YA! AFTER ATTEMPTING .1 tamous excuse, (we got a Hat), junior Dwayne Lawrence surren- ders and signs an ISS form personally made lor him by vice-principal Johnelle Jones. Not bad for a start; huh? Just wait and see what's on the other 233 pages. OK, A yearbook's a yearbook. It's the same as last year, but they changed the cover, and gosh, there's probably even a different football player in every picture. Sound familiar? Well, after you flip through and find all your friends, look again. So, you'll see foot- ball players and cheer- leaders; maybe there's a picture of a Senator or an administrator every once in a while, too. They were easy to catch. Too bad ev- eryone wasn't. But there's more. Go on, turn the page and see for yourself we caught you .... —■ HOSS (SR. RON LEDGERWOOD) GETS HOISTED up by fellow football player Jeff Lewis in a fit of comraderie during a pep rally. THE 19 'RAI GOES ON G'night Mom, Dad. You shut the door, turn off the light, hop in bed. The front door locks the dog out for the last time 'til morning. The living room lights go off, the bedroom door closes-wait 5 minutes. You tear off the covers put on your shoes and open your levelor blinds just in time to see the headlights of the car shut off two houses down. Out the window! It was just the chance you had to take for the life after hours and what was known as ... ALL OF THE ABOVE Starting PG. 6 It can't be- I swear I just closed my eyes. You peel your eyes open in time to see the red digital numbers flash at you accusingly. You drag yourself out of bed realizing the floor's even colder than yesterday morning. The next thing you know you're standing on the edge of the pool at 5:30 of what feels like the coldest winter ever. Every sport was blessed with ... SEASON’S GREETINGS Starting PG. 36 You glance at your watch on the counter before you climb into the shower - 9:15 - and put on the first thing you see. No time to do your hair. You get to class as the unknown announcer reminds you ... Oh. well, no one looks good on picture day .. . PICTURE PERFECT Starting PG. 70 By the time the paper reaches you it's already half full of names. You pick up your Eraser Mate, sign your John Hancock, and BOOM vou're a member. Wait-not so fast? Huh? We don't have a German Club? Because our constitution's in German? That's not fair! They can’t do this! Every club had 'em .... DUES DON’TS Starting PG. 116 You race down the hall, opening the door as quietly as possible, praying he isn't taking roll or everyone will stare at you like you'd committed the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Thirty eyes follow you as you walk to your desk (3rd row, far left) trying to remember who was late to first class last year and click” caught you! It was just the beginning of ... A’s B’s Zzzz Starting PG. 158 You sneak back to your car chuckling to yourself (they're going to be stuck in traffic for hours, good thing we left early). You quickly turn the corner and stare in shock- at the mass of people decked out in red white rushing back to their cars. Guess I should have remembered, all Normanites hate game day traffic .... IT ALL ADS UP Starting PG. 176 Volume 79 Norman High School 911 West Main Norman, Oklahoma 73069 caught utn Confusions The beginning of a new school year marked a time not only for change and involvement, but also for confusion in the lives of students. A new student constitution, a shorter school day, and a longer, single lunch were all significant changes from years past. With the election year, of course, came contro- versy. But while the nation was debating candi- dates, NHS was caught up in its own political situation that was causing attention. The new year brought the debut of student congress and with it came power. Congress was run by the students, for the students. Removing the homeroom period from the daily schedule of events made room for a longer, sin- gle lunch. Students loved the extra free time and chance to go to lunch with all their friends, but getting out of the parking lot was a challenging and trying experience with 1,300 kids all head- ing the same direction at the same time. The Olympic Games, the passing of liquor by the drink, the Chicago Cubs winning the Nation- al League East Pennant, and for once a relatively dry homecoming were all major happenings making this year entirely different from all others. TIGER PRIDE Getting into the spirit of the moment, the band dressed up a little out of the ordinary ' for the first after-school pep rally. The front lawn served as the perfect site to display the original orange and black pnde. Cassie Onofrey gets caught up in the excitement. PENi: OPENING BREAKAWAY ----------------- Time spent after the bell rang was looked forward to by all students. Some of those who didn't have lobs to keep them busy got together with friends and formed an intramural flag football team. Amy Johnson runs toward daylight during an after- noon game. CRAMMING ------------------ Leigh Shepherd and Lisa Workman go over the answers to a World History test they had just taken with Mr. Mohr When no? working or play mg. students sometimes found time for studying. FITTING IN ------------------ Swedish foreign exchange student Manna Jerger takes in the action at the homecoming bonfire. Adjusting to the Norman way of life seemed to come easy for Manna. She looked forward to graduating and taking a part of Amenca with me back to my homeland. OP] LNINC NOT JUST A JOB -------- Members of the Explorer Post. Matt Dobberteen and Greg Collins, view the action of an Oklaho- ma University football game. The group, kind of like a Boy Scout troupe doing good deeds , worked as the stretcher crew on the sidelines at the Saturday afternoon home games at Owen Stadium. BREAKING MONOTONY— Band members spent many of their summer hours practicing and perfecting not only their playing, but also their marching skills. Breaking the monotony of a long hot practice took a lot of creativity, and Amy Langenbach and friend make the best of the situation. BACK TO BASICS ----------------- Caught up in the chaos and commotion of enroll- ment day. senior Jon Ed Brown fills out one of the numerous forms required of everyone. Although most saw enrollment day as a pain and a waste of time, it was a great chance to see old friends and officially say goodbye to summer. OPEJ NG MORE THAN AN ACT ---------------- Elizabeth Richardson watches the action ot the qame while holding Rhonda Cantrell in a shoul- der stand. Spectators at sporting events were reintroduced to a word not usually lound in the typical NHS student's vocabulary — spmt. JUST ONE OF THE CROWD ------------------------ The Wave mode its debut in Norman at an Okla- homa University football game. Campus played an important part in most every student's life, whether it be a place to work or a place to party! Kinr . cAuaiqn The Middle With one of the largest enrollments in Nor- man High history, it didn't take students half as long to locate their first block class on the first day of school as it did to find a familiar face caught up in the crowd. It wasn't long until staying up late and waking up early was once again part of every student's daily routine. By this time in our lives we were so used to hectic, demanding schedules that we almost found them comfortable. Having the state's third largest high school, not to mention the second largest (and we feel best) university, all eyes were upon Norman. Living in the state's fastest growing city, we were the first to make the latest news and carry out the newest trends. Being caught in the middle of the action was nothing new to us, but practically a way of life. After all, we were smothered with influences from the University of Oklahoma, and not only were the center of Oklahoma, but also the Unit- ed States. A.L.L 0.F T.H.E A.B.O.V.E t u d e n t life: Not too shock- what went on after the bell rang seemed more important than be- ing at school. Activities varied from person to person, but fol- lowing more mellow week nights everyone looked to find great ex- citement on the week- ends. One night, to break the monotony, a couple of friends and I went and shoe polished as many people's cars as we could without getting caught” said Destiny Lehew. Weekends seemed to be more for dates and parties. If you weren't lucky enough to get a date, there was always sure to be a party just a few minutes away. And if the party was boring you could always go to a movie, to eat, search for a new love-or all of the above. HAVING A GOOD TIME, Dwayne Howard looks on at the festivities of the Beat John Mar- shall pep assembly. STUDENT LIFE DIVIDER WICE AS NICE STUD The forecast predicted rain, what a scare! Please, not a repeat performance of what hap- pened last year when the 17 of rain washed away all the festivities. But what a relief! Mother nature was on our side this year. She held back the rain until the week was over, making home- coming twice as nice. The royalty also proved twice as nice for the second time winners Jimmy Ladd and Elizabeth Richardson. Homecoming week provided a break in the monotonous life of the everyday student. This week the students decided to go on a Lion Hunt. Dressing up on different days increased the want to to endanger the Lions. Students outsmarted the Lions in their college sweat- shirts; the hawaiian look inspired the Tigers to lei out the Lions. On Thursday, suited up in camoflouge and Moorebuster t-shirts, the stu- dents prepared for the hunt, which ended suc- cessfully 17-10.

The traditionally sparse turnout for the pa- rade multiplied at the beginning of the pep rally where Tiger fans gathered at the bon fire. The Band and Football Team members competed in challenging relays. At the conclusion of the pep rally the Choir held a car bash for a fund raiser. The Thursday night bon fire led into the Fri- day morning pep rally where Greg Collins and Mike Knapp dressed up like bums from Moore. With the Tigers in high spirits and ready for the kill it didn't look like anything could stop them. But the halftime score, with Moore in the lead, didn't reflect our eagerness. The football players that were nominated for the royalty were getting fired up in the locker room, while the candidates for Princess and Queen were escorting themselves onto the field, due to confusion in the pressbox. I hurried out of the locker room to escort Paige out onto the field. When I couldn't find her I freaked out! said Paul Behrman. Despite the confusion. Prince Trent Blackley succeeded in crowning Princess Briian Newhouse. The week ended with a victory dance featur- ing Solid State. With band members Bobby Rueda and David Clark being students, even the dance was twice as nice. SITTING ON THE GERMAN CLUB FLOAT. Sieve Canter.

Automatically you think of twins, SRA testing, and Media Productions, right? No? Well the students at NHS did at least. For those of you who walked through the halls and began to think you had double vision”, don't worry! Actually NHS had many sets of twins and at least one set of triplets. Although some of the matched pairs were identical, some were fra- ternal and often not even noticed as being a twin or a triplet. Most people never even noticed that the Blackley's, the triplets, were related. The three seemed to find it strange that hardly anyone ever connected their names and figured it out. The funniest thing that happens to us is when a teach- er has all three of us in her class, and finally around the middle of the year she'll ask us if we're cousins.” said Trent Blackley, the only boy of the three. Another interpretation of take two” was very familiar to the juniors. Everyday during the SRA tests they heard their teacher's voice, Take two 2 pencils with you.” While the seniors were at home, cozy in bed, the juniors were getting up at 6 o'clock in the morning in order to make it to school on time for their eleventh year of testing. I'm just glad it's finally over. It's going to be great next year when we can sleep in and the juniors have to get up and go take tests all morn- ing.” said Paul Behrman. “Take two” had still another meaning to the students in Media Productions. It usually meant a second chance to improve and redo, but not this time. This time, to the class' surprise, there would be no re-take. Their practice shot” would be aired on channel 8 for everyone to view. Take two” may have puzzled some, but NHS students knew exactly what it meant. IN A RARE MOMENT. Ch:. and B: n TV- one of NHS’ sets of twins, are caught together before going their separate ways for the day. ARRIVING AT SCHOOL TOGETHER not uncommon lor Keith and Kevin Morren. The fact that they were twins didn't cause anger or fights. Instead, they were great friends and were often found together dunng the year. student£kife FILMING FOR MEDIA PRODUCTIONS was not dll iun and play. There were practice shots, double takes, and the real thing, which all adder! up to a lot ol work for David Talucci. AFTER TAKING OFF HER HAWAIIAN OUTFIT.

Whether it's at 8:30 Monday morning or at 11:30 on a Saturday night, someone's parking and more than likely, someone's getting caught! At 8:30 a.m. availability was the main problem. That last space in the baseball field was a good choice for adventurous students, since parking there required a lengthy hike. There were still a few curbs left or there was always a teacher space available for the student who flunked that teach- er's last exam. Of course, when the teacher ar- rived to find his space stolen, the violator was yanked out of class to move his car to the baseball field. Illegal parking was often the final solution. As senior Brian Ringer said, I park illegally ev- ery day. Parking at school was an unpleasant activity, but students soon remedied this by visiting their favorite park at lunch or after school. A relaxing lunch plan was to pick up food at a drive-thru and eat at the park. Senior Sean Wilson recalls an experience he had: Greg Witherspoon, Dan Canfield and I agreed to meet Jodi Crown, Tara Murphy, and Amy Davidson for lunch. We brought the drinks and they brought chicken from Grandy's. Well, the chicken was horrible! We tried to be polite, but it didn't work. Anyway, they haven't asked us back. And let's not forget the all-American legacy of parking on a Saturday night date. It's been done for centuries, possibly dating back to ancient Rome when couples would wrestle themselves into a back seat of a chariot. But modern-day parking involves wrestling into a Volkswagen and hoping for the best. If one is lucky, he will have the benefit of a prime location. This is usual- ly defined as far enough away from home to avoid being caught, but close enough so you get home on time. Most people will agree, however that getting caught was one of life's most embar- rassing moments. AS A POLICEWOMAN WRITES HIS TICK- ET. senior Jack DeArmon protests the mass tow- ing that took place October 24. John Bamberger can only agree. KM .1 SCHOOL At 8:25 on the first day of school, I couldn 't even find an illegal parking place! Shane Bumgarner, sr. '7 like Reaves; it has neat playground equipment. Karen Murry, sr.

