All manner of fumes, and an atmosphere like steaming cof- fee, have burned into the win- dows a yellow hue. Only a young tourist, who has dreamt of the world, struggles for any length of time to see the New York countryside rushing past. Through the stained win- dows, the cows and the junk cars and the telephone poles look eerily alike as they whiz by. Indeed, from out of a yel- low train window, one part of the country looks very much like another. The same train rails, the same telephone wire, and the same concrete criss- cross the country from the Atlantic to the Pacific. t— Once the barnacled train pulls into Grand Central Sta- tion, a visitor ' s senses are overwhelmed by the city. Lunch time in Times Square is altogether different from coneys in Freimann Square. Strolling down Fifth Avenue differs manifestly from cruis- ing down South Calhoun. One is not more exalted than the other, it is exalting to experi- ence the richness of each. It is hoped people might be like the train which has yellowed with all the life it has carried, and the miles it has gone. City lights are like the trains of New York. City lights are not only a magnet which pulls one to a level of life always higher than the last, but they challenge people to sense the existence of lives, cultures, and ideas other than their own. We can remain forever ensconced in our own adequate, albeit pro- tected environment. Or one can journey beyond the walls and light out in search of new horizons. City lights are blink- ing in the distance, and they beckon to us. Let us answer them. PAGE OF LISTS The history of our times includes an accounting of our manners, morals, and lei- sure time. Hence, the miasma of lists on this page and the next. Teenagers spend an inordinate amount of money on records and movies. Peo- ple sprawl for hour after hour, in a wide eyed and drooling stupor, gazing at the flicker- ing images on a television set. Some read books. Some thumb sports pages eagerly for baseball news. There are countless ways to let an hour drift painlessly out of this life, and here listed are a few of the ports toward which our attentions repeatedly drifted. albums 1.

Pictures) As we glanced out over the earth this year, curious teen- agers looking for a better world beyond high school, we realized that age and experi- ence does not ensure stability. Events, emotions and well established theories fluctu- ated as much as gold prices. Events in the world seemed to follow only one law — Mur- phy ' s (anything that can go wrong will). Or rather, any- thing that wasn ' t suppose to happen did. Fifty-three Americans were grabbed as hostages from the American embassy in Iran though international law should have protected them. Russia invaded Afghanistan though many were sure they would never again attempt such a feat after the Cuba missile crisis. As a result, President Carter called for the U.S. to boycott the summer Olympic games, overriding the U.S. Olympic Committee ' s decision to attend. John Anderson withdrew from the Republican party race to head his own third party despite bleak examples and predictions that no third party candidate could or can ever win. Draft registration was approved though no one thought it would ever be dis- cussed again after Vietnam. Closer to home, eleven teenagers were trampled to death during The Who con- cert in Cincinnati despite con- troversy that general admis- sion seating was no better or worse than reserved seating. Still closer to home, Vernon Jordan, President of the National Urban League was seriously shot at the Mariott Hotel in Fort Wayne, contrary to reports that security was at its utmost. And, though the U.S. seemed to lean toward an almost isolationist feeling, Americans gave much needed relief to Cambodian and Cuban refugees. 10 1 Hooked For Life Much is made of experience — the school of hard knocks. There are endless cliches about experi- ence being the best teacher, the proof being in the pudding, about not telling but showing. But still and all there is something to be said for our formal education. It gives us what it ' s called, a form, a pattern — hooks to hang our experience on. We ' ll never remember everything — the names and dates, the difference between a restrictive and non- restrictive clause, how to factor a binomial, the periodic table, how you say I learned a great deal. auf deutsch, the difference between acrylic and oil as a medium of artistic expression, what exactly a debit is, which saw to use with the grain, how to make meringue, how to sing or dance or act. But we will have some histori- cal sense; our language will take some form; sheer quantity will make some sense; we will retain some skills and be better able to learn new ones; we will have a sense of the beautiful and be able to express ourselves creatively. We will be educated, or rather educable, because high school is only the beginning — hence com- mencement. But it is an end too. There is a light at the end of the seemingly endless tunnel of courses and years, and if you look closely, you can see it. It ' s in the eyes of our seniors. 11 I 12 Greater Than The Sum Of Its Parts We ' ve been a part of some- thing for so long. Individuality is now a part of a whole. To be an outsider is to lack purpose. Day to day we move from mass to mass; the only true driving force is that which undulates along the oceans of faces. In this way we see through windows — our windows. We see through the eyes of some- thing larger than ourselves, yet we are a part of it. The strong drag us along in their wakes. This is Wayne High School. It contains all the elations and pitfalls of high school exist- ence. It has the vitality of its people restlessly pacing its halls, waiting. It holds the potential for a new world, the potential of its anxious chil- dren. With a cadence thumping in our ears, we slide from room to room. All but oblivious to our surroundings, we gaze out the window in English; math is interesting during history. Chemical equations balance only during French. Again English. The transfor- mation of last year ' s founda- tion to this year ' s knowledge. We do fulfill the textbooks ' purposes as we crease their precious pages, a quarter a tear, finally deriving the mean- ing of the stanza, the direct object, the written word. Again Math. Again the transformation. Scrawling in a naked notebook. Can we cal- (Right to left) Mr Baker Richard Moore Claude KipnlsMime Rita Fish culate our beating hearts, our ashes to dust? Yes, we can. And we will. Mortality is cheaper than we think, it ' s only numbers that cost. Again Science. Once we have seen a pig ' s cerebellum, we achieve a kind of solace. Look for a soul, it ' s there in the formaldehyde. Not only has Science all the answers, but it has all the questions too. 13 SILENT I ' lCTIHttiS And still the cadence thumps, until it is interrupted by different drummers from different places. Claude Kip- nis ' s mime troupe, pausing on a national tour is fun. He puts our life on stage — our tests, our dates, a doll and a circus from our youth. All without words; the ones we don ' t know that are so often our cages, and the ones we know all too well, but which still fall short of escape. Shakespeare has always been tough, words again, and ballet a complete mystery, but groups from Civic Theatre, PIT, and the Ft. Wayne Ballet do their best to bridge the. gap. And it is interesting. A sculpture by Hector Garcia completes our immersion ir art. The perennial visit of loca celebrities from the airwave? brings Pepsi coupons and £ history of dance, but soon it ' s back to school and the end-: less need to fill time, to break the routine, to a combinec thumping of joy and dissatis faction. 14 1 They are cracking down on wandering the halls, and there is a Re-hab Lab for n-school suspensions — no more automatic three day vacations to rest up for a new assault. And the H- nall bathrooms are closed, :il further notice. Kinda nice. I never knew there were fountains there; just avoided the smelly place, aut where will the smoke 30? How will it get out 9 But rules are OK. They ' re 3asy — no need to think. nd sometimes they even work; things run smoothly, low along, during the jrowsy winter months. 15 How gently a failure can happen (Left to right) Claude Kipnis Mimes Peters Joe Andorfer, Mike Hudson Barry Minniefield A man once told us h childhood over a cup coffee.

When he lei her office he felt relieved. 16 14 The easiest thing in the vorld is to fail, especially if ' ou do it before any attempts it success are made. Easy ' es, but also a little tense, and n spring a young student ' s houghts turn to love and ebellion. A breaking of the ;asy pattern, a desire to be contrary; we rebel by with- jrawing, by encouraging dis- approval, and occasionally, )pen defiance. The Dispatch has done it again. Once more to horse. Another windmill; Don Quix- ote would be proud . . . and a little sad. It is Black Tuesday, and we are wearing black — some of us even know why. We are angry. We are confused about Val and Sal; so are they, and nobody ' s talking. Earlier in the year, an award was created in our name, but we were not consulted. The award was OK, but we were left out of the process. Now, our awards night has been foreshortened, and again, we are left out. The way we wanted it — but not now. Less is less. We are angry. We are wearing black. It would be so easy to crawl through life on hands and knees, forever dependent on circumstances To never get out of bed. Every morning when the alarm rings, and we know that 8:00 am begins another day of school, this cadence again thumps in our ears. But we find that if we don ' t get out of bed and go to school, we will lie awake and do nothing. As much as we scorn such bourgeois things as school, without them we would spend our lives in bed. And existence in bed is too ludicrous to imagine — too quiet, too colorless, too old. Drowning voices on the bus, the shrillness of the cafe- teria, the numbing whiteness of the walls. Blue eye shadow, blue lined paper, red-rimmed eyes, reddish fertilizer to melt the snow. Dirty windows, ciga- rette butts in toilets, slush, desk tops (plain or with the words). What touches us is life, and life, as Sonny Liston said before being knocked back into oblivion by Ali, is a funny thing. But to the main event. Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please. Here we have magic. A slight of hand, a passage of time we ' re months or years older, we ' re facing Mr. Davis, shaking his hand. He ' s pushing some- thing into our other hand. What ' s this 7 A certificate? A diploma. (Clockwise from above) Dennis Dun- can, Greg McLemore, Donald Loyd.

