The warrior is unigue in all as- pects of mental and physical develop- ment. With interests in sports, clubs, academics, and community affairs, he built a solid foundation on which his future success could stand. What made the warrior so special? How did he maintain constant control over the respon- sibilities and situa- tions which he faced? All these answers lie within this ac- count of A Day in the Life of A War- rior. 2060756 THE DAWN OF AN ERA, THE DAWN OF A DAY, DEVELOPING NEW CREATIONS THAT PASS BY OUR WAY. In the essense of a new beginning — dawn symbolized newness and a freshness — a chance to do new things and redo old things. Each day provided a chance to grow, taking advantage of all op- portunities and exper- iences. At the dawn of the year, the Warrior kept a clear eye on the infinite possi- bilities for growth which would present themselves as the day wore on. 4 Opening Opening 5 Student ' s lives grow tA «««« ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ } TABLE OF CONTENTS ♦ I X ♦ THEME 2} ♦ OPENING 4 ♦ ACTIVITIES 12J ♦ CLUBS 38 ♦ SPORTS 56 ♦ PEOPLE 82 ♦ ACADEMICS 130 ♦ ADS 150t X INDEX 171 ♦ A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A WARRIOR. . 178t ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ 6 Student Life in 78-79 Student Life 7 i Mumr %m ' Activities played a large part in the warrior ' s social de- velopment.

Don ' t let it be forgot ' In Camelot, the joust scene is an emotional situation involving the death of Sir Lionel (Todd Unsicl er). The chorus. King Arthur (Larry Stoller) and Queen Guenevere (Leann Ehle) are over-come and shocked after Lancelot (Jim Gerardot) defeats three of Camelot ' s best Knights. Sir Sagramore (Tim Amstutz) leads Guenevere (Leann Ehle) to be burned at the stake while the Priest (Becky Niccum) prays for her from the Bible. Lancelot (Jim Gerardot) protects Guenevere (Leann Ehle) as Mordred (Clint Bockelman) discovers his motive for killing the round table. While Dinadan (Ken Brown) and Lionel (Todd Unsicker) stand aside to protect Mordred. 28 i lusical t T The chorus plays an important part in Camelot by telling its story in song to the audience, Wendy Hockemeyer, Kirsten Willinger, Susan Cummins and Yvonne Gerig show emotion as Guenevere (Leann Ehle) is about to be burned. Now that the table is dead, Arthur (Larry Stoller) tells Lancelot (Jim Gerardot) and Guenevere (Leann Ehle) that they must leave Camelot rather than be burned at the stake. In the Lusty Month of May, Brett O ' Neill enters as an old man known as Pellinore, as he rumbles on Guenevere (Leann Ehle) tries to understand what Pellinore is talking about, while the chorus sees him as a humorous sort of man. Camelot, Lerner and Loewe ' s musical adapta- tion of the book THE- ONCE AND FUTURE KING, is the story of a man who dreams of freeing the world of its hostilities and replacing them with love. Rehearsals challenged actors and singers dur- ing the cold winter months. Rehearsals started January 3 and continued through March 16 — open- ing night. For many ac- tors this was their first performance on stage, and for them it was a nerve-racking, but exciting night, as well as a treasure of experi- ence for the whole case. Todd Unsicker sings a solo while the chorus stands in grief as the death of Guenevere approaches. 1usical 29 Swing Choir swings into action Students auditioning for Swing Choir searched for a song to fit their voice and then sang it for Miss Everson. The hardest part — waiting to sing — led to wrecked nerves. Members put long hours into practicing and learning the choreo- graphing designed by Kristen Willinger. The swing choir made its debut at the Bluffton Street Fair placing third in the contest. They performed next at the NISBOVA State contest, receiving a rating of first for their performance.

New image excites band Acquiring new Corps style uniforms provided the band with a new image and resulted in a change in their style of marching. During mid- football season, the fans enjoyed the new march style halftime performances. During basketball season the band moved off the stage and into the bleachers for the last three games. This brought the band closer to the fans and helped create more enthusiasm and spirit for the players. In the future it ' s hoped that the fans and the band will continue to show mutual support for each other and the teams. 4 % Ir ] f I ' i ji J B % fm M ji H l BH l 1 Timothy Amstutz prepares to direct tfie band.