SOAKING UP the summer sun and listening to some tunes, seniore Amy Davidson and Jodi Crown take advantage ol Late afternoon tanning. ETTER THAN RECESS Is the livin' really that easy in summer? For those who spent their entire summer mesmer- ized by MTV, the answer is yes. But the people who drudged away the day at work might snarl at all the stories of what a GGRRRREAT summer everyone had. Well, it couldn't have been all that bad. Sun surf beckoned a few to places such as Galveston and South Padre Island. Senior Tom Mullins recalls a particularly exciting event of his vacation: I got stung by a man-o'- war at a beach in Padre. It was the funnest part of the vacation.” But the sun was just as bright in Norman where temporarily retired students baked themselves at Westwood Pool, OU Swim Complex or in their own back yards. The blaz- ing sun, a blaring radio and the sweet smell of suntan oil could tempt anyone into suntan- ning, and soon a relaxed body would be Jell- O on a raft. Parties, vacations, work, and sleeping late; sunglasses, beach blankets and long car rides, these were all summer. And the way your head swam more than you did, this was sum- mer. Soon you'd see all the people who had mysteriously disappeared when school got out. But making the summer stretch was still priority one. The best part of summer was going to Senior Lake with Mac, Ernie and Shake Mark Fentriss, sr. About the only exciting thing I did all summer was drive to California doing 100 all the way.

STUDENT LIFE OCKIN’ ’N ROLLIN’ The permits had to be bought and the perfor- mance fees paid for this fall's production of Bye Bye Birdie. Bye Bye Birdie had everything the audience wanted; a darling script, motivated cast, and a smooth presentation. But this didn't just fall together. It took six weeks of rehearsals until all hours of the night with the guidance of Mrs. Jonna Johnson, vocal director; Mrs. Olivia Cunningham, stage director; and April Andre Gandy, choreographer. And they weren't alone. When the curtain went up-,up, the orchestra, directed by Mr. John Clin- ton, was right in front. The 60's were brought to life when Nathan Smith as Conrad Birdie swung his hips to the beat of Honestly Sincere”. Conrad's One Last Kiss made the audience understand why teen-age girls ran around singing We Love you Conrad” every chance they got. He will go far with his acting”, said Shannon Floyd about Smith's performance. The audience took notice when Rose Alverez, portrayed by Jennifer Heavener, sang her solo Spanish Rose”. Jennifer put a lot of work into the play, espe- cially her Spanish Rose” routine and we couldn't have made it without her , said Christy Grizzle. A favorite of the audience was Albert Peterson, the lead, played by Chris Santine. He sang and danced his way into the audience's hearts. He has an awesome voice and he dances great , said Cliff Huddleston. Another favorite was Kelly Furlong who played the meddling mother, Mae Peterson. She would shuffle her way on stage and lay some guilt lines on Albert, making him like putty in her hands. Penny Lane made a brief performance as Gloria Rasputin. Her over-emphasized walk made Chris Santine stumble over his lines. I died laughing when Gloria came on stage walking the way she did,” said Lisa Johnson. Bye Bye Birdie came off as a great success and the audience showed the actors that they appreci- ated their performance by giving them a standing ovation. When I saw the standing ovation, I felt the end of a true success , said Shari Jackson, who played a teen-ager. CONCERNED THAT has gone Peterson to rejoice in a childhood song.

FALL Hjl CAL IFE IS A CABARET Students, students, please get all the Cabaret together and let's do the Can-can, please. At 5 p.m. Friday, February 22, Madame Danisa Hum- phrey's Yugoslav voice shouted orders to every comer of the cafeteria. The preparations for the Ninth Annual Mardi Gras was underway and no one was as frantic as she. Yes, Madame Humphrey was ready for a di- saster at any second. 1 don't know why; nothing's ever gone wrong before, said Judy Williams, the other French Club sponsor. How could anything go wrong? More than two months before the event, French Club members were let loose in Norman to ask for door prizes and donations. As the date grew nearer, all scho- lastic work ceased and the attention was focused on making paper mache dannons and Revolu- tionary flags. Finally on February 23, the finishing touches were all that was left, but still Mme. Humphrey was dashing about like a worm on a hot sidewalk. The cafeteria was soon jamming with people eating, drinking fake champagne, and being morally decadent on this last day before Lent. Almost twenty clubs from Central, West, and NHS participated by operating booths. Any guest could choose from crepes, baked goods, or opt to play a game such as the basketball toss operated by Student Congress. We didn't make much money, but we had a radical time anyway, said Debbie Smith, a Sen- ior Senator. As Jennifer Heavener, Kelly Furlong, and Chris Santine took the stage, the Cabaret began. The cabaret offered the Can-Can girls, student acts, the Pom-Pon girls, and the First Annual Madame Humphrey Look-Alike Contest, which senior Amy Lategola won. How, then can you sum up the Ninth Annual Mardi Gras? Everyone left fat and happy, con- cluded Tara Murphy, Mardi Gras chairperson. TAKING AN INCREDIBLE FASHION RISK to achieve the perfect “Madame-Humphrey-in- an-accident look, Amy Lategola prepares to perform in the look-alike contest. STILL IN HER CAN-CAN COSTUME.

MAR£ i C RAS STytjSrr OLOR ME WITH STYLE Color Me,” was the theme for the Junior Class Style Show, but color me with style was what ran through all the models' minds as they swarmed the stage with smiles and poise. Am I afraid I'll drop my tennis racket during the show? ‘Course not!” said Kenny Langdon. Others, however, weren't as confident of their performance. Whether they admitted it or not, everyone had a case of the pre-show jitters. The Style Show was the type of thing that right before it, I was ready to run away; but afterwards, I wanted to do it again,” said Kim Casey. Even some of the guys felt the tension-and a need to release it. Some friends and I were pretty nervous be- fore the show, so I didn't hesitate for a second to pull off my sweater and play a little basketball,” j said Marty Smuin. Everyone had a different reason for joining the Style Show, but some were a bit more original than others. Well, I decided to emcee the show when I found out there wasn't anything good on T V that night.” said Jeff Jones, one of the M.C.'s. Although the production was total chaos just one night before, with missing lines and un- known outfits, once the curtain went up, everyth- ing fell into place, and there were no major mis- takes. Except the fact that I was really nervous and kept dropping my index cards while the spotlight was on me, everything was great!” said M.C. Lucy Koh. LIFE M.C.’s BRIIAN NEWHOUSE.

Ben Long created a spe- cial-interest book that sent the stu- dents of Mr. Dick Lunger into the aisles with laughter. His hilarious version of “The Col. Lunger Quote Book inspired a smaller spin-off version entitled “Frau Quotes”, compiled by George Griffis. Here is a sample of the most memo- rable utterings: MR. LUNGER: DID YOU NOTICE? Every day we trudge through the halls of NHS and go through the motions of being alive. Fatigue, exhaustion, and soon, rigor mortis, take over our bodies and we walk lifeless until 3:10. We are so numb to our surroundings that even the things that are here every day go unnoticed. Sure we never take time to count the tiles in the LARC ceiling, or record the color of our P.E. teacher’s pencil holder, but there are major differences or weird occurrences that stick in our minds. The following bizarre landmarks are only a few examples: Did you ever notice the ominous steps leading to the BACK WALL of the sciences building? They were left intact after the building’s renovations were complete. To where do they lead? Pat Hook guesses, “to the future.” And does ANYONE really know where the Journalism place is (besides Journalism students)? Everyone we asked said, “Gee, I dunno. where is it?” What about the amusing doors in the li- brary? As Jeff Thacker and Kristi Arm- strong try desperately to escape through the emergency exit, Bob Bell points to the sign declaring “THIS IS NOT AN EXIT.” And how about the fifty non-existent lockers that fifty people get as- signed to every year? Or the way that people smoke like chimneys directly beneath a sign that says: “NO SMOKING IN THIS AREA. There are several others including some so unusual that only Judge Wapner could find an answer to those. What do YOU remember? “Time to get out the eggs!” ““You kids give me ulcers on my ul-' cers!” “All of my student some back and thank me for being such a hard teach- er.” FRAU BARNES: “Doch, doch, doch!” Oh, you poor child!” “You like that? They like that.” “Isn't that wonderful? c2 og How Embarrassed Were You? “I was soooo embarrassed!” How many times have you strolled past someone telling another person a story and the end phrase was just that. Well, how embarrassing could it have been if they were laughing about it the next day? Well, that’s just the point. It’s always life-threatening when it happens but after a few days it gets a little humorous. Then, you burst out laughing if anyone even mentions the time you called your girlfriend and asked for another girl. Or the time you locked a kid in the car- while you were babysitting him! Or the time that... I was sitting next to Lisa Ross at the choir Christmas assembly and she thought it would be funny if she blew out Trent Blackley's candle. Well, these really big girls came up to us and threatened to beat us up. We’ve been avoiding them all year!!” -DARCI FOSTER This summer, a friend and I were crossing an intersection and we ran out of gas right in the middle of it! We walked to a gas station and when we got back to the car we realized we didn’t have a funnel. So we used a paper cup instead. Right in the middle of the road!” -SUSAN BATTIN I was at a summertime baseball game and the stands were packed. I walked up to the batter's box and then my foot got caught in my stirrup and I tripped and fell.” -BRAD COOPER. WHERE DID IT GO? 1. Big Mac. Large Fries, and A Coke: $2.51 2.

Thinking back on some of the things Mollie and I have shared, one of the funniest things that comes to mind was one night during the summer. Mollie and I had headed for Lake Thunderbird and we were going toward a certain dock. Mollie told me I needed to turn off onto so so road. I told her that I was on the right road, but she insisted I turn, so I did. Well, we got lost! Lost for about an hour! Taking several back roads, we finally got back on track and we ended up at our dock talking. We ended up jumping in the water with our clothes on. and having a long. wet. ride back to town.” _ . . -Cary Lamb ‘‘One night my friends Karen Strate. Theresa Todd. Shannon Lynch. Jim Schwartz and I decided to go out bis- cuiting. We'd done it before but noth- ing like this ever happened. Well, we were all throwing biscuits at any cars driving by. just laughin’ and messin’ around. All of a sudden one of 'em turns around and starts following us. Of course we don’t stop and say ''Hello.”! We keep driving and get to Jeannie Landsaw's drive. We park and turn off our lights. We were sure he'd drive on. He didn’t! So Jim being the only guy. gets out of the car and walks over to talk to the driver. We're all stunned at what's go- ing on. We find out the guy wants to talk to the driver. That's me. So what do I do! I jump in the back seat. We never told him who the driver was. So he just gave the whole car a little speech and left. It was not a good night for biscuit- ing!” -Amy Lafferandre One Friday night, after Audra Ko- zak. Kristan Gray. Jeannie Keeling and I had been driving around all night and had gone to Sonic at least ten times, we decided to eat at Taco Mayo. It was around eleven thirty and of course we all had a curfew of twelve. We were gonna just make a hit-and-run stop before going home. Anyway, before we ordered we went into the bathroom. Well, when we tried to leave the bathroom the door wouldn't open! The door was locked! We all about died! Then Jeannie says “Oh my Gosh!” I lost my finger nail!”. Then she started jumping up and down and it came out the bottom of her jeans! We all started cracking up and beating on the door. Finally Artie”, the man- ager came and unlocked the door for us. The funniest thing was trying to explain to our parents the reason we were late was because we were locked in the Taco Mayo bathroom looking for Jeannie’s fingernail.” -Carrie Neill WORKING ON HOMEWORK together Mollie Bates and Cary Lamb, share most of their time together just kidding around, making school days fun and weekends with little free time.