We had the best of educations — in fact, we went to school every day — ' ' I ' ve been to a day-school too, said Alice; you needn ' t be so proud as all that. With extras ' ? asked the Mock Turtle a little anxiously. Yes, said Alice, we learned French and music. And washing? said the Mock Turtle. Certainly not! said Alice indignantly. Ah! Then yours wasn ' t a really good school, said the Mock Turtle in a tone of great relief. Now at ours they had at the end of the bill, ' French, music, and washing — extra. ' You couldn ' t have wanted it much, said Alice, living at the bottom of the sea. I couldn ' t afford to learn it, said the Mock Turtle with a sigh. I only took the regular course. What was that? inquired Alice. Reeling and Writhing, of course, to begin with, the Mock Turtle replied: and then the different branches of Arithmetic — Ambition, Distraction, Uglification, and Derision. — from Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll 2 ' . The More Things Change... This was the year of the ' cool change ' at Wayne. Little things here and there, some of which only changed the look of the school, others that affected us on a day to day basis, and others that could change the academic look of our school and schedules. The ladies in the cafeteria let loose of their tongs, spatu- las, and ladles, and let us do it ourselves. What had been a limited experiment a year before, now became standard operating procedure. Now some people can han- dle choice, and some can ' t. Some grab their hamburger patty or piece of cake or scoop of fruit cocktail and get on with lunch. Others how- ever, gourmets after a fashion, take more time. Sometimes endless amounts of time; pick- ing the biggest, juiciest patty; operating on the cake pan, like a child surgeon who doesn ' t like crust, for that large piece with all the frosting right in the middle of the pan; casting the ladle time and again like a fisherman in search of the perfect scoop, all cherries. Wayne ' s happy homemak- ers more than cope with all this and endless cries for more corn. A salute to the most pleasant people at Wayne. Then there was all the con- struction The melodious sounds of jackhammers and sledge hammers made classes so much fun, and just when you thought it was safe to go back into the halls . . the walls would shake and another chasm would appear in the walls of Wayne. A reading lab was gutted and changed into a television studio. A sign of the times, as= reading becomes obsolete, and McLuhan beams. The studio will be equipped with all manner of video tape machines and cameras fofl use by budding broadcast journalists, and anyone else who can figure out how to use the stuff. . I Wayne was made safe and accessible for the handicap- ped this year New railings appeared on the stairs, and 9 course, the elevator. As far as we know the doors have neveii opened, but only three Wayne students have yet to push the button, just in case. Contrary to popular opin- ion, the handicapped signs on the faculty rest room doors are not comments on teacher quality, but another indication that Wayne and FWCS are taking the problems of the handicapped seriously. As soon as school was out even more workers poured into Wayne to add a science lab to the upstairs D-hall and put partitions in the study hall rooms. Possibly an effort to divide and conquer? Last and least, that wonderfully smelly blue carpet that made seeing one ' s counselor such a joy this past year, has also been added to the A-hall rooms. Kinda makes ya want to sign up for a study hall, doesn ' t it. All of this construction put a strain on Mr. Dumford ' s cadre of white tornadoes, but they handled the problems with ease and Wayne remained one of the cleanest, most well lighted places in Ft. Wayne. The big news on the aca- demic front this year con- sisted of the change in stu- dent scheduling. Not the com- puter, that has been with us for a long time, but the group- ing of courses of study into categories: college prepara- tory, business, general, and practical arts. Early in the second semes- ter, the counselors toured the building explaining time and again the new procedure to those who were about to choose their poison. The actual choices that a student makes are little changed; the requirements for graduation are set by state law. But the new program will give stu- dents a more definite structure in which to work. To go to college, you don ' t have to take college prep, but it will be a lot easier on you once you get there if you do. You don ' t have to take busi- ness if you want to make your financial mark on the world, but the courses are designed to give you the best prepara- tion. If you don ' t take the busi- ness now, you may get the business later And of course you need not take practical arts to be practical. The biggest drawback to this program is that it severely limits the amount of electives available to some students, especially those in college prep. It is not impossible for (Clockwise from right above) Kampschmidt, Lipp, Reilly; Hamm, Perkins, Houser, Reche, Davis, Lei- man, Septer; Milholland, Runow, DeYoung, Davis; Streeter, Beerman, Hamm, Reichert, Reilly; Roberts, Mas- terson, Baker, Trott, Sawyer, DeYoung, Merkler; Seele, Hirshey. Johnson the student interested in art, dra ma, publications, music, shop, or speech to work these courses into his schedule, but it is not easy either.

Many of those that had just joined the Wayne faculty would have to leave again, along with some who had been here longer. Rosalie Guillot, the grande dame of the French program, retired after a long and illustri- ous career in the Ft. Wayne Community Schools. Bill Mad- den, Chairman of the English department, left for Northrop, handing the reins over to Dave Didier. Mr. Madden, the only,] English chairman Wayne has.-; known is largely responsible for our complicated and intri- cate combination tradition phase elective English pro- gram. At the annual faculty! breakfast on the last day of school, the English depart- ment announced that the sen- ior award for excellence in English would be named foi the departing Madden. 20 en The English department also lost Geraldine Mansbach and Pat Reilly, the latter hav- ing only been at Wayne for a year. Madeline Garvin, a new teacher at Wayne who came from South Side, will remain, and some of the already men- tioned losses will be offset by the return of Nancy Mack after a year ' s absence to teach Latin and English. Also retiring was Bill Twite- hell from the physical educa- tion department after only one year at Wayne, but many more at Geyer. Wayne ' s per- manent substitute, Les Rob- erts, is also leaving after only one year. The fine arts will lose Connie Walburn and the performing arts will lose its part-time instrumental music teacher, Mr. Hickman. The popular bowling coach, Pat McKinney, will be lost to the social studies department as will Bernard Booker and Marilyn Haupert to the mathe- matics department. Barbara Gould wili no longer spin and weave in the upper B-hall, and Carl Mosser will leave Wayne ' s science department for Northside, not to mention the ever-popular Ed Hershey. Some of these teachers may return, though the out- look is uncertain, much as it is for the entire Ft. Wayne Com- munity Schools with the departure of its long-time superintendent Lester Grile. Class sizes will undoubtedly be larger, but may be offset by even fewer students in the coming years. (Right to left from above right) Marsh, Detwiler, Coleman, Ewing; Taylor.

' It was commencement night, June 2, 1980, and we, as seniors, had one last seri- ous decision to make before we formally left Wayne High School — should we throw our caps? It was typical of the class of 1 980 to consider it at all, despite the various lec- tures and letters that told us our caps were to remain on our heads at all times. Still, as good rebellious seniors, some caps flew. But through the years our rebellions went far beyond the regular fun, senior prank. We had a purpose, and we had unity. From the time we put our foot in the door of Wayne High School as its first senior high freshmen, we worked to prove that we were to be treated as high school equals. From the fight for a soccer team, through the reorganiza- tion of Student Council, to the recognition of Black Tuesday, we held together, recognizing our talent and our ability to move, grow, and change within our education. As a group, we learned to observe, judge, think, and act for our- seK Bu. s graduates, where do we go I t here? Our parents, relatives nd family friends are bursting with pride over our schooling achievement. Yet, we are baffled more and more each day as to the pre- dicament we now face. Where do we go? For almost thirteen years we have ridden a yellow bus to school, spent hours learning, ridden a yellow bus home, done homework, spent what time was left with friends from school, hailed summer vacation for three months, and then, started the whole cycle over again in Septem- ber. After all of this time of supposedly learning how to live and work once we got past high school, it is still puzzling as to what we actu- ally did learn. The answer lies not in what we learned, but in how we learned. A school is a society. A small society with leaders and followers, rules and disci- pline, friends and acquain- tances. We could not just attend school all those years and just ignore every rule, teacher, or classmate. We had to learn with and around them. We had to learn how to learn. In doing so, we often played with our toy society and experimented with it. And our class did its share of expe- rimenting. 30 SENIORS START YOUR ENGINES We are now too big for that society. We have outgrown it, and we are ready to move on. What once gave us a feeling of security, now gives us one of claustrophobia. We now have a larger society in which to learn to live, and though apprehensive, we have (Left) Exchange students Johan Slatis land Renate Hellmiss confer before ,the ceremony.

If we hold on to that spirit of rebel- lion, that spirit that makes us question, ponder, experiment, and change, we can always be confident that we are pointed in the right direction, that we are accomplishing something. And, as 1980 graduates of Wayne High School, we are doing it our own way — as we always have. 7 31 Renate Hellmiss ' s feet The Festival Days Parade. (I to r) Mr. Perkins.

As Will Durant defined it, education is the transmission ot culture — the passing down of a people ' s heritage from one generation to the next. If that is true, very little education goes on in the classroom. When our sensibility is refined, or our horizons expanded, you can find us tak- ing part in our culture and heritage, be that in Chicago ' s Water Tower or in our own auditorium. We cannot live in this world until we experience it, and that means escaping from time to time this closed environment of cinder blocks and aluminum. Education is not the confirma- tion of prejudice; it is assimilating our world and articulating a transcendence, it is a trip down the boulevards, and a story of the drive. 73 (top to bottom) Lett Row: Greg Stephens and Regina Schultz, Rod Stnngfellow, Sue Andorfer; Middle Row: John Andrew, Matt Werling, Kevin Martin, Right Row: John Griggs, Jay Borkgoldski, Dennis Duncan, Opposite Page: Barb Andorfer To a very few pub was a class in whicfi work was done. To some it was a haven of ref- uge from guidance counse- lors combing fhe halls looking for students who should be in rehab, lab. To others it was a place to pick up a newspaper and to get out as quickly as possible. Still others came there before school, between classes, during lunch and 1A LLl VLU 1 1 L CU Lt U L after school. This breed of person is highly refined, all characteristics of his fellow students have all been removed. Can ' t you hear ' ? In the corner he ' s the one rambling on about some- thing superficially deep and symbolic. The rebel without a cause? That ' s here. She ' s the one with the l-don ' t- give-a-damn attitude That ' s pub. Or rather, it used to be. The Dispatch is Wayne ' s own newspaper, set on informing and creat- ing controversy, they accomplished both. Editor- in-chief Sue Andorfer could be seen at any given moment arguing with News editor John Andrew — usually about what should be printed and what should not. The two forces after having locked horns would reach a common ground of agreement. Barb Andorfer gave strong support to the news section along with Dawn Allison, Doug Bloom, Marsha Brewer, Andy Buroker, Terri Fox, Pat Mundy, Cornell Graham, Cassil Blackburn and Nata- lie Ellis. Jay Goldner and Ron Borkowski this year made the sports section more than just a bunch of pic- tures at the end of the paper. They were more than just the everyday token jocks Jocks by nature wear clogs and shorts, Jay and Ron wore shorts but they wouldn ' t be caught dead in clogs. Now that ' s the difference that makes all the difference in the pub. Backing Jay and Ron in the sports section were Loren Bunnell, Greg Borkowski, Kendrick Boyd, Tracey Guy, and Scott Cramer. If it is thought that the editors carry all the load and talent, think again. Car- toonist Joe Andorfer accomplished what many editorial cartoonists always hope to accomplish: create a stir. His cartoons spear- headed the Student Coun- cil disputes which could have been called destruc- tive. But no matter what it is called it got the student body active. The eye behind the cam- era, and sometimes not behind the camera, belongs to the photogs. The photogs are a different strain of pubbers. The pho- togs breed like rabbits, every other person in pub is a pho- tog, or rather claims to be. Photography is a great way to meet new friends, as is evi- dent by the number of pic- tures of friends lying around the pub room. Photogs included Head Photog. John Griggs, Assoc. Kevin Martin, and staff members Greg Bun- sold, Dennis Duncan, Daniel Edwards, Wayne Evans, David Hines, and Dean Ross The Sentry is that book that tells what happened the year before and arrives around Hal- loween.

