Rossville High School RossviUe, Indiana 72: YEAR OF CHANGE TABLE OF CONTENTS FACULTY.....16 This year we chose as our theme “’72: Year of Change.” The new dress code is the most noticeable change around the school. As shown on the opposite page, the styles range from slacks—to maxis—to midis—to minis. The picture below shows one of the fads that is becoming a hit at R.H.S. STUDENTS..................34 ACTIVITIES................62 SPORTS 96 STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY A few of the responsibilities in- volved in a student’s life are driving, working, and voting. Voting is the biggest change to an eighteen year old. This year students were allowed to register at school. The really re- sponsible student used his right to vote in the primary and general election. YEAR OF CHANGE CAPTURES HONORS The class of 1972 included a prospective all-state farmer (J.B. Larson), a state contest speaker (Bill Ach- ors), and an all-star basketball player (Garry Kamstra). J.B. Larson was one of the final four contestants for the star state fanner award announced in June. Bill Achors placed third in discussion at the state speech contest. Bill accompanied by John Grove also attended a High School Government Seminar in Crawfordsville where they con- ferred with John Mvers, the representative from this dis- trict. Steve Egly received all of the top honors in Math and Science on Awards Day, May 11. At the same time Barbara McClure and Marty Kidd received the top Home Economics awards. •A Ping pong, whiz rings, straw-paper fights—you name it! There are lots of things to do besides eat in a lunch room, especially at Kossville. In fact, students go without meals to make sure they win the next two out of three. Forty-five cents is not bad for twenty-five minutes of entertainment. CAFETERIA SIDESHOWS CHANGES IN EQUIPMENT In 1971-72 we received new equip- ment for our use. Two of the larger purchases were in the elementary— the playground equipment and the new Hoffman Reader. 10 COURSES SWAPPED; ATMOSPHERE SWINGS The girls in Senior Home Ec and the boys in Industrial Arts swapped classes for nine weeks this year. Stu- dents were given an insight to crafts that might be useful to them in the future. The atmosphere around R.H.S. is constantly moving. Whether putting on a pep session or working on a pro- ject, students learn to work with oth- ers and try their best. 14 SOME ASPECTS NEVER CHANGE Music, Congested hallways. Daydreaming, School busses: are just a few of the activities around us that never seem to change. Though it might be rock and roll or the blues, music remains popular with the students. The faces may be different but there is always scurring in the hallways. Though the view out the window may change, students are still found gazing there. New busses, new drivers, or new stu- dents, but the ride to and from school remains the same. FACULTY “Change?” Tliis world is changing even’ day. And still the elders stop and say: “Boy, life's just not what it use to be.” But that life is past, can’t they see? That's just experience, from the past years. And maybe we’ll learn from their strife and their tears. But to cope with new problems, we’ve gotta change; The world’s the domain, and we are the range. If we look back, and live life in the past; Tliis is a sinking ship, and we’re tied to the mast. So on with the future, give us a boost Don’t hold us back, stuck to the roost AND The young will improve it, just wait and see We’ll make this world a great place to be. Not to insult, or cause elders pain ADMINISTRATION So please, don't take this poem in vain. We are your future, trying to strive To make this world better; to keep our’s alive. by Al Gates 16 Administra tion The three School Board members, one from each township in the school district, are elected for four year terms.

