacher to become an aide. Teachers quite often gave their aides tasks such as correcting papers, putting up a bulletin board, and all types of er- rands. However, as Terri O ' Brien told us, being an aide was nice because it was extra time to get homework finished and complete stories for the yearbook. No doubt, the teachers and coaches who were lent a hand by students would like to give their helpers a round of applause. Ac- tually that isn ' t enough. Maybe we needed a union for aides and stats. Organizations Aides and Stats 69 D p This year ' s Hammond High M HERALD Staff went through many disputes, disagreements, and quarrels; however, the staff ' s desire for unity eliminated most of the conflict. I could see similarities between the staff and the ideas behind George Orwell ' s 1984. Mr. Robert Schneider (Advisor) and moi, Garrard McClendon (Editor-In- Chief) were the driving force behind the staff. We tried to keep things in order by playing the Big Brother role, while the staff seemed to stay enclosed in some sort of a wicked, delirious frenzy — they were constantly being ig Brother Is Watching!! watched. We (the staff) printed a lot of in- formation that appeared to in- terest the readers of Hammond High as well as the Calumet Region. Music polls, human in- terest stories, photo opinions, etc. were a big part of the copy that was printed in the HERALD. The HERALD has been an en- joyable newspaper to work on. We basically abided by the four major rules of a high school newspaper: to persuade, to enter- tain, to inform, and to provide a forum for advertising. Garrard McClendon, Editor-In-Chief HERALD Above are the headings of the HERALD as they appeared in 1954 and 1984 Eric Fladeland checks the Daily Bulletin for news flashes. Anxiously working to finish her story for the deadline, Brenda Kotul changes the wording of a sentence. Purpose: To persuade, to entertain, to inform, and to provide a forum for advertising. The first publication of H.H.S. was the SCHOOL NEWS (a small three column sheet); it was first published around 1915. A few years later, the name was changed to the TEMULAC. In the Fall of 1923, the paper was enlarged and the name was changed to THE CALUMET HERALD. A contest was held to name the paper Some of the other suggested names were as follows: H.H.S. WEEKLY, HIGH SCHOOL HERALD, THE PEACE PIPE NEWS, and THE CALUMET CLARION. 70 Organizations Herald Garrard (Big Brother) McClendon checks Lisa Rodriguez ' s graphic arts techniques on the light board.

Said they had to clean the pancake batter off the gym floor after school (???) Something about a pie throw. Generally confused types. They said they were chosen to be co-editors this month and wanted to raise some money so they went to Ultra and bought a bunch of whipped cream and pancake batter. They even prac- ticed throwing pies in Ultra ' s parking lot. Evidently one could pay to throw pies at teachers. Can ' t determine whether they ' re having delusions or not. Seem to be obsessed with cheese. As far as I can tell, they got a big parmesan cheese box from Ultra and they seem to think it ' s a person. Will require more observation. August 31, 1983 — K. A. and J. G. were in for their 2nd appointment this morning. They went to jour- nalism camp in late July and ap- parently existed on M M ' s and cheese popcorn for an entire week. (Note: malnutrition related to mental health?) On returning from camp they organized their staff for a cou- ple of ad selling excursions. And we got up early in the morning and drove to River Oaks and walked all over that mall, but we only sold three ads, K. moaned. Mid-August they decided to have a staff-get-together and go play miniature golf. But nobody came except Bart and Mr. Schneider, and 72 Organizations DUNES Staff rom the Desk of Ima Shrink we went to some sleazy Italian beef joint in Hessville and they had wire chairs, said J. I think frustration over fund raisers is their biggest problem at the mo- ment. Also, they have a severe mania concerning goriilers Not Gorillas, gorillers and Mr. T. Preliminary diagnosis: severe financial stress ($10,000 debt to Taylor Publishing from previous yearbooks) producing delirium and hallucinations. September 17, 1983 — New development in H.H.S. yearbook case. Some sort of pet animal called FROGACUDDA competing with cheese and other symbols. K. and J. think FROGACUDDA will save them from Mr. Schneider and Miss Ennis. It seems they will go to any ex- treme to raise money. They deliver singing telegrams for $1.50 (embar- rassment contributing to chronic stress?) Midway through our session they started screaming, Pictures, pic- tures, pictures. They say they never have any pictures. Had to sedate them. Hospitalization a possibility. December 1 , 1983 — This time the whole yearbook staff came along for the session. About six of them (including K. and J.) were dressed as dancing yearbooks and another three of them (Pauline Manous, Melanie Simkins, and Terri O ' Brien) were pretending to be the first graduates of Hammond High. Also, Mary Ann Fox was complaining of a sword wound which she obtained during a circus field trip. The photographers, Dan Ball and some- one called Elmar or Omoar or something, showed up looking very belligerent. Yearbook staff generally a bunch of shady characters and delinquent types. I am totally con- vinced that being On Hammond High ' s yearbook staff is hazardous to the health of students and teachers — (advisor is prematurely gray). March 1, 1984 — When K. and J. entered my office today, their behavior was totally irrational. No semblence of reason whatsoever. They had come straight to the ap- pointment from their meeting with their publishing representative, Steve Talsma, and Mr. Schneider. Our con- versation was in this general vein: Dr.: Well how did your meeting go? K.: We had to go to Ennis Realty and ask them for a sign to put on the school ' s front lawn! Dr.: I see. But about your meeting J. : And then we went out to Dyer to look for ads and cars kept coming, but we couldn ' t cross the street for about a half hour, and it was freezing! Dr.: When was this? Please try to calm down. K. : YES J. : YES Dr.: All right. Good. Now, tell me how the yearbook is progressing. K. : YES. EXIT. Dr.: Well, let ' s try another subject. When is your next staff field trip? Didn ' t you mention something about cross country skiing?