Lonnie Holston Norma . Karen Garrett Synopsis A thirty-two year old retarded man named Charlie Gordon is chosen for a new operation that vastly increases intelligence. The operation is overseen by Dr. Strauss and Professor Nemur, who rely on the progress of a mouse, Algernon, as physical evi- dence of the operation ' s suc- cess. Charlie is referred to the doctors by his teacher, Alice. After interviewing Charlie, Dr. Strauss, Nemur, and Burt — a lab assistant — debate Char- lie ' s fitness as a subject. After some prodding, Nemur reluc- tantly approves of Charlie for the operation. After the operation, Char- lie ' s progress is slow, but soon his IQ escalates at a dizzying pace, and soon he outgrows even his teacher, Alice Charlie has discovered a whole new world, including an awareness of his sexuality, to which Alice appeals strongly. Charlie is repeatedly thwarted in his attempts to show affec- tion for Alice, however, as he is haunted by the ghost of his old self. As Charlie reaches the peak of his powers, Strauss and Nemur release news of their achievement to the world. Feeling that the doctors have reduced him to grist for their success mills, Charlie flees with Algernon, on whom the processes have begun to rev- erse. Algernon is fast regress- ing to his former level of intelli- gence, and is dying. Charlie realizes that his days are also numbered. Review Regina Schultz, The Dis- patch With time the rough edges will disappear, and with fine talent and increasing con- fidence as a director, Mr. Per- kins is in the process of build- ing a solid drama program. Eventually Charlie and Algernon come out of hiding to complete the experiment. Charlie churns out a report on the entire experiment, com- pleting it just before his intelli- gence fades. He goes home for an unsettling reunion with his family, and when he returns, Algernon is dead. Charlie and Alice consum- mate their love in the brief time left, but soon Alice leaves the now totally debilitated Charlie. As the play ends, he places flowers on t k .e grave of Alger- non; he has been deserted by his friends and has only his dignity left. The curtain falls. (Clockwise from top) Charlie (Randy Correll) contemplates the gathering storm; Joe Andorfer readies his por- trayal of the affable Dr Strauss, Char- lie records his thoughts during recovery; Charlie and Alice (Christine Sanders) struggle with their mutual affections; In the booth, technical crew members Greg Simon and Steve Calder ready for a performance. 76 — A ' nVAVi KS V v v vw a v x? x ; ' ' Z SS$ ' ■%• , ■7Q.

Mr Stookey, who will move to Elmhurst next year, stands before the trophy case of his last, most success- ful team with Andy Buroker and Joe Andorfer; Carol Lowe and Sherry Boatnght take a break at East Noble, Natalie Ellis searches for her stand- ing Todd Slater is a jolly fellow. On one of the coldest, longest Saturdays, at one of the most distant speech meets of the year, Todd spoke in his extemp. rounds better than all but seven men. For his toil, Todd won a black ribbon, and though someone more haughty and jaded would deem a black ribbon an insult, you would have thought the team and Todd had won nationals, they kicked up such a celebration. Todd isn ' t uni- que on this team; everyone is realistic enough to realize that there is always another Satur- day, that missing finals is a lit- tle less of a disaster than death. Prima donnas don ' t last in Speech. The lesson in humility began at South Side on Octo- ber thirteenth, and over the next six months the speech team would go to Carrol, Har- ding, Manchester, Northrop, Columbia City, Northrop (again), East Noble, Dekalb, Elmhurst, Dekalb for section- als (team thins out), regionals at Huntington North (team winnowed further), and for Rhonda Sorg, Sue Andorfer and Matt Werling, the season ended with state finals at Perry Meridian High School in Indianapolis. The speech team was coached once again this year by Robert Stookey with help from club president Andy ' Buroker and vice-president Joe Andorfer. Sherry Boat- right replaced Janice Kryder midway through the season as secretary. An almost com- plete overhaul occurred in the speech team between Octo- ber and March. Old standbys 80 like Rod Stringfellow, Char- leve Mcintosh, Michelle Ham- rick, Janice Kryder, Teresa Paetz, and Scott Dove bowed out for the most part, because of either jobs or prior commit- ments. They gave way to enthusiastic rookies like Nata- lie Ellis in Poetry, Rhonda Sorg in Oratorical Interpreta- tion, Cindy Storer in Girls Extemp., Ben Werling and Heather Duemling in Dramatic Duo, Mike Hudson in Radio, Barb Lloyd in Original Oratory, and Lonnie Holston in just about everything. This hardy band was led by the old, big three of Andy Buroker, Sue Andorfer, and her brother Joe, and won more trophies, garnered more ribbons, and was consistently more power- ful than any speech team in Wayne ' s history. 81 All The World ' s A Club As if six and a half hours a day aren ' t sufficient, there are some that just can ' t get enough of Wayne High School. To fulfill that need, an unselfish teacher and some enthusiastic students band together to form a club. Almost a dozen clubs meet from time to time over the course of a year, some never meet, some suffer from apathy and fold, and still others flour- ish. This is the account of a few clubs that proved more interesting to their members than Little Rascals, or The Guiding Light on the after- school television. There was a club for almost everyone ' s interest, and they turned up in some unlikely places (Above) One of the stops on the Afro- American Club Chicago tour, included a bird ' s-eye view from the John Hancock building. (Right) Several members enjoy the Afro-American Club ' s winter rollers- katmg party In October, the Afro-Ameri- can Club traveled to Chicago to see the Kuumba workshop, a Chicago-based dramatic troupe. The agenda also included sight-seeing and shopping. Mrs. Garvin, Mr. Peters, and Miss Lowe saw the cosmopolitan group through their sightseeing tour, which took them on a visit to the John Hancock Building, and to the Water Tower shop- ping complex. When the time came to leave Water Tower for the theatre, however, one member of the group was missing. By the time she turned up, it was too late to see the play. No matter though, Mr. Peters saved the day when he took them on a trip into his old stomping grounds, which included some triple-A slums and tene- ments. After the Afro-American Club had recovered from their Chicago venture — some felt fortunate they got their hides out of Mr. Peter ' s old stomp- ing grounds — they collided one night at Link ' s Wonder- land for a rollerskating party. 82 Other activities of the Afro- Ameri can Club were a bake sale and a Black Heritage con- test during black history week. The heritage contest chal- lenged students to guess the name of a famous black Amer- ican, clues to whose identity were given over the announcements. Herr Shearer and his Ger- man Club as well as the other language clubs, stalked across the Tri- ' State area in search of bits of continental culture. The Deutsche Club sampled the cuisines of Japan, Germany, and France, at the Takaoka. the Heidel- berg in Huntington, and the Epicurean. In the winter, the German Club trouped to the Embassy on Jefferson Street to listen to the Vienna Boys Choir. And after school was out for the summer, the Herr took his band to the old world village of Frankenmuth, Michi- gan. Lang lebe Deutsch! The Bowling Club had another successful year under Mrs. McKinney ' s direction. As has become the Bowling Club ' s custom, the season was climaxed at a banquet, at which the season awards were presented. Big winners were the Fantastic Five, of Charles Armstead, Gary Fox. Chuck King, Anita Lowery, and Tony Minich. Tony Wil- helm rolled a 235. the high game for season II. The girls ' highest game was rolled by Melinda Cooper, a 206. The Bowling Club met regularly on (Above left) Sharita Jones stands in a window of the John Hancock building silhouetted before Chicago ' s skyline.

After facing extinction because of apathy, the Wayne Bowling Club has come back stronger than ever. The Small Engine Repair Club, under the direction of Mr. Marsh, gave students with an interest in engines the opportunity to stay after school and hone their craft. Most of the engines repaired were supplied by the lawn mowers of the faculty — as you drive around town and find a Wayne teacher ' s neatly manicured lawn, you have the Small Engine Repair Club to thank. One of the new clubs this year was the Social Club. Miss Kampschmidt led this group on visits to plays, such as As You Like It, the Nutcracker ballet, and Lindenwood ceme- tery to cross-country ski. They also schlussed to area havens of haute cuisine. Another new club was the Philosophy Club. A handful of inquisitive young lions gath- ered in the Pub room on Thursdays and discussed pressing social issues. The main attraction at these meet- ings of aspiring Sartres and Descartes was Regina Schultz versus Todd Slater, or The Irresistible Force meets the Immovable Object. Their year ended with a bang, as their discussion of war led them to see The Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now, and an after movie discussion at the Blue Mountain Coffee Co. sufficed as a banquet. Mr. Septer ' s Chess Club, composed largely of under- classmen, competed in several area tournaments. The team starred William Lewis, Mike Bliven, Jim Burchette, and Mike King. The young chess phenoms not only were among the best high school teams, but defeated several adult teams, and finished sec- ond in a tournament at IUPU.