The vocations arc Business, Agriculture, Home Economics, and Industrial Arts. The business teach- ers are Mrs. Debov and Mrs. Flani- ngam. They are responsible for Typ- ing I II, General Business, Bookkeeping I 6c II, Shorthand and Office Practice. The Home Ec. teachers are Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Barton. Home Ec. is offered in grades 7-12. Mr. Henze teaches the third vocation, agriculture. Boys are eligible to take Ag. in grades 7-12. The hist vocation is shop. Mr. Miller teaches printing, woodworking, plas- tic working, metal working, and drafting. Ha! Ha! I had it in upside down. 22 Go it fixed yet Mark? Typing can be fun? Mr. Dale W. Henze Mrs. Man' Jane Flaningam 23 I think that's the problem. FINE ARTS Voices lifting in joyous harmony and symbols clashing in loud answer are sounds that can he heard in the Bossville Music Department. The de- partment has developed the inter- mediate, junior high and high school bands, and the high school chorus. Mr. Fred Faulk was welcomed sec- ond semester as the new hand direc- tor. The chorus is under the direc- tion of Mr. Albert Canine. Art can also provide a type of har- mony. Mrs. Katherine Tittle teaches students how to hlend various colors to give a picture both beauty and feeling. Mr. Albert Canine Mr. Fred Faulk SCREECH! SQl’EAK! HONK? 24 Huh!?!

Students learn the basic procedures of our government and economic systems by studying the state, country, and world. Through history, students are able to relate to their surroundings and gain an un- derstanding of how the world is run today. Ecnv, mccny, miney, moc. Pick a winner. (Hof Ho! Ho!) ..MIIKJI 25 SCIENCE Science, defined by Webster, is the “systematic knowledge of our physi- cal and material world.” With this knowledge man has learned newer and quicker methods to improve his surroundings. Students gain the training and knowledge needed to prepare them for the future. Because of the advances being made, it is im- perative that biology, chemistry, and physics be studied more generally. Sciences explain some common oe- curances in everyday life so that they seem technical. Mr. Michael Reynolds Mr. Tom Alward Mr. Garland (Mike) Jones Don't you know that flowers don’t grow in streams. I + I =2, Leonard. 26 Mr. Fermen Reed Mr. Stanley Poelstra Mr. James Eggleston MATHEMATICS Math is the language of science. It speaks in numbers, symbols, and signs in our lives each day. With the newly learned theorems, students are able to gain an understanding to problems that surround us. The knowledge gained from these courses is just one step toward the training in the field of mathematics. With each new finding in technology, math- ematics is improved. All of these principles provide greater gains in knowledge for students. Looking at it from another angle. It all adds up? 27 LANGUAGES: THE KEY TO COMMUNICATIONS Languages are probably the most important courses to be taught in schools. They are the basis for our ability to communicate with others. In order to do this we need to know how to speak, write, and read effec- tively. Spanish (taught by Mrs. Lar- son) and Latin (taught bv Mrs. Rod- key) are the only foreign languages taught at Rossville. Our English teachers are: Mr. Eiler, who teaches senior, junior, and eighth grade Eng- lish plus Speech, Mrs. Rodkcy, who teaches sophomores and eighth grade English besides Latin, Mrs. Thomas, who takes care of all General Eng- lish classes and Miss King, who teaches English to our freshman students. Spanish students learning more about Spain. 28 Mrs. Man Thomas. 29 ELEMENTARY The years students spend in grade school are the most important, be- cause they form the main basis for a child's entire education. Children learn discipline, sharing, and getting along with others. These years are packed with growing, learning, and experiencing which help mold a child's character.