Drill Squad 37 Joining clubs gave the warrior a feeling of belonging. The strong bond be- tween brotherhood and cooperation among fel- low members pleased the warrior. Strong leadership radiated from the officers of the clubs as they worked on club act- ivities throughout the year. Many of the clubs served community groups. The warrior never turned down an opportunity to better his community which In turn appreciated his help. Clubs served as the warrior ' s major social function, and with his involvement — the resulting activities proved beneficial to all. 38 Clubs Division Clubs Division 39 One hundred and eighty-five members ded- icated to serving home and community, partici- pated in the 1978-79 Future Homemakers of America organization.

To commemorate this great event the Woodlan FFA chapter worked diligent- ly throughout the year to express to all people that farming is a noble profession. Many contests were initiated in February during National FFA week. The activities required participation from the entire school. The FFA question- answer game where students could win a chapter pen if they answered an agricultural question correctly gained the chapter re- spect from the student body. These students realized that farming serves as a necessary part of our daily lives. With the second high- 42 FFA est membership in the state of Indiana, the chapter sent many re- presentatives not only into our community but also throughout the state of legislative functions, youth conven- tions, adult conferences and business luncheons where they told the history of the FFA and the importance of farming in our nation. By internationally promoting agriculture and winning numerous awards, Woodlan ' s FFA gained the right to be rated a gold emblem chapter.

The student council played a major roll in the organization of many school functions through- out the year. Homecom- ing, one of their larg- est responsibilities, again ran smoothly and created school spirit. School dances and assem- blies were arranged and conducted by the student council. Honor Night, held at the end of the year to honor outstand- ing students in many areas, was another student council activity. Many times the student council did not receive the recognition they de- served. As the leaders of the student body they played a major roll in the organization of activities often taken for granted. Their hard work and leadership led students for another fine year. 44 Student Council NHS and Medical Career members set goals Medical Careers club: Front Row: Becky Brittingham, Melonie Hackenjos, Gladys Stutzman, Janet Warner.

Whether they become doctors, lawyers, teachers, or business men, each gained the ed- ucational qualities necessary to construct productive lives. hsJPSiSS S I ' ' . ?

Clubs 51 The German club, head- ed by Mr. Holt, has been in existence at Woodlan for many years. The success of the students who participate in this club is shown by the many trips, scholar- ships, and tours over- seas they receive each year. As the new German club sponsor, Mr, Holt was able to tour Germany for two weeks during the school year. After this experience he brought back useful knowledge of foreign customs that he passed on to the members of the German club. This club served as Woodlan ' s like to the outside world.

The Spanish club, headed by Mrs. Bates is a new club with a large membership of bright young Spanish students. For many years students requested that Spanish be added to the foreign language pro- gram. In 1977 the provisions were made, and the language was offered. The program has proved to be successful through the enrollment and activities which the club partakes. Members were eager to learn and succeed in understanding the language of our neighbors to the south in the country of Mexico. 52 Clubs During the year specialty clubs such as Photography and Amateur Radio worked on interest- ing projects throughout the year. Many of our photo- graphers worked diligent- ly on the yearbook as well as the Pow Wow to better their photogra- phic skills. Making homemade radios kept radio students busy as they gained many skills in the field of electronics. Both groups expressed themselves well through- out the year by develop- ing basic skills that can be used in their future lives.

Clubs 55 I ' ve lost some- thing somewhere . . . and that ' s why I ' M writing this: To try and try and yet fail and then to come out and try again. To be ready to win and then lose and go home saying there will be anoth- er game. To gracefully sit on the bench when you ' re used to playing, remembering the time when you got your big chance. To push to the limit and yell to exhaustion to play your best and decide to play even better the next game. To say good game to your opponent and really mean it; to say good game to yourself because you did the best you could. This is what we should strive for; this is what we should live for not only in baseball but in life . . . To try and try and yet fail and then to come out and try again.

The prelude to the 1978 football season faced the varsity play- ers with a challenge. Warning: Woodlan Op- timistic! They took on that challenge, knowing that it would mean they ' d have to give a little more in- dividual effort and work at pulling togeth- er as one team. Seniors composed three-fourths of the varsity squad and they, most of all, felt the need to succeed in both offense and defense, although teamwork was an evident factor. The Warriors were offensive- ly number one in the Bob Herman, QB, goes out for a successful pass, while Bob Krakowski, RB, blocks a Norwell Knight. 58 Varsity Football Triumph; mistakes end at 7-3, Bob Herman, quarterback, runs for another touchdown, as the Warriors win over the Morwell Knights 41-0.