A heavy weight was supposed to have dropped from our shoulders, followed by a great sense of relief. Everything should have felt different, like a new beginning. It didn ' t. But then again, we don ' t always get sentimental and cry at every wedding. We sometimes remain sober and observe, without using the excess energy emotions require. While the memory of the past decade is still fresh in our minds is it possible to be objective about it 9 Let ' s try. And now for your reading enjoyment, a non-nostalgic review of what was the past ten years. Some of the turbulence of the sixties were bound to spill over into the early seventies. The Kent State incident in 1970 brought the college unrest of the sixties to its dra- matic, bloody conclusion. All wars are terrible, needless to say, but something about a war lost makes that war seem infinitely worse. Viet Nam was such a war. Its wounds have been a long time healing, and it won ' t be held as a fond memory by very many of those who survived it. Sometimes it is only the dark events that make the headlines, such as the Olym- pic games in Munich where eleven members of the Israeli Olympic team were executed by Black September, a Pales- tinian terrorist group. Knee- capping became a popular phrase for Italian terrorists who enjoyed shooting to maim rather than to kill. The Tel Aviv airport became a bloody battleground in 1972, and 25 died. Uganda ' s dicta- tor, Idi Amin, had thousands of his own countrymen execu- ted. The Ayatollah Khomeini was the U.S. ' s whipping boy, and vice-versa. After success- fully ousting the Shah from the throne of Iran, Khomeini seized the reigns of Islam, condemned all U.S. actions, and took hostages in a raid on our Embassy. He even became Time ' s man of the year. The most popular soap opera of all time, according to Esquire magazine, was the Watergate hearings. Through the magic of television, Sam Ervin made Watergate a hou- sehold word, and the whole affair instilled a sense of dis- trust of government never reached before. The Water- gate fallout has been littering book stores since 1 972. But more than just the bad guys can type, however. Any- thing that was remotely inter- esting to anyone or anyone that had ever appeared in front of a camera could ghost write about it and make mil- lions. Everyone from Lauren Bacall, a starlet, through Suzie Randall, a harlot, to Phil Dona- hue, a pundit, wrote one. Books were cranked out mere days after events took place. The most amazing of these being the flurry of typewriters after the death of Elvis Pres- ley. Near the end of the dec- ade in 1977, the King died of an overdose, leaving behind an eligible wife, thousands of mourners, and millions of trinkets all bearing a haunting resemblance to Elvis. Heroes of all types were dropping like flies in the sev- enties. Passing from the world of sport into the next one were Thurman Munson, Roberto Clemente, and Jackie Robin- son. Groucho Marx, Louis Armstrong, Howard Hughes, Bing Crosby, Joan Crawford, Pablo Picasso, Arthur Feidler, Freddie Prinz, Pope Paul VI, Pope John Paul I, John Wayne, Charlie Chaplin, Mao Tse-tung, Harry Truman, Lyn- don Johnson, Jimmy Hoffa, and Golda Meir were just a few of the notables who didn ' t survive the decade. The me decade rumbled on with more fancies and fads than any other time p known to man. With the possi- ble exception of Caligula ' s reign (See the movie of the same name for details.). After the wake for the break-up of the Beatles had subsided, a musical void was left. Surpris- ing predictors of world trends, no one singer or act came along to dominate the music world. Instead, a mutation of rhythm and blues mingled with the latest in European electronics created Disco. It swept up everything in its path. Disco fashions were cre- ated, the disco look was for- mulated, and disco television shows were cranked out as if they were going out of style. And they slowly were. Breath- ing life back into disco was roller-disco. Eventually, how- ever, everything remotely connected with disco was banned from night spots or blown-up in Comiskey Park. Hard core rockers rebelled, and New Wave came into being. It was distantly related to European punk, but more tame. The seventies had its slime, pet rocks, and Adidas tennis shoes. The seventies had its horror craze, classical music surge, cable television growth, and contemporary gold rush. The seventies had its test tube baby, its valium, and its mass suicide. The seventies had its snail darter, its Three Mile Island, its Cult movies, its Cali- fornia attitude, its New York frame of mind, its designer jeans, and its all out race for sex goddess of the decade. One day looking back on all of it, these years will seem like the good old days. Or maybe not. ALL IN GOOD CHEER  Cheerleading — is it a hobby, a sport, a social com- mitment, or what 7 Whatever, the lite ot a cheerleader can ' t be easy — money making projects to pay for the suits, making cookies tor the teams, buying candy to throw at the crowd, and then spending all sixth period working on a new mount for Friday ' s pep ses- sion.

Each spring competitions are held to determine which lucky girls will be chosen to be the caretakers of Wayne spirit. The cheerleaders see the pep sessions as the focus of their activity. The pep sessions, says one cheerleader, are to get everyone rowdy, to get them to come to the game, and to get the players spirit up. Se One of the highlights of Wayne ' s varsity basketball and football games is the Wayne Band Corps. The Corps provides entertainment during half-time and pep ses- sions. During the summer, the corps practices every night, and marches in several parades. This year ' s Corps consisted of eight glove-line members, six rifles, and sixteen flags. During the basketball season, the Corps was especially entertaining, as each of the sections gave individual per- formances. This fall the Corps com- peted in the NISBOVA con- test. It was raining and hailing, but the Corps, undaunted, came out just two points below the cut for state. This talented group of young ladies, through hard work and determination, helped to boost General Spirit in times of victory and defeat. (Above) EYES. FRONT ' (Far right) Come on.

Green Council members not overly eager to jump into Homecoming, were quick to jot their names down on the Christmas Committee sign- up sheet. As November turned the cor- ner, slowly the gears cranked out Yuletide ideas. Names for the 1979 Christmas Festivities trip- ped quickly off the tongue, such as General in a pear tree, Wayne ' s Winter Wonderland, and Paris in the Spring (the latter having absolutely nothing to do with Christmas, but everyone ■ loves Paris in the Spring). The Committee finally rested upon the name Yuletide Fantasy and went back into hibernation; after all, Christmas was still a month away. The traditionally acceptable activities were planned. The Christmas breakfast, the Christ- mas Dance, the Christmas Party, the pre-Christmas Party (deck the Halls), the Christmas Assem- bly, and the Christmas Bureau. As the school newspaper screamed about our societies commercialization of Christmas, the Christmas Committee won- dered just how one could mix the flash of disco with the giggly seri- ousness of tradition. They found it could not be done, so they went with disco ' s flash. And if it didn ' t work out, it could always be changed; after all, Christmas was still three weeks away. 92 The classroom decoration contest had begun, Mr. Lie- man volunteered to help cook at the Christmas breakfast, the Christmas bureau boxes lay undecorated in Mrs. French ' s office, and several DJs were considered for the dance. True, things were moving slowly, but slowly was clearly fast enough; after all Christ- Pat Mattes puts finishing touches on a Christmas poster, proving that juniors truly do know their alphabet. Amidst the tinsel of a city busy with its own, a man waits for his dinner Juniors Joe Andorfer and Pat Mattes string decorations across the cafete- ria ceiling. An artificial Christmas tree stands appropriately above aftificial Christ- mas presents. mas was a whole two weeks away. Much to the astonishment of those involved, a Yuletide Fantasy was quickly becom- ing a Yuletide Reality. All the season ' s busy activities were fast culminating in Wednes- day the 19th. The 19th had great importance to those who vowed not to attend any of the season gymnasium events, but who ended up attending anyway because of five page research papers done by Tuesday ' s midnight oil. Research paper writers and Christmas Committee persons at this time still had nothing to worry about; after all, Christmas was five long days away. Junior class pranksters had taken the contents of the Sen- iors ' Christmas box and emp- tied it into their own, Senior class pranksters, however, quickly remedied the situa- tion. Last minute touches were being put on this and that. The gymnasium slowly filled; the 19th had finally arrived; the committee tensed for the orgasmic delights that would follow (not to be con- fused with the students sam- pling the organic delights in H- Hall restrooms. You know who you are.). Candy was thrown and win- ners were announced. The Junior class easily won Deck the Halls, the seniors had the privilege of having hard candy thrown at them for having the most canned goods in the Christmas bureau box, and the band walked away with the best decorated room award again. A real surprise was the first ever faculty skit, an absurd slice-of-life, made-for-Christ- mas drama that featured a jock, a grino, a druggie, a musician and cheerleaders. As a mass faculty chorus intoned We Wish You A Merry Christmas many stu- dents, noticing the lack of door guards, left early. The day had its traditional climactic ending, the Christ- mas party. Some danced, a few more gawked at the band, many more went home.

Biggely .... Kevin Bauer Smitty Pam Shookman Hedy LaRue . Christie Sanders Frump Scott Dove Gatch TimReuille Womper Kevin Fitzharris Synopsis J. Pierpont Finch is a win- dow-washer looking to make his mark on the world. He plots his strategy for achieving success according to a book on how to succeed in busi- ness. He finds work at a large corporation, the World Wide Wicket Company, where he attracts the attentions and affections of a starry-eyed secretary, Rosemary. A sly guy, Finch ingratiates himself with the higher-ups, and man- ages to outfox the syncophant Frump — who happens to be the nephew of the harried boss, J. B. Biggely — for a position as junior executive. Meanwhile, Biggely has his hands full with Hedy LaRue, a buxom secretary who isn ' t paid to type. Finch is assigned Hedy as a secretary, but when Finch sends Hedy with a per- sonal memo to Gatch, the Vice-President in charge of (Clockwise from above) Julie Van Olden, in her Perky, Winning perform- ance as Rosemary, waits wistfully for Finch; Jon Gardner is infuriated at his executives ' attitude toward Hedy; the WWW board meets to discuss Finch ' s ad campaign; the girl chorus, led by Pam Shookman as Smitty, pleads with Rosemary to keep after Finch; the executives lose their cool over Hedy ' s arrival. 36 Advertising, Gatch ' s libidio gets in the way, and it ' s off to South America with Mr. Gatch. Finch ascends to Gatch ' s position. All the while Rosemary (the one who fell in love with Finch at the start of the synopsis) is lost in the shuffle, as Finch is too busy succeeding in business to mess with women. Bud Frump has a score to settle with Finch (he was out- foxed by him, see above). Frump gives Finch an adver- tising scheme bound to fail — a television treasure hunt. But Hedy is made the World Wide Wicket Treasure Girl, to which Biggely is agreeable. Biggely, however, divulges the secret hiding place of the treasure (stock in World Wide Wickets) to Hedy, who in turn divulges the secret on television. All H- E double-hockey-sticks breaks loose, as fortune seek- ers scavenge for the treasure. Finch comes through the dis- aster smelling like a rose and replaces Womper, a former window-washer himself (get it!), as World Wide Wickets Chairman of the Board. Finch rediscovers the patient Rose- mary. Everyone is happy. The curtain falls.