It has created an indomitable Wildcat spirit of never-say-die. The start of the season brought doubt that this year ' s team would be able to uphold the tradition as it has done in the past. But the ability to play as a team, to never say die, with every member playing to his absolute potential, all a result of excellent coaching, combined to give the Wildcats what Coach Zasada proclaimed was the most exciting season I ' ve coached. Two weeks of practicing football twice a day (about five hours) in torrid, humid conditions prepared the Wildcats for the Griffith game. The Wildcats pawed their way down the field to score first, but the Panthers struck back. Griffith ' s ability to convert on a two point play ended the game 7-8 in their favor. The Wilcats easily romped over Roosevelt and Washington to arrive at the toughest part of the season — the Munster and Bishop Noll rivalries. The tie-breakers led Munster 6-0 until late in the fourth quarter. With five minutes left, Munster was 4-12 and was forced to punt. When they punted, an unsportsman-like conduct penalty was called against the Wildcats (for having 12 men on the field), giving the ball back to Munster. Even though the Wildcats outrushed Munster and held them scoreless to this point, the penalty gave the Mustangs enough momentum to score both the touchdown and the point after. The final score placed the Munster playoff qualifying team ahead by one. The Wildcats went into the Noll game with a 2-2 record and left with a 2-3. Normally this would have removed any hope of mak- ing the playoffs but because of the advent of clusters, teams make the playoffs on the basis of how they per- formed against teams in their cluster in- stead of their overall record. The team knew that if things could be turned around then and there, that they could still make the playoffs. The Wildcats went on to defeat every single remaining regular-season opponent, bringing with them the wrath of a hungry wildcat. This put them into a tie with (Con ' t on p. 78) Varsity Scoreboard Opponent Griffith HHS Opp. 8 ECR 14 6 I ( vv 44 0 Munster 7 Noll 0 2b Andrean 14 0 Whiting 49 0 Clark 21 Morton 14 12 Cluster Noll Playoffs b 0 Andrean fe 3 Griffith Sectional 0 b S B.

(continued f rom p. 77) Andrean and Noll for the cluster championship. The tie-breaker was played at home, with the Wildcats first up against Noll. Tom Murakowski ran over the right side four times to score. Sides were switched and Bishop Noll had the opportunity to score. He then intercepted Bishop Noll ' s last hope pass to defeat them and revenge the regular season loss. Next the tie-breakers faced Andrean. Andrean scored first with a field goal. The Wildcats came back with an Ed Smith to Garrick Young pass combination to score and claim the cluster championship. The first playoff opponent was Griffith, and the team more than wanted revenge. They wanted to be Sectional Champion. They got what they wanted, defeating Griffith 20-6. The next opponent was South Bend St. loseph at South Bend. The ' Cats took an early lead and held it 18-6, with 49 seconds. The dark day of doom emerged. St. loseph scored, and brought the game closer. They then, as everyone expected, onside kicked. The Cats recovered, but it was called back because of a non- declineable encroachment penalty against St. loseph. This time St. Joseph recovered and managed to perfectly execute a flee- flicker on the third down for a touchdown, winning the game 30-18. The St. loseph coach heralded it a ”. . . miracle victory. My boys are extremely lucky. It didn ' t matter how it happened, as far as the tie breakers were concerned, they lost. The season ' s end was a disap- pointing shock, but the season as a whole teaches a lesson. It had a beginning, a mid- dle, and an end. The ' Cats, never-saying- die, turned themselves around to a sec- tional championship, the first since 1978. The season was concluded November 20th with the annual potluck dinner. Here the players were recognized for their performances. Game ball winners consisted of Nick Anderson, Ralph Dorsey, Tom Murakowski, Mike Monberg, Henry Fuentes, Garrick Young, Sam Burnett, Scott Lindholm, and Vincent Wilson.

Grapplers Take Second Place in Conference The 1983-84 H.H.S. varsity grapplers, with a record of 5-3, had a fairly successful season with an overall conference rank of second place. Wrestling coach Karl Deak said, in com- paring this years wreestling team with last years wrestling team, We had the same problems as we had last year. We didn ' t have any heavyweights and so that hurt us in the dual meets, but didn ' t hurt us much in the tournaments. We did well in the tour- naments and in sectionals. For the H.H.S. wrestlers it didn ' t come easy. Everyday after school, except on days there was a meet, the H.H.S. wrestlers practiced vigorously from approx- imately 2:35 p.m. until about 6:00 p.m. Practices included weightlifting, stretching out, running and of course wrestling. Every morning over Christmas vacation, when everyone was probably still tucked away in their bed, coach Karl Deak and his wrestlers were up and at it from about 9:00 a.m. until about 11:00 a.m. practicing. The only break they had over Christmas vacation was that they had no practice on Christmas Day. Pinning an opponent is usually the main goal of a wrestler.

Freshman Var- sity wrestler , Shawn Long said, It makes you feel good; it gives you a lot of self- confidence and pride because you ' re the only one out on the mat, not the whole team. Sophomore ).V. wrestler, Fidel Medina, expresses how he feels after pinn- ing an opponent, It makes you feel like you can ' t get beat, like you can ' t be stop- ped. ' ' Varsity wrestler, Ray Ramirez, said, It kind of makes you feel kind of glad because the match is over, because you don ' t want to wrestle for the whole six minutes. Also, Senior Varsi- ty wrestler, Ray Pettit ex- presses his feelings, It kind of feels good when you get up off the mat and he ' s still laying there.

Kukla, Kukla . . . where did they get the name Kukla? Or how about the name Fahey Flynn. If I have twins, I ' ll name them Bert and Ernie . . Yep, those are probably some of the things the swimmers start to think about during their practices. Think about it — lap after lap of solitude. Obviously the H.H.S. swimmers were creative and used some of their time in solitude to develop a unique idea. Their float entry in the Homecoming parade won first place in the club division. Their float, Wet-N-Wild was the swim team ' s first display in the year showing that they meant business. It could be said that they started off on the right flip- per. However, just as all fairy tales have some sort of tragedy, the swim team lost their first meet which started and ended their losing streak; the team won their next four meets. The Catfish finished their season with seven wins and five losses. Finally they ended their season with icing, a fourth place in the Indiana Lake Shore Con- ference Meet. After receiving a year of valuable ex- perience, the young team (most of them were only Freshmen) will probably live and compete happily ever after. ■ j Opponent Mon on H.H.S. 76 °% Westside 102 67 Wirt 112 60 Horace Mann 128 33 Michigan City 89 83 Bishop Noll 49 122 Griffith 81 88 Gavit 72 99 Clark 102 66 Calomel 77 95 Lew Wallace 110 59 Gary Rossevelt 1 1 0 I.LS.C 4th Place 82 Sports Swimming Swimmers anchor decorations on their prize-winning float before starting out on Although swimming is basically the sport of the in- parade route, dividual, the Catfish help their teammates all they can by cheering them on.