School is stuffing your food in your milk carton When your teacher tells you to clean up your plate. It’s having your dad drill holes in popsicle sticks For your science fair project. It’s crying when your best friend moves away. School is the place you end up on Wednesday morning After a thirty minute ride on a big yellow taxi. School is having to give Valentines To people you don’t really think are “Sweet as sugar and twice as nice.” School is the first place you want to go On the last day before Christmas vacation And the last place you want to go On the first day after Christmas vacation. School is being five foot one And having a locker six foot two. It’s where you mentally Hy kites and roller skate When you have Spring Fever. School is feeling bold and brave When you soap the restroom mirrors. School is antagonizing the librarian. Harassing student teachers. And meditating in the hall upon the errors of vour way. School is lighting Bunsen burners And memorizing declension endings. School is meeting deadlines, meeting substitute teachers. And meeting the principal in his office at 2:15. School is finding out from experience that Seniors Have a lot of growing up to do. bv Connie Colb SENIORS The Seniors of 1972 have done niueh to perk up R.H.S. It seems that they always have fun. In their Fresh- man year, their major project was to order class sweaters. This was all the class was allowed to do that year. The Sophomore year was a little bus- ier. The class not only ordered class rings, but also revived the old tradi- tion of the Fall Festival. This first money making project was a huge success. The main project in the Jun- ior year was the magazine sales. The class broke the record of the pre- ceeding year by selling over $5,000. Thev also received money from run- ning the concessions stands at the basketball games. Much of the money the class had earned up to this point was used for the Jr.-Sr. Prom. For a change, the Prom was held at Morris Bryant’s with the af- ter-prom party at the Rose Lanes. The Senior year was the most busy and the most profitable of all. The class held monthly paper drives and several hake sales. In the spring, they had the annual fish fry and also a chicken fry. The annual tricycle race was also held in the spring. All of the money from these projects, was used for the class trip to New York. May 14 was the last time they svere to- gether as a unit. Coming back won’t be the same, because we will change. We will never forget our memories of R.H.S. MOriO: Knowledge comes, wisdom lingers. COLORS: Royal Blue and Cold. FLOWER: Daisy.

When reading and writing and ’rithmetic Were taught to the tune of the hickory stick.

But it is safer to say that we have forgotten a lot, and safest of all to say that although we have graduated from high school, we have a lot yet to learn. If you as adults will look back over the useful knowledge that you have, you will find that 90% of it was learned after graduation. Think about it for a minute. The useful things you know were not learned in high school. They were learned on the job, or after you were married and had a family. This is not a crackpot no- tion of mine. The view' has been advanced to men who have given a great deal of thought to the subject of education. It is a fact that most people acquire most of their learning outside of school walls. I am not saying that school is a waste of time. Far from it. We have learned one thing that is very, very important. We have learned to recognize and use our own individual talents. Our grades, our class rank, even whether or not there is actually a diploma in our folder, is not important. But it is very impor- tant that we have learned that one big lesson: How to Find and Use Your Talents. Everyone has a talent for something. It can be welding or writing, mathemat- ics of mechanics, basketball, or billiards, I don’t care. The talent itself is not im- portant, but it must be recognized and used to advantage. Steve Egly’s fantastic grades in Math won’t mean anything unless he follows them up with more studying. Mark Kuszmaul’s talent for art won’t earn him a dime unless he develops it and finds a market for it. Debbie Kelly’s talent for music would be wasted if she stopped playing the piano and forgot all she knew. The most talked about talent in this class is Garry Kamstra’s talent for basket- ball. But even that would be worthless if Garry didn’t play in college. I could go on like this for even' member of the class. It’s easy to find our talents, unfortunately it is also easy to waste them. Thousands of young have done it—by dropping out and turning on to cocaine, hashish, and heroin. It is here that school becomes important. During our school years we have found our talents and hopefully we have learned to develop them without tripping out and turning on. Yes we’ve learned a lot. Ask any Econ student to name the largest labor union in the United States, and he w ill tell you. Ask any Physics student how a slide rule works and he will show' you. But the important thing is that you can ask any Senior, and he will tell you what his talents are and what he plans to do with them after today. If any of us can’t recognize or use our talents, we have no one to blame but ourselves. Our parents, teachers, and friends have done all they can. The rest is up to us. GRADUATION Keith Mohler— Valedictorian. The final steps. Get it together. 66 72 STYLE Garry Kamstra-Salutatorian. Steve Egly—Class President. Faculty, Parents, and Friends, as salutatorian, J have the privilege of giving the welcoming address at the 1972 Rossville High School graduation exercise. As we sit here together for the last time as a Class, we give our deepest thanks to all of you who have made this one stepping stone in our lives come true. First, we would like to sincerely thank the members of this fine community, who have furnished us with our new school, our teachers, and the many other utensils we need in order to gain our high school education. There is no finer community in the world for interest and support, not only in our education but also in the many other extra curricular activities we have undertaken. Being a member of the basketball team I can assure you it is a great feeling to have this communit)’ backing us as you have done. Second, we would like to thank the many teachers who have given us their time, patience, and knowledge. They have spent much time teaching us not just facts about our studies, but facts we will need in order to get along successfully in life after graduation. It is mv hope, that in the future we can put these vari- ous lessons together so our teachers can be proud to say that we were once their pupils. Third, we would like to express our thanks to our sponsors, Mr. Ken Miller and Mr. Stan Poelstra, who, together with their wives have worked with us on our many projects throughout this year. They have spent much of the free” time which could have been spent relaxing, in helping us make these projects a success. From them we have learned how to work together as a group in striv- ing for a common goal. And last, but not least, we thank our parents, who have helped us in many ways to climb the ladder in order to reach the last step—graduation. Many times we take our parents for granted even though the)- have done so much for us. With their advice, we have found it easier to accept the many things in life that we feel could be changed, and to work at these things even though we do disagree. Many times they have helped us—as we got mentally tired with our lessons, as we needed transportation to school or a car for an important event. By doing these things they made school and life a little more interesting and meaningful. Without our parents many of our class projects would have been unsuccessful. Our mothers spent a lot of extra time in their kitchens—doing the baking for the bake sales, plus baking pies for the chicken supper and the fish fry. Our fathers sacrificed their trucks so that tee could get up early on Saturday mornings to collect papers. Without this kind of sacrifice from our parents we would not have succeeded in these projects. Now to everyone: Even though there are thousands upon thousands of words in the dictionary; what better two words can we use to express our deepest feel- ings than the two small words: THANK YOU!