The class, led all the way by Joe Andor-. fer, spent a small fortune on the 1980 prom, A Time For Us. Although attendance was down from previous (clockwise from left) The King of the 1980 Prom Court was Scott Bernard; The Queen was Joan Zimmerman; pausing from the prom dance in Juliet ' s balcony, are Terry Bush, and Foods chairman Rhonda Sorg, attendant Janice Kryder gives gifts to the prom court. 98 Per Us years, those who came to dance enjoyed themselves immensely, thanks to the superb organization of the Prom committee. Shelley Smith directed the Romeo and Juliet decorations, which included a large balcony in the Commons. Rhonda Sorg headed the foods committee, and Janice Kryder orches- trated the coronation. Renee Gotrick was in charge of print- ing, Linda Parn in of photogra- phy, and Beth Block secured the J. Branum Band. Mr. Piatt and Mr. Graham were the fac- ulty members who gave the Juniors the biggest help. The highlight of the Prom is always the coronation, and this year Joan Zimmerman and Scott Bernard were crowned Queen and King. The Junior Court was com- posed of Toni Bade, Cassan- dra Shirmeyer, Jon Denney, and Greg Trainer. The Senior Court was made up of Joel Specht, Angela Holloway, Dave Kohrman, and Randy Springer. The Juniors met their budget of two thousand dol- lars. Although some commit- tees went over budget, other committees had enough sur- plus to cover the difference. There was no after-prom once again this year, as no one wanted to take the responsi- bility of a large, young crowd. Several alternatives were planned, but they were all cancelled due to a lack of sponsorship. 99 Part of the education we receive over the space of thir- teen years time is in the arts — that includes performance. Our guardian angels some- times feel obliged to give us urchins a little culture. They even occasionally hit upon something; if they only knew we really were enjoying our- selves and being educated, it would be quite a kick to them. No matter. People on the home front mount the stage now and again, with special interest groups bringing in entertainment for the entire school. This year, students at Wayne got it from all sides. Susan Streeter, the gymnastics coach, and her husband Dave high- light Friday Night Live with their band Two Way Street. 100 The internationally known mime Claude Kipnis — who has trained with the master Marcel Marceau — brought his mime troup to Wayne in September. The Company performed several pieces rele- vant to the high school trauma, including an interpre- tation of the agony of The Final Exam. Perhaps the most brilliant slice of life served up by the troupe was The Date, which poignantly showed two people who unwittingly stand each other up, in more ways than one. Early in the fall, the gymnas- tics squad discovered it needed new uniforms. So, under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Streeter and Mr. Sawyer, a benefit was presented the night of December 7. Part of the audience was drunk and went out of its way to be obnoxious. This disrupted Kicking into high gear, Ball State ' s show choir entertains an exuberant crowd in Wayne ' s auditorium. some acts — like a magic . show — on the whole it was one of the best shows on a Wayne stage in quite a while. The highlight of the evening was Two Way Street, com- posed of Mr. and Mrs. Streeter, and the Streeters plus John Andrew and Fred- die King in another band. Mr. Anderson and the swing choir treated the school to A Real Big Swing Choir (ARBSC), the Ball State Sing- ers. The ARBSC was brought in to infect everyone with the joys of choir, and secondarily to raise money for the Wayne swing choir ' s trip to Florida in spring. The swing choir had also hoped Student Council Mr. Fox, one of Wayne ' s favorite geometry teachers, struts his Steve Martin-King Tut imitation for the FNL audience.

The stars of Friday Night Live, the gymnasts, welcome their guests with a rousing dance. would contribute $100 to help foot the bill, but that fell through. The ARBSC was brought in anyway, and was a success. When choir tryouts were held in the spring every- one either auditioned or had a friend who did. The Sensation Singers held their own show in the spring, and though the audience was slimmer, it was more polished than the 1 979 show. The mas- ters of ceremonies were Ben and Matt Werling, who kept things moving smoothly. The swing choir did their Bishop Luers Contest show, and other numbers developed especially for the occasion. The stage band performed, as did other student groups and soloists. The best bit was a saxophone-piano duet, Har- lem Nocturne, with John Col- vin on sax, and Julie Alten- burgon piano. 101 (above) The 1980 COE group included (front row) Jennie Jacobs.

COE provides students aspiring to the business world on-the-job experience. There were sev- enteen girls and one guy in this year ' s group. They were employed by businesses ranging from banks, to a den- tist ' s office, a landscaping firm, and the Wayne High School main office. Two students being edu- cated in the office coopera- tively rose through the annual state COE contests to reach the national finals in Minne- sota. Jeff Ensch and Laurie Hammerstein spent a week- end competing in the northern state in the spring. Jeff ulti- mately placed fifth in the accounting competition. 103 There are great towns — heaving cities and hamlets rip- pling with energy — and then there are places with more subtle charms, which must be searched long and diligently to find their faint pulse. Fort Wayne is one of these, and while at first glance it merely appears as a sleepy, backwa- ter burg, there are rewards for someone patient enough to fight through the fog. And as much as one tries to refuse her hegemony, Fort Wayne BUILDING UP THE SUMMIT has shaped those living in her boundaries, and they have shaped her. A place like this builds character, and it is likely, as in the Vernon Jordan affair, we will always react to a crisis with a jingoist regional- ism — a charming naivete being an irreversible part of our ilk. Fort Wayne is indeed pacific, but occasionally something happens which makes its inhabitants realize there ' s more to the world than the Tri-State area. Some examples: In September, The Ku Klux Klan recognized Fort Wayne as a bedrock of tacit racist support, and came to parade their same old brand-new 104 selves down the streets of Waynedale. They told every- one that would listen how they now feared drugs more than they feared Catholics, Blacks, and Jews. Once they began their march, however, it was soon apparent they still stood for ignorance and hate. The Summit Square project progressed slowly, as did con- struction everywhere else in the city. Cranes dominated the city ' s skyline, as bulldoz- ers, front-end loaders, and dirt clods littered the streets. Mar- tin Mull was accurate when he said at the Embassy, Fort Wayne is alright, if you ever finish it. The news media could flex their muscles in May, when National Urban League Presi- dent Vernon Jordan was shot in the Mariott parking lot. Every news agency in town rushed to out-coverage the other, until everyone tired of the circus and returned to covering the hog markets. In June, the still ailing Jordan was flown home to New York, and the police were still stumped. Not the best years for the Chamber of Com- merce. c 5 BUY A GUN 1 C5 ' 16 Matter Over Mind Long ago, before western civili- zation decided that the mind was somehow purer, more exalted, than the flesh, back when the Greeks still had control of our world, people recognized the importance of the body and how the condition of the body affects the mind. Our doctors now tell us that if we ' re depressed, we should run, jog, pedal, play. We get depressed when we just sit around in dark rooms and do things like put yearbooks together. The body affects the mind. And a finely tuned body has an aura all its own. Of course there is pain as one pushes against one ' s limits; of course it takes time to find out what limits one has, but there is a glow too, a confident sense of one ' s own well-being. Wide World of Sports advertises the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. But they forget the most important aspect — the joy of par- ticipation. That moment in between buckets and birdies, touchdowns and takedowns — that moment in between game, set, and match when it ' s just good to be out there. You just kinda want to smile. baseball Wayne Opp Homestead 3 Harding 6 Concordia 10 5 Bellmont 10 South Side 6 10 Manchester 10 Snider (5 innings) 3 4 Churubusco 8 Churubusco 10 2 Homestead 6 8 Northrop 3 1 North Side (12 inn.) 3 2 Huntington North 3 5 Huntington N, (8 inn.) 5 8 Luers 4 Elmhurst 2 1 Harding Invitational Carroll 4 3 New Haven 9 8 Blackford 15 2 Dwenger 5 3 South Side 2 7 Norwell 8 Northrop 9 North Side 8 4 Sectionals New Haven (1 1 inn.) 6 4 Elmhurst 1 4 RECORD 19 8 boys boys basketball - -■ track Varsity Reserve Varsity Reserve Wayne Opp. Wayne Opp Wayne Opp Wayne Opp. South Side 56 67 68 41 Snider 62 50 35 28 Homestead 56 33 68 37 Huntington (OT) 59 68 48 63 Harding 80 46 53 56 Muncie Central 44 55 34 37 North Side 82 45 57 66 South Side 45 50 28 47 Northrop 60 67 50 79 Bellmont 63 43 47 51 Snider 50 94 33 90 Holiday Tour.

That squad cap- tured the city crown and finished the year with a sparkling 17-2 mark. Coach Sawyer engi- neered one of the youngest teams ever into the makings of a state-ranked contender. The squad was based on the top three singles players who rounded a phenomenal 58-5 mark, although Sawyer could count points from any area at the varsity level. For the second year of three years of varsity competition, Junior Ted Johnston emerged with the best record for the Generals Johnston ' s lone loss came during the Homestead invita- tional where he placed second, but he averaged that defeat by coming from behind in a grueling three-set comeback in the sectional finale. Johnston showed his domination by winning his first five matches without allowing any of his opponents to collect a single game, a stretch of sixty straight games. nmtuMi wu mrr TSU3ET TENNIS TEAM (I to r) Kneeling: Coach Sawyer, Kevin Martin, David Hatlam, Mike Lester, Brian Lunsford, Standing: Doug Kloplenstein, Ted Johnston, Jay Goldner (Captain), Dave Kohrman, Gary Hiatt, Bill Sta- dler. Brian Rider (Far left) Dave Kohrman leans into his serve for extra power, (Left above) Bill Stadler chases the ever elusive, fuzzy ball; Ted Johnston shows his mastery of the forehand volley by smashing a groundstroke past his opponent 111 Freshman Bill Stadler became Wayne ' s top player, losing only twice to nationally ranked Joye Christoff of the number two team in the state, Homestead. Stadler ' s season record is even more impressive because of the overall excel- lence in high school tennis teams in the area, and his aggressive style of play led to many exciting matches. Sta- dler also landed a spot on the highly acclaimed All-Area team. Youth can be a great build- ing asset, but experience usu- ally helps lead teams to titles. Wayne ' s two varsity seniors, co-captains Dave Kohrman and Jay Goldner, were back- bones of the team and brought leadership and inva- luable points to the champion- ship season. Goldner fluctu- ated between third singles, where he posted a 1 2-2 mark, and first doubles with Kohrman, where they com- piled an unblemished 7-0 slate. Kohrman amassed a 6-7 record playing the top doubles spot without Goldner. His p ner for these matches was Jui r Gary Hiatt who imprc 3d his play tremen- dously. When Hiatt wasn ' t playing first doubles he teamed with Brian Rider, Brian Lunsford, or Doug Klopfenstein. Rider and Hiatt had twelve and eleven wins respectively against nine losses, and Luns- ford and Klopfenstein, though used sparingly during the sea- son, snared 4-5 marks. Soph- omore Mike Lester added two varsity matches to his even record in ten reserve matches. Freshman Dave Hatlem pro- vided a bright spot with an 8-7 record in reserve play. Wayne ' s netmen lost only one regular season match after reeling off thirteen con- secutive triumphs. The Gener- als dropped a 3-2 decision to Harding but still captured their first, and Wayne High School ' s only, city title of the year. Wayne did not lose again until the stctional finale where they were stopped by the then fourth rated team in the state, Homestead. At first the Spartans racked up two quick wins in second doubles and third singles, and the victory seemed secure for the home Spartans. But the senior doubles duo of Goldner and Kohrman came through with a grueling three set vic- tory, including a tiebreaker in the last set where Goldner won every point. Johnston also won for the Generals at second singles in another three set match — overcom- ing his only loss of the regular season. The match came down to a battle of national powers, as Wayne ' s Stadler and Homestead ' s Christoff met for the second time of the year. Stadler surprised many in the crowd by capturing the first set, but his adversary struggled back to win the next two sets. Wayne gained some consolation as perennial power Homestead advanced to the state finals in what was their best year ever. 112 ANYONE INSTEAD OF HOMESTEAD ' •• ' i;iuv.v..--v- t-V-V-4 wm. i. .