Players Out Witt Andrean The volleyball season ended on a sour note. It was the first game of sectionals, HHS against Whiting. Whiting won the first game, HHS won the second. In the third game Whiting was ahead 16-14, with two seconds remaining on the clock, junior jackie Edmond was up to serve. HHS need- ed an ace serve because Whiting is basical- ly a defense team, and HHS ' s offense is not their strong point, jackie Edmond served the ball. The line judge closest to the ball called it ' in ' . The referee overruled the line judge and called it ' out ' . HHS lost the game. Other than that game, the season went well. Both )V and Varsity did well con- sidering both teams were young and inexperienced. The Varsity Team had only one Senior, Chandra Townley, Returning to JV were three veterans, junior Ingrid Robinson, Sopho- mores Vicki Buth and Lisa Salyer. The season started out a little different this year. Conditioning practices started in mid- August. The team worked out in a 120° gym, running timed laps, serving fifty balls, jogging up and down the stairs, and running windsprints to get in shape. The first game of the season started before school began. Because of lack of funds half of the team would often pile into one car to get to an away game, instead of going on a bus. This is the second year that HHS has had a freshman volleyball team. This year their record wasn ' t too good, but that isn ' t real- ly important because basically freshmen volleyball is concerned with getting more people involv- ed, and giving Freshmen the practice and ex- perience they need, instead of putting them on (V and letting them sit the bench. After the season was over, the coaches took the JV and Varsity out to eat at Shakey ' s. There, the coaches passed out awards, letters, and numbers. Coach Witt also made up T-shirts to give to the MVPs. Donya ' Pig ' Coles was Ms. Hus- tle, Vanessa Swanson was Ms. Offense, and jackie Edmond was Ms. Defense. This year the team was lucky to have two peo- ple make all-conference - Portia Fultz and jackie Edmond.

Sports Volleyball Softball Debuts The Indiana Lake Shore Conference opened its doors to a new high school sport — girls softball. After the decision in January, Morton, Gavit, ECW, ECR, Clark, Whiting, and Hammond started their season as all field teams in the I.L.S.C. do. The Lake Shore Conference sponsored the league, but softball as a high school sport was not yet sanction- ed by the Indiana High School Athletic Association, so there wasn ' t a state tournament. Since 1983 was the first year for girls to be playing softball level, the team members didn ' t know what to expect of themselves or the other teams. There were a lot of girls who had participated in the summer leagues which gave them lots of experience and playing time. The School City of Hammond supplied most of the equipment for Hammond, but the players and coaches tried to raise money through adult booster clubs to pay for uniforms and some of the equipment not purchased by the School City. Being the first softball season, even getting the boys ' old uniforms was a step up. The 1984 season is expected to be financially better. Hammond started out their season with a loss against Gavit, but improved slowly as the year went on. Hammond ' s enthusiasm was much greater. H.H.S. finished their season in fourth place with the record of 7-5. Coach Bob Serafin hopes for a first or second this year; as one enthusiastic player quoted, With the determination of winners, we can beat any team. Softball team members took a haul on some of the city-wide awards. Last year ' s Kathy Dietz and Freshman Kim Haney made the All Lake Shore Conference team and Seniors Lynda Col- lins and Sherry Pabst and Sophomore Deanna Ball were selected for honorable mentions. For surviving a difficult season with cold weather, no money, and no state tourna- ment to advance to, the coaches, Mr. Serafin and Mr. Schneider, treated the 15 member team (it started as a 60 member team and then dwindled down to V« of the original size) to a White Sox game and piz- za. The season wasn ' t a loss!

Sports Softball 87 Another Kind of Love Coach Hugh Dawson retired last spring and handed over his coaching position to a former Hammond High student, Richard Kitchell. Mr. Dawson has been the tennis coach for the past 25 years. The boys ' team is the first to be coached by Mr. Kitchell. A new ex- perience to the team was practicing at six in the morn- ing on those hot, humid days in August (which, by the way, didn ' t last very long). Then they would come back later for a cou- ple hours of practice, jog- ging laps, running sprints, and playing matches. Of course all of this paid off. HHS, as usual, finished the season with a good record. It might take the girls ' team a little bit longer to get used to this new way of coaching. Last spring, in- stead of jogging over to Harrison Park, like they were supposed to do, the team would often con Mr. Dawson into letting them ride in his car. Although his car nor- mally seats four comfortably, the whole team managed to fit in there - uncomfortably. The girls faced some tough competition - the weather — but even tougher, the teams that wanted to play in the lousy weather, as in trying to convince Bishop Noll that when the winds are in excess of 40 mph, a tennis match can legally be called off, or trying to convince Clark in the middle of a thunderstorm that it is not letting up. On these crummy days, when the team didn ' t have a match, the girls would prac- tice in the gym, along with the baseball and softball players. Tennis practice was held in the balcony. Many times when Mr. Dawson wasn ' t looking, the players would accidentally hit balls down to the baseball players. While the team can ' t really boast of a terrific record, they played up to their abili- ty and up to their opponents throughout the season.

Starting off the season with seven Sophomores and three Freshmen, experience would be a factor. Coach Bill Strater had hoped for a winning season with this young group of players he had, but fell short with a 15-16 season record, and a semi-final ap- pearance in sectionals. The team was led by M.V.P. and graduating Senior Marty Percak. Even with the departure of Marty, the 1984 team did not lack talent. Return- ing to it were some of the star players of the 1983 season, pitcher Mike Knapik and Ray Pettit (All-Conference ' 83). On the other hand, the cross country team had a good year. The team had been running together for the past two years. This year they were ranked 2 in con- ference with a 5-2 record. Their pre-state qualifying record was a lot better than it was last year, but, as Jimmy Jones put it, because of overconfidence, the team wasn ' t able to go as far as the 1982 team. Anyone can play soccer. Since not too many people try out, nobody gets cut from the team. We asked two players why they play soccer. Martin Vela said, For the fun ot it. Also I don ' t want to get out of shape and to stay healthy. And Javiar Palacios said, All my life I have been playing Soccer. The Most Valuable Player was Tom Doughty. He did the most for the team. Mike Barnes would get the game high. There were no state finals for soccer but they did have a conference. The last time we won the conference was in 1980. Mr. Carroll said, Last year (1983) was a frustrating year. They did not do as good as I thought they would. 90 Sports Baseball CROSS COUNTRY — Front row: J. Jones, T Cum- mins, J, Cortez, F.

They did so well that they won the Con- ference Championship. Not only were the fans sur- prised, but also was the team ' s coach, Mr. lames Brown, as well. Mr. Brown explained that there was a lot of cooperation and the boys acted well together as a team. Also, the coach said that he considered every team member valuable, but he did give the names of some of the men who really did excel to their very best: Carl Richardson, Garrard Mc- Clendon, Alfred Powell, Roy Cosme, Garrick Young, jim- my )ones, Bennie Stanley, Sean Alexander, and graduates Royal Donald, Chris Miles, and Joe Peterson. Mr. Brown is confident that this year ' s team will do very well. He feels that they have a good chance of winning the state ti- tle.