Over Christmas break, senior Toni Harmon hit the slopes of Colorado with the FCA group. Owning your own car was every stu- dent's dream. Unfortunately some had more money to dream with than others. Whether it be a brand new sports car or the old reliable '72 truck, the wheel you sat behind was a major part of your year. The cars most dreamed about, Trans Am’s and Z-28’s, could be found throughout the parking lot. Blockbuster movies such as Purple Rain'', Beverly Hills Cop , and Ghostbusters kept students busy on those occasionally-dull weekend nights. Following the success of the movie, soundtracks, videos, and t-shirts all cashed in. Junior Stacey Trosper is caught wearing a “Ghostbusters t-shirt, only one of the many novelties from the hit movie. Looking to the future, many students wore clothing displaying their universi- ty preference. College sweatshirts once again proved to be a never-ending fad. Feeling comfortable and confi- dent senior Carter Sanger kicks back in the library in his Vander- bilt University sweatshirt. Michael Jackson mania slowly crept into the woodwork, along with white gloves and Beat It leather jackets.

For the first time since the disco era, the year's biggest fad was a dance.

There are so many people it's like the State Fair, commented Joseph Rain- water. But it was much more than that. It was a way of doing things wheth- er you were watching a flag foot- ball game like Destiny Lehew and Monty Longman or being crowned this year's Jr. Miss like Kelly Eoff. It was how you did it that changed everything! Sure everyone was different and definitely didn't enjoy the same things. Jason Hadley was par- ticularly pleased with the Beat Moore” pep pally, just like not ev- eryone would enjoy diving into a pool in the middle of winter, but Michelle Hawley and Melanie Smith didn't mind. Even Kim Percival and Traci Crawford were able to change a hot Harold's sale into a time to catch up on the latest gossip. It wasn't what was done at Nor- man High that mattered-it was how it was done. The Result: A DIFFERENCE!

Be it a starter on the basball team, or a die-hard fan of soccer, the world of sports was a part of all our lives. Being cast in the shad- ows of the Oklahoma University players wasn't always an easy or glam- orous task, but it was one accepted with great chal- lenge and Tiger pride. Whether it was pulling weight for that important duel at 168, shaving your head with hopes of a bet- ter time in the 100 butter- fly, or just hurrying to make it in time to watch the opening kickoff of a playoff game, all season's were greeted with spirit and enthusiasm and end- ed with success.

In considering the facts, it was hard to ar- gue with this statement. The NHS team took third place at the state tourna- ment last year, just two strokes behind first place Bartlesville. And with only two prominent players graduating, that left the fol- lowing line-up: John Austin, Shawn and Brent Sullivan, Ron Coleman, and Mark McCurdy. The group placed second at the first three tourna- ments of the year, each time second to Edmond. In the fourth tournament the team took first, under scoring the second place team by twen- ty one strokes. Austin was medalist, scoring a 72-75 and Shawn Sullivan was second medalist with a 74- 74.

We stress a low-pressure pro- gram with an emphasis on fun. With twelve years of in- volvement under his belt, Robinson said he saw a defi- nite increase in student par- ticipation in the program. More teams signed up for flag football this year than in the past five, with a total of seventeen in competition. Intramural volleyball got a boost this year with a de- cline in varsity volleyball and thus extended access to the gym facilities. Free Throw competitions, a fairly recent addition, gained supporters with the switch to one lunch period, which is when the event was held. GOING FOR A GOAL Paulette Quiambo.

Arkansas, Jon Haley whisks around the comer. Haley had barely be- gun competing, but had racked up five trophies in the past five meets. Walking through the halls you probably passed an award winning riding expert, or a black belt kara- te champion, or maybe even a world champion, and you didn't even know it! To many students, being involved in their own per- sonal sport was very impor- tant. One member of this elite body was first-class gymnast Brad Cooper, whose talent was definitely not incon- spicuous. For many years his peers had been watch- ing him do flips in the halls, during pep assemblies, and even off the ramp in the Jr. Style Show. And why not? Brad, who had practiced two and a half hours a day, four days a week, for five years, had a right to show his stuff! I chose gymnastics be- cause not very many people do it, and it takes a lot of guts to get up there and do the things we do, said Brad. We're up there risk- ing our lives doing a lot of those crazy things. Another student who stood out in the crowd was black belt karate champion Jeremy Childs. Although in- juries often went along with this competitive sport, Jer- emy had been with it for four years, concluding that you learn from exper- “Right now I plan to do this for the rest of my life. —J.D.

How many conversations did you hear about firsbee golf? Probably not many, but it was on the rise. As a matter of fact, NHS pos- sessed the third place world frisbee thrower. J.D. Feex- ico, who began the sport al age twelve, definitely made a name for himself in the world of frisbee competi- tion. It's really exciting to go to meets like the one in Or- lando, Florida. Right now I plan to do this for the rest of my life, said J.D. Something a little closer to home was Dottie Blunck's hobby: riding and showing horses. For the fourth year Dottie continued to com- pete, and win, in jumping and riding dressage (a form of English riding) with her coach's quarter horse. She also began showing horses last year, and plans to con- tinue. Jumping is my favorite competition, and it's really exciting when you do well in a show, said Dottie.

Sound pret- ty impressive? Well, consid- ering it was the first two years they had a team, it was impressive! With the success in the past and with eleven of the seventeen previous squad members returning, the girls had many expectations to live up to. And they didn't disappoint anyone. At press time they had won one scrimmage and both of their first two games. One of the reasons for the teams success was the ex- perienced squad. It did give us a real advantage be- cause we had good starters and back-ups in most all the positions, said Jr. goalie Leslie Strategier. Another reason was the fact the team worked so well together. Janet Kuriger said, There is such a great feeling of comrauaderie; we're a team! Although soccer wasn't one of the most publicized sports, they worked just as. hard as anyone, from three- thirty to five-thirty five days a week, and had many loyal fans.

She helped make the Norman High team state-champions in the team s first two years of exis- tence. by always being at the top of the scorers. She also served as assistant captain her junior year and captain her senior year. Renee played inside forward as her main position but she also played goalie. Renee's an outstanding all- around athlete, said coach Sam Stone in the Tiger Sports Pro- gram. Although she was one of the most valuable players, she was a team player. When something goes right, we all have a feeling of accomplishment: everything is a team effort. Renee planned to go to col- lege at either Michigan or Johns Hopkins. Neither of these schools had a varsity team but she thought she would probably play for a private club.

The team had a lot to live up to. Being the shadow of such great teams, the pres- sure was on to do it again. The boys gained pre-season experience by organizing an indoor soccer team. They played in Oklaho- ma City in the newly built Indoor Soccer Arena on Sunday afternoons. They remained undefeated until their coach insisted they quit for fear of injury.

Two months ahead of this, a group of girls gathered together to create the Norman High Volleyball teams. There were three teams for the year: Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Sophomore. The coaches were Butch Peters and Anne Goff. The girls started training right away. Five days a week, two to four hours a day, the teams spiked, served, and swatted volley- balls with a vengeance. Three of those five days they ran 2.4 miles down Robinson. Many of the members commented that on a hot day, that 2.4 mile stretch felt more like twelve. Volleyball is harder than it looks, said sophomore Jackie Fisher as she paused during a training session. We really have to work hard at what we do to be the best. I played volleyball last year at West and they never pushed us like they do here. As in years past, some of the strongest opposition for Norman High came from the Mustang and Edmond volleyball teams. For the last few years, Norman came in third at State behind these teams. This was a fact, that Nor man did not willingly re veal. For the 1985 seasor Mustang and Edmon proved no different a tough competitors. Mustam first proved their worth b beating Norman in th semi-finals at a pre-seaso tournament.

The record was 5-6, but Coach Gordan Mercer stressed that the record was not indicative of the tal- ent of the team.” The com- petition from the juniors was tough, and one of the prob- lems that the team faced was most of the players were sophomores and all of the people who were State qualifiers in previous years had graduated. Another problem which kept the team from earning as many points as they could have was having to forfeit several matches be- cause they didn't have peo- ple who could wrestle at some weights. The team had some good points, though. They were good at takedowns and had some sophomores who were promising contenders. The sophomores won sec- ond place at the Mustang tournament. It has been said that the team could have been bet-| ter at getting up from the down position but that is ea-! sier said than done.

Ronny wrestled at 157 lbs. there, but brought his weight down to 141 lbs. for the Regional meet. He said he was on a strict diet at that time which consisted of about nothing . He took fourth place there, making his record eighteen wins and six losses. One must stay in shape to be a good wrestler, and Hopson achieved this by running, lifting weights, and practicing. “The hardest, but most important part of wrestling is the concentration and mental attitude it takes. It is easy to get burnt out on wrestling, he said. He apparently wasn't burnt out by the end of school, as he planned to continue wrestling in col- lege, probably somewhere in Oklahoma, and hoped to get a scholarship.

Head Coach Jackie Elder figured to face a massive re- building process after the Tigers graduated five start- ers-including all three for- wards.

Elder had been counting heavily on starting sopho- more Kristi Ahlstedt and ju- nior Brigitte Smith up front. But Ahlstedt moved to Cali- fornia and Smith, who saw limited varsity action and was NHS's best player in summer league, suffered cartilage damage in the preseason and underwent surgery. The burden had been dropped squarely on the shoulders of NHS' guards.

The season started against the Ada Cougars. Ada led through the most of the fourth quarter. When Ada faced the Tiger 13 with less than two minutes to go, even the most faithful fans were finding their cars. But the offense regained pos- session and quarterback Clint Littlejim led the way to an 80-yard drive in 1:04 to tie the game. In overtime, the Tigers scored on the fourth down. The defense held with Marty Smuin bat- ting down passes and the Tigers won, 21-14. The Tigers then went to Lawton to play the Wovler- ines. Both Cary Lamb and Marc Real rushed for over 100 yards as the Tigers led by 6 into the final quarter. But five plays later, Lawton scored to win 21-20. Midwest City came to Norman next. Ricardio Bickham returned a fumble for a TD, giving the Tigers a seven-point lead at halftime. However, with the help of NHS penalties, the Bombers scored the final TD for a 17- 14 win. The team then traveled to Putnam North, where the defense completely shut down the Panthers and cruised to an easy victory. The archrival Moore Lions then came to Norman for the Homecoming game. The Lions led 10-3 at the half, but the Tigers stormed out of the locker room for 14 points in the third quarter. The Lions kept attacking but Jimmy Ladd tackled Moore's QB on the Tiger 4 as time ran out. The Tigers won 17-10. One week later, U.S. Grant proved a less formi- dable opponent. Norman struggled early on, leading 14-7 in the third quarter, but led by Marc Real with 170 yards on 16 carries, they exploded for a 38-7 win. PC West then came to Norman to play for the Okie Conference Championship. Their defense held the state's leading rusher. The offense had a 14 point third quarter, and the defense added a spectacular goal- line stand as the Tigers claimed the championship 17-15. The Tigers went back to OKC to play John Marshall in a mud bowl. The Bears jumped to a 12-0 start, but Tigers fought back and Litt- lejim scored the final TD to open the district play with a 15-12 win. The Altus Bulldogs then came to Tiger territory.

The Tigers traveled to Ed- mond for the district cham- pionship against the Bull- dogs. Cary Lamb scored a school record of 4 TD's as the Tigers recorded a thrill- ing, triple overtime, 34-28, win, claiming their first dis- trict championship in 9 years. The Tigers ended the regular season ranked fifth in the state. Norman's worst enemy, Lawton Eisinhower, came to Norman to open the play- offs. With the aid of a 90- yard fumble return by Bill Durham and three recep- tions by TE John Swain, the Tigers ran up a 45-22 score. The Tigers then went to Midwest City. With a new defense and a new offen- sive blocking scheme the Tigers over powered the Bombers the entire game. Ladd sealed the game with his interception return, which led to another Tiger TD, as the Tigers won 21-13, the first time in 11 games. The Tigers, going for the western area championship, traveled to Moore to meet the Lions. The game was tied 14-14 through the fourth quarter, until the Lions rallied and kicked a field goal as time expired, to end the Tiger season at 10- 3. In terms of advancement, 1984 was the most success- ful season since 1961. Al- though there were several individuals, the '84 Tigers, more importantly, worked as a team. EXHAUSTED FROM THE . HEAT. Jon Ed Brown watches the offense perform during a summer scrimmage. We've Got Your s . . Hogs Offensive Linemen We had all heard their slogan— We work the har- dest, get the dirtiest, and get no glory.'', but we wer- en't sure we knew who — or what — they were. What they were was the starting offensive line, and they were The Hogs.” The man responsible for them was Coach Butch Peters, and he expected only the best. Coach Peters is the best coach I've had. He really knew how to work me,” said Senior Phillip Davis. Peters' standards may have been tough, but ad- ded to their desire to be a great football team, it was worth it. The three Hogs who were returning starters, Eddie Grant, Ron Ledgerwood, and Phillip Davis, provided leadership for the team not just on the field, but off as well. It was seldom that one of them was not seen yell- ing, Kill Moore” or flirting with a girl in the hallway, but in the end, the most im- portant thing to them was winning the game. And, that's the glory of it,” said Eddie Grant. To be a real Hog, you had to love it. And these six guys loved every one-on- one drill, Hog sprint (50 or more ten yards sprints), and push of the 800-pound sled it took to play on Friday nights.

