Just A Note . . . I would like to begin by thanking Mrs. Karen Ritter. The original group of students that sat in N121 on the first day of school was simply a bunch of non-journalistic kids. By semester, Mrs. Ritter's patience and knowledge had molded, shaped, and challenged us into a staff, a group of responsible people that could work for and with each other. But, the responsibility did come with time. Missed deadlines, deleted copy and pictures, and the dreaded Do this page over, were just a few things that transformed us. The theme we chose for the book was designed to reflect the inner positive feelings and fears of the students this year. We are the future is a statement that we developed in several different ways. We wanted to prove that everything done in life as well as school was a step toward the future. This yearbook's purpose is to present the accomplishments, challenges, and mistakes of the year, a year that helps build the future. As Mrs. Ritter would say, the book is not a scrapbook for just the popular people. Our goal was to include everyone, at least to the best of our ability. Equal coverage was a major concern. Everyday that we worked together we grew and matured a little more. We learned to respect each other's property, and above all, personal space and freedom. 1 can't begin to describe the different personalities that creat- ed the staff. We had loners. Noelle was the only staffer who could write a story and headline while listening to her Walkman on full blast. And then there was the cheerful people. Robbye always has a smile, no matter how bad things got. Robyn never let anything bother her. She always made her deadlines, and I envy her calm nature. I was always the one to panic. Spa z became my eternal nickname. One of my favorite people to argue with is Lisa Locke, the senior editor. It took us a month to convince Lisa that the publishing company would not fit that copy into that small space just because she liked it that way. There were several times when we wanted to strangle each other, but I think our banquet at Circus made us all realize how special this year has been. The one person I will be forever grateful to is Rae Rabe, my assistant editor. It's funny how I've always referred to Rae as my assistant editor, but she really was my right arm. She was always there to push me one step further. At times, she had to scream at me, hit me, or threaten to hide my entire file drawer, but she managed to inspire me every time. Rae was announced Editor-in-chief for next year, and I wish her all the luck in the world. She's a true friend, and I was lucky and blessed to have her work beside me. Thanks Rae. To the students of Elsik, 1 hope you will see the work and energy that we put into this yearbook. We did it for you, and we hope that you like it. A quote from our very special adviser can really tie it all together: It's the best journalistic yearbook at Elsik to make budget. Finally, I'd like to wish everyone the best of luck. To the class of '84, I hope this is a treasure you will cherish The 950 copies of the Rumblings were printed by Henington Publishing Company in Wolfe City, Texas. The paper is 80 lb. enamel. The cover is quarter-bound and containsshoegrain with a school designed silkscreen logo, [leadlines are 36 and 24 point Palatino Bold. Body copy is 10 point and captions are 8 point bold. Various organization and individual portraits were made by Clayton Teat, Visual Sports Productions, Kay Productions, and staff photographers. always. The memories will be here when you need them in years to come. Sincerely, Misty M. Bogle Editor-in-chief, Rumblings '84 A special thanks to the following people for their contributions: Mrs Keeling, for her help and never ending support; I.ois Niemann and Ray Branch our representatives from Henington Brian Reeves for his pictures from Antigone, Coach Toulmin and Lia Parke for their sports pictures, Chris Ayres for his pictures from the musica!