They were out for blood. A lot of unusual things were happening during the game. Vanessa Swanson was on the freethrow line. She shot for the point and missed the rim. Three of our players wanted to fight with the players from Bishop Noll and Clark. Three of the regular starters, Donya Coles, Vanessa Swanson and An- drea Jackson did not start. In their places were Portia Fultz, Kim Haney and Vicki Buth. The game was all in Gavit ' s favor, until the third quarter when we made a comeback and just fell short of winning. We lost by nine points. The final score was 53-42. Vanessa Swanson had the most points on the team during the game. Our Lady Hoopers have gone through a lot this past season. They had their share of ups and downs, but by the end of the season they got back in the groove. Our ladies played our biggest rival, Whiting. The score was 47-62, Whiting. Unfortunately we lost to them! There were 8 girls on the team. There were 4 Sophomores, 3 Juniors and one Senior. Our ladies would practice IV 2 - 2 hours a day for 5 days a week. They sure did work their little hearts out. During practice, they would psych each other out by doing cheers. One of the cheers that they would do is We are the mighty Hoopers. They had many big games at Gavit, Calumet, East Chicago Roosevelt, Whiting, and Bishop Noll. Two of the most exciting games were against Morton and Gary Wirt. The Morton game was 57-52 O.T. and the Gary Wirt game was 46-47 O.T. Let ' s give a round of applause to Vicki Buth and Vanessa Swanson. Vicki has been named the most improved player and Vanessa has the most points in a game, which happens to be 12.8 points per game. Hoopers finished above .500.

People quite often stereotype a cheerleader as a little priss rah, rah who can ' t withstand much; thinks only of herself; and, has the mentality of an acorn. The Wildcat cheerleader is just the op- posite of that! If anyone thinks differently, he should look back. Remember when the night of a football game was so chilly that the fans were sit- ting on the bleachers wearing so many bundles of clothes and they looked like the Michelin Man? Every bit of flesh was covered — except the cheerleaders ' bright pink popsicle legs. Supposedly everyone has felt the accupuncture syndrome on bare flesh when it gets real cold (that is, it feels like someone has stuck a bunch of pins and needles in the skin.) Undoubtedly, the cheerleaders have felt that painful situation on their extremities too many times. However, they kept on smiling and continued to cheer. If there ' s a person who says H.H.S. cheerleaders can ' t with- stand anything, have him her stick a family of porcupines on his body and then try to sing the words to Hammond Loyalty. If anybody says H.H.S. cheerleaders think only about themselves, then he must not know that when the football team went to away games, the cheerleaders would station themselves along the route. When the team bus went by, the cheerleaders would hold up signs with en- couraging words. Or how about wher they decorated the lockers of the senior football players every day during Homecoming Week and their houses the night before the game? The money for the decorations came from the pockets of the cheerleaders. They also helped collect money for the United Way. Is it selfish that the cheerleaders perform so the athletes will see spirit and play to their fullest potential? Sure, it might be possible to train a chim- panzee the movements of a cheer - anybody could do the cheers after enough practice. However, it takes a lot more than an acorn brain to create unique sayings, movements, and perform no matter what the mood is. That ' s the job of a poet, choreographer and actress or sometimes a cheerleader. The cheerleaders produced many pep assemblies - that takes an organized and creative mind. Even if none of that were true, take a look at the Na- tional Honor Society - cheerleaders are there, too. For once, the football team recognized their biggest supporters with a cake this year. They deserved it. Even though the cheerleaders learned to grin and bear it through a lot, they probably could have used a cheerleader themselves.

Hoping that Chris Schutter doesn ' t have butterfingers, Kelley Green lets herself freefall Almost ever since the football team was formed in 1905, there has been some sort of booster club or cheerleader. However, they were all male until the late 1940 ' s. Also around that time, the cheerleaders decided our school mascot should appear with them. A re | wildcat would not have been practical though — and so the beginning of a honored cheerleader dressing up as Willie. Dey are such funny poys und girls. Dot leedle freshman class; Dey are so full of pranks and fun, Ve vunder dot dey pass! Dose poys! dey jump, dey skip, dey shout. Und upset eferyting apout!

To the Seniors, Freshmen have always seemed small. Really, all the upperclassmen think so! Freshmen may not agree, but what do they know? They ' re just little ol ' Freshmen! We didn ' t know if the dif- ference was biological or psychological, so we thought we ' d find out by asking some experts. First we asked a reputable chemistry teacher, Mr. Sizemore. He said that Freshmen are small, but, on an average, they are about the same size they always were. If Freshmen are the same size as always, then why do upperclassmen agree they ' re getting smaller every year? Since we asked another question, we need another answer. This time Mr. Georgas, a psychology teacher, had something to say. He said that while kids are bigger today, in general, to the Seniors, Freshmen are inferior. Inferior? Maybe. We must get a few opinions. The question we asked was: Do you think Freshmen are small? Here are the answers: Freshman L.M. said, I think freshmen are puny. I mean the guys are so small and skinny. Hopefully they ' ll get bigger.” Wow! a Freshman cutting down other Freshmen. Maybe we ' d better ask another. S.M. said, No. we ' re not small.” To top it off, we asked a Senior, K.E., who said that, honestly, she did see them as small, but then she wasn ' t a very big Freshman either. (Maybe even smaller in the eyes of past Seniors.) Well, Freshmen, don ' t feel bad! You ' re only a Freshman once. )ust look at it this way, you ' ve got three years ahead of you, to tell other Freshmen how small they are. That ' s it! — the answer. It ' s just a tradition to tell Freshmen they ' re tiny. It ' s revenge! 108 Freshmen Lynn-Ontiveros Cara Ostrovsky Reginald Parker Todd Paterson Mark Perkins Bruce Percak Thomas Peterson Latoya Pharms Donna Phillips Wendy Polos Keith Posey Laura Powell Tracy Price Theresa Puentes Ray Ramirez Alberto Ramos Rick Ramos Bonnie Rangel Leticia Ratley Darnell Rias Roger Rias Donna Riffle Tina Riffle Charlton Ridgell Tom Ringel Bryan Ripple Steve Ritz Chris Robinson Dale Robinson Tammy Robinson Christine Rodriguez Robert Rodriguez Tania Roman Sherry Romine Jos Rosario Trade Ross Bobbie Rushing Eric Sandefur Danyale Sanders Geoffery Sanders Ken Sanders Patrick Sanders Shannon Sanders Sue Sanders Tracey Sanson Phil Saylor Jim Schmidt Carl Schneider Sheri Scott Garrison Semon Kevin Sessum Wes Shank Chuck Sharp Danny Sharp Terence Shaw Mike Shemwell Kenneth Shepperson Freshmen Ostrovsky-Shepperson 109 Brian Shumaker lim Schuster Benjamin Simmons Shaun Simmons Veronica Simmons Aulderson Slade Carolyn Smith Floyd Smith Martha Smith Sandra Sotelo Denise So wards Eric Stanek Ed Stanford Tanya Stanish Alvin Stately lohn Stately Clen Stevens Shay Stokes Monica Storiale karatta Swan Gina Tabor Lupita Tapia landa Taylor Michelle Taylor Rose Terry Debra Teumer Tommy Tolle Eunice Torres Dennis Tucker Ken Tucker Wanda Tussey Brian Twitty Berry Vaahls Marithza Valdez Alex Vargas “The School is a Maze,” Say Most of the Freshmen The moment I walk through the door, my stomach starts turning. I see a monstrous maze that scares me just to look at. Now I have to find my homeroom. Where is the gym? All I know, is that it is somewhere on the first floor. Or do they call this the bottom floor? I walk up and down the hall five or six times. I see another student, so I build up all of my courage and go up to him and ask, Uh, excuse me c..c..could you t..t.. tell me wh..wh.. where the gym is? ' ' This is the guidance area. All you have to do is to go straight down the hall and turn left when you see another hall. It ' s the first room on the right. I follow his directions, but when I get to the room I find that this is not the gym. It is the band room. I guess that the kid who gave me direc- tions must have been a confident-looking Freshman. I finally make it to the gym, but there is only thirty seconds left. My next class is on the third floor. As I walk up the stairs, I don ' t pay attention to where I ' m going. Finally, when I get all the way up, I find that I can ' t go any fur- ther. I ' ve been trapped at the dead-end stairwell!! I walk back down, feeling my face getting very red. I get to class and sit down. A girl starts talking to me. Oh. I remember when I was a Freshman. I had very embarrassing moments, she says comfortingly. Yeah, I can remember my freshman days clearly too, a girl named Pam breaks in. I can remember sitting in the wrong homeroom. I didn ' t find out about it until almost the end of the class. Don ' t worry. You ' ll get used to it after a while, the girls say in unison. 110 Freshmen Shumaker-Vargas Freshman Homecoming Princess.