It seemed as though she had been run- ning, since the beginning of time. Her ability seemed in- born, since her father ran at Oregon State and at one time held the world relay re- cord. As Merri said, I'm following in his footstep� . Merri did well in cross country and track, but the results of cross country were hardly thrilling for her. Cross country was really a disappointment. Track is really my sport, she said. And track was really the sport for the entire Brady family. Having her dad as a coach did have its advan- tages, but Merri said, Dad expects me to work harder and do things faster than the others. He has little lec- tures and he says I know them by heart. Merri was looking toward the future. She planned to run for a full scholarship, and after meeting Mary Decker at the Summer Olympics, Merri had hopos of compoting in the 1988 Games herself. I always have the Olym- pics in mind, she said, but I'll have to get my times way down. WITHIN STEPS ci the finish line, push to make it through- in firsi Shane Bumgarner gives it that last place.

The training was diffi- cult and lengthy: weight workouts every other day; speed drills twice a week; a few days were reserved for distance. But the training did pay off. After school started there were still a few weeks left to perfect times and pre- pare for the first meet. The girls got their chance at the Sallisaw meet, which pro- vided senior Laura McCloy with the chance to win her fourth straight victory in that meet AND make the course record. Soon it was time for the Tiger relays. Part of the ap- peal was the unusual atmo- sphere and the use of gloves instead of batons. Each school brought a glove and had a special way of passing it. But the fun times didn't end here. The Woodson meet was a favorite. Since it was held beside Interstate 40, many of the runners were harrassed by passers- by. It got really hard to hold back from making ob- scene gestures at the truck- ers that would drive by and honk”, said McCloy, teas- ingly. But State is serious busi- ness, and Coach Pat Len- ington had high expecta- tions for his runners. How- ever, the results were disap- pointing. Merri Brady, the favorite for a second place position placed 17th; the first place that was reserved for Laura went to another competitor, but she did cap- ture second.

But when he left, I jumped up and started yelling! It was so great!” Not knowing that she would get this far. Sherry had started playing fast-pitch softball in the sixth grade. She began pitch- ing in the summer before her sophomore year. Softball and pitching is a lot of hard work, but the team helped support me, she said. I also couldn't have done it without my dad. He taught me a lot about pitching. So one of Sherry's dreams had now come true. The sec- ond dream was to play in col- lege, and with her record the possibility looked great. Sherry had fanned 113 batters and won 16 of the last 19 outings, including 14 in a row. She had an 18-9 mark and 2.04 earned run average. “I hope to go further on with softball, she said.

Instead of a Student Council, the students resorted to using a set up such as that being used to govern the country. Student Congress consisted of a Senate and a House of Representatives just like the United States government. The system was changed to allow the students more freedom in choosing what happens in the school. Since this is the first year of Student Congress, things are a little slow, but next year, alter it gets going, it'll make all the difference. said junior Jenny Estes. Shelley Alderson said, lam in the Student Congress and 1 can't see how the student body has been in- volved yet, but I feel in the future when Student Congress gets more organized it will benefit the students. Student Congress has involved a lot of people and a lot of things are getting done. Trees were planted around the school and Tiger Mascott uniform was partially paid for by Student Congress. Along with the Elizabeth Burns fund raisers, another was also held for starv- ing people in other countries. New committees and sports were added to the extracurricular activities such as in- tramural volleyball, and flag football. Many people at NHS were pleased with Student Congress and hoped it would grow stronger. Lisa Madison thought that Student Congress worked out a lot better than Student Council. FRUSTRATED.

Alicia Ryan stud- ies for the PSAT test which was so vital to the college-bound senior. Twice a year high school students all over the country gathered at var- ious locations to rack their brains for three and a half hours ... all in the name of education. This was when the college boards, better known as the ACT and PSAT took place. Most major colleges and universities required a certain score on one or both of these tests for admit- tance. 'T wasn't sure where I wanted to go to school, so I took them both,” com- mented Cliff Huddleston. The tests covered a wide variety of questions, mainly in the areas of math and English. It made you realize how much you remembered from all your years in school, but some of the ques- tions were still just impossible,” said Terri Sinclair. The scores were used not only for admittance into school, but also to help you decide what major would be best for you. They played a part in what clubs you may have belonged to and even what dorm you lived in, if you chose a college with honors hous- ing. Well, we all knew how important the standard tests were.

Yes, that's right, go to college. Suddenly, we had a friend in the counselors' office to help aspiring college students on their way. The computer was very special to the seniors and upcoming juniors, because it helped them decide what would be the best college for them. All you had to do was feed in some information and out came a list of colleges best suited for you. But many people wondered why anyone would want more school. Wasn't 12 years enough? Cyndi Simmons thought college was important because” It's the only way to get a decent job. Manual la- bor isn't much fun.” But, the reasons weren't purely academic: I think college will be fun, with all the guys and turning 21, said Marcy Hobson. College is the place to go after high school, right?” was Scott Stice's reply. Lyndie Wilks wanted to go to better herself and benefit human- ity. As you see, there were many dif- ferent reasons people chose to at- tend college, but mostly they chose it because it is necessary in almost all professions and to get ahead” in the real world . At least, that's what we were told. SE fcks SWINGING FROM A TREE in front of the Fine Arts building. lay Hollenbeck demonstrates his portrayal of the senior theme.

Remember those days on the beach, gleefully plucking coco- nut from a shell? Remember the cool sway of the palm trees as they formed a fan from above? Well .... maybe not. But this was the feeling evoked by the senior '85 theme: MADE IN THE SHADE. The senior theme, as in years past, was created by students. Seniors Mike Knapp and Frank Ozmun, having re- cently been elected to Student Con- gress, took the duty upon themselves to create something appropriate. Little did they know it would be created by chance. ”We were on our way over to Bal- four one day, and listening to the Roll- ing Stones album Made in the Shade. said Mike. So I asked Frank, 'Every- one likes the Stones, right? Maybe there’s a song of theirs we can get a slogan from.’ ’’ Of all the slogans. Made in the Shade won out, and thus the '85 theme was born. The theme was then depicted on a senior T-shirt designed by Frank Oz- mun. These shirts sold fast. All of the money raised from the sale went to cer- tain senior activities, including senior dances and graduation night. A palm tree. A cool drink. The breezes of Shanghai. Perhaps not the accurate portrayal of NHS during the school year, but certainly one which was nice to dream about. Seniors did so in the year of 1985, and when they pulled their shoes off, snoozed under a tree and imagined thoughts of tropical sunsets, they were indeed: MADE IN THE SHADE.

Amy Zuck erman performs in a final show at Quartz Mountain, a summer arts camp located in Oklahoma. Amy Zuckerman was a normal Nor- man High senior. She groaned when the word 'math' was mentioned, ar- gued with her friends, and looked for- ward to graduation day. But there was one thing which set her apart from the pack, her dancing. Amy had been dancing since the age of eight. She had nine years of experience in ballet, three in jazz and had been working with modern dance since the 8th grade. During her senior year, she took seven hours of ballet and three hours of modern dance a week. Dance . . . especially modern dance, is the best way of self-expres- sion. said Amy. I'm free to put what- ever I’m feeling into it. Did all this practice affect her school work? A bit,” she admitted, but noth- ing drastic. I'm just a little tired when I come home from practice and need to write an essay. During the year, Amy joined the Bal- let Norman dance company. This group of dancers first performance was The Fire Bird. Amy had appeared in several other productions as well. After graduation, Amy planned to head east to a liberal arts college in Massachussets, where she'd work on a combined major of English and Dance. And after that? She didn't know. Most people assume I'll go straight into dance. Amy mused, but I don't know. She thought for a moment. Let me put it to you this way. If the opportu- nity does come up to dance in a profes- sional dance company .... I certainly wouldn't pass it up.

SUDDENLY • WE • WERE aught up in senate Was that a senator I just saw? But I’m at Norman High, how could it be? Based on the transformation of Student Council to Student Con- gress, one addition to the new lead- ing body was the Senator's position. The Senate included the presidents of all clubs, eight elected seniors, and eight elected juniors who also served as junior class officers. “Being a senator was really a lot of fun. We had to work hard, but it all seemed worthwhile when our meet- ings turned out good and we got a lot accomplished, like planning the Style Show, said junior Sally Bay- less. Senate meetings were held every Tuesday, in ways which compared to actual U.S. Senate meetings. In addition to these meetings, Senators attended a couple of Student Con- gress conventions; one in Stillwater and one in Edmond. My favorite thing about being a senator is going to the conventions where we meet lots of people and learn more about our jobs as sena- tors, said senior Kristy Armstrong. But being a senator wasn't all fun and play. In fact it was a lot of hard work, which showed through in their accomplishments like creating the senior class t-shirts, planning the senior class picnic, the junior Style Show, and the most unique of all- Desperado, the multi-media slide show viewed by the entire school during the second semester.

Well, maybe not, but it was the home of two exchange students. Ma- rina Jerger and Christina Claeson who transferred from their homes in Sweden. The changes were tremen- dous, but both girls seemed to adapt well. The first thing I noticed when I got here was how big the cars were. And the houses, they were beautiful. When I arrived at the home where I am now staying, I thought I was in a castle,” said Marina. Christina's first impressions was very different from Marina's. After traveling 32 hours to get here, the first thing I noticed was the heat. Then, after I'd been here a while, I began noticing a lot of differ- ences between my morals and the morals of the other students,” said Christina. Another thing which par- ticularly intrigued Christina was Thanksgiving. I think it's really great the way you celebrate the heritage of your country by going all out on that one day, she said. It's not how far away I am, it's just knowing I won't see my family and lriends for so long, and everything is so different. I'm always scared that I'm going to do something wrong, and people are always asking me strange questions like, ‘Do you have electric- ity? Are you a communist? and Are there polar bears in the streets where you come from?” replied Marina. Both girls knew that no matter what happened they would always have their ‘high school memories'.

Money was another problem that plagued the holidays. I have got to get a job, or there's no way 1 can get anyone anything, said senior George Griffis. But not homework, nor money, nor the lack of time could dampen the Christmas spirit. I love Christmas,” said senior Angie Smith. The day-old turkey barely had time enough to dry out before the Christ- mas holidays pushed into the scene. The garland bells and Happy Holi- days signs were hung and the Christ- mas music rang from every store's speakers. The festivities were just be- ginning. But with the holidays came much confusion.

SHOWING A LITTLE STANFORD STYLE at practice, Mike Bell takes the held dressed in sunglasses and California beachwear. Halftime at a local football game is usually a social event. Some fans stay to see the Tiger Band, but many others also wait in line at the concession stand. But one halftime was different. In an- ticipation of the unorthodox group known as the Stanford Cardinal March- ing Band, fans stayed seated. After the announcer's introduction, a mob of screaming maniacs charged the field. At first I thought they just didn't have it together and didn't want any- body to know about it, admitted Rob Kemmett. Their uniforms were like nothing Norman had ever seen before: Red blazers, loudly colored wide ties and straw has with feather bands. I thought they were silly but groovy! commented Kari Yanda. Their pro- gram theme was A Salute to Rectan- gular Household Appliances. They began with a television, then ran wildly around the field to form their next ar- rangement: a radio complete with the tuba section as a moving radio dial. Their last number was a toaster, featur- ing the top of the group as the toast and the saxophones as the handle. They changed the sax section total- ly. After we saw them, we knew what we had to become, said Bill McGon- nell. Later that evening, the group marched down Flood Street, waking sleepy residents and entertaining mid- night snackers. The next Monday, students were still laughing over Friday night's invasion, and members of the Tiger Band were left with a definite impression. THE. CARDINAL . LANDS.