They had speakers on such subjects as cake decorating and interior decorating- projects to enhance the future homes of the girls. As money making pro- jects the FHA girls sold all-purpose cook hooks especially written by home economics teachers; they held bake sales in front of Dewey’s new IGA; they sponsored the coat check at all the home ball games.

Over the July Fourth holiday the new President, Jerry Frey, at- tended the Leadership Conference in Washington, D.C. Advisor Mr. Henze and several seniors attended the National Convention. Freshmen got a real taste of the excitement of being initiated into FFA. During the school day they had to wear old farm duds, then after school they were taken blind-folded to Camp Chittick where they were led through woods, fields, and creeks. The senior boys sponsored the weiner roast that wrapped up the evening. Out of the girls who tried for FFA Sweetheart FFA’ers elected Sharon Barton. She acted as a secretary and represented the chapter in district competition. The Rossville Chapter was more suc- cessful than ever before in the Dis- trict Five FFA Contest.

Both have their clubs and are equally active in their specialized areas. The Spanish club, (pictured Mote) has a membership of 13. This sear the club saw quite a bit of ac- tion. They started out by selling sta- tioner)' for a money making project and also entered a booth in the Fall Festival. During the Christmas sea- son the)' put on a display of a Span- ish nativity scene which consisted of miniature toys. Then there was the night out to the Tijuana Taco where they enjoyed a Spanish meal. On April 13, the Spanish club attended a field day at Taylor University. Here they participated in contests by en- tering different kinds of pinatas, put- ting on skits, and impronitu readings. The public was invited to enjoy dif- ferent kinds of Spanish foods at the Spanish Banquet which was held on April 20. Fifty-one members made up the Latin club (pictured on opposite page). They were a busy group also. For a money making project the club sold refreshments at the Jr. High basketball games and they too entered a booth in the Fall Festival. The annual Latin initiation in which all first year Latin students are in- itiated into the club was held on Sep- tember 17. Pictured at the bottom of the opposite page are a few scenes from this event. “A Carousel of Can- didates Election “72”, Roman Style” was tlie theme of the Latin Banquet held on April 7. This followed the events of “72”, the year of elections. Supper was served for Latin club members and their guests. After the Roman feast members set back to en- joy the auctioning of the slaves. On April 22, the club took a trip to Crawfordsville to tour the Ben Hur Museum. (Sitting,) Connie Kintner; Sponsor, Mrs. Dixie I arson; Vice-President, Debby Chit tick.