It ' s doubtful, but certainly such momentoes as year- books, letterman ' s jackets, and class rings serve as valuable reminders of the past. By tradition, the Sophomore Class has the right to choose the ring company. This year the win- ner was Balfour. The class ring legacy probably started with the Class of 1918. In the past, everyone ' s ring was the same — no options were available. The Class of 1923 adopted the H.H.S. of- ficial seal which is used on many of today ' s rings. Right after the Balfour representative delivered his ring spiel. Sophomores were faced with some of the big- gest decisions they would meet during their high school career - What type of metal do I want and which can I afford? — gold or silver. What style ring do I want? - the traditional shape or one of the fancy designer types. What about the shape of the stone? — square, oval, heart-shaped, etc. What color should the stone be? — my birthstone, favorite color, or purple. Should I have the wildcat, an activity design, year of graduation, or school seal on the sides? Should I have my name on the inside? What size do I even wear? — Oh, that guy with those tin ring size indicators will tell me. I feel an ulcer now. Finally, after many months of waiting after the final con- tract was signed. Sophomores actually see what the many ring specifications they had evi- sioned look like. Nothing is quite like the day the rings arrive. Sophomores non- chalantly place their hand with the ring on it in con- spicuous places so the world can see their new ring. The only question left is: I wonder if when I ' m thirty and if I ' m bored with my ring, if there ' ll be newspaper ads that say, ' We want your high school ring ' ?

Clump, I do a log roll onto the floor. No, no, no, this is all a nightmare! I think. It can ' t be the first day of sch.., sch.., school! The thought of the grind bewidlers me. Didn ' t we just take those ex- crutiating finals? I now crate my body back to the bed and begin pondering my miserable situation, Think of all those boring teachers, boring assignment, boring . . . (yawn). The next thing that I ' m conscious of is my mother ' s piercing voice traveling the speed of light up the stair- way. Babette, the carpool is outside. I sit straight up in my bed as fast as a teeter totter board moves when a fat man sits on the opposite side of a featherweight. I spring off my bed and jump into yesterday-worn jeans while they ' re still on the hook. I finish dressing and fly down the steps. On the way to the door I trip over the dog. I bet my mother has the DICK VAN DYKE SHOW theme song in her mind after witnessing that. Upon arriving at school, I open the car door and realize that my belt hung outside the door and was dragged the whole trip. I can ' t believe that I could take the time to put on a belt, but I couldn ' t brush my teeth this morning. They feel as if they have the fur of a pipe cleaner on them. I ' m glad that I won ' t be smiling today. I walk to my homeroom with the fear that everyone else will be dressed up for the first day. As I pass through the threshold of my homeroom ' s door, the day suddenly brightens up. Everyone in the room is just as spiffed-up for the first day as I.

What am I doing get- ting up on a Saturday morn- ing? The only people who get up early on Saturdays are the members of the school debate team and Saturday-morning bowlers. I feel a pain. It starts in my stomach and gnaws its way up my throat. My eyes water and head throbs. I fee l dizzy. I haven ' t felt this bad since I survived the Tidal Wave thirty-seven times in a row at Great America last )une. It ' s the day of the S.A.T. ' s! Fifteen minutes later, my friends arrive. As I squeeze into the car between Flabby Flo and Garlic Breath Gus, I realize that everyone else looks as green as I feel. Usually Perky Pam sits in the corner of the car, reading How to Beat the S.A.T. for the seventeenth time. Harold the Hunk wonders aloud if it ' s too late to take the S.A.T. preparation course. Finally we arrive. Under ordinary circumstances, I ' d get into a fistfight with other students - I ' m at a rival school, afterall — but most I can muster today is to throw a TUMS wrapper on the ground. I must have blacked out because the next thing I know. I ' m seated on a cold chair with an IBM sheet in front of me. All those empty circles look like the eyes of a zombie. Soon it ' s time to begin. I clutch my pencil. The adrenaline starts pumping. Ready? Begin! As I near the end of the vocabulary questions, I begin to feel bad. A bat- tleship is fighting in my stomach. Why? Analogies are next! I glance around the room. Polly the Preppy has just passed out. Analogies take another victim! The people near her don ' t even look her way. They only have twenty minutes to finish the test. It begins during the Reading Comprehension questions. It ' s light and limited first. Soon it grows. It ' s almost a roar. How can anyone concentrate while everyone is coughing? It ' s impossible, so give up. Who cares about how rats react to external stimuli? I ' m soon cheerfully tapping out the bass to IINGLE BELLS. Hours later, the tests are finally over. I go to the other side of the room, being careful not to step on anyone and try to help pick up Polly the Preppy. Hermetical is to supine as what is to lunchbox ? she murmurs as I pick up her legs. As I step outside, the sunlight hurts my eyes and the fresh air burns my lungs. That was a piece of cake, I say, squeezing into the car between Gus and Flo. The others look at me like I ' m an escaped mental patient and we all go out for lunch. You’ve Come a Long Way, Baby Who would ever believe these cute, cuddly kids are all grown up and here at Hammond High? Along with going from dirty diapers to designer jeans, most have also traded in their Dr. Dentons for Calvin Kleins and their bottles of milk for other types of bottles. Now don ' t laugh too hard, just take a trip down memory lane and remember what you looked like when you were a baby. }uouj|ag of Aqag 9 ip!SO|i?3 jw e ajooyy iiuex S U9A Aaejj. 3 Ae| sjyy jaunjqny Aipe ' japnqas s.uiq ' jauSeM lllf l 124 Seniors Baby Pictures ▲7 ||aipi! uu;f 6 japiauips iw 9 ipiAO |sejQ ssjw Z ▲ xoj uuy A-iew ' 8 J3||!W eu|i s sujopv euio z ▲9 UPUiJOQ U3||30f Y Djjsox euuoa jw L 125 A vot ’ l5enioc$ We only ask of those who come To take our place, our race to run That they will always faithful be Their work to do, the right to see; That they may make a better name.