Fellowship was held every Tuesday night at the home of Coach Dave Brown and his wife Marsha. Each week a different activity was planned for wor- ship and entertainment. College ath- letes from the University of Oklahoma often came to speak and tell what be- ing a Christian had done for them in their lives. Students from NHS also came forth and shared their testimonies with the group. Along with the serious- ness of worship, there was always some form of entertainment, whether it was a quick song from Jeff Lewis or Holly Hassinger or a friendly game of domin- oes, pool or spoons. Besides being en- tertained at the Brown household, the FCA group took their fun to the ski slopes in Wolf Creek, Colorado during Christmas break. Fellowship was considered to be a very important time by many. Senior Eddie Grant said, ”1 think FCA is a very important organization, although it's not really recognized by the schools, I think it played a major role in the closeness of most of the football team. We all worked really hard and gave each other encouragement which I think was very helpful in getting our team to the state playoffs. Whether or not FCA was a reason the football team made it to the play- offs, it was ever apparent that FCA was reaching a great number of NHS stu- dents. DURING AN FCA MEETING. Kir:.

The Mat Maids are: Lori Cheney. Lisa Johnson. Michon Herd, and | Dee Anne Herron. There have always been Cheer- leaders, Pom Pons, and Drill Teams in the past. And this year there was a new addition. The NHS-Wrestlers' Mat- Maids made their appearance. Mat-Maids!? Were these little old women who came to wax the mats after each meet? Did they sell cokes in the aisles? No, they did neither of those things. Mat-Maids,” explained wrestling coach, Gordon Mercer, are the girls who are down on the mat at every meet, supporting the wrestlers all the way to the end of each period. And according to wrestler Chad Gowens, the new support helped tre- mendously. When there's always someone down on the floor, yelling for you when you're just about to quit, said Chad, and when you hear them yell ‘Pin to win!', it makes you want to get up and go for more. The Mat-Maids were sponsored for the year by Mrs. Hopson, mother of senior Ron Hopson, a member of the wrestling team. Since such enthusiasm was shown towards the squad, they had already made plans to be back in the 1986 season.

Karen Murry EACH CLIQUE� HAD EM if ferent Strokes Not unlike the world, Norman High's student body was a mixture of almost everything: Radicals, Conservatives, Pure Okies, Eccentrics. Homebodies and people from afar. Together they mixed and mingled under the same roof for the sake of education, but everyone belonged to at least one clique . People are in groups for security. They need to belong. said Joseph Rainwater. Cliques ranged from the French Club to the group you went to lunch with, and all had their own certain style. Groups are formed by people who have things in common. There's a cer- tain type of people you'd rather hang around with. said Andy Hicks. With all these different groups, how did they manage to get along? Why didn’t some Willie Nelson fan set ablaze a stack of Culture Club records? Most people just ignored the- change from group to group. said Mi- chom Herd. Natan Meyer explained the benefit, It helped us get ready for the 'real world.' We learned to accept people.

The sponsors picked the best ones to vote on during convention days. On the second day of the con- vention, the General Assembly met to give final approval and re- cord resolutions passed by the smaller countries. This is made up of four committees: one from the U.S.. China. U.S.S.R. and a rotat- ing committee made up H the smaller delegations,” explained Chris Cozart. This was a rare op|x rtumty for students brought up under Ameri- can tradition to experiem e politics from a totally different angle,” said senior Greg Collins.

Brown: Defensive Coordinator Coach David Brown de- cided to move his family to Norman and enjoy life in the big city.” Two years ago Brown left Altus, where he had coached for sixteen years, seven which he spent as head coach. He joined the Tiger's football gang as second defensive backfield coach. Then, after his first year, he tackled the position of defensive coordinator. However, coaching wasn't his only interest at NHS; he also taught world history. These students are the best I've ever had, said Brown. They're attentive, bright, and they really put a lot of effort into their educa- tion.” Well, the feeling was mu- tual. Everyone likes Coach Brown; he really cares about the students and es- pecially about their fu- tures, said Sam Welcher. I know I'll never forget his philosophy of life: He who snoozes, loses! F DIVERSE-TALENTS-BROUGHT acuity flavor Drennan: Excellence In Aegis What did President Reagan do when he wasn't vacationing at his ranch or mingling with top foreign officials? Well, at least once, he was busy wel- coming Dr. David Drennan and other outstanding teachers to Washington. Drennan, mathematics in- structor and Aegis mentor, was awarded the Presidential Award of Excellence in the Teaching of Science or Math- ematics. This was the first year the award had been given, and Dr. Drennan was the first Okla- homan to receive the award. However. Drennan explained that. “The road to Washington wasn't an easy one. The pro- cess involved in applying for the award was a long and de- tailed procedure. Why did he believe he was chosen? Aegis was very important. The school district has been very supportive of this pro- gram and, therefore, the math program at NHS has been very successful, said Drennan. “I have Aegis, and 1 don't think there is anything else like it. Farnum: Demo Party Officer After teaching nine students in a one-room building for a year in Alamore, Texas and then returning to West Texas State University to preside as Assistant Dean of Women for two years. Mary Lou Farnum was ready for a change. I first got into teaching be- cause I thought it was pure and clean, and I wanted to stay away from the real world. said Farnum. I was wrong! I soon found out what a direct con- nection there is between poli- tics and teaching. Every aspect of my career depends on politi- cal influence, so I'm going to do everything possible to influ- ence decisions which affect my lob. Farnum now serves as Se- cretary Treasurer of the Cleveland County Democratic- Party. Her loyalty to this cause requires much dedication. This may include spending twenty hours or more a week handing out brochures, going door-to- door, recruiting volunteers, and sometimes setting yard signs at 3:30 in the morning. Why does she put so much effort into this? I realize, and I want every- one else to realize, that even though you're just one person, every individual can make a difference. said Farnum. The philosophy I live by is ex- pressed in a quote by Edmond Burke: All that’s necessary for evil to win the world is for enough good men to do noth- ing.

ADMINISTRATION NORMAN-BIGGER-THAN-LIFE n the blink of an eye What has 79,300 people, 17 public schools, 937 single-family houses, 81 churches, and 37,519 telephones? You guessed it, Norman, Oklahoma: The Heart of Mid-America. But two years from now, these stats may be obselete, because, if you haven't noticed Norman is growing fast. Look around. What was once an open field is now a grocery store. What used to be a movie theater has expand- ed into a complete shopping center. We are literally being enveloped in ex- pansion, production and multiple growth that could be, in the future, a direct cause of the ENTIRE CITY BE- ING ENGULFED IN........... Sorry, got a little carried away. We aren't growing that fast. Veterans of the Norman of old have seen the town spread out in all directions, even east- ward. Some say it's getting “too big!” However, outsiders still regard Nor- man as the place where OU is or “where the mental hospital is. If they could only see all the fabulous things Norman has to offer! For instance, Sooner Fashion Mall, mecca for fashion, cuisine, and social events. And not too away is the new Village Four Theater, the place where the elite gather and socialize over pop- corn and Ju-Ju-Bees. The latest addition to the West Side is the Sheraton Hotel, providing a gathering place for con- gressmen and Yuppies alike. The East Side can expect more strip centers, such as: Anatole and Alameda. But the new generation of Normanites suggest a few things: more places like non-alcoholic clubs for young people, dancing places, and more things to do in general. William D. Anderson.

Three weeks before the official start of school, the Tiger Marching Band paraded out onto the school parking lot and started to drill. Five days a week, four hours a day, they stomped across the lot with determination. Some thought they'd been draft- ed, others thought they were being slowly murdered, but in the end, it was worth it. They could march. With this new knowledge in hand, the band went on to perform at every football game held in Norman. They also marched several times up and down Main Street in various parades, including the school oriented Homecoming Pa- rade. But the band did more than march. They also spent a great deal of their time preparing for contests, the largest of which was the American Music Festival. This was held in Nashville during late April. There, they competed against groups from throughout the U.S., showing what they could do in comparison to other bands. BAND BAND PERCUSSION MEMBERS Front row}: Turin Ajibay.

The string section. “Right. Then the Symphonic Orchestra is the same as Full Orchestra. No, the Symphonic Or- chestra is the brass section. The brass section. Right. Than what is Full Or- chestra? Orchestra and Sym- phonic Orchestra com- bined, of course. WAITING FOR HIS CHANCE to play, junior slide trumbone play- er David Bruce explains a point to a fellow brass member. That's easy for you to say. Confused? It's not un- common. But when the brass and string sections joined together for the 1985 season they did create Full Orchestra. They created something else as well: beautiful music. The Full Orchestra start- ed out its year the same as any other musical group: with practice. They knew that if they wished to be the best, they would have to work the hardest. Their first concert was held in December. Appro- priately named the Winter Concert, it portrayed Full Orchestra as a whole and the strings on their own. The strings picked Mozart as their composer and played his Impressario Overture. The Full Orches- tra's selection was Handel's Concerto Grosso. Both works were cheered by the audience and the concert was declared a success. The next concert was not before an audience, but a panel of judges. The musi- cal group cometed against others of its kind in a state contest. They came away PARTICIPATING IN THE Win- ter Concert, junior clarinet player Chris Neal plays his part from Han- del’s Concerto Grosso. with two awards. The first, proclaimed them the Out- standing Orchestra of the Day. The second Sweep- stakes proclaimed them best in the state. When spring came, un- like Chorus and Band, the Full Orchestra did not make the trip to Nashville for the American Music Festival. Instead they had two more concert dates. They per- formed at the All-City Con- cert, which featured all the bands of Norman, and played yet again at the Spring Concert, an event which was held in May.

With this in mind, three re- lated clubs were set up. Model U.N., sponsored by Mr. Charles Mohr, was a group of kids who banned together to study the work- ings of the United Nations. During the year, they formed their own delega- tions and attended a mock U.N. conference. This con- ference, held in Norman, was the largest in the south- west. Trying to be as real to life as possible, it included bomb threats and assassina- tion attempts. Youth and Government, sponsored by Dr. Ruth Leoffler, was a group which created their own little bit of government in the form of a mock state legislature. Among their other activi- ties, they hosted guest speakers, including Repre- sentative Cal Hobson. Close-Up, sponsored by Mrs. Donna Hamilton, was the only one of the three which didn't set up a false government. Instead, they decided to get to the heart of real government. They went to Washington, D.C. To afford this trip, the Close-Up members tried to raise money in as many ways as possible. They worked at Captain D's, took inventory at Casual Corner and hosted a Rock'A'Thon, among other things. For one week in April, the Close-Up kids graced the city of Washington, D.C. Each morning at six. TO HELP earn money for her $789 trip. Melissa Mon- helps work on inventory at Casual Comer. they arose to days filled with workshops, seminars, and side trips to help further their understanding of the United States government. They visited the Pentagon, Capitol Hill and were al- lowed to ask any question of any person. Mrs. Hamilton remarked on the change in her stu- dents after the trip, “I've had almost every student in- volved in the program re- turn home and immediately register to vote. she said. 'They've found out they can make a difference. That makes me feel good. Together, these three clubs gave NHS kids a taste of being in charge. And al- though they weren't actual- ly ruling the world, at least they got in some practice. WITH THE MODEL U.N. confer ence near. Greg Collins gives the final details to U.N. members.