Individuality appear- ed when Dexter Ginger- ich, running back, Stan Hoffman, end, and Tom McMaken, guard, were placed on the ACAC all- conference offensive team. Tom, was also selected for the class A all-state team. Keith Baumert, center, Randy Bridge, tackle. Bob Kra- kowski, running back, and Marc Thompson, tac- kle, were named to the list of honorable mention. Each performance by the Varsity Warriors produced excitement that vibrated through the fans, players and coaches. When a game was lost, it meant dis- appointment for every- one but not giving up. Head coach, Leiand Etzler, summed it up in this way, Losing is not the end of the world ... the sun will come up tomorrow; life will go on ... if you measure success only by what ' s on the score- board, you ' re pretty shallow.

The de- fensive team had six shutouts and allowed only 32 points against nine teams. All 21 men of the freshman football team contributed to their best season, fin- ishing with a record of four wins, three losses and one tie. The 1978-1979 jr. high football season contained much excite- ment. The eighth grade team became the first A.C.A.C. champs for jr. high conferences with a final record of 5-0 and presented their trophy to the school showcase.

Stating factors that influenced runner ' s per- formances, Senior Mark Arnos reported, Running is a pscyhological sport demanding complete con- centration. Speed, tim- ing and strength depend upon this. Weather, location, competition, and physi- cal condition affected runners with physical conditioning as the greatest influence. An inner drive urged runners to do their best for the team and gave cross country members the motivation to keep running during a heavy season.

Volleyball team explodes into action Ending their season with a 25-10 record, the boy ' s volleyball team proved that teamwork was essential to winning. Throughout the season they were the winners of the Heritage Invita- tional, runner-up in con- ference, and fifth in state. Along with what the team achieved, junior, Joe Miller, was honored as the con- ference volleyball play- er of the Northeast Athle- tic Conference. This em- blem of hard work put him as one of the best volleyball players in the state. According to Coach Gay Martin, The team rose above my initial ex- pectations at the begin- ning of the season. The strong points that impressed me most, stated Coach Martin, were their ability to hustle and their desire to win. Their weak point was merely a lack of experience. The team had a total of 19 players, consist- ing of only four past letter winners and two who will be graduating. It took the playing ability of all 19 players to make them the team that they were. Rodney Strautman spikes the ball to keep the opponents from scoring while Timothy Harris and Conn Hermann run to his aid. Volleyball 63 Volleyball champs crush opponents Bump, set, spike, dive, roll, long hard, practices and a lot of bruises combined to create the game of volleyball. With each practice and game, the girls came one step closer to their goal — to become ACAC Champs. On October 16 and 17, the team ' s dream neared reality. By conquering Adams Central and Leo, then crushing Carroll, two straight in the finals, the girls walked through the doors of reigning as ACAC Champ- ions. The reserve squad worked hard on the basic skills. Achieving a record of 5-2, the reserve squad showed great potential. Reserve Volleyball: Front Row: Sharl Krohn, Julie Schlegel, Monica Zelt.

Several games were within an average or less than four points per game. Two games were one-point losses. An- other game saw the War- riors upsetting fifth- ranked Hamilton, 68-67, ending their seven- game winning streak. The A.C.A.C. leading point scorer was senior Brad Kees, with an average of 18.8.

Varsity Football Cheerleaders: Kim Dela- grange, Paula Howell, Sherri Hammon, Denise Myers, Mary Hockemeyer, Kim Hertig, captain. The 1978-1979 cheer- leaders faced a year full of the unexpected. Shortly before the foot- ball season ended, Marsha Coblentz, varsity bas- ketball cheerleader was injured in a painful accident and passed away 45 days later. Many ad- justments had to be made on the various squads, but still, Marsha re- mained in our spirit and, most of all, in our hearts. As the year progressed, the cheerleaders, student body, and faculty realized that pulling together as one whole school was es- Reserve Cheerleaders: Debbie Busick, Karen Kees, Jana Hamm, VIckee Bergman. •S- ' - (SBSSS.-EeH Freshman Cheerleaders: Karen Kees, Lisa Szajna, Kris Kees, Fay Yoder, Shari Shurg. sential and being a little less critical of each other would make the year run smoothly. Mr. Donald Myers, advisor, said, This year was different from other years for several reasons; 1. the will- ingness to understand others played an impor- tant part, 2. moving Eighth Grade Cheerleaders: Linda Shaheen, Colleen Alles, Cheryl Sweet, Jill Miller, Jan Albrecht. Cheering: never give up hope. the student body (cheer block) to their own private area, and 3. getting signs up for most every athletic event that took place. All 20 cheerleaders spent much time work- ing on cheers and build- ing school spirit. Each girl gave her individual talents to make it a memorable year.