Carl Richardson takes the ball down court. College Brochures: Answer to Energy Crisis College brochures. They ususally begin to arrive at the homes of millions of high school students near the end of the junior year. At first the flow is just a trickle. Then it grows to a steady stream. Finally, by Christmas of our Senior year, we are drowning in a hur- ricane of college brochures. I first knew that I was in trouble one sunny August day. The mailmen carried bag after bag of mail to the porch. I opened one bag and everyting in it was addressed to me. So was everything in the other forty-nine bags; it was all col- lege literature. I never even considered reading all my mail; there was just too much. In- stead I decided to put the paper to use: I wallpapered my entire house with col- lege brochures. The neighbors were im- pressed (not everyone can wash their walls and compare student teacher ratios at the same time). Soon they began to beg me for some of my brochures. I supplied enough paper to completely cover one-half of the houses on the street (I lived on Hohman Ave.) Still, the left-over brochures filled my basement. After deciding that I needed a little pocket money, I had my own paper drive and cashed in some of the brochures at a recycling plant. How much money did I make? Well let ' s just say that 1 now own a Mercedes Benz and loan money to the bank. The brochures have come in handy for little household projects. We in- sulated the attic with them. My little sister couldn ' t reach the kitchen table; so, we made her a booster seat with them. Bored Grandma made a paper chain with them (it reaches seven miles). Rover was potty trained on them. As Fall turned into Winter, I was still wondering what to do with the rest of the brochures. After my parents receiv- ed the first heating bill of the winter, I found a master plan. Last winter we heated the house entirely by college literature (we threw it in the furnace). The sheer volume of paper was enough to carry us through April and we all learned why the cost of a college education is so high: Colleges raise the tuitions to pay for all the paper they waste. I just hope they never take me off their mailing list. G A The Tragedy of Portraits Give us a nice smile. That ' s good. Can you turn your head a little more? Right there! Now tilt it a little to the right. Good, good. Now look over here. O.K., ready? Wait a minute, let me fix your hair, it ' s sticking up on the side. don ' t believe this. Hey, guy, this is really natural, I thought. I always happen to strike a pose behind a mobile, plastic log with a bucket of weeds in front of it. But even more often, I get dressed up and lay on the floor. Oh, good — at least now I get to sit in a chair. Oh, NO! it ' s made of weeds too. I guess the wicker throne isn ' t so bad though, except when the guy insists on having the bucket of weeds in that picture too. Wait a second - is this my Senior picture or the weed ' s? The photographer has got to be a part time gardner. O.K., Honey, come on over here, he coaxed. Hold this rose and try to look at it lovingly, O.K. Of all the hokie positions, I thought as I pictured my friends look- ing at my proofs. I don ' t believe I ' ll ever live this down. All right, he says, We ' re fin- ished. I ' ll see you again in about six to eight weeks when you come to look at your proofs. Do a good job retouching, I shouted over my shoulder as I left the studio and headed for the phar- macy to buy some Ben Gay for my sore neck and cheek muscles.

Here ' s to the faculty with whose help we have struggled over the hard places, groped our way through the obscure recesses and searched for the light when nothing but darkness was apparent — the faculty with whose true kind- ness and sympathetic aid we have been enabled to attain heights which other- wise would have remained inaccessible to us. Long life and true happiness to the faculty. From the 1918 DUNES Plate from the 1905 annual I AC III. I Y Oh HAMMOND HIOII SCHOOL 140 People Faculty Ms. Elizabeth Ennis who served as the new principal for the 1983-84 school year is only the third woman in Indiana to hold this position and broke the H.H.S. tradition of male principals. It is with great pride and warm feel- ings of friendship that I greet you as your principal. I am pleased to know that in the one hundredth year of this school ' s history the Dunes can proudly record the achievements and events marking this year as an historical one. As we look to the next decade, I am hopeful that Hammond High School will be regarded as a lighthouse for all who seek an education in an environment which fosters human understanding, in- dividual dignity and the pursuit of excellence. I extend to the Classes of 1987, ' 86, and ' 85 sincere good wishes for suc- cessful high school years at Hammond High. To the Centennial Year Class of 1984, congratulations and warm regards to each of you. Good luck! DR. RUTH TANNER — Assistant Principal MR.

While a student at H.H.S., Mr Dawson played tennis for three years; was the varsity captain for the basketball team; and, was the Indiana State High lumper Champion and a state champ in the 440 Relay Since 1984 was an Olympic year, it is timely to discuss what would have happened if there was an Olympics just for teachers Definitely there would have been a lot of gold brought back from the event to H.H.S. and a few months after it, several of our teachers might have appeared on a box of Wheaties. Afterall. just like the Wildcat student-athletes whose motto is Never say die, the teacher-athletes strive for victory and quite often have achiev- ed it, Our physics teacher, Mr Erikson, is one of the swimmers honored in the country ' s Swimming Hall of Fame He held the record there for swimming the double English Channel swim for ten years. Why did he swim across the channel to France and then turn around and swim back? (most channel swimmers swim one way only) Because I didn ' t understand what the French girls said, so I had to swim back Mr Erikson wasn ' t interested in swimming until the age of 30 when he decided to take it up since it ' s cheap, relaxing and exercises all parts of the body H.H.S. doesn ' t lack teacher runners - there are at least four who aren ' t coaches either, it ' s a hobby Mr. Urick started to run to help stop smoking and to lose weight. He runs just to finish the race. Although he hasn ' t won any awards, he has finished several six mile races. A little while after her husband started running, Mrs. Urick decid- ed to take the sport up too. The hardest event for her was when she first ran competitively — she came in next to last and a 69-year-old woman beat her Our French teacher later found the winning edge though — she ran in the Gold Cup Series and finished second in her age group After a knee injury she received while playing soccer early in the school year, Mrs. Urick has had to let up on the running. However, when she has extra time in school she briskly walks the hallways for exercise. Another Gold Cup runner (1 1th in his age group) is Mr Ruf He also chose this sport to get in shape His accomplishments include finishing a half marathon (13 1 miles). The runner whom the other teacher-runners call the best is Mr O ' Rourke Mr O ' Rourke began running in 1972. He said that he started running because he was getting fat, but that now running has become a real obsession for him Mr O ' Rourke ' s greatest achievement was completing a 26 mile marathon Quite a feat! Almost every one of the H.H.S. coaches is an outstanding athlete too. It seems that all the teacher athletes took up sports to get in shape Maybe a nice addition to the faculty lounge would be some exercise equipment.