GOVERNMENT lways-a-first-time Every year weeks were spent preparing; every year they gave it all they had. They were always good enough to be nominated, but they never won. Not any more. This year at summer clinic the cheer- leaders won the Award Of Excellence! Shelly Pitt and Elizabeth Richardson were nominated for All-American Cheerleader. I thought clinic would be like every other year. We have come so close to winning, but this year we did, said Shelly. But there is more to cheerleading than leading cheers. Learning to develop friendships with eleven oth- er girls and to work as a squad was a goal they set for themselves. This year's squad was perfect in every way. We got along as well as we per- formed. This was a great way to spend my last year. said Chris Schlueter. This squad had a differ- ent emphasis in cheerlead- ing. Energy was put into do- ing things to support the athletes rather than perfect- ing the latest cheer. Cookie- baking and sign painting were weekly routines. We probably spent more time doing fun things to raise spirit than we did practicing. The funnest time was when we painted Ti- gers Take State on the mountain on 1-35 at two o'clock in the morning! said Elizabeth Richardson. For the first time, cheer- leading became a regular class, making extra practice a part of school work. It proved to be a great help! Getting up and going to school was easier knowing that first hour there would be eleven great friends there to exchange news and support me throughout the day, said Anne Mor- ain. The Award of Excellence, the molding of the squad, encouraging and support- ing the athletes and raising school spirit were all ingre- dients of a successful year. CLINIC IS HARD WORK and sweat in the summer sun. but there is time to goof off and have fun. Chris Schlueter laughs at a poor attempt to build a pyramid for the first time.

CHEERLEADERS et-up-and-dance In December the poms were honored by being asked to perform as OU poms at the Myriad for a basketball tournament. We got to wear the OU pom uniforms and kids asked for our autographs ' said Lori Minnix. After placing runner-up at fall clinic, the squad got to cheer at Lloyd Noble and perform at half-time forOU. My favorite thing was 'Surfin' Safari'. When we were making it up, we were just fooling around and we figured no one would laugh and we'd just make fools ourselves. One person told me it was the best routine we did all year! And we worked the least on it, said Karen Murry. I'll never forget when we all had our clothes on the bathroom floor while we were changing and a toilet overflowed. said VeLisa Robertson. What ever happened to those little girls in black leo- tards and a shoes? Well, twelve of them shed their pink tutus for orange min- skirts and pom pons. This was one thing the members of the pom squad had in common, experience in dancing. They began their year by capturing all superior rat- ings at summer clinic. They were awarded a sweep- stakes and home routine trophy and a spirit stick. Taylor Tubbs was one of five at camp to be chosen for the Celebrity Pom Award. The girls practiced throughout the summer to prepare for football season and pep-assemblies. When school started, practice was held dring the new first hour class. SURFIN’ SENIORS: Taylo Tubbs, Tiffany Jarmon. and Nicol Bell perform at the Mardis Gras t Surfin’ Safari.” It really helped because everyone was always there and we could make deci- sions on what we were go- ing to do at assemblies, said captain Sandy Sayre. To motivate the athletes, the girls baked them cook- ies and cupcakes. And be- fore one special game they decorated their houses. Yeah, it was really em- barrassing.

The eight member drill team and fourteen member flag corps added entertainment to the marching band. The Tigerettes began their second year at a sim- mer clinic in Talahquah where they captured a su- perior rating in march and dance. We put out our best ef- fort when we performed for evaluation ’ said Carene Francis. I enjoyed learning new routines and having classes about working to- gether and increasing school spirit ' After summer clinic the Tigerettes started their 6 a.m. workouts. At 7 they would practice with the band, marching in time and perfecting halftime field routines. It was hard to get up early in the summer to prac- tice, but we knew we only had a month to prepare for football season, said Tere- sa Qualls. When the idea for a drill team was proposed, the original plan was to gradu- ally increase the number of girls on the squad. Howev- er, due to the decrease in- stead of increase from last year, they were cancelled by the time basketball sea- son started. Another group that ad- ded to the halftime show was the flag corps. Director and choreographer Karen Meiller prepared the Mid- night Guard for home and out-of-town halftime perfor- mances. Practices were long and hot during the summer, but being on the Midnight Guard was a fun, indirect way of being involved with sports, said Veronica Proc- tor.

Thespians dealt with the- atre and gained points by acting in the plays or by helping in the production of them. “I have always been interested in theatre and Thespians helped me be- come very involved in it,” said senior Gwenth Price. NFL was divided into two areas: debate and competi- tive speech. They went on an overnight trip to Tulsa the weekend of January 25 and also hosted a competi- tion February 8-9. These were all just stepping stones to STATE! Competitive speech was so much fun, and it helped me feel more comfortable when I have to speak in front of groups, said Sr. Missy Smith.

THESPIANS AN EARLY BREAKFAST in the Sheraton helps get the first session started. Knstin Lee. Anne Moram, and Beth Mudson are the breakfast bunch. As Reagan finished his speech on nafion-wide tele- vision, the age-old ques- arose of where tomorrow's leaders will come from. Future Business Leaders of America is an national or- ganization that begins to prepare teens for their fu- ture as business leaders, or maybe even national lead- ers. The Fall Leadership Con- ference attended by the FBLA officers only marked the beginning of the year. ’’The conferences are really fun; you get to meet tons of people, said Shan- non Lynch. The officers at- tended meetings on how to become good leaders. This was a good start for the year, since officers came back to Norman with new ideas about becoming suc- cessful leaders. ’’FBLA is a totally self- supported group, said Joy Brock. Student directories were put together and sold again this year. FBLA par- ticipated at the Sooner Stampede Runathon and at each football game they served as parking lot atten- dants. ’’Raising money helped to support all the fun trips that were planned, ex- plained Anne Morain. The trip this summer was planned for Puerto Vallarte. FBLA also invited differ- ent people from all over the community to speak at the meetings. For example pro- prietor Bill Kidd spoke to the group on how to start a business. He explained the significance of setting goals. ’’Getting people in- volved and aware is what's important, expalined Beth Hudson. FBLA helped develop competent, agressive busi- ness leaders and helped to assist students in establish- ing occupational goals. It's a good preparation for future business, said Karen Strait. BREAKS were fun in the Gai leria. agreed Joy Brock. Beth Hudson. Stephen Durham. Kim McGovern, and Kristin Lee.

How would you like to have been graded on the toga you wore to school? Who were those toga- clad people in your English class? Chances are, they were part of the unique group that was helping to keep a dead language alive and well. I like Latin because it was the language of some of the greatest thinkers in the world, said Andrew Miller. Of course they had meet- ings like other clubs. Every month the members got to- gether and every week the officers met. A favorite topic at these meetings was When's the next party? They also spent time decid- ing things of a more serious nature such as how to pay for trips to conventions. One was the Oklahoma Ju- nior Classical League con- vention in Ardmore. The other was the National Ju- nior Classical League meet- ing in New Hampshire. Latin Spoken Here” was the theme of these meet- ings. They competed in contests and events to see how well they could bring the language alive. Isatin has been a learn- ing experience. It has taught me the meaning of the word parly!” said presi- dent Courtney Schoelen. And from across the hall came the sounds of another party in progress. Bier her, Bier her oder ich fallum, Jucke! The German Club theme song rang through the room during one of Frau Barnes' wild ’n' nutty classes. It was the only song anyone knew all the words to, mostly be- cause when translated, it meant beer here, beer here, before I collapse. Although no one really knew much about the Ger- man Club, there were al- ways a few members (and non-members) on hand to support any school activi- ties. Homecoming gave the club a chance to load up Billy Crook's pick-up with 40-odd people and bellow out Bier her until they dropped. Since the float didn't qualify for a prize, they retaliated by borrow- ing the French club's (lag. I loved doing the float! screamed Chris Holt, the club's secretary. We had the girls, the spirit, the 4- wheel drive, and the French flag! When Christmas rolled around, German Club sold chocolate Advent calen- dars. And, of course, who could forget Frau's lovely hooker costume for Mardi Gras? So what if they were not the most active club at NHS, they certainly were one of the most fun. And the lou- dest.

SPANISH CLUB PRESIDENT PAUL HEARD and chairperson Tara Murphy en- joy gourmet dishes at LaBaguette. onjour-a-vous With such varied activi- ties as a progressive dinner, viewing French plays and films, and the major produc- tion of Mardi Gras, French Club was occupied throughout the entire year. At the beginning of the school year, the club mem- bers provided the tradition- al, continental breakfast for the faculty. Students came as early as 7a.m. to prepare food, and they themselves had the chance to enjoy the breakfast along with the teachers. Another meal where club members prepared the dishes was the progressive dinner. Students signed up to bring foods from four courses and members wel- comed the club into their homes to dine. The annual Mardi Gras was the main event for French Club. Because of its importance, both members and sponsors put in much effort. Club members helped gather prizes donated by lo- cal businesses, decorated the cafeteria, and worked the booths the night of Mar- di Gras. Others, like the can-can girls, practiced for weeks to perfect routines and helped by performing in the Cabaret. French Club also took second place in the Home- coming parade float contest and received forty dollars. This money, plus that from other events, was used to fund additional club activi- ties.

The most prominent art work of the year was the mural which was displayed at Will Rog- ers World Airport. It was fun! explained Junior Keri Jones. It was good to do something cre- ative to bring out the spirit in Norman High students. Another contributor to ar- tistic output was the Writers' Guild. Members published the school anthology.

What goes on in that barn over there? It's the center of a very exclusive club at NHS. Yeah, think about it. A club that has produced sev- eral state and local awards and has dedicated, hard- working members. It's FFA-Future Farmers of America. It's a year- round club that traveled around the state and even to Chicago to show live- stock. But it's more than that. FFA started immediately alongside school with the Shawnee Central District Show. Several members placed in cattle and sheep. In fact, NHS had one of the best chapters in the county and state. They placed first in the state in barnkeeping, and Becky Ramsey was named state farmer last year. This year, the top awards were still pouring in. At the Norman Local Livestock Show, two members partici- pated in a tractor driving contest in which chapter president Steve Spor placed fourth and Paul Morris placed third. State proved to be the real accomplishment with all twelve entrants placing in the hog division. The list of other awards was again lengthy: four Grand Cham- pions, one Reserve Grand Champion, twelve Breed Champions, and eight Re- serve Breed Champions. Debbie Loeffelholz and Steve Mauldin were on the list to be considered for State Farmer. Kim Hyde placed thir- teenth out of fifty in hogs. That's pretty good, be- cause some animals aren’t even seen for more than three seconds.” said Spor. At the end of the year, members held an awards and appreciation banquet to honor outstanding mem- bers and their parents. But after the year of shows was over, FFA didn't just adjourn for the summer, they kept in touch. Summer meant once-a- month meetings for cook- outs, ice cream parties, and watermelon picnics. The funniest thing was the float trip.” said Kim Hyde. Thirty members and seven sponsors took a raft trip down the Illinois in July. So what goes on in that barn? Lots of things, but mostly a lot of hard work. Said Kim Hyde, During the show, it's like five hours of work a day. But I don't know what I'd do without it. FFA is all I do.” DISPLAYING HER PRIZE the Cleveland County Junior Live- stock Show Audience. Kim Hyde maintains control of her animal.

Perhaps for the thought of being a local star. I have a deep desire to make music. said Bobby Rueda, “It's what I do best.

Waking up in the early morning hours, retiring to bed late, long trav- els, and strung out rehearsals were the consequences of the chorus stu- dents, but ... The awards and standing ova- tions were worth it, said Chorus member Todd Hawkins. NHS Chorus students won many awards as well as entertained. They accomplished second place in Little Dixie at East Central University, and ten NHS all-staters were chosen from one hundred sixty Chorus stu- dents. We have worked hard to accom- plish what we have, said David Amann. On a more entertaining note. Chorus students performed the pro- duction of BYE-BYE BIRDIE in De- cember, keeping with the Christmas spirit with carols for Norman high students, spreading their Christmas joy at the R.O.T.C.

SHOW CHOIR ___pngress • In • Session This is the first year ever to utilize the new form of student government. It's a new bi- cameral legislature insuring more student body participation through increased represen- tation by homeroom ' said Student Congress President Greg Collins. Student Congress accomplished several achievements affecting not only the school but the community.'' said Collins'. Such activities were the donations for the Christmas Store through events as The Ugliest Grinch on Campus which brought in 300 dollars, and later 360 dollars for the Elizabeth Burns' Fund. Student Congress brought school spirit to a rise, with the new school masot that helped promote the athletic program, and also revived the festive Bonfire. The main purpose of Student Congress was to form a link from the students to the administration. It did just that.