The Generals opened their season with a 14-9 victory over Jay County, but were then held scoreless by South Bend St. Joe in a 13-0 con- test.

The Generals pulled off the upset and turned their season around by turning South away from the goal line and beating them 1 8-0.

At the close of the season, •14 Ji SEASON Wayne found itself in a three- way tie for first place in the SAC south division with South Side and Elmhurst. Elmhurst received the nod for the championship game, which sparked controversy since Wayne had previously defeated both Elmhurst and South Side. For the entire season, Wayne kept the ball on the ground, rushing for 1273 yards total averaging 141 yards per game. Although the Generals ' passing wasn ' t strong WR Kendrick Boyd managed to set a new record for Wayne by gaining 455 yards on 29 receptions.

' •w , ■ ,!, )  ■ i 116 The reserve football team started the season on a bad note, losing its first two games But this in no way discouraged them, as they went on to win all of their remaining contests. After their losses to Snider and South Side, the men of the reserve squad started their ram- page by defeating the Harding Hawks. The following two victo- ries were close, only two points being the difference in each. The strong Wayne defense prevented both Luer ' s and Northrop ' s offenses from scoring two point conversions and sending both games into overtime. The next win, against North, was acquired with the help of a special trick-play devised by coaches Mendenhall and Bierb- aum The Generals were trailing when, with only two minutes remaining, second string quar- terback Kevin Cooke received the snap, whirled around and slammed the ball into the ground. It bounced into the hands of first string quarterback John Warren who had been moved to the flanker position. He threw a long bomb to the split end for the winning score. The success of such a play depends on the defense ' s believ- ing that the initial bounce pass is incomplete and that the play is over But since the pass is to the rear, it is really a fumble, and play continues. When the Reds- kins let up, thinking the ball was dead, Warren was able to com- plete his pass unmolested. The success of the season was truly a team effort with everyone doing their job well and working together. Nick Leba- moff, Mark Mungovan, and Lon Bradfield were defensive stand- outs on a fine unit that did its job effectively and quickly, stopping the opponents ' drives dead in their tracks and remaining fresh for the entire game. When the offensive team took over, they first moved the ball on the ground with the fine running of, among others, Vince Jones. Their running game set up a potent attack from the air. Ted Sorg and Dave Neher were Wayne ' s blocks of granite who gave quarterbacks John Warren and Kevin Cooke plenty of time to complete their many passes. The freshman football team also pulled its own weight, trium- phant in all but the final game. Outstanding running by Randy Bains and Doug Brewer and the strong passing of quarterback Tim Burton to his excellent receivers led to the successful season. The frosh footballers also had a strong defense, giving up an average of less than three points per game. 117 - 22 5C 5 Five points separated the 1 979 cross country team trom a trip to Indianapolis and a chance to participate in the state meet. It was an anticli- mactic end to a season that saw the Generals pick up momentum and peak at sec- tionals. Over the past three years Coach Nelson Detwiler ' s teams have compiled a regu- lar season record of 61-5, but have never managed to advance beyond the sec- tional. This time around, their season mark was not so impressive at 1 1 -6, but for the first time in Wayne ' s history, they made it out of sectionals and very nearly made it all the way to state. Responsible for this was £oach Detwiler ' s new strategy that concentrated on the big meets and turned the tables on their rivals. Opening the season, the harriers struggled along, dropping close meets to state ranked teams. While their opponents used the strength of two or three individuals, the Generals sacrificed them- selves to work on group run- ning. This is vital for competi- tion in big meets and turned (Above) The regional champs await their laurels; (Right) Kenny Thomas chases the leader; (Middle right) CROSS COUNTRY (I to r) Kneeling: Sheri Heller, Debbie Hughes; Stand- ing Front Row: Tom Miller.

Wayne ' s record stood 8- 5 just before the SAC meet, where they finished fifth as a result of a mediocre team effort. After the meet, dis- gusted Coach Detwiler com- mented We own fifth place; they ought to put our name on it. (Wayne had finished fifth in the city two out of the past three years and in all of the last three sectional races.) Next, Wayne traveled to Manchester for one of the most renowned and largest invitationals in the state. The varsity squad pulled down eighth place, despite losing number one runner, Sopho- more Kenny Thomas to the freshman sophomore compe- tition. Thomas failed to defend his individual honors of a year ago, even though his clocking of 12:35 was three seconds faster than his winning time as a freshman. He finished an easy second to an outstand- ing freshman in a pack of nearly 200 runners. The frosh soph team, two-time champi- ons, couldn ' t retain their crown either, as they placed seventh. The Generals fin- ished their dual meet season with three wins and a 27-29 loss to Homestead. At the sectionals, Wayne let loose their best effort of the season and achieved every- thing they had hoped to. They finished in second place behind a highly regarded Nor- well squad, and paid back early season losses to Harding and South Side. Thomas and Senior Kenton Bailey placed in the top team. A veteran run- ner, Bailey ran his last season as the number one man for the first half of the season until a highly talented Thomas passed him. Bailey was co- captain of the team, and became Wayne ' s first four- year letterman. The other co- captain, senior Tom Miller who ran with Thomas and Bai- ley early in the year, was forced to sit out the race due to illness. He came back for the next two races, but wasn ' t running at full strength. Nor- mally number five man, Junior Mark Holbrook ran the best race of his life to finish third for Wayne and was a major factor in the excellent team performance. One week later, Wayne walked onto the Shoaf Park Course looking to place in the top four in order to move onto semi-state. They did just that with a fourth place finish. In doing so they knocked off two more opponents that had defeated the Generals during the season (Homestead and Bishop Dwenger). Juniors Tom Adams and Loren Bun- nell moved up to third and fourth man, respectively. Adams, as usual, rose to the occasion of a big meet finish- ing twenty-sixth. Equally impressive, Bunnell, who was one of three Wayne runners to break 1 3:00 this year, finished the two and a half mile course a few seconds in back of Adams. Dave Wilson, who let- tered for the second year in a row, rounded out Wayne ' s scoring with a solid perform- ance. Since Dekalb failed to make it out of sectionals, the Gener- als had paid back five of six losses on the season. Nor- throp remained the only team with whom Wayne had a debt to settle. They figured to be the fourth place team at the semi-state. Wayne was look- ing to get them, but when the dust settled, the Bruins had undone Wayne ' s season by a mere five points. Wayne ' s reserve team enjoyed a 14-3 season, with a fourth place finish in the SAC. Tim Regenold led the team with victories in five of nine regular season meets. Look- ing for spots on next year ' s varsity team will be Jim Rob- bins, Jeff Regenold. Greg Bor- kowski, and Matt Holbrook. 11S THE SAINTS MARCHED ON (Above) As Megan Clifford looks on, Ann Trainer goes high in the air to return a volley; (Far above) VARSITY VOLLEYBALL (I to r) Kneeling: Sybil Perry, Kim Zimske, Lori Zimmerman, Linda Weber, Julie Peppier, Debbie Holloway; Standing: Bonnie Lahman, Joanie Zimmerman, Janice Tourney, Kelly Enkoff, Julie Altenburg, Dawn Seligman, Kristi Woods, Coach Jor- dan; (Above right) Julie Peppier turns her back to the net to make a key save; (Right) Janice Tourney and Debbie Holloway ' press the flesh ' after a victory; RESERVE VOLLEY- BALL (I to r) Kneeling: Janet Kirk- man, Jackie Cooper, Janice Kirkman, Sybil Perry, Lisa Trainer; Standing: Kristi Woods, Megan Clifford, Lori Good, Julie Shepler, Ann Trainer. 120 With two consecutive sec- tional championships in 1977 and 1978, the 1979 Volleyball team had the eyes ot the SAC on them. The team had talent and experience, winning 28 out of 36 matches and suc- cessfully defending their sec- tional title again. The girls jumped off to a fast start by winning their first three matches against Home- stead, South Adams and Nor- well, soundly defeating each. Their next match was against Woodlan in which Wayne won the first game 1 5-5, but Wood- lan took the next two 8-15, and 9-15. Then the ladies reeled off a stretch of 14 wins, defeating such powerhouses as Bellmont and Carmel. In SAC play the Generals were strong, easily defeating most of their opponents. But in their last two SAC matches, the Generals ' defense was their demise, and they lost both to Dwenger and Concor- dia. Their loss to Dwenger was the deciding game in the SAC race, and the Generals had to settle for runner-up. Sectional play began and the Generals defeated New Haven and Bishop Luers with Julie Peppler ' s serves and Julie Altenburg ' s and Kelly Enkoff ' s spikes being too much for the Bulldogs and the Knights as the General spikers defeated the former in two games, 1 5-1 0, 14-11, and the latter in three games, 15-4, 7- 15, 15-6. In the Sectional finale, Wayne and Harding battled in three games 15-6, 9-15, 13-11. The Generals dominated defense and offense and Joanie Zimmer- man ' s fine sets for her team- mates was a decisive factor. Hopes of advancing to state were stifled by Bishop Swen- ger who defeated Wayne in a three set match, 3-15, 10-8, 11-15. The Generals had some consolation though, as Seniors Kelly Enkoff and Joannie Zimmerman were named to All-SAC and All- Area squads with Julie Pep- pier placing on the all confer- ence second team. 121 (Clockwise from right) Scrappers Kendrick Boyd and Dennis Duncan hit the boards; Tracy Guy and Eric Chapman shot over the Concordia defense; Eric Chapman fights for the rebound of a Ben Moore shot.