MARY ANN MOLCHAN — Counselor Sculptors of the Future All teachers at H.H.S. are artists in a certain sense The DUNES definition of an artist is: a creative person who shares an experience, feeling, knowledge or an idea with others Indeed each teacher must have been a type of Michelangelo to get some of the difficult concepts through the stubborn minds of teenagers Not too many art galleries will accept a developed teenager mind as a work of art though. However, the art society has honored the chef d ' oeuvres created by H.H.S. teachers who paint for a hobby Mr Sizemore, our Chemistry-Biology teacher, had always dreamed of becom- ing a professional artist since he was a child but never considered it seriously enough to have any other training than one art dass. Unde Chuck” must have dreamed upon enough stars though - twelve years ago he started painting rural landscapes professionally There are now collectors of his works in many parts of the country Also, he has won 7075 art fair awards and once won a $500 Best of Show award The Northern Indiana Art Gallery and the South Bend Art Assoc plus many other art groups have recognized Mr Ball, our art teacher, with awards for his abstract and expressionist ic art. Art has been Mr Ball ' s profession and hobby for 35 years. He loves to do art projects for H.H.S. and customers when he has the time to do them well There are also many other forms of art from macrame to photography that are after-school activities for the members of the faculty Taking into mind Amy Lowell ' s philosophy, Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in. It would be interesting to know if the Wildcats have swayed the subject of a teacher ' s project of a latch- hook rug or the weaving of a basket 144 During summer months, Mr Sizemore ' s paintings won another blue ribbon at Griffith ' s Art in the Park ' MR.

For once we were trying to be serious! However, it seemed as though the teachers were trying to outdo each other with outrageous answers. It appeared to be a contest (and we all know how much the DUNES Staff likes contests), so we judged the entries. (However, not all teachers answered with funny answers, so they weren ' t judged. Some answers we picked as answers may not have been meant to be funny, but we liked them anyway — so they were judged.) A panel of DUNES Staff members rated each answer (on a scale from one to ten) for humor and creativity. The results were as follows: What are some of your hobbies (Noncompeting teachers ' favorites were: listening to music; reading; fishing; and gardening - these were the most popular) First prize: Earthworm vivi- sectionalism - Mr Calosich Second prize: Silly walks — Mr. Aldrin Third prize: Sailing at the yacht dub - Mr. Maka Honorable mention: Writing novels that don ' t sell - Mrs. Dix Do you have any pets 1 What A ■ .

Mr. James Ruf (alias Superuf) was named the 1984 Outstanding Teacher by students and faculty. The Hammond Clark graduate has been teaching in the Hammond School System for over thirteen years. He always wanted to be a teacher because it fascinated him. Mr. Ruf commented, I was shocked that I was picked. I wasn ' t expecting it. What did he hope to have at the banquet for outstanding teachers? Steak and a good time.

The old 1893 building, which housed H.H.S. and later Hammond Tech, was finally torn down in Febuary of 1952 to make room for the present Russell Street parking lot. The cornerstone of the 1893 H.H.S. building is to be placed on H.H.S. property as a memorial during this 1984 centennial year as a part of the celebration by the students Returning to the early history, it sould be noted that in 1900 the Hammond High School football team, playing its games at the pre- sent Harrison Park site, won one of the three games played. On October 8, 1891, the first telephone bill of $2.50 and the first light bill for $13.50 was paid by the School City. This began an era on interaction between the School City and utility companies which has played a major part in the budgeting of school monies even to the present day. In 1901 Mr. W. |. Hershman became Superintendent of Schools following the resignation of Superintendent Belman. The first mention of a purchase of equipment to be used in the classes is the notation of a purchase of a Bausch and Lomb microscope for the high school on September 12, 1902. The first music director, Mr. Clark Learning, was employed for the 1904-1905 school year and on lune 8, 1905 the School Board ap- proved the employment of Mr. A. L. Spohn as a teacher of English for the coming school year. The class of 1905 and the class of 1906 together published the first H.H.S. Annual which was the forerunner of the DUNES. The class of 1906 claimed the mythical state championship in boys ' basketball after a 10 won, 4 lost season and the girls ' basket- ball team also claimed the championship, although no mention is made of their won-lost record. The girls ' team coached by A. L. Spohn and a notation of his coaching made by the principal is as follows: Professor Sphon coached and due credit should be given him for his earnest and efficient work. In 1908 H.H.S. became a member of the North Central Associa- tion of Secondary Schools and Colleges. By 1910 the school was so crowded that the Board of School Trustees employed loseph T. Hutton, an architect, to draw plans and specifications for a new Manual Training and Industrial High School, to be erected at the corner of Calument Avenue and Hart Street (now Highland Street). After bids were sent out, the construction firm of Caldwell and Drake received the general contract and in 1911 Mr. Carl Bauer, with some citizen backing, sued the Board of School Trustees and the contractor to prevent construction of the present building. Despite years of legal entanglement, most of the present building was completed in 1917 and the first class to be graduated from the present building received their diplomas in )une of 1918. There was no gym, pool, auditorium or cafeteria as yet. During the period of the litigation over the construction of the present building, which ended up in the Indiana Supreme Court, the Hammond School Board rented the lefferson building to house those students enrolled in a business or commercial course of study. The students still in the 1893 building could congregate on the third floor and actually cause the building to sway at their will. Needless to say, this did not sit well with teachers or the principals. Miss Marian Dieterich, a former H.H.S. teacher, was a student in the old building at that time and related the above incident as well as a story about the long benches with arm rests for writing that were used by the students. The student sitting at one end of the bench would pass a rope underneath the bench to the student at the opposite end, tie a tin can to the rope and when the teacher was not looking, one student would give slack to the rope causing the tin can to hit the floor and the student would then immediately tighten the rope rais- ing the tin can off (con ' t on page 167) This segment of H.H.S.