STUDENT CONGRESS CO-EDITOR Shelly Alderson dis- covers selling copy on the new computer isn't always easy. igh-times-fly There were days when a staffer would bellow obsen- ties at the computer. And there were times when an editor would have just as soon chucked it all in and gone to Tahiti, rather than stay in the publications de- partment and finish paste- up. But this was to be ex- pected. Free time was often de- voted to setting print or paste-up. If not in the publi- cations department itself, staffers spent much of their time interviewing and gath- ering information for up- coming articles. These types of sacrifices were common for most school newspapers, but what Norman High Times had that others didn't was their own computer. The computer allowed staffers themselves to send copy to OU to be set in type. The computer helped us tremendously. It cut out the middle man and was more efficient than last year.” said editor Shelly Alderson. The computer was not the only change. The newspa- per went from the tradition- al format to a magazine style and began using newsprint which had never been done before. The paper looks a lot better and is more appeal- ing to the reader,” said Al- derson. In order to produce a quality paper, sacrifices had to be and were made by ev- eryone. And in the end these sacrifices were over- looked and -uh, most-en- joyed it. CHOOSING TYPE FACE is only one duty performed during paste- up by co-editor Marianne Allbrit- ton.

THE BATTLE GOES ON There was more to life than just going to school for the students in War Gamers. With guidance from Mr. Knight of NHS and Mr. Oglesbie from Central, students from the mid-highs and high school joined to- gether in NHS science rooms to do battle. They met every 2 to 6 weeks or “whenever they decided to said Todd Magee, for a Saturday filled with victo- ries and defeats. Their wars were centered around the War Between the States. The players ral- lied around their flags as guns sounded and bayonets gleamed. Though defeat was inevitable for one side, all enjoyed the clash of bat- tle.

A academic excellence, a subject once only worried about by teachers and ad- ministrators is now caught up in the minds of many NHS students. With an in- crease in the enrollment of science, math and comput- er courses, it was apparent that students realized the need for higher education. The school system also recognized the need for higher education by enforc- ing the elegibility rules and limiting DCA's to ten per class for the entire year. These rules limited the amount of time students were out of class or too busy to do homework because of late football practices, club meetings, etc. Student commitment and the concern of the school system helped Norman High to be one of the high- est ranked schools in the state. ACADE I DIVIDER 1 HARD AT WORK AND DEEP in thought. Josie Bigomla is getting all she can out of the Dental Lab class she chose to help her in her future career. Whether gearing up for a specific career or finding a way to work through college, Moore- Norman Vo-Tech students knew it was erious business For more than 200 Norman High stu- dents, Moore-Norman Vo-Tech was the place to be! They spent half their school day there in a wide variety of programs. But they all were gearing themselves for a specific kind of work after high-school- even if they planned to enroll in college right away. Bobby Stringer was a welding stu- dent. But when he lowered that weld- ing hood and began to practice in class, he saw it as a way to reach his goal of earning his way through col- lege. 1 plan to be a brain surgeon,” he said in jest. But don't be surprised if he works as a welder part-time for the next few years while he prepares for a career in law. I'll earn more per hour than I would shuffling fast food while I go to school, Stringer said. Kim Francis saw the Clerical- Secre- tarial program as a fast way to prepare for a good-paying job, and a lot less expensive than a business college. She was not willing to settle for any old of- fice job, but she planned to earn a good living with secretarial skills, in- cluding the latest technology. She was also representative of the students who had found that the Vo- Tech offered the opportunity to devel- op leadership skills. Kim was president of the Moore-Norman FBLA chapter. Students participated in clubs that promoted the development of leader- ship skills and sponsored competition on the district and state level. Job inter- viewing, writing a resume, giving talks or demonstrations- all of these were im- portant work skills that the students learned through their student organiza- tions. And they were an important part of the goal of Moore-Norman to help students be successful in their work lives. Acj @0CS AS AN AUTO BODY STUDENT.

I don't like to sit in one place. She didn't have to do that two days in a row in the CDE program, which helped her get out in the com- munity to work with people in the field that she planned to study at OU the following year — computer science. The atmosphere at the vo-tech school appealed to many students, such as Greg Roberts, who combined his electricity programs studies with lots of activities in VICA. He was district VICA president and last year won the state competition in the job interview category and went to the national meet- ing in Louisville, KY. Greg Noble, who finished the sec- ond year of Auto Mechanics, wanted to work in the automotive field, but some day he just may be in the design end of the field — if his plans for an electron- ics engineering degree are fulfilled. Every new car now is computer- ized. It is a logical combination for me, he said. Being at Moore-Norman half d. the day meant we did miss out on some things at the high school-like pep rallies and announcements and I wish we didn't have to miss those things, No- ble said. But he felt he got a lot in return. Hassle is what Bobbie Wilson got at Moore-Norman Vo-Tech, but hassle was part of the game for a female who chose to study in a decidedly male- dominated field like atuo-mechanics. Sure I got lots of hassle but I gave it right back. I can handle it because I have brothers. she said. Her interest in cars wasn't half-hearted. I started working on cars with my dad and brothers when I was eight years old. I am glad that I have the opportunity to study it while I'm in high-school.” TRYING TO LOOK anonymous behind their protective eyewear are Ronny Senn and Kevin Stroud, welding students. Whether it's acting, speaking a foreign language, or arguing until you 're blue in the face, it's not really what you say, it's ow you say it In this world there are so many ways to express yourself that it sometimes gets confusing. Here at the good old high school, there were a lot of choices as far as expression went. You could get your point across by acting it out, or you could structure your argument and debate it. And, if you really wanted to confuse people, you could say it in a different language! Whether giving a monologue, re- hearsing a scene, or straining through an improv, acting class called for spon- tineity, creative ingenutiy, and a lot of energy. We rehearsed scenes two weeks before the final, so their final actually was their scenes,” said acting teacher Olivia Cunningham. It was a lot of work, but it was fun, too.” Debate and competitive speech classes spent their time preparing for the various contests held all over the state. The work certainly paid off when the comp speech team took second place at the state one-acts competition with their version of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.” As Amy Lategola summized: We go to contests, watch other teams and then do impressions of them and ridicule them.” As colleges were upping their stan- dards and admissions requirements, more students enrolled in a year or more of a foreign language. In fact, two more sections of French and German had to be added to accomodate the overflow. Students loved the challenge of be- coming part of another culture and rev- eled in their new-found communica- tion. (They also had hopes of learning some new dirty words!) When German II student Jeff Thacker was asked why he enrolled in German, he could only reply, be- cause I love Frau.” So go ahead and pick your favorite way of expression, if you haven't al- ready. Chances are it'll get you no- ticed! if not ridiculed. DURING THE IN-SCHOOL PRODUCTION OF Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead .

HOW IT Whether saving history to be savored in years to come, or laboring to make the tallies come out right, journalism and accounting students spent hours writing down things ust for the record When anyone said records there was an instant mental picture of Sound Warehouse or American Top 40. But we rarely thought of the other meaning of the word, such as transcripts, news- papers, yearbooks, or accounts. In putting together a yearbook or newspaper students were actually re- cording the happenings and faces, and saving them so that in ten years every- one could remember what the year was like. People don't realize how much work putting together a yearbook is. There is a lot of lunch and late-night hours spent in the classroom, said Toni Harmon Trail editor. You often wonder why you took the class but when it comes out it is all worth it! Newspaper, like yearbook, was a time-consuming class. It also involved outside work to make the best paper possible. Shelly Alderson, Newspaper Editor said, Three years ago Tiger Tales was a laughing stock of not only Oklahoma but the entire region. Since then we have followed the trends of the national leading papers and the news formats. We are excited to see the improve- ments! I'm hoping that in three more years Norman High Times will be num- ber one. Accounting is a bust, because if you take, stressing a useful skill that was fun and fairly easy. There was only one major complaint: it was too easy to make little mistakes that could throw off your whole total. Accounting is a bust, because if you mess up once, you're history. said Frank Ozmun. The seniors spent extra time in the counselors' offices adding up credits and hoping they didn't come up short. For some it meant going to college on scholarships, or even being accepted. For others their records showed they would be staying on at Norman High. SENIORS SPEND 1 !ot of time with their coun-, selors in preparation for graduation. Mrs. Betty.

The dazzling show choir was at its best when they performed at Christmas in various loca- tions singing some golden oldies. We had to put a tremendous amount of class time and several morn- ings, but it was all worth it,” said Shari Jackson. The support was given by Mrs. Jonna Johnson, choir director. We couldn't have done it without the supervision of Mrs. Johnson,” said Kelly Furlong. Choir also put on a special perfor- mance with Robert Ray, the author of Gospel Mass. Working with Robert Ray was a chance to try out a different style of music than what we originally worked with,” said Cliff Huddleston. All students had a special interest. There were some of these students that were taught to perform all for show, but Ms. Jackie Faulkner, art director, taught her students to work for go rath- er than for show. Her students attended the Young Talent art show. The stu- dents also hosted their own art show that was open to the public in May. This gave everyone the chance to see each student's artwork. Another class that did it for go was the half-year course, interior design, taught by Ms. Jeanie Salmon. The stu- dents had various assignments to help them to prepare for the big project, which was their dream house. They had to design the floor plan to precise measurements, plan colors, furnishings and arrangements. Out in the agriculture shop another group was busy working for shower shows. The vo-ag mechanic students, taught by Mr. Tony Christian, worked on hayfeeders for the animals they showed. Guys weren't the only people who got in on the action, girls learned to weld too. We wanted to be different. It was a challenge to be like the guys”, said Twila Longman. Anyway you look at it, it was more than for show. c rgps CHOIR MEMBERS WARM up for their de Blackley.

ALL W Thinking ahead, students enrolled in classes that helped them to get ready for the move away from home. arely surviving Getting ready for the big move from high school to college made some stu- dent think that they might just barely survive all the changes soon to come. There were always those few on-the- ball students that thought ahead and enrolled in classes that helped them get ready for the move away from home. Whether or not you were going to col- lege, it was always helpful to have the knowledge that the independent living and marriage and family classes of- fered. Learning to cook, clean and sew was new news to most students and these classes taught them how to do it. In independent living we had to make cookies. It was a blast but the cookies were awful, said Mark Mason. College-bound students most defi- nitely needed some knowledge of how the typewriter worked unless they wanted to spend a small fortune having all their papers typed for them. Person- al typing, a semester course, helped students become familiar with the type- writer, manuscript and letter forms. I looked forward to typing every day, said senior Jim Ladd. It was my easiest class, I never had homework and I learned a lot. For those students who weren't quite as ambitious, the consumer math course helped students out on their own to learn how to manage money. Students were taught how to balance a checkbook, finance a loan and lease an apartment. Whatever your plans were for after high school, these classes helped stu- dents to survive, and in some cases barely survive , the move away from home.

BAREI jl?uijviVING After seeing all the changes at NHS, it was easy to tell that, contrary to the t.v. com- mercial, toilet paper wasn 7 the only thing ew and improved Ours is bigger! But ours is better! Sweeping around you there was a whirlwind of demands. In order to compete, constant changes were nec- essary. Everything had to be bigger and better, and in the race for success, we did not fall behind. New organiza- tions were started while old ones were improved. One improvement, brought about by federal grants, was shaping up the school. Our backdrop was stiff with age and paint and was not useable. Luckily, we received a grant and bought a new one, said Olivia Cunningham. With the school system's budget, every little bit helped. The development and improvement of some classes was a definite plus . Two new classes which filled quickly were photography and equine. Pho- tography taught everything from push- ing the button to pushing the film. I was really proud of the first roll of film that I took. But when I had it in the canister to be developed, Betsy Mc- Donald picked it up by the lid and, of course, dropped it. All the film fell out and was exposed to the light. I was ready to choke her! said Robert Wil- son. Equine, sometimes called horse pro- ductions, gave students the long-await- ed opportunity to learn about their horses. Learning about horse production and maintaining a profitable horse ranch made equine my most interest- ing and informing class, said Steve Mauldin. In addition to the in-class studies, most students enjoyed the field trips even more. It was my funnest class, because we got to participate in lots of outside ac- tivities. The best part was when Mr. Tony Christian showed us the basics of reproduction, said Boo Southard. Another change which improved the academic quality was the TMH pro- gram. Thanks to this program, handi- capped children were finally given the chance to participate in classes most took for granted, such as art. NHS conquered the hard times . Everything was rapidly changing, but for the better. DURING ‘KILLERS’ VISIT to the Vo-A building.