' «H0M { ,.---?i - ' k An environment filled with joy, ten- sion, love and con- fusion forced the warrior to adjust to many situations. During his aca- demic day his char- acter changed as he related to a vari- ety of individuals who made-up his tribe. Expressing and exchanging ideas — casually with stu- dents and intellec- tually with faculty — demonstrated his ver- satility and person- al control over any situation he encoun- tered. These people as- sisted in telling his story. 82 People Division People Division 83 s «l As seniors we ' ve come far, |3ut we have farther to go as we leave school and tackle the world. - j,_ Remember when we signed yearbooks and put ' 79 after our names? We eagerly looked forward to the day whe that magic number would pop up on the calendar. It did, and now we ' re seniorsL Think back to seventh gradqj..we were a conglomeration of students from Harlan, Milan Center, and Woodburn Elementary — all meeting for the first time and spending the year getting acquainted. In eighth grade we felt morelcomfortable — knowing the score. Mr. Amstutz plotted ways to drive ' us crazy by assigning the insect and leaf collections. What looked I ike; lots of work turned out to be lots of fun. Mr. Myers tried to get the bo ls together for what we called a basketball team. He must have known wh t he was doing because our boys ' basketball team ended the season with a 1-2-8 record. Finally making it to high school, as freshmen, we thought we owned the world. During Class Tourney the Freshmen Fuzz beat the Sophomore 76 ' ers. Although we thought we had tlje tourney wrapped up, we lost to the Junior Gypsies. Apparently we had more kicking power than dribbling oower because the football team ended the s son with a 6-2 record while the basketball team recorded a 3-13 seasoni Winning the Spirit Chain gave us reassurance that the class led the school iln spirit. As summer approached the fresh- man class sent Diana Steury and Dexter Glngerich to Woodburn Days. ' ' : ' Suddenly, we were sophomores. For the first time the girls had a basketball team. They made a good showing, ending the season 3-8. Ordering class rings was an important event filled with big decisions, such as picking ring de- sign and stone color. That summer Regina Gerig and Stan Hoffman represented the sophomore class in Woodburn Days. As our junior year arrived we realized it was the next to last year. It re- sulted in many frustrations. Because of environmental obstacles, many of the annual activities had to be cancelled. It snowed and snowed; then it snowed some more. The Blizzard of ' 78 kept many of us snowbound for a week. This hardship was followed by an energy crisis which resulted in heat cut-backs. As the snow melted, the rivers and streams rose, and,, we had floods. Inspite of these difficulties, Jackie Hirsch made the ACAC All Conference Basketball team. As May arrived, the atmosphere of Ceruties jumped with activity as class members and guests feasted and danced on Prom Night — May 19. Among girls dressed in long dresses and boys dressed in tuxedoes, sophomore Sharice Foss stunned spectators when she wore a tuxedo instead of the traditional long gown. During intermission Larry Stolier and Regina Gerig were crowned King and Queen. Their court — Kim Walton, Debby Boyle, Tab Bockelman and Keith Baumert — surrounded them as ' .flasbulbs sparkled. As our senior year began, we found ourselves head haunchos. Many classmates graduated in February, leaving the rest of us to carry on the class traditions through May. As seniors we strived to achieve per- sonal goals and recognition for the school. The football team, including 22 seniors, honored the school by being named runners-up in the ACAC Con- ference. During Homecoming and Spirit Week, senior girls took the honors in the first annual Powder Puff Game. Halftime at the Homecoming game found Regina Gerig crowned queen, with seniors Kim Walton and Brenda Yoder as runners-up. Basketball season ended with a 4-16 season, with Brad Kees named as the ACAC leading scorer while the Girls ' Volleyball team became ACAC champs. Seniors continued to amass honors by upsetting the freshmen, 46-44 in the Class Tourney. As spring approached so did senioritis and thoughts of graduation. We knew we ' d come a long way in our days as Warriors, but we knew, too, that those days were just a beginning. PO ' W ' !