Of course, students today would never do such a terrible prank. The School Board also began to rent space in the evening in order to increase its treasury. Each Friday night when there were no high school games being played, the Assembly Hall was rented for $8.00 to Mr. Walter Walsh for his basketball team to play one of their games. If they did not have a game and the team held practice, the charge for the renta l of the Assembly Hall was .75 t per practice. School basketball games had been played in this facility since 1903. The School Board also rented a room in the Irving School to the First Ward Branch of the Socialist party. They rented the room twice a month for the cost of janitorial services. At least Hammond High was not a party to that contract. Vocational Education first appeared in Hammond when Mr. F. D. McElroy was appointed Director of Vocational Education for the High School on November 10, 1913. Mr. McElroy was already the principal of the H.H.S. and had been since 1908. To this point and time, there has been no mention in the Annuals of a junior-senior prom, any specific school song, a student association or even an extra-curricular activity club. In 1913, 1914, and 1915 the Hammond High School Interscholastic Debating Team organized by Mr. Murray in 1913 was competing against schools throughout the region. The public speaking classes had formed a drama group and produced a play entitled “Four Farces in the Assembly Hall in 1913. On January 8, 1915 the public speaking classes produced and presented the play You Never Can Tell. In the fall of 1915 the football team under Captain Miller won four games and tied South Bend before losing the championship to Cary at the Hammond Athletic Association Park, now Harrison Park, by a score of 20 to 0. Their victories were over Bowen High School in Chicago, Harvey, IL, Chicago Heights, IL, and Rensselear, IN. Their coach was Mr. Levering. During the World War I years the high point of each school year was the Oratorical Contest of Lake Country which was held in April. 931-4000 In 1915 the contest was held in the First Methodist Church on Russell Street in Hammond and the Northern Indiana Regional Contest was held in South Bend. Ethel Hirsch and John Dye of Hammond High School were the first place winners in the 1915 contest. A gold scholarship medal was given by Colonel LeCrand T. Meyer and was awarded to Mary Kabilla Trotter. This was the forerunner of the Valedictorian Award. Later, Colonel Meyer added a sliver medal to the second highest scholar in the graduating class establishing the salutatorian award for Hammond High School. By 1915 a number of choral groups and the Girls ' Glee Club had been organized under Miss Reynolds and her high school chorus had won the Gary Vocal Music Contest in 1914 and was runner-up in 1915. The 1916 Annual had a staff of fifteen students with five faculty advisors. Mr. Murray was the literary advisor, Mr. R. G. Rupp was the business advisor, and Miss Foster, Mr. Mailer, and Miss Nold were art advisors for the Annual. Mr. R. G. Rupp had been teaching at H.H.S. since 1910. By 1916 the senior class numbered 32 of the approximately 75 students who had entered as freshmen. Most of the boys during that period were required to have a least half-time, if not full-time, employment to help the family. Since this very early period in the history of Hammond High there have been literally thousands of graduates who have both given and received in the educational process which takes place in the hallowed halls of Hammond High School. The Commemorative Chronicle goes far beyond the above brief sketch of the early history of H.H.S. by including people and events from every class where any written record is available. It in- cludes information of the beginnings of the various clubs and the many activities which were begun at H.H.S. as well as the athletic records, and closes with a portion of the record written by the pre- sent co-editors of the 1984 DUNES. Hammond High School has a great history and if the above sketch is of any interest to the reader, there is no doubt of a far greater in- terest to be generated by the Commemorative Chronicle, a com- panion to this 1984 DUNES.

After Mr. Schneider has given directions on what part of Calumet Ave. her car load should hit for ads, Co-editor Julie Griffith says, What did he say? From the Desk of Ima Shrink (Con’t. From P. 72). in a week? J. : STOP THAT! K. : QUIT IT! Dr.: Stop what? If you don ' t stop shouting I ' m going to have to . . . K.: You have so many zits on your chin that I can ' t even count them. Dr.: I beg your pardon! ).: We made Delmar go count all the gum under the cafeteria tables. Dr.: Isn ' t that rather cruel? K.: And we had to teach him French for our Blue Light Special commercial. I am appalled that you asked me who played Andy Rooney, Rocky, and Mr. Rogers; it was really them. Dr.: Commercial? ).: And Kathy dropped her pizza on the floor and some girl stepped on it. K.: And Julie tripped over a rock in the Hyatt Legal Services office. Dr.: Were you trying to sue someone? J. : YES. EXIT. K. : EXIT. YES. I think no further explanation is re- quired. Recommendation: padded walls in the publications room. Con- stant supervision if possible. A nursery school-like environment would be excellent. When I informed Miss Ennis about these plans she commented, I don ' t know what it is about yearbook editors; they start off so nice and then they turn weird. It is extremely doubtful that they will be able to write their own editors ' notes. When I mentioned that this was the only thing left to complete, they threw a hard, Rice Crispie Treat Cupid at me. As a final proof of their disturbed mental condition, I offer these drawings: Purpose: To produce pictures, stories, and layouts that will form an official school scrapbook that will help students relive the high school year. To give staff members journalistic experiences. The graduates of 1906 were the first Wildcats to have a yearbook. The first annual was a purple, soft-bound, plain-looking, string-bound book; only three of them are known to be existing today. Production of the DUNES was not annual until 1916 when the books took on a narrower appearance (several years later it widened back to original size); in 1925 the first hard- bound book was produced. The yearbook wasn ' t called the DUNES until 1920 when it was named after the state (and now national) lakeshore which the students thought was beautiful and significant.

After such an outstanding century and a particularly ex- cellent centennial celebration year, the Wildcats believed it would be impossible to im- prove upon the level of greatness that had been achieved at the school. Giving the general opinion of all the Wildcats, one student commented, Were closing her down now because just like the stars from the hit t.v. show M A S H, we want to end on the top of the heap 175 Celebrate the Bicentennial! ship, and sportsmanship; that thus in these ways transmit Hammond High School greater, better, and more beautiful than it was transmit- ted to me. LONG LIVE DEAR OLD HAM- MOND HIGH! 176 Fortunately, the article on the preceding page is a false report. Im- agine if it were true. We would have been rather selfish. The school was great on its fiftieth anniversary also, but the Wildcats passed it on! Never again could such a fine line of school traditions be formed. We did our part in the Hammond High legacy: we accepted and car- ried on traditions plus we helped improve our school. We upheld our pledge, to maintain standards of citizenship, leadership, scholar- ■UHnHHBHHHMH I Ml H AMMOND HIGH