The varsity basketball squad struggled through what many considered the toughest schedule in the state coming away with a surprisingly suc- cessful year. They nursed winning records out of the SAC (5-4) and overall (11-10), against no fewer than seven state-ranked teams. After defeating Snider 62- 50, the Generals dropped their next three games until they bombed Bellmont 63-43 to enter the holiday tourna- ment at 2-4. In their opening contest at the coliseum Wayne downed Bishop Dwen- ger and advanced to the sec- ond round where South Side knocked them out of the tour- nament. The new year began with a tough loss to the highly rated Anderson Indians in three overtimes, 79-74. Wayne then ran their losing streak to five games making their record 3- 8, but except for one lapse at the Northrop game the Gener- als ended the regular season without another loss. First, they upset a strong Concordia team 42-40 and then formerly number one ranked Harding, 59-53, in double overtime. In the sec- tionals, riding high on their seven game winning streak, the Generals met one of the state ' s top teams, South Side who defeated them 59-44. This made for the third time during the season that the Archers beat Wayne and ended the Generals play in the state tournament. Senior Wayne Award win- ner Tracy Guy, along with Kendrick Boyd led the Gener- als ' offensive attack with iden- tical 13.5 points per game averages. Guy was also tops on the team with 144 rebounds. He emerged as a dependable scoring threat, as he had the second best field goal percentage, and was among the leaders in all offen- sive categories. Boyd ' s num- bers followed closely behind Guy ' s across the board. Eric Chapman was Wayne ' s other big point man with a 10-8 point per game average. The three players combined for over two-thirds of the Gener- als total points. Senior Tony Causey led the team with a 56 percentage from the field. Kevin Wright, who took over the starting center position, pulled down 122 rebounds while handing out 33 assists. Junior Daymond Whitt and Sophomore Ben Moore saw quite a bit of action this year and should return to help out next year ' s squad. 123 Bg WHERE ' D EVERY 124 BODY GO? A young reserve basketball squad played well at times, but inconsistently overall, to finish with an 8-12 record. Junior Brent Parker, a scrappy guard by far receiving the most playing time of any- one on the team, led the squad in total points, assists, and recoveries. Tom Apple- gate held a 9.1 points per game average while splitting his playing time with the var- sity squad. Sophomore Chris Adams was second behind Applegate averaging 6.7 points per game. Terry Clark hit 55 per- cent of his shots from the field and was 80 percent from the charity stripe to lead the Gen- erals in both categories. John Warren provided strength as a forward, pulling down 70 rebounds, and was a solid defensive player. Darryl Can- non showed much promise as he scored 8.0 points per game and shot 50 percent from the field and 71 percent from the free-throw line. The team only averaged .6 of a point per game less than their opponents, but will be strong next year as a result of the numerous underclassmen on the varsity this year. The General Sophomore basketball team ran off five consecutive victories at the start of the season before Nor- throp edged them 36-33. They ended their season by tallying 54 points to down East Noble and make their record 6-3. Sharing their talent with the reserve squad, the sophs played consistently, led by the scoring of Vincent Jones and John Fanning. Terry Clark was also an all around plus for the team with his hustle at both ends of the court. The freshman basketball squad finished a successful season with a 10-4 record, providing more hope for future varsity basketball at Wayne. Starting forwards Tim Burton and Randy Raines took care of the scoring, each consistently among the team leaders. Center Scott White did the work under the boards along with the two forwards Danny Correll and James Hol- man, who also led the defense with solid play all over the court.

The General girls were knocked off in the championship game by the powerhouse Bishop Luers ' Knights, 53-34, after besting Elmhurst and Harding convincingly to gain a berth in the finale. Coach Bob Fox had prob- lems getting his team on track as they triumphed in only two of their first ten games. The team showed more poise by winning their last four contests before their loss to the Knights and finished with a 7-1 1 mark. Seniors Kelly Enkoff and Janice Tourney provided the muscle underneath, while Cheryl Govan and Jackie Cooper added outside shoot- ing. The 6 ' 1 Enkoff pulled down valuable rebounds for outlet passes, and Tourney managed a hot hand in numerous games, earning an honorable mention spot on the all-SAC team in this, her junior year. Govan has started on the varsity for three straight years and will be sorely missed as a junior graduate. Cooper along with freshman Lori Good and Kim Zimski were playmakers and ballhandlers who con- trolled the tempo. Despite los- ing four players, Coach Fox can look forward to strong replacements from the reserve and freshman teams. (Clockwise from above) VARSITY BASKETBALL (I to r) Kneeling: Jackie Cooper.

The Generals placed third in both the Manchester and Goshen invitationals and gained a third straight sectional title and a second straight regional title. Nine sectional champions; Loren Bunnell at 98, Doug Brewer at 105, Derrick Brewer at 119, Brian Konger at 132, Lon Bradfield at 138, Gary Moore at 145, Scott Steintorth at 167, Randy Springer at 167, and Per Gusafsson at 1 85, along with a second from Dave Wilson; enabled Wayne to walk right through section- als and into regionals. With Bunnell, Konger, and Randy Springer nabbing regional titles, and with Doug and Der- rick Brewer and Lon Bradfield grabbing seconds, the Gener- als scored another devastat- ing victory, leaving them in good shape for semistate. In the 98 pound class Loren Bunnell captured Wayne ' s first semistate title and remained unbeaten at 25-0-1. Brian Konger was the other place finisher with a hard fought third, giving Wayne enough points for a sixth place finish. At state Bunnell won two out of his three matches for a third place fin- ish and ended the year with a 27-1-1 record, the best in Wayne ' s history. Dave Wilson, 1 6-6, was first at Goshen and all-SAC at 1 26 pounds; Derrick Brewer, 19-3- 1 , won at Manchester and was also all-SAC at 119; In addi- tion to his semistate triumph, Bunnell was Manchester and Goshen 98 pound champion and all-SAC at 105. Also com- piling winning records were Doug Brewer, 11-10; Brian Konger, 16-6-2; Lon Brad- field, 10-4; Gary Moore, 12- 10; Scott Steintorth, 16-6; and Randy Springer, 18-7. The Generals will have nine of their thirteen letter winners returning next year for an even stronger line-up. 12S YOUTH HAD ITS DAY. A young squad and a young coach provided many exciting moments for gymnastics fans at Wayne with a tremendous burst at the beginning of the season and an impressive 10- 4 slate for the year. The Wayne girls powered over area teams, never losing in six meets. But they didn ' t fare as well in city competition, only breaking even with four marks in each column. Coach Sue Streeter, in only her second year of coaching at Wayne, ignited the General team to six quick wins, a 2-0 mark in SAC play, and a respectable fifth place in the Harding Invitational. The always tough Bruins of Nor- throp knocked them from their lofty perch, but Wayne came back with three more wins. The last four matches proved costly for the Generals as they could only rack up enough points to out-distance Bishop Dwenger, falling to confer- ence powers North Side, Sni- der, and Concordia. Sectionals too, was a disap- pointment, as Wayne placed second to a Harding team they had defeated during the regular season. Wayne did manage to send four girls on to regionals though none advanced to state competi- tion. For the second year, soph- omore Terri Bade was the backbone of a young and inexperienced squad. Bade captured honors in the floor exercise, just edging out freshman teammate Lisa Trainer, and placed second in the all around competition. During the regular season Bade placed in nearly every event she competed in and in one meet racked up a high 31 .95 mark total in her four events. Right along side Bade were three more girls on the optional level capable of all around competition. Trainer, junior Sybil Perry, and fresh- man Cheri Heller. All piled up their share of ribbons and gained some invaluable expe- rience for future years. The intermediate team also had their successes. They compiled a 9-5 mark led by junior graduate Beth Block, Sharon Tsiguloff, and Kelly Greene. Greene captured a couple all around honors, and Block was the sectional floor exercise champion as well as finishing second on the beam. Tsiguloff followed Block closely with a second in floor exercise. Senior Julie Peppier com- peted in only one event, the bars, and brought valuable points to the General totals. Peppier, along with Block and Debbie Holloway, will be the only girls leaving the 79-80 squad. JO (Clockwise from left) Debbie Holloway reaches for her horse, Sybil Perry shows why it ' s called a balance beam, Lisa Trainer touches her heel the hard way; Lisa Arnold pauses on the uneven bars; Beth Block makes it look easy 131 In addition to the fine intra- mural program that is run by Mr. Beerman and the intramu- ral sports council and which includes such sports as bas- ketball, ping pong, and bad- minton, many Wayne students sought their athletics outside both Wayne and the SAC. Charles McClelland was the third ranking silver glover in the nation in his weight class and spent most of the year, especially late winter and early spring, training for the park department sponsored golden glove tournament. Also training year-round was junior Jon Denny, ranked as one of the top twenty swim- mers in the country.