Chorus is con- sidered a class for which students get more credit. Chorus also meets two days a week during activity period. Both Choruses sang for the school Christmas program. On February 17, 1972, a few of our students partici- pated in a Swing Choir at the Frank- fort Moose Lodge for the Chamber of Commerce. The Chorus also sang at the Business and Professional Men’s Luncheon on March 7, 1972. For the first time in Rossville’s mu- sic history, the County Music Festi- val was held here. Bands and Cho- ruses from Clinton Central, Clinton Prairie, and Rossville participated in the program. The whole music department sold candy for their money-making pro- jects of the year.

My mind has seen new horizons And my desires have richened with zest! I, too, want to fulfill my life. But change has altered my path A new road I will have to try; Glory is hard to defy As the dark nights change to a shiny sunrise And the leaves from green to red I’ll try to change from defeat to victory And from sadness to fame instead. SPORTS by Jeff Miller 1971 Schedule CROSS COUNTRY Cross Country meets don’t draw quite as large crowds as some Ros- sville sports, but the scores show that Rossville is a winner here, too, even though there isn’t as much publicity involved. The 1971 cross country team won all of their regular meets, placed first in the Hoosier Confer- ence, second in the Carroll in- vitational, and fourth out of nine- teen teams in the Delphi sectional. Another unusual aspect of this year’s varsity cross country team (below) was that it had no seniors on it; it was an all junior-sophomore effort. Breaking the record three times, winning a first every meet, taking a first in the Hoosier Conference and a second in the Delphi sectional, Dar- rell Boyd (left on opposite page) showed fantastic ability as a long-dis- tance runner. He finally left the standing record of 9.35 minutes for the two-mile course. Don Fhebus was another dependable winner for Rossville (right on opposite page). The B-team also had a good season. They placed second in the Carroll in- vitational, wiped out Lebanon 15 to 50, and heat Central Catholic 25 to 32. Several of the B-team boys helped out by running for varsity meets, too, when they were needed. It was a great season and deserves lots of praise, fellows!

F The Hornets, although they tried valiantly, lost their first sectional in four years. Despite the disappointment of the loss, the faculty, student hody, and fans are very proud of their Hornets. The Hornets made it into the fi- nal game with Frankfort by heating Carroll and Clinton Prarie. The loss to Frankfort ended a fifteen game win- ning streak, for the Hornets, in the Frankfort gym. Rossville 68 Carroll 58 Semi-Finals Rossville 74 Clinton Prairie 69 Final Game Rossville 63 Frankfort 67 On March 17, 1972 at 6:30 p.m.; friends and fans of the Rossville Hor- nets gathered at the Multi-purpose room for a carry-in supper in honor of the basketball team.

This included bad- minton, volley hall, basketball, and gymnastics. After a few meetings, they had tryouts for the volley hall varsity and B-teams. After practicing diligently, they played at the Junior High Gym, at Frankfort. Unfortuna- tely, both Rossville teams lost. Later in the year, however, Rossville retali- ated by winning both games in our own gym. The next GAA activity was the forming of a soft ball team. This con- sited of girls in grades 9-12. The girls practiced even' Tuesday night from 6 to 8 to prepare for their first game. Mrs. Young and Mrs. Graves helped Mrs. l irson coach the team.

Our theme of change even included our changing yearbook companies. So this has been a year for rebuild- ing and learning new ways. I want to express my grat- itude to Mr. Larry Glaze, our yearbook representative. His everlasting patience with us was greatly appreciated. My very special thanks goes to my staff. Not many people realize how much time and work is involved in creating a yearbook. It’s not an easy job. Sherrill, Bev, Sandy, and Mrs. Bowver, our advisor, have spent many hours of their free time to draw layouts, crop pictures, and meet deadlines. Without all of these people working behind me, this yearbook would not have been published. My gratitude can be fully expressed in two small words—Thank You! Mona 136