NEW A I0 ROVED After struggling through the hard classes for four years, most were glad to get away. But, of course, that was just cademically speaking Chemistry, aegis, and literature-un- mistakably everyone's favorites, right? Well actually they may not have been a barrel of laughs, but they were very helpful. The aegis classes, for example, looked very good on a transcript be- cause you couldn't just sign up for ae- gis, you applied for it, hoped, and prayed until the judgements were made. The selections were made ac- cording to academic quality, and the few who were chosen were definitely the creme de la creme . ‘T like being in aegis because it's innovative and we get a lot of opportu- nities that other classes don't, said MIXING SOLUTIONS in chemistry always seemed better to Vandana Dhall and Cindy Richison when they worked together. Cyndi Simmons. Also it challenges you and makes you think, instead of just doing busy work. Aegis was dif- ferent from other classes, but then again, every class seemed different in its own way. Another class of great importance, especially to college-bound students, was chemistry. The one thing I disliked about chemistry was having to memorize po- lyatomic ions, said Katherine Betts. Chemistry sometimes had an even stranger effect on some students. Chemistry caused me to rapidly ox- idate, said Andrew Miller. Although chemistry was a challenge for most, once it was over, few regret- ted taking the course. The third class, the most crucial of all, was literature. These classes, which were bewildering to many, decided if thirteen years of school would be all you needed to graduate. One student said, My lit. teacher is such an intel- lect! He probably goes home and plays ’name that short story' for entertain- ment. Although these classes didn't pro- mote the most enjoyable high-school memories, they gave important exper- ience to many students.

So what possessed some students to run home, change clothes, and head off to work?- The undying need for money. Whether trying to make a car pay- ment or taking a girl to dinner, students felt it was worth working for. Unfortunately, the job scene's not without faults. Trying to keep grades up was often times a problem. Having to go to work after school three days a week didn't help my grades a lot. I didn't have much time for homework, explained Sr. Tonya Meyer. Finding jobs was easier for some than other. Some students worked for their parents, while others pounded the pavement trying to find work. I'd love to work if someone would just hire me,” commented unemployed senior Cathy McNichols. Working wasn't really a barrel of fun, but pay checks sure were!

Fund raising was one of those terms which received mixed emo- tions. Sometimes you wish every- one would leave you alone so you could get to class, and other times you're practically begging them to buy a candy bar! said Ruta Vardys, who sold for Latin Club. Whether it was walking through the halls selling candy or trying to get businesses to sponsor your orga- nization, it was a lot of hard work, rewarded by results such as parties and dances. After convincing Burger King to sponsor them. Choir had a great Burger Bash , on the eve of Home- coming. The spirited Tiger fans were so pleased that another one was held shortly afterward. Besides the big events going on, there were the usual candy sales, a delight to the students having a chocolate-attack between fourth and fifth hour. The good thing about it is. I've always got a candy bar when I want one; the bad thing is that when it’s time to turn in the money, I usually owe about five dollars because of the convenience. said Jed Jones about selling candy bars. Ad sales were a major contribu- tion to the journalism department. Many businesses supported the school through advertising with ei- ther the newspaper or the yearbook, and sometimes even both. Al- though it rained all day, somehow it all seemed worthwhile, because we knew the harder we worked, the better our book would be. said Kel- ly Warren about selling ads for the yearbook. Fund raising was very important to the student's life in the communi- ty. It helped give some experience in the business world and get stu- dents more involved in their com- munity.

Not only did the stu- dents learn about politics, but if they had Government class with Mr. Charles Mohr they got extra credit in that course. “I had been doing some work for Carolyn Tompson 'cause she is such a neat person. I didn't realize I would be improving my govern- ment grade at the same time.” said Aaron McDonald. But they found that working on a campaign wasn't quite as glamorous as it seemed. The work that had to be done to make a successful cam- paign was just tedious things like stuffing envelopes, making tele- phone calls and passing out pam- plets. Working on a campaign is harder work than you would think. When I would call people to ask their point of view on Liquor By The Drink, I got to listen to all kinds of people telling me I was a sinner, hanging up on me, even ones who told me about their grandchildren! said Shannon Floyd. The students found that instead of simply reading and studying about politics, it was a lot more fun to be a part of them. ns MAKING TELEPHONE CALLS is one of the tedious jobs involved in a campaign.

SOONER FASHION MALL 1-35 and West Main, Norman MERGENCY, CALL MED POST ’ ip- Medical Post helped to provide experience for people who are in- terested in medicine and NHS stu- dents got involved. Med Post was an organization that was created and sponsored by Dr. Hal Belknap. The group members met weekly at the Norman Regional Hospital and listened to guest speak- ers talk to them about the field of medicine and how they became in- volved in it. Students observed surgeries, au- topsyes and learned how the emer- gency paramedics worked. They were taught first aid so they could work as stretcher crews at the OU football games and were on stand- by in the event of an emergency. Med Post is a great experience, you learn a lot from it and it helps you to make a decision about the different fields of medicine,'' said ju- nior Paul Behrman. Med Post was all work, although they did take trips as a group. Some of the places they visited were Eur- ope, the Virgin Islands, and ski re- sorts.

Each business, these being NBC Bank, Norman Asphalt, and the McMar markets, volunteered to sponsor one of the three teams which make up the Norman group. Sponsorship included providing uniforms, equipment, umpires, an- nouncers, concession stands, travel- ing arrangements, and field main- tenance crews. All together, the cost rose to over $25,000. In return, the teams named themselves after their sponsors. For example, the NBC Bank sponsored team is commonly referred to as the Bankers. Harold Heiple, a Norman lawyer involved with the program said that More kids are sent to college on baseball scholarships than anything else. Legion Baseball helps them ac- quire the skills enabling them to get those scholarships. The businesses helped for two reasons. First, for the free advertise- ment. People came to the games and became familiar with the busin- esses involved. Secondly, because Norman Legion Baseball is consid- ered a very good program. The bu- sinesses liked being connected with something that works well and aids young people. Caps were off to these three bu- sinesses. Their help with expenses and support of the teams was deeply appreciated. Legion Baseball would not have been what it was without them. Hopefully, Legion Baseball gave the businesses as much in re- turn. Dorothy’s Flowers Best in flowers, gifts and service 305 W.

AD -CHOLARSHIP DOLLARS How in the § $ am I going to pay for college?!!” This was the de- spairing cry of almost every senior at NHS, but counselors were soon to the rescue with brochures, pamphlets, and information on nearly one hundred scholarships. They ranged from academic to mili- tary programs and all had the under- stood criteria that only serious students need apply. But those serious students applied early to Century III, ROTC Programs, and OU-sponsored scholar- ships to insure fast results. A new, promising-to-be-popular scholarship emerged with the KATT Higher Education Payoff, sponsored by the Oklahoma City rock radio station. It involved a drawing with up to $1000 for college, school and yourself. Clubs within the school also pro- vided scholarships for their most de- serving members. French Club, with an enrollment of over 130 members, gave a $50 scholarship. Not much, you say? But it was enough for supplies or take-out pizza for that first night in the dorm. Scholarships and financial aid were not as scarce as some people may think. It used to be that financial aid was only given to students who could not go to school otherwise. But now, upper middle income students are eli- gible for aid. Grades, ACT, SAT, and leadership all count towards a scholar- ship, so you still gotta work for that money. INVESTIGATING A SCHOLARSHIP is tedious work, but Julie Trent manages to make it fun. As she speaks with a repre- sentative on College Night, DeeAnn Blank iuriously takes notes.

The Assisteens of Norman was a group of girls who worked together from the eighth to the twelfth grade. It's really neat because while you're working with a lot of the same girls for five years, every year we get to meet members who join, said Melissa Rose. The Assisteens were well-known for selling chances for Christmas trees at the annual Christmas Gala Times Two. They also sold balloons and corn dogs at the May Fair. The money that was raised was used to provide the needy with clothes. Each year the Assisteens took on a project which in the past three years was visiting the children at Phil Smal- ley's. “It really means a lot to those chil- dren when we go there and just talk with them. And we all know that what we do matters, and that makes it spe- cial.” said Tiffany Jarmon. While helping others, the Assisteens also helped themselves during monthly meetings which included a guest speaker providing for lessons on apply- ing make-up, aerobic exercising, and homemaking. 321-1818 DINNERTIME IS MADE more eleqant with the beautiful table that Tim and his sister Keven Calonkey have selected from the wide selection at Mister Robert.

While stu- dents were out romping around town, doing homework or on their way to work, teachers were busy try- ing to complete a quick change act. Oklahoma's not being at the top of the pay scale (37 out of 40), forced many teachers to take a second job. Although they didn't work by the light of the silvery moon, the scene seemed close to it. I don't like working to job, but with a wife and a child I don't see any other alterna- tive.” explained math teacher and grocery store employee Robert Kil- lian. Although community volunteers worked to free up extra money for the school system, the money was soaked up faster than hoped, leav- ing teachers with excellent equip- The First American Paint Maker Since 1922 Norman Paint Paper 105 East Main Norman, OK 73069 Phone: 329-1041 Excellent Hamburgers At Incredible Prices. 2110 W.

Mark McCurdy. In The Colophon Wondering what’s really in your hands yet? We’ve told you its the Trail, pardon me. the 1985 Trail. We've told you it’s a catch, that it is proof we caught you, that it’s more than just a yearbook, and last, but not least, that it’s an end to a beginning. A beginning to an end. But. we’ll level with you - all it is is an 8 x 11, 216 page book filled with eighty pound enamel paper, that we copied 9C0 times (actually Jcsten’s Yearbook Company copied it 900 times, for us). Stymie and Helvetica type were used. too. Since we used Stymie and Helvetica, we decided to throw in ten. thirty and sixty percent shading here and there • the result? The book in your hands. So what was all the hype about at the beginning, A yearbook's not just a yearbook and ail the other stuff? It’s nothing mere than what you make it. Doesn’t make sense does it? Okay, now we ll really level with you it's anything you want it to be. To us it meant time, effort, arguments, aggravation and pride, as well as a million memories. So here's the last catch of the day it's all what you want it to mean. Obviously, it means something or you wouldn’t have paid twenty five dollars ior it! Acknowledgment A special thanks to Louanne Trueblood who seemed to have learned patience1 is a virtue” and understood our tardiness, and to Josten’s Yearbook Company who also understood our late deadlines, and to the 198S Trail Staff for sticking with it-despite all the confusion. c2 s1i 4 THE FINAL fter three month lag of boredom and unsuit- able living conditions (trying to breath when you have three layers of clothes on) students were rejuvenated by the sunshine and new freshness in the air. But like always, there was a catch. Just when everyone was beginning to kick back and have fun, the haunting fact of finals and grades cov- ered the rays. I'm sure, I was just kickin' back, havin' a great time-ya know, cruisin' around and stuff and then my teacher calls my parents and tells them she's a little worried about my grades. It was such a bust.'' said Angie Smith. Unfortunately that wasn't the only cloudy thing. Believe it or not there was the dreaded prom to worry about. Right, believe it or not, the all alone on prom night fear attacked all. There may be a lot of girls, but how many would go with you and how many you'd take was totally different.” said Sr. Darin Fox. But the light of spring seemed to contain cour- age, for few were left dateless. The lag was put to an end and heads put to rest after the prom and finals were over. Even the juniors seemed to get an attack of senioritis! IT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN the prom, but Jr Tonya Nigh didn't seem to be missing any excite- ment. THERE WAS ALWAYS TIME to :• ! ,x and even it not. Jrs. Steve Bell. Richard Wall and Robbie Holbrook found a way. luckily, two-hour breaks during finals week helped them this time. 246 o now you've seen it all, what do ya think? Was it what you wanted? For that matter was the year what you wanted it to be? Did you ever get to go on that date you've been dreaming about forever? And was chemistry really as bad as everyone told you it would be? And come on, sure you say you hate pep rallies but won't you kind of miss them. Even if you didn't go, won't you miss skipping them? So maybe this book wasn't what it was cracked up to be. Maybe high school wasn't either. Then again, maybe you'll be surprised looking back. You may find out it was more. Now, thats . .. HARD TO BELIEVE anyone can have this much fun at Sooner Fashion Mall. Just goes to show you that it's easy to get caught up in just about anything when you're with your friends.