In every way to everyone . . . Who is a friend to you ... To show appreciation by . . . Returning kindly deeds . . . And being quite concerned about . . . The other person ' s needs ... By being honest and sincere . . . Dependable and fair . . . And thereby letting it be known . . . How much you really care . . . Because the path of friendship ... A path that never bends ... A path that does not rise or fall . . . And one that never ends . . . And whether joy or tragedy ... Is Knocking of the door . . . The friendship that is faithful will ... Endure for evermore. lemorial 105 Brian Albrecht Paula Amstutz Timothy Amstutz Todd Anderson Jeanne Arnos Dennis Badders Cynthia Banker Michael Barrack Michael Beachy Vicki Becker Karen Bertsche Ellen Bledsoe Clint Bockelman Caria Brames Mary Brandenberger Mark Brenneke Jane Brenneman Brett Brown Robert Brown Cindy Buchan Karen Busche Laura Busche Joe Byerley Marsha Coblentz Barry Coe Daniel Cummins Denise Derek Rolana Dorsey Susan Duncan Denise Eicher We are almost there It seems like only yesterday that we searched for lockers, classes and friends.

Much of his day con- sisted of books, tests, grades, and responsibilities to- ward class work to which he felt a deep dedication. Academics gave the warrior a sense of scholastic achieve- ment. Along with this came the devel- opment of his mind and character through involvement in many areas related to learn- ing. Using what he had learned in his high school years, the warrior set long term goals for himself. After realizing that to meet these goals he needed a strong background in educa- tion, he spent time expressing the true value of scholarship to his people. 130 Academics Division Academics Division 131 Hamming it up, Jane Sullivan delivers another stinging speech on woman ' s rights.

Writ- ing checks was a new experience, and students took advantage of it to help them in later life.

As a last humanitarian touch the biology stu- dents decided to pre- serve the rest of the hamsters body by freez- ing it.

Ear- ly in the year, in Chem- istry II class, while working with a Bunsen burner, Dave Emenhiser set his hair on fire. Some experiments took students several tries before they achieved favorable results, such as Tim Amstutz ' s and Melissa Pinney ' s six at- tempts before they pro- duced gas over water in an inverted flask.

Tom panted over photography. Lynne grabbed the camera. Sheryl yelled, Get me action pix. Denise D, sank to her knees in anticipated exhaustion. Denise E. demanded headlines. Scott left his mark behind as he rode off at midterm. Arriving late, Jim inquired, Who me? V v Jane held on for dear life. Becky made us laugh. Lisa kept her fingers in the cake. Dave bit the bullet while redoing layouts. Tammie fed us gourmet delights. Mrs. S. played warden and den mother. Amid deadline drags and staff blues, we conquered the challenge to perpetuate and to produce this publication. Look to children for tomorrow ' s inspiration. A glimpse of the past with Arrow staff r y ? ? 177 As the year draws to a close and work on this book is finished, we wish to remember the special people who have helped us throughout the year. Our largest thanks goes to the Arrow staff who put in many long hours of hard work and who en- dured the good times and the hard times. We couldn ' t have done this book without all of you. Specifically we ' d like to thank Tom Koeneman, Lynne Shattuck and Mike Barrack for their photographic efforts. Jim Gerardot ' s and Larry Stoller ' s help on the division pages was invaluable, and thanks to Sheryl Koch for two years hard work on the sports pages. Another person who deserves thanks is Becky Niccum whose sense of humor kept us laughing when we wanted to cry. We applaud Dave Coleman and Scott Delagrange for their artistic designs, Lisa Messmann for her efficiency and Jane Brenneman for her de- termination to finish. Tammie Gorrell ' s enthusiasm and efforts were special. Thanks to the Dynamic Duo — Denise Eicher and Denise Derek — for their dependable resource work. We would like to extend our thanks to Roberts Photography Studio, Mr. James Arthur, Mr. Jerry Bush, Mr. Keith Greathouse, and Mr. Keith Pierson for all of their help and support throughout the year. We extend our deepest thanks to a person who has worked to no end, Mrs. Jane Sullivan. We love you, MOM, and we will always remember your help. Most of all thanks to all of you for being yourselves and making our job easier. LeAnn Ehle Regina Gerig EDITORS 178 A Day In The Life Of A Warrior A Day In The Life Of A Warriot 179 .. Our lives can be measured in time, and time in our lives can be reduced to the minutes and hours of a day. Each day of our lives is a diamond, reflecting the quality of the time we spend and the quantity of activities we pursue. We are a reflection of how we spend our time — reflecting the interests, desires, goals and dreams we seek. Symbolically a warrior is the personification of all who battle time, pretending it isn ' t passing, wishing it would pass faster, wanting it to stand still. Each day we experience all these feelings, but in spite of our wishes time disregards any monentary desires. From morning to night we caught-up in the passage of time, measuring our lives in daily doses. JOSTsNS Ys lUSOCK COHRdNY