At regional competition in Cin- cinnati this past year, Jon qualified for the Olympic trials by winning the 1650 yard freestyle and 200 yard but- terfly events. He was also sec- ond in the 100 yard butterfly and 400 yard intermediate medley, but did not advance in these events. One of the greater accom- plishments of the year was the remarkable success of the soccer club. Still not regarded as a sanctioned high school sport, ten area high schools fielded teams in 1980 and promised more participation in upcoming years. Despite sub- stantial operating costs, the team grew stronger and drew as many and more fans than some varsity sports at Wayne. The squad, under the watchful eye of former collegi- ate star and second year coach, John Bierbaum, rev- ersed last year ' s lethargic 2-7- 1 record for a remarkable 7-2 mark. Included in those wins was a spectacular double overtime upset of the number sixteen ranked prep team in the nation, Bishop Luers. With the acquisition of foreign exchange student Per G us- taffson from Sweden, the team increased their scoring punch to put them in the thick of the city title race. Gustaffson led the team in goals with twelve tallies, scor- ing in all but one regular sea- son game. Junior Grant Acker followed with half that total, including a hat trick against New Haven. Bronn Pfieffer, Jay Goldner, and Dan Miller, along with the Swede, dom- inated the middle of the field all season. Pfieffer showed that size isn ' t everything as the little freshman fired in three goals in a romp over Concordia and landed a spot on the South Division All-Star team. Gold- ner, playing the underpubli- cized sweeper position, and Miller, the rambunctious, inpenetrable stopper, forged the heart of a determined defense. Goldner used his unearthly quickness to garner steals and start fastbreaks, as Miller displayed the perfect defensive form with his kama- kazi tactics and flawless per- formances. Ron Borkowski and Terry Sorg were two workhorses who raced the length of the field and unselfishly gave up scoring opportunities for pic- ture perfect passes. The ever energetic John Griggs used his fantastic leaping ability to knock down errant balls and dished out numerous assists. Miller, Gustaffson, and Bor- kowski joined Pfieffer on the South All-Star squad that demolished the North Stars 10-2. 133 WRIGHT AS WRAIN ■ (Above) Kevin Wright shows the power that made him all-SAC; (Right) Bob Lebamoff waits tensely for a pitch during practice; (Above right) John Warren gets ready to unleash a high hard one, (Far right) Andy Lebamoff shows that even conditioning drill like jumping rope can be fun.

They defeated Bishop Dwenger to turn their dismal start in the SAC to 6-3, the result of five conference victories in a row. They finished with an 8-4 mark in the conference, and led by all conference picks Kevin Wright and Andy Leba- moff, Wayne ' s baseball team rambled to a 19-8 overall record and a bid in the sec- tional championship game. THe diamondmen opened sectionals against New Haven, and downed the Bull- dogs, 6-4, before losing to Elmhurst, 4-1 , in the champi- onship game. Wright, a varsity starter at third base for Wayne all four years, leaves as the most prominent offensive player in Wayne ' s brief history. He holds many of the school records and this year led the team in seven categories. His .405 tatting average was tops on the team as well as his 33 RBIs, five home runs, 32 hits, 20 stolen bases, 23 walks, and 21 runs scored. Lebamoff continued as a solid defensive player at first base with 178 put outs. He also batted .298 and scored 21 runs. Eric Chapman was both a valuable pitcher and hitter. He had a 6-1 record and a 1 .90 ERA. He also bat- ted .300 and clouted 4 homer- uns, accounting for 30 RBIs. Jeff Burton did an excellent job on the mound with a 1 .82 ERA to go along with a 5-2 record. He also showed that he could swing the bat, hitting at a .286 clip. John Warren and Chris Adams each had a winning record to round out the pitching staff. Probably the second big- gest offensive threat on the team after Wright was catcher Bob Lebamoff who hit .361 . He accumulated 30 hits including 3 home runs.

Just as last year, this year ' s top four golfers con- sisted of a senior, a junior, a sophomore, and a freshman, playing in that order. In the number one position was sen- ior Dave Wilson, followed by junior Line Schneider and his brother sophomore Bradd Schneider in second and third positions. Freshman Bob Kwatnez filled in the fourth position. A similar pattern could emerge again next year, as another Freshman, Mike Sellermeier and junior John Kuntz shared the fifth position with averages of 44. The linksmen finished an excellent season by placing sixth in an eighteen team sec- tional and were paced by Wil- son with a best score of 77 at sectionals. Dave also led the team throughout the year by shooting consistently. His teammates commented that nothing affected Dave ' s per- formance; he was always able to keep his composure no matter what the circum- stances. His experience helped him to win the Wayne Award for golf and a blanket award. The Schneider brothers made up a nice duo with aver- ages of 40 and 41. Line ' s strength was his strength, his tremendous driving ability. Rain or shine, he could hit the ball long distances with great accuracy. Bradd stood out as an excellent chipper, and freshman Kwatnez shows promise as a fine putter. The playing conditions were terrible this year. The team had to put up with soggy courses, low temperatures, and high winds in the coldest, rainiest spring this area has seen for quite some time. The second time the Generals played Bellmont, they had to fight wind gusts of up to forty miles per hour and a wind chill of 10°F. At that match, Line Schneider quickly adapted to the adverse conditions and shot a fine 38. Next year looks bright, as the team will boast five returning lettermen. 37 ANYBODY NEED A FOURTH FOR (Clockwise from far left) Roland Ell- ington; Eddie Cannon; Ron Borkow- ski; John Burton; Robert Cox and Kendrick Boyd. 138 J TRACK? Though plagued with incon- sistency, Wayne ' s track team regrouped after a disappoint- ing 79 season displaying sur- prising strength finishing 5-4. Three of the four losses were to state-ranked rivals within the Conference: South Side, Northrop, and Snider. At one point during the season, the General cindermen were themselves recognized as the 1 9th best team in the state. In addition Wayne captured fourth place at the North Side Relay, Goshen Relay, SAC meet, and the Dayton Invita- tional. They finished second behind only Northrop at the Lime City Relays and were fifth at sectionals. Senior Eddie Cannon domi- nated both of the hurdle races and was Wayne ' s only quali- fier for the state meet. He was runner-up at the sectional and regional meets in the 300 meter low hurdles. Also a sen- ior, Jim Coyer was injured throughout most of the sea- son, but still managed a sixth place finish at sectionals. Wayne found an almost totally new crop of dash men that provided extra help throughout the year. Senior Robert Cox led the way run- ning the 100, 200 and 400 meter relay and was one of Wayne ' s top two long jump- ers. Wayne ' s other long jumper, freshman Doug ' 39 NINETEENTH NERVOUS (Clockwise from above) Mark Hol- brook; Wes Cochren; Lovell Jackson and Phil Bozarth, Mike Arnold. Brewer, was also a valuable sprinter. Tony Moore and Kendrick Boyd were two of the links in the successful sprint relay. Senior Eric Stoops led the way in the weight events with numerous double victories during the year. He placed fourth in the shot at section- als. Todd Ames, Wayne ' s best in the pole vault, highlighted his season with a second place at the Dayton Invita- tional. James Austin, victori- 140 BREAKDOWN ous at Dayton, won the high jump for many meets. Sophomore Kenny Thomas, clocked a 4:23.1 in the 1600 meters for a second place sectional finish. Freshman Tim Burton ran as the Generals ' number one quarter miler. Roland Ellington and Tom Miller were a powerful one- two punch in the 800 meters, placing fifth and sixth respec- tively in sectionals. Miller was also the senior award winner for track. 141 (Clockwise from below) Jackie Cooper streaks past the hurdles; Robin Johnson kicks up and over; Sybil Perry breaks the tape as usual; Tracy Wright rolls one over; Renita Russell reaches back tor an extra kick. 142 ANYBODY FOR SECONDS? The 1980 girls track team, attempting to capture their second straight state title, fell one short, as the archers of South Side turned the tables on the Generals. The victori- ous Archers were too much for runnerup Wayne to catch. Nevertheless, behind the strength of our outstanding junior Sybil Perry, the girls were honored as the second best team in Indiana. Perry, who has already left a permanent mark in the girls track program, rewrote three more school records and almost single-handedly placed Wayne second at state. She was state champion in the 100 and 400 meter dashes and anchored the 800 meter medley relay team which placed second. Lori Good and Jackie Cooper ran the first two legs of 1 00 meters each, and Robyn Johnson ran the 200 meter third leg with Perry running the remaining 400. Leading the team throughout the year Perry set new standards in the 100, 200, and long jump. She entered the maximum three events in the SAC meet and emerged city champion in all three: the 100, 200, and 400. Wayne ' s trackwomen not only had strength, but also depth. They outdistanced all of their regular season oppo- nents with the lone exception of South Side. They ended the season with a 12-1 mark and third place finishes at the SAC meet and the Northrop Invita- tional. Both times the Gener- als placed behind city rivals South and Northrop. The Generals placed third at the sectional and second at regionals. Perry was cham- pion in both of her individual events at the sectional and regional levels as was the 800 meter medley relay team that she anchored. The 400 meter relay team consisting of Cooper, Good, Kathy Rakes- traw, and Johnson; and the 800 meter relay team of Cooper, Good, Rakestraw, and Lewis, both placed third, only one short of a regional birth. Johnson qualified for regionals with a fourth place at the sectional in the hurdles. Nearly the entire squad will return next year with a tal- ented group of underclass- men that should make the girls track program one of the best in the state for years to come. Freshmen include out- standing sprinter Lori Good who was one of the best in the 1 00 this year and is invaluable in the relays. Cherri Heller set a new school record in the 1600 meter run with a 5:29.6, and Lisa Trainer won several meets in both the 800 and 1600. Right behind them all year was sophomore Debbie Hughes. Also a sophomore, Jackie Cooper will be back in the long jump and in the sprints, along with Perry, Johnson, and Good. She already has two years of expe- rience at the state track meet. Sophomore Dawn Siligmare set school records at 37 ' 4 in the shot put, and 1 007 in the discus, along with being sec- ond on the team to Perry in the 400. 1 43 LOVE STINK! 144 IN TENNIS (counterclockwise from left) Denise Holloway hits a forehand volley; Linda Weber and Julie Peppier take a break during indoor practice; Joan Zimmer- man prepares to ace her opponent with a powerful serve; Natalie Ellis hits a forehand from the baseline.

The girls ' tennis team came out ot its season with one of the better records for girls ' tennis in the history of the school. The entire team played consistently through- out the season against many tough opponents. The team placed fourth in sectionals with the two doubles teams of Linda Weber-Natalie Ellis and Julie Peppier-Joan Zimmer- man both going two rounds before they were eliminated Senior Linda Weber ai : junior Natalie Ellis teamec play doubles only in sectior = competition. During the sea- son they played number one and number two singles. Although the team will lose Linda, Julie, and Joan to grad- uation next year, it still looks very promising with the num- ber two doubles team of soph- omores Ann Trainer and Den- ise Holloway returning. Other good, young talent consisted of junior Lisa Ralph and soph- omores Janet Kirkman, Janice Kirkman, and Erin Flanigan. The entire team played impressively under the guid- ance of the new coach, Don Merkler. Coaching consist- ency has been a problem in recent years, as the Wayne netwomen have had four coaches in the last five years. A season and a half was the longest tenure of any one of them, and another new coach looms on the horizon for next year. 145 Senior Brag MICHAEL D.
